COVID19 - Week 2 at Home

Showing off new jammies - Star Wars

Monday -

  • It was interesting having full week 2 of all of us at home
  • I had a bumpy day at points - it feels like a hamster wheel
  • Kids had a blast with Liz and Connor had so much fun he fell asleep on his floor a little before dinner
Snoozing on his floor
Tuesday -
  • Typical day - weather was getting a bit better so kids played outside for quite a while which was nice for them
Wednesday - 
  • I got up early to sign the kids up for summer activities - touch football 🏈 for Connor, Ninja Warrior camp for Maci, ⛳️ Golf lessons for M and family 🏊‍♀️ swim night - we are so hopeful summer feels "normal" again
  • I had a ROUGH day with work - it is crazy what this isolation can do to your outlook and mindset but I have some amazing coworkers and spouse who helped to turn around my view
  • It also rained all day which did NOT help!  And that means I didn't get to take my daily walk which is one of my few small pleasures right now 😉 
  • Connor took a HUGE nap in the afternoon, seems we all are feeling it 
Thursday - 
  • I woke up with a way better outlook, probably helps that we only have 2 days left in the week oh and the sun was back!!  It also didn't hurt that I had fewer than normal number of meetings.
  • Kids played outside a ton!
  • I had a busy evening : virtual happy hour with Megan and John - former Cargill co-workers, then took a nice walk outside and then had another virtual catch up with my high school gal pals ❤️ 
Friday -
  • Let's keep that great outlook rolling right into the weekend!
  • Clint and I were both pretty pumped for a Friday especially with nice weather outside again
  • I wrapped my day with a virtual happy hour with my team - I keep trying to find ways to keep us all connected and having fun/laughter!
  • After we all called it a day, we had dinner and then took a family walk but unfortunately the rain rolled in sooner than we thought and so we got caught in a little bit of chilly sprinkles
  • I then hit the hay early as I could tell my body just needed some rest!  Clint had a few cocktails and hung out for a bit.

 Before the rain came, cool dude!

Saturday -
  • LAZY Rainy Day!
  • We started the day with a walk before all the rain 🌧 moved in
  • We got home around 1030a and I plopped my rump on the couch with Clint and that is where we were until almost 4p - we binged Tiger King 👑 😳, caught up on Vanderpump rules, watched some Office and concluded with the end of Back with the Ex (I think that was the name - reality show on Netflix)
  • We finally got up and did some dinner before putting kids to bed and some hot tub / cocktails

Sunday - 
  • Another rainy day but today we were a bit more productive and alive
  • Clint and I did a good house clean and some laundry in the morning 
  • I rode Peloton virtually with Nikki (former co-worker and friend) and Lindsay (current team member) - it was a great sweat and a good message 💜 
  • We both have been doing chores around the house which feels good after a nice lazy day and the kids are watching some movies in the basement - they are having their own lazy day now
  • We are really looking forward to drying out and having more sunshine ☀️ hopefully a few good days in this week ahead 
We hope you all are surviving this timeframe!  Hopefully we put this behind us shortly and by then the weather will be 💯 Please stay safe + healthy and check on your friends/family/loved ones!

Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
