Any new recipes you have been trying while self-isolating? I have been enjoying baking muffins with my daughter. Her favorite right now is strawberries.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Sadly this baby is making me crave chocolate all the time, which isn't great for trying to watch my weight.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

On this rainy Monday, I hope everyone is doing well. Today is going to be an admin day for me, no crazy new projects, and hoping I can spend more time on my watercolor art. Nothing like an overcast day to make me want to cuddle up with a blanket and watch the raindrops. It’s soothing to me - what are your plans for this rainy day?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Lol I know it is Saturday, but with staying home all the time with the kids, the days run together so easily. Thank goodness for my phone that tells me in the morning, or I would be losing it more. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With a haze of days blending, productivity can fall to the wayside - or odd hours. My insomnia has gotten worse, and so most of my planning and project work has shifted to the late hours of the evening into early morning sometimes.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Anyone else's mental capacity for work and time management shifted or feel off-kilter? How are you handling this change?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Fridays are a wonderful way to relax and look back on the simple joys of the week. I am so glad for the time I am getting to spend with my kids while preparing for their sibling arrives in a few months. Abby is such a big helper, and William follows me and my husband around like a little copy cat. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I had missed a lot with them out of the house most of the day for school, and while it makes our days more complicated, I love my kids all the more. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It’s a good day to be happy! What do you say we take a break from all the craziness around us? Let’s stop focusing on all the mayhem in the world and even the chaos in our own lives. If we can’t have anything else, why not just one day? Because today, well, it’s a good day to be happy!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Everyone has unique things that make them happy. Take a few minutes and think about a few of yours. What can you do to add some extra cheer to your day? Because it’s a good day to be happy.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are a few of my ideas that I came up with:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Take a break from most social media. I’m going to take a break from surfing my feed today because it has been making my anxiety a bit worse (on top of nest instincts kicking in).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Since the kiddos are home (all the time now lol), I think this calls for a fun day of arts and crafts.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- Today I’m going to take some time for me (been feeling a little blah lately). I’m going to take a shower that is longer than five minutes without rushing to get out. Maybe I’ll even paint my nails pamper myself a little.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- I might doodle or sketch some to relax. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So what are your plans for today? Because it’s a good day to be happy!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Life is fragile, you never know what can happen in the future. Especially in such an uncertain time for a lot of reasons.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don't live in fear and depression. Instead, choose to live a life that you love. Choose one that you can look back on and have no regrets.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It’s okay to take a day off and just not be productive. Some days are just blah off days where you lay in bed and just be. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Take time to just be. Being unproductive is a good thing when you need a brake. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Tomorrow can be a productive day instead. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Digital watercolor has been a creative outlet of mine for the past year, and it honestly has been a great way for me to de-stress and take a little time to myself. Between all my client projects and the insanity of motherhood and house renovation, being creative for myself has been a little hard.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That is why I am pushing myself each day to take 15 minutes of time just to doodle, color sketch, or finish designs that are just for me.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
No pressure of deadlines or making a product for sale. Just something for the fun of it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What is something you do for pure joy and creativity? Share it down below, and take someone who you think needs a little creative boost! Mental health and happiness are important to a well-rested and happy body.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Motherhood can be described by so many moments and words. It all comes down to one word for me - love. Unconditional love from the first moments you realize you a bringing this precious new life into this word. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have two wonderful children that I get to nurture and cherish every day, with a third on the way. But not everyone is as fortunate. A mother isn’t just a person you can see has children. There are those who have lost their little angels. There are women who have sadly outlived their children. Other women have given their child a start at a better life, with another family. And there are those who can’t have children.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This does not make any of them less of a mother. Because a mother isn’t only defined by the act of birth or biological relation. It is a relationship of love.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So take today to share that love back. With a hug, heartfelt words or just spending time together. Love doesn’t have to be a loud action. It can be found in the stillness of a moment. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Sometime we do fun and impulsive things during a time of stress and isolation. My current mood has been to make a visual change to help make me happy when I see myself in the mirror in the morning. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So I dyed my hair purple (temporarily - I will wash out in 2 months). And I’m happy. Not because changing my hair filled a void, but it’s pretty and a nice change. Something positive to focus on. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have you made any changes or thought about doing something similar? Comment below, I’d love to hear what you are thinking of!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Staying motivated and productive is hard sometimes. Especially when working from home, and never really leaving your home. Some mornings, I'll get up and start the day, only to feel exhausted and unmotivated two hours later. And that is okay!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Taking breaks and pacing yourself in your daily tasks is important. As is listening to your body. When you get down, take a nap or a walk and just relax. You don't have to do everything all-at-once and you can always ask for help.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And it's even okay to have days where you don't really accomplish more than just getting up and covering the basics. Rest and mental health are things you need to budget into your push to be productive.