Hi guys and what a week, eh? First Haiti then Afghanistan. Also the doomsday climate change report and rising covid cases. And personally there’s been the ongoing fires and smoky days, and I’ve been dealing with a cold (cough but no fever), which I unfortunately passed onto Emi (it’s her first cold ever and man it’s been brutal—hello multiple wake-ups in the middle of the night). Also I’ve been dealing with the anxiety of wondering if its covid. I got tested this week and thankfully it’s not (it’s probably that RSV going around now). I used my county health system to get a free covid test though it took a couple days for the results. I purchased some at home covid tests just in case I have another scare.
TBH I feel rather numb about all that’s going on right now. And dare I say, I feel a bit hopeless as well. My already written reviews are going to be published once a week as scheduled, but currently I haven’t felt like writing much nor engaging on social media (I mean I’m still on there out of habit but I’m not really enjoying it at all). I’m sure all these feelings have something to do with the inordinate amount of time spent doom-scrolling this week while feeling sick. Anyway if any of you guys have tips on getting out of this funk, I’d greatly appreciate it ❤️
