Occupying Yourself During the Quarantine

   No surprise that we are returning to a more gentle way to occupy ourselves during the pandemic. Sewing, playing board games, working on puzzles, going through photos—all help us pass the time. Getting to know our spouses and children in a new way with time to talk and memories to recall make the time spent in our homes an almost delightful way to live. Trying new recipes, working with what we have on hand, not driving all over the place to important meetings which now can be accomplished by “zooming” make us reevaluate how we have been living. Can we say it? God bless computers and social media for the ability to get through this time and still stay connected with each other. After this time passes we will all be so grateful to see each other in person, give that warm hug and remember that time is precious.
