Best Thing About Staying Home

30 Day Blogging Challenge

Tuesday April 7th Prompt
What is the best thing to come out of staying at home (so far)?

I would have to say setting my own schedule and not spending so much on coffee shops and cafes. I don't have to commute. I can work in my most comfortable clothing - sweats and t-shirts.

I am writing more, but my focus for reading is not good. I am also on a heavy learning curve for trying to figure out how to reach my ASD students (special education). Google Classroom and Boardmaker Online are at the top of that list. So is trying to figure out how to videotape myself doing story time... and then getting it out to my students and their families. I will be so glad when we can get back into the classroom again.

Setting my own schedule is good, but I have to be careful I stay on track. Some days it has been hard to focus, but other days are better. I am learning to go with the ebb and flow and still get things done.

I am grateful for what I do have - some income, a nice place to live and I am not living alone - I have my mother and two cats here. I can get out and walk around the neighbourhood or out into the garden to putter. We have great neighbours. One called up my mother and asked if there was any wine she would like him to buy for her!

Stay safe and healthy everyone! We will get through this.
