There's not a lot of excitement here in The Humble Bungalow.
We are maintaining our small bubble of people to stay safe and not entertaining much...we have our closest couple over for social distancing happy hours in the garden but that is about it. We have not been "out" for a meal but have done take out about 4 times since early March.
I managed to get an appointment with my hairdresser...
the first one since mid December!
It feels so much better!
Voyage d' Hermes Arlesienne by L'Occitane and Figue Amour by Bastide.
I've been wearing perfume every day and pearls most days
even if I am wearing jeans and a simple Tee shirt.
These "little things" help to keep me focused on the "positive."
Dressing up occasionally
but mostly wearing casual walking and gardening attire.
I've tried harder to keep my FitBit steps up.
My weight is up 7 pounds.
My doctor reduced my daily Thyroid medication last Fall.
He said that I would really have to amp up my activity
and/or
drastically cut calories...to avoid gaining weight!
I am not happy about the number on the scale
but I will not perserverate on it right now...
I need comfort and less stress during the pandemic.
As we are constantly bombarded with grim news I turn off the TV and radio...
self preservation is a must.
I turn to the garden...
so inspired by the beauty of our glorious roses.

Taking Tea
a daily ritual ~ so soothing.
Have you read this wonderful publication by Sharon Santoni and her team?
