As I look back on the last few weeks as I am recovering from Covid I am so glad that less is more has been the way I have been living. Unable to help around the house is a tough one for me but because we declutter there was little for the family to do while they were also on quarantine but with no symptoms. Momma took them all and while I am feeling much better I am still very exhausted and having less stuff to worry about is a god send.

Have you ever just had enough and then you end up in a funk. Well, I did and I stayed away from the podcast so my negative energy didn't spill into you all. I had a big week of nothing which lead to massive cleaning and reorganizing to avoid what was going on in the world and my head. Then I pulled my big girl pants on and some loud music to get myself back to normal. Things can get hard but we can't stay in the that state too long and it's not easy to get out sometimes. We need to support one another and put more joyful things into our lives. Happy Thanksgiving

I have been feeling overwhelmed with world events so I decided to go back to the basics and do somethings that spark joy.
