Finding Positives

I am entering my fourth week of working from home now and thought I’d share my running list of positive things that are happening during this time. It is of course a time filled with anxiety and negative thoughts, so I am doing my best to focus on the good and hoped it might help someone else out there. I normally write 3 things I am grateful for every morning but have been writing this extra list these days to stay sane.

• more walks in nature

• more time with my dog Marty

• learning how to play new card games (Rummy, crazy eight, gin)

• proving to my superiors that I can effectively work from home

• organizing multiple rooms and closets

• deep cleaning my bathroom, to the point of making my shower floor a shade lighter

• reorganizing furniture for a better flow

• pollution is going down

• spending less money and therefore saving more money

• spending time with family

• connecting with family and friends more than ever

• appreciating spring blooms more than ever
