Quarantine Diary: Day Seven

What even is that title!?

QUARANTINE DIARY?

Ah, yes, my sweet friends. Welcome to 2020. We are now officially practicing social distancing and are self-quarantined. That is still unreal to type out.

I never in a million years believed that my blog would pivot into diary entries of my experience during self-quarantine. But after a week filled with anxiety over TP, hope for the future and figuring out the best ways to make use of this endless time we all have on our hands - I thought what better use for this platform than to connect with the community and see how everyone is doing on a day to day basis. You in?

This is a crazy-ass time, and yes, I may curse, yes, I may cry, yes, I may laugh and bring the motivation, but this is a safe space for us to be real, honest, vulnerable and to help one another through this INSANE time.

At the very least, maybe reading these entries will help you to know that you’re not alone and there are many people out there feeling the same way you are.

I have friends who are self-quarantined with babies at home, others who live alone and some who are with their fur babies and/or significant others. No matter your situation, I want to hear from you and see how you’re doing!

As for me? Some days are anxiety-filled, in complete disbelief of what is happening around the globe and others I choose to find hope, happiness, and escapism. I’m still making new goals, taking my daily vitamins, meditating, journaling, connecting with my family on the other side of the country, listening to uplifting content and it truly makes all the difference.

Something that has wildly improved my mood, is making sure that I limit my screen time on my phone. If not, I find myself falling down a ‘rona rabbit hole that continues to make me anxious af - ain’t nobody got time for that! Educate yourself, consume the data and facts you need and move on. Trust me.

So tell me, how are you doing?? What is your day-to-day looking like? How are you keeping busy?

I love you all & am here for you!
