Onto the last week of April! This month weirdly flew by, haha. I’m okay with it. Michigan was extended to May 15 though, and I see it being extended even further. All of my favorite May things are cancelled… no Cinco, no Tulip Time, a vacation to Florida was cancelled, and now I’m thinking Nashville at the end of the month is cancelled too. I just feel all the feels right now, lol. Sometimes I just randomly burst into tears, other days I’m laughing and crushing it. I don’t know. This weekend was fine, and not fine, and then fine. I honestly think I’m starting to go a little crazy. Like I think very weird thoughts, time passes by and I’m not sure where it went, it’s like I’m in a weird black hole, haha. I don’t know. Just hanging tight at this point and trying to stay sane. 🤣

Well, another weekend in the books! This one really sucked, and then it was okay, and then it kind of sucked again. Hahaha, I think maybe that’s just the new normal in this process. My emotions are just all over the place. But I’m surviving! But yeah, this weekend… I started (and finished) Tiger King. WTF. Went for a run along the Grand River. Got takeout from Donkey, which was so good. You really appreciate a meal out once you don’t really dine out anymore, that’s for sure! Drank a marg + lots of wine. Watched 3 different movies. Got UberEats breakfast… was weirdly craving a chocolate chip pancake, lol. Took Winny for a walk. Got groceries, but ended up shattering two bottles of wine that fell through a plastic bag and ruined (these) sneakers… don’t worry, I already ordered a new pair. 🤣 But yeah, that was my weekend. Exciting stuff over here, y’all!

Hiiii there! Man, I’m wishing I could transport myself back to this weather right now. These photos were taken a couple of weeks ago when it was like 65º outside and perfect. This week has STUNK weather-wise. It’s Thursday, right? Yeah, I literally haven’t left the apartment since SUNDAY. Hahaha, oh my gosh. Normally I’ve been getting out for runs or to drive to a park, and I haven’t left the apartment because this snow is depressing me. Thankfully the forecast looks a little more spring-friendly, because I’m ready to get outside for a few minutes here. Going a little stir-crazy! 🤪

Ahhh, two of my favorite things… golden hour and the Grand River. I’ve been spending so much time down by the water recently, because I’ve taken up running outside. So my loop is to hit the Blue Bridge and run along the path and I honestly forgot how much I love it down here. I went to college right downtown and lived a block away, but had to park across the river (because it was 10x cheaper, haha) so I’d ride my Razor scooter across the bridge whenever I’d have to get to and from my car. Plus, I’ve taken so many pictures for the blog down here. I just have so many memories along this river… it’s just good to be reminded of that every time I’m out running or getting a walk in. Brings me a little peace!

Hi there! Onto Thursday. Inching closer and closer to the weekend… woo! Work just announced we can take a half day tomorrow for the holiday weekend, so I’m already looking forward to logging off for a mental break. This week was a little tougher to get through, but I’m doing okay. Still continuing to focus on all the things that normally bring me joy… like exercising, cooking, wine, blogging, New Girl, etc. A routine honestly does help to keep the days chugging along quickly. Not that I ever want time to pass by fast when I’m young, but I just really hate being quarantined. I miss my friends, plans, travels, and meals out. Michigan was just officially extended to April 30 (which we were all expecting anyway) but I really really really hope that May looks a little different. Even if it’s not back to normal, I just want to get a little closer to it.

Onto a new week! I feel like April is going by… dare I say, kind of fast? I think it’s honestly because all of my days blur together now, lol. I pretty much do the same thing every day with the same routine. Oh well, at least I’m consistent right now. I’ve been focusing a lot on the “controllables”, like meal-planning, cooking healthy, tracking my points, exercising, cleaning, organizing, tackling some “quarantine” projects like reorganizing old external hard-drives, etc. along with taking time to relax, watch New Girl, drink lots of wine, just listen to music, nap, think, stare out the window. 😂 But blogging has been a good way to sort of keep my mind busy. It forces me to get dressed and go outside (in desolate places, haha), and then between planning outfits, taking photos, editing, writing, etc., it’s definitely a welcome distraction right now.
