I really enjoyed your journey from relaxation to, for lack of a better term, 'circle walking' 'day filling' to finding purpose again. May your writing continue to provide joy for your heart and peace for your soul.Sharon Heagyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17026362425515759048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-57760153536165878612020-05-24T19:41:00.698-07:002020-05-24T19:41:00.698-07:00Thanks for sharing your Covid-19 journey, Lynn. I ...Thanks for sharing your Covid-19 journey, Lynn. I can relate to catching up on a number of projects, including house cleaning and quilting--working on finishing three large quilts that had been "in progress" for some time. As for writing, I was able to spend greater times in the morning without outside errands or appointments-so I was grateful for that. God bless you as you continue your journey.Sandi Somershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03097011585168805837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-3324897467082506382020-05-18T20:53:48.935-07:002020-05-18T20:53:48.935-07:00Sharon, thanks for sharing your life and role of c...Sharon, thanks for sharing your life and role of caregiver here.

In part this is due to my caregiving role, which causes me to adjust to and work around my husband's needs and schedule. I need to learn new ways to maximize “the cracks of time I have."<br /><br />I am so thankful and happy Hank is home, rather than being in hospital or a care facility where visiting might be forbidden. The Norwegian is here, safely at home with me, and we are, by the grace of God, managing. “Watching,” or in Hank’s case recently, listening to TV together in the evening, we appreciate each other’s company. He has suffered another bump in the road--an eye stroke in his better eye. <br /><br />We/I try to get to bed earlier, so that I am rested enough to do my morning writing, reading, and praying before my husband’s day begins. I pray for wisdom, guidance and strength for both of us. Thanks for sharing your experience, Lynn, and the lessons you’ve learned about redeeming the time. Blessings.

I think a big part of our paralysis is the shock of all that's happened, and the fact that we have no template for this experience. I agree that sudden deadlines galvanize us! I've had one or two that gave me purposeful direction!

I'm sure the cleaning, cooking, and binge watching cycles seem to be common! They say that gardening is now the new 'baking'...! As a long time Star Trek fan, what better show to watch! (My opinion!) But I also get the feeling of being tired of TV... Soon, I hope, we will be able to hug those grandkids again!Tracy Krausshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05066853243062725525noreply@blogger.com
