Well, I think it has been many weeks since I last let my brain vomit all over this place.
I don't know if I feel less panicked about life, or if my subconsious has just gotten betting at hiding said panic from myself. Perhaps my body didn't like losing 4lbs in a panic-fuled delieium. It just really wants me to be more active.
We have officially fallen into our COVID-19 "new normal." And yes, life really does; just go on. Though I wouldn't know for sure as part of keeping my metal health I haven't read the news in at least two weeks.
I am increasingly happy at the turning of the weather into something resembling Spring. Spring is my favoite season and I am excited that Beltain is only a month away. While it is still occassionally snowing, I would be dissapointed at this point if it didn't traditionally snow on my wedding anniversary at this point.
Taking bike rides when it seems like people are not out and about on the paths has become a guilty pleasure as of late, even if it means going out in the rain. Having a (modest) backyard has also become a luxury that I am very thankful to have, and am glad to be in the almost perfect space that is our house.
A lot of introspection has been happening, as is want to happen in times like these. Who I have been, who I am, and who I will become as I approach 40.
It's all a little cereal, just like this present time in which we are living
