Can someone please explain to me how the weeks are going by so fast? It feels like my life literally jumps from Friday to Wednesday in the blink of an eye and I can’t figure out where the time is going. It’s the weirdest feeling since all my days look exactly the same… wake up, drink coffee, eat, edit pictures, eat, watch tv, eat, go to bed, repeat. I should probably start including a daily walk in that list, but baby steps. At least I’m taking my Vitamin D, right?

I had really high hopes for all this mandatory alone time. I was planning on writing and scheduling a month’s worth of blog posts, I was going to finally tone my arms (a goal of mine since high school), I was determined to finish decorating my apartment and take daily #quarantineootd pics... But somewhere between the first stay at home order and now, I lost the motivation. It’s just so much easier to be lazy when the entire world is on hold. There’s nothing to miss out on, no upcoming vacation plans, no scheduled coffee dates, no pressure -- period. On the flip side, I’m basically out of work with no unemployment eligibility, but that’s a different conversation.

As awful as this entire situation is though, I read a great article on how people who suffer with anxiety are actually feeling much better right now and I couldn’t help but agree just a little bit. How many times have we wished the world would just slow down so we could catch our breath? Well, wish granted in the most unfortunate of ways. I can only hope the world will get back to its normal state as quickly as possible, but until then, maybe the best thing we can do is take the time to breathe because the second the world opens back up, I guarantee there will be a small part in so many of us that longs for the quiet time.
