Spring!

We are not fully ordered to stay at home yet here in Portland, but we are very close to it. It’s weird to be mostly-stuck-at-home while the trees and flowers are blooming.

My chipmunk ways have paid off. I have the luxury/privilege of being able to keep some extra pantry stuff on hand. I can work remotely with no obvious dip in quality or quantity of work. So generally I’m doing all right. I’m remembering that I need to manage my mental health, especially since I can’t see all my friends right now. (Please don’t come at me with that introvert stuff right now. I know most of you are. I respect your introversion but also I’m an extrovert.)

Anyway. The only way around, as they say, is through. So I’m gonna make some coffee and get some work done and just keep swimming til we get through.