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What is your favorite de-stress thing to do during this isolation?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Time to Get a Little Personal! How is your week going? To be honest, I feel like a juggler at carnival right now - so much going on. And in such a much more confined place now too.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For those of you who don't know me, I am Rebekah, the designer, and artist behind Grace + Company Designs.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have two wonderful children with my husband and it's been a crazy time since finding out we are expecting our third in at the end of July/Early August. We have a hectic life, with me juggling TWO creative businesses - while being a work-at-home mom and (now/again) homeschooling my kids to keep them on track with the help of online resources and zoom calls. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, even with this pandemic disrupting normal life and routines, I will strive to be more consistent, more authentic, and keep sharing my passion and drive for design - in this new normal. Comment below what you love most about your business! I’d love to get to know other creatives and see how awesome all are! Or tag a friend who’s business needs some love and engagement, and we can bring some joy to their day!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I just wanted to share some At-Home Self-Care Tips during Quarantine.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
#1: Purge your makeup drawer and clean your brushes.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Take the time right now, with the extra in your routine and week to do a little spring cleaning. There’s never been a better time for this, so sort through that makeup drawer or bag, and get rid of all the impulse purchases you’ve ignored for months (or years!). It is also a good idea to check the dates on your items such as mascara and lip products.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
#2: Shed that winter skin, but don't forget the SPF.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
More time at home means more time to work on a summer glow, even if the beaches are closed. Take a walk or just sit out and enjoy the nice spring weather. Just don't forget an SPF lotion or sunscreen. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
#3: Perfect your skincare routine.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Take care of each morning, even if you aren't going to be seen by anyone. Now is the time to have a dedicated routine or even start something new if you have never done this before.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Happy Monday to everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. Hard to believe it is now May! Time is going by so fast these days.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A day in my life lately is a bit laxer, due to everyone being home, so most days are extended into PJ days or very comfy clothes. As I get farther along in my pregnancy, pants honestly are becoming a daily battle. Leggings or even borrowing my husband's PJ bottoms is an easy go-to, where I don't have to stress over what is or isn't fitting. I am showing so much sooner this time around and it is a big change.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Cleaning and organizing is a daily struggle with everyone home. It is like that saying of trying to brush your teeth while eating an Oreo.... there is always something getting messed up, cluttered, or just lived-in while you are trying to make life a little bit more neat - with so many people around ALL the time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How are you handling life during social distancing? Fin ding you cook more, shop online way too much or just spend all day on the sofa with the tv on binging shows?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Sundays are a nice chill day for me, to spend time just pampering myself a little bit more. What are your plans for the day?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I mean to make some muffins and enjoy a nice cup of tea while catching up on one of my books. Kiddos might invade but I enjoy the cuddles so much.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Self-Love and Self-Care are very important. This is something I have been struggling with for a while, not massively but those dark little thoughts like to creep in.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Small things like thinking "I'm a mess today," when I don't get dressed or do anything to my hair. Or talking myself out of outfits, because "I am not cute enough to pull that off".⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Thankfully my husband takes the time to tell me I am wrong. And to remind me each day how beautiful I look, regardless if I spend all day in my PJs, or actually took the time to do my hair and put on some light make-up that day.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Not to say those things make me look better, just taking the time to care for myself helps me realize my self-worth a little more. So I have been challenging myself to every day after getting - to always do my skin-care routine, and maybe put on a little make-up, as well as getting a new outfit on and taking to time to eat a small breakfast to start my day off right.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Small steps, but during this time of being so isolated, a bit of normalcy helps my mental health.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What are some of the things you have been doing to motivate yourself daily?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It's Friday! If you are like me, I like to treat myself at the end of the week a little. Nothing much, just a little thing here or there. Sometimes the family focus on a special meal, a movie snuggle fest, or just a group quiet nap in the middle of the day.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have lost count of what week this is...it's the end of month 2 maybe? I think? It's all blending together, plus keeping my weeks of pregnancy straight while having a home reno project and getting ready for little one #3 - it's a crazy mess of information.⁠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have been working to make weekends feel separate from the rest fo the week when every day around here is mostly the same routine here. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I keep to a sort of schedule, we are trying to stick to the routine the kids have been keeping at school (roughly). And then also throwing in practical ways to learn and be a family around the house.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⁠.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We have been watching less live TV and shifted to classic movies and older tv shows instead. We've been introducing the kids to some of our childhood favorites. Toy Story, Jumanji, TMNT (the classics on VHS), and the Magic School Bus is a fan favorite of the kids.. with my husband's wall of movies, we have yet to run out of entertainment.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⁠.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Baking time has been fun. Getting Abby involved with making muffins and pancakes has been a blast. She loves being a little helper with gathering ingredients and helping mix. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⁠.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Because I have been more tired further into this pregnancy, my husband has been treating me to takeout meals and other snacks to nibble on! During the week I try and cook, but some times, it is a lot and my husband has enjoyed spoiling me with meals at home (since he doesn't cook many things besides microwavable items). my favorite has been the buy-one, take-one offer from Olive Garden, and it was ah-ma-zing! We split both options and it makes for four meals! 😋⁠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⁠.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let me know in the comments: what are some fun things you're doing to distinguish your weekends from your weekdays?👇🏻

