Being a Mother

I am behind on posting, and today is actually a bit of an anxiety filled day. I have a lot of posts to catch up on. Including getting back to days of Social Distancing. I'm currently on Day 54. Things have changed a bit, but I'll get into that in a different post. I also …

Day Something or Other

This post will cover days 31 to 36 (April 16-21st). I only know any of this information because keeping track of days is the only thing I use my day planner for anymore. It's been a week since I last posted, and I am good with that. I haven't been posting because I've been spending …

The One Where I am Honest

This post will cover day 26 to day 30. (Saturday to Tuesday) of my families Social Distancing, but it won't be the same day by day as I usually do. I write notes or send myself emails as I think of things I want to share. I'm going through my list. Loss First of all, …

The Distancing Life: Days 24-25

Before I go into the day, I want to share some photos taken for our Front Porch Photos by Lovestruck Portraits. I love them so much. We did them with a donation to Empty Arms in Saskatoon, and I donated more to the Food Bank for more of a selection of photos. I believe photographers …

A Mom and her kid being Socially Distant – Day 21-23

And so it continues. The social distant life is still going on, and I don't expect it will end any time soon. We are doing okay. I think that my son is a hero. He's great. He knows the world is different, and he knows the germs are stopping us from doing things, but that's …

Wacky Weekend of Solitude. Days 19-20

We have almost survived three weeks. I don't have a lot to say about how I'm feeling. We are surviving, and I am counting the days of our social distancing, but I am also counting down the days until my partner gets home. It's been a tough could of days solo parenting. I'm getting tired. …

Two weeks of Social Distancing

It's late o'clock so this may be short. I have both day 13 and day 14 to talk about. I was too tired to write yesterday. Today, has been emotional, and I don't want to write, but I know I need to. It's been a rough couple of days and solo parenting my three year …

The Lonely Life: Day 12

I'm going to take a break from posting about my feelings and anxieties. Except to say, I was feeling sick this morning, and took my temperature about 50 times, BUT THEN I started feeling better. Things got better. (No fever, and my throat stopped hurting.) I'm not one hundred percent, but I'm feeling better, not …

Home home again: Day 11

Day 11 and I'm still not feeling well. My throat is still hurting. My head wasn't hurting today though. I am hoping it goes away soon. I am hoping, with all of my heart, that this is all it is. It's not worse than it was yesterday, and it may be both stress and PMS …

The Socially Distant Life: Day 10.

While cooking supper tonight, my throat was hurting and my head hurt. I started to feel hot. So I automatically, ran to get the thermometer and check my temp. That's the world we live in now. A world where I am constantly scared I am going to get a virus that will separate me from …
