I miss my extended family. I miss my friends. I miss my office This extrovert NEEDS people. I’m mourning the loss of what should have been my kiddo’s t-ball season. Just because we are in a stable place and are lucky on so many levels doesn’t mean that what’s going on it’s epically hard. It is. And it’s okay to struggle with the loss of normal right now. #covid_19 #momlife #workfromhome #debtfreecommunity #zerowastecommunity #coronavirus
How are your virtual meetings going? 😅 Zoom is great. My coworker won’t stop popping into the frame though. #workingwithkids #covid_19 #stayathome #workfromhome #workfromhomemom
Homemade Irish soda bread and corned beef with cabbage for St Patrick’s Day. Still preferred last year with @apurplelife and @fetching_freedom, but the food was good. #homemade #stpatricksday #cookathome #frugalliving #ecofrugal #debtfreecommunity
Sitting in the sun this afternoon watching the kiddo fly his airplanes from Nana @elizabethpantley and realizing that watching him play on the ballfield is likely to be as close to t-ball as we’re going to get this year. As a college softball player myself, I’ve been anticipating the time that he’d get to start playing, and I even signed myself up to be a coach, which he and I were both thrilled about. While the season isn’t cancelled yet, it sure isn’t looking likely to happen. I’m grateful to a state that’s taking #covid_19 seriously, but I took a little time to mourn the loss of the first season of baseball. #coronavirus #tball #tballmom #kirkland #kirklandwa #kirklandnationallittleleague #softball #debtfreecommunity
A couple weeks ago, I began reaching out to friends to ask about the status of their food and supplies at home – if they had the minimum two weeks as recommended as a standard rule of thumb for emergency preparedness. For the most part, I got lightly brushed off and business continued as usual, especially for those outside of the Seattle area where we were already experiencing a serious COVID-19 outbreak. In the last week, though, and especially the last few days, those conversations have started to change. While it wasn’t enough for most people to take serious notice when it was *just* the Seattle area dealing with the outbreak, as things began to spread to much of the United States, especially New York and California, preparations began in earnest. I’ve begun to get requests for suggestions on what to stock up on and details of what it looks like here at home, as we’re ahead of most of the country. I first considered writing this post last Thursday, but it felt that maybe Monday would already be *too late* to share, until I realized that not everywhere looks like the Seattle region yet, and even here at home there are a lot of people only now starting to take this seriously. So, this post is for you, if you need help figuring out what might be a good idea to purchase in preparation of being home for two weeks (or really, three weeks or longer). Even in Italy, grocery stores and pharmacies have remained open, but if things get that restricted, do you really want to be relying on your turn to go shop? Better to be able to hunker down and stay home. And – of course – if you feel sick AT ALL, do not go shopping. Order delivery. Ask friends or neighbors to do your shopping for you. If you’re sick, even with a mild cold, stay home and do not interact with the general public (though I would definitely still recommend some outside time – but with good social distance).

Supporting small business, Day 1. I’m able to work from home, so my income is not impacted at this time, and I’m going to be spending my money this month. T-Rex fossil purchased today from @hansfex today for the kiddo. They are a small online retailer and are STRUGGLING for business right now. My heart breaks for the people and businesses that will be put out of work due to #covid19, so I will be doing a small part every day to spend my money where it matters. So today, that also means I’m giving away a $25 gift card to Mini Museum, which has a ton of totally awesome dino stuff, but geeky gear and other great gifts. No requirement to follow or share, just comment below if you’re interested. Sharing the love today and hoping to help a small business survive this tough time. Regardless of if you’re interested in them particular, maybe consider spending that $5 or $10 you’re saving from not going out and purchasing gift cards for when things go back to normal. Will select a winner tomorrow at 4PM PST. #supportsmallbusiness #covid #coronavirus #shopsmall #shopsmallbusiness #covid19seattle #debtfreecommunity #financialindependenceretireearly #choosefi
