I didn’t blog yesterday. Something about that number of cases surpassing 50K kind of took me out at the knees a bit and I just couldn’t bring myself to type it! But with every day, I hope we are getting closer and closer to the apex of that curve we’ve all seen. Truly cannot come quickly enough.
Not, however, because I’m stir crazy or tired of not being able to go out. In fact, quite the opposite – I am happiest when I’m home and although should this drag on for more than a month I could see some issues, for now I am finding a myriad of projects/distractions/delusions to keep me busy.
Still posting a video every day. Every! Day! And honestly I’ve gotten into a great rhythm there and am faster than ever with my editing and metadata, so that’s been a huge silver lining. Of course, the biggest motivator there is all the amazingly encouraging comments from viewers all over the world who tell me that my little ridiculous musings mean something to them. Seriously maybe the most gratifying thing I’ve ever done as a YouTube creator. Are the things I share life changing? Oh, absolutely not. Will it distract you and maybe make you laugh for 15 – 20 minutes? YUP YUP YUP. So we shall go on.
We go on to the joy and through the tears, we go on, to discover new frontiers . . .are you singing with me? Betting you are. Comment if you know the song;).
I hope your new normal, whatever that may be, is starting to feel a little more peaceful. It’s still going to feel weird, but at least, maybe, it’s starting to feel like just an odd temporary space where we can still find joy and thrive.
Love you,
Jen
