dual personalities

Well, starting today, I’m on the working-from-home squad. I’m not dreading it. In fact, I’m making a mental list of projects to work on, drawers to clean out, online workouts to do, and books to read. I’m going to try to take advantage of this time. Of course, I’ll have work to do, conference calls, and social media posts to write. But, I do expect some productivity of a more personal nature, as well.

I’m going to break my day up a la Hugh Grant in About a Boy. And no need to carefully  dishevel my hair as I’ll be sticking strictly to daytime loungewear for the next few weeks.

Look at all of these wonderful cross-stitch patterns to choose from–I’ve got plenty of things that I’m currently working on–but it’s fun to think about starting something new, too!

The library is closed–but they have ebooks available.

I hope people use this time constructively. Perhaps millennials will use this time to meditate on life and what it means, and what they are going to do with their wild and precious lives.

This is probably wishful thinking.

Dreams are wishful thinking. Children playing at being grown-up is wishful thinking. Interplanetary travel is wishful thinking.

Sometimes wishing is the wings the truth comes true on.

Sometimes the truth is what sets us wishing for it.
