We have all been cooped up for quite some time which seemed like a mini vacation, until you run out of things to do, you have no reason to get ready for the day, and you binge watch the news, makes for a pretty depressing day. I know, being a creative and extroverted optimistic, my need for freedom and relationship with the world is beginning to stifle my generally upbeat mood. This week I finally realized that life has not stopped, if just requires a pivot and a little day to day routine change to adjust to our new environment. In this post, I am sharing several ways I have made minor adjustments and mastered new skills to maintain the lifestyle I once took for granted.
Everyone says that when this is through, we are all going to need some serious beauty services. Shabby hair, overgrown nails, bushy brows, and the list goes on.