My TO-DO List today:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- count your blessings⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- practice kindness⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- let go of what I can't control⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- listen to my heart⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- be productive yet calm⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
- just breathe⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What's on your list for the day? Don't forget to breathe and know that you are not alone.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Nearly... the Weekend.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Happy Monday!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sometimes as a small business owner, your sense of self gets lost with all the things you have to juggle. I am right there with you, and you know what? You are what matters!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You are the most important part of your business because you are at it, heart and soul. Don't let life and others discourage you! Take time to relax and recharge!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Life has been hectic for me, and I normally pile too much on myself - but I have been getting better. Using schedulers, planners, and prioritizing my to-do lists have gone a long way for me to hand off some of the stress. With as much as I give of myself, I daily stop to remind myself to take time for ME!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Raise your hand if you struggle with this, and then COMMENT below with what part of your business stress you out the most. Mine is striving to finish everything in a single day, sometimes at the expense of my personal happiness and time with my family. But I have some amazing friends to help remind me that three things a day is a great accomplishment. Let me and others encourage and uplift you from your struggles. You don't have to be alone!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I hope you are having a great weekend, and take time to enjoy the day and relax. With all this change in routine, it can be hard to separate home and work, personal from family. Even if it is only for 10-15 minutes, just take time for some self-care to refresh your mind and spirit for the coming week. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Something I have learned from helping my daughter with her homework and assignments. People, not just kids, tend to stick with the few things they knew and like - preferences built up over time that become habits. And when circumstances shift, and we are pushed outside our comfortable habits, we tend to have issues. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So how about instead of being upset, try applying this simple quote to the situation. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Life is about using the whole box of crayons."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Just some food for thought from a mom.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

My daily devotion for the day really hits home, and I wanted to share it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation . . . . I can do everything through him who gives me strength." - Philippians 4: 12-13 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I know I have been 'stay home, stay safe' a lot in my recent posts - but I say it because it is my wish to you and your family that during this crazy time you truly are safe.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I totally understand being home ALL THE TIME, especially with kids and a cranky husband. We had plans that have been totally been derailed by this outbreak - summer plans are gone, school is gone, playdates and birthday parties canceled and a husband who is now having to do his night classes via video chat during dinner. Not to mention a full house reno and being pregnant.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Believe me, when I say, I feel your stress and anxiety. We are all learning to handle this new 'normal' and work with what we have. Most of all, we just need to be patient, kind and have consideration for others. I am so thankful we have been able to stay home to not get sick, I am so happy I have a job where I can work from home with my kiddos. I am happy my husband is able to go pick up the items we need and not be too mad at my pregnancy cravings. And most of all, my prayers and thoughts go out to the family, friends and other workers who are daily sacrificing their health to continue working. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This will not be forever, but it needs to be a 'now' thing. So I'll get off my soapbox now and wish you all, from the bottom of my heart, stay safe and if you can - stay home.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Since being pregnant, mint tea has been my daily go-to for something to start my day right. It is also one of my safe foods, which helps little one stay calm so I can sit and work on ideas and sketch out designs. Lately, she has been more active, which makes it harder to stay sitting for long periods of time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With the kids home, my office is basically anywhere I can sit and work - the bed, the sofa, one of the two desks, or even the car when we are getting out of the house but keeping social distance. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Being flexible with my work has been important to me, and I am so glad for the resources I have been using over the past year that until now, where just fun tools and tricks. Now, I can create content for my clients on my phone or iPad as well as my laptop, meaning I am free to be with my kids and not tied to my desk. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How have you found ways to adapt during this time of change?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

How have you been creative during this time of staying at home?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Recently I have been working on making resources for others, as well as having art and craft time with my munchkins. It's been nice to sit down and let them see what mommy can make, and have them be enthusiastic about it. Not something that was part of my daily work life with them out of the house.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some of my projects have even been inspired by them.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Hey there, Monday! Starting the week off can be hard, but know that you don’t have to tackle the full laundry list of items all at once. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can plan plenty of ways to be both productive and have time to veg with an episode or two on Netflix. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One tip that helps me, is not trying to clear out my inbox first thing in the morning. It’s a crazy place and you could very easily get sidetracked. Instead finish up the last few items from the last work day and then when you take a snack break, sort thru it then. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Stay safe, stay happy and stay home. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
