It's almost the end of my fifth week in quarantine. A lot has changed and yet not much has at the same time. I know a lot of people are bored and depressed, but I feel like I'm staying pretty busy. I'm glad for all I have accomplished, even if I wish I had accomplished more. I guess every day is a new opportunity. Oh and I absolutely love drinking wine with lunch every day.
so
Here's where I am:
Listening to:
my friend talk about his Serbian friend in a voicemail.
Also

Remembering:
life before corona and being shocked at how much has changed.
Planning:
on making Doubletree chocolate chip walnut cookies. YUM!
Anxious about:

Quarantine Notes:
I left you on Day 4. I can't remember all that has happened, but here's the gist:
• 2 weeks turned into 7. How much longer will it continue?
• I've been so lucky to continue to receive a paycheck.
• I spent two weeks crying and upset about the loss of a friend. We are still on speaking terms but we don't speak much. My heart still breaks when I think of how close we were.
• Him pulling away brought me closer to another friend.
• And I met two other people too that I've spent a good bit of time getting to know.
• We've had 2 happy hours in 4 weeks. One lasted 6 hours while the other was just over an hour and a half. It was nice spending time with friends in a slightly different way than normal.
• I've listed almost 100 items on Poshmark.
• I emptied 3 boxes of books.
• I'm in the process of getting rid of 2 boxes of "stuff" (clothes, scrapbook paper and photo paper, stickers, books, decorations).
• I painted my fingernails purple. I can never have painted nails because of my job, so it's been fun to do something a little different.
• I've been working on braiding my hair and changing things up.
• I lost 5 pounds and I've been eating healthier/more variety.
