Wow. May 7th was the last time I blogged. Oops. I'm not even going to pretend that I have a good reason for the big pause, just life in general I guess. I've been going through a lot both physically and mentally. It's been rough, but it's getting better. :). Probably won't go into a lot of it, but that's okay.
I finally feel that after 19 months of working from home (how is that possible??), I have my groove down. Well, I had it down quite a while ago, but I haven't blogged in forever. Anyways. It's finally feeling 'normal'. And I LOVE IT. I really do. I feel completely blessed to work for a company that supports their employees 100% and has a fantastic flexibility and so much mental/emotional/work-life support.
I'm working from home full-time. Hubs is working from home 3 days per week. He goes into his office here in town 2 days per week. Occasionally he will go to his Santa Fe office, but for now, he only has to go to this office here in town. Which is only 2 miles from our house which is awesome.
On the 3 days that we are home together, our work spaces vary. Most of the time he works downstairs in our sunroom (his choice) and I work upstairs in our joint office. But sometimes it's the opposite. It all depends on what meetings we have going on that day. Like today we both worked upstairs in our joint office for a few hours. If he has an on-camera meeting, I will grab my laptop and head downstairs. And vise-versa. We've made it work. Thankfully, neither of us has a lot of meetings, let alone 'on-camera' meetings.
I still have a lot to work on as far as my general routine goes, but it's pretty good right now.
I'm still reading a lot, but have obviously failed at updating my reads here. I'm on Goodreads though! So all (well, most all) of my reads are tracked there. I'd like to say I'll go back to the monthly reads blog, but that probably won't happen. I think it's more likely that if I read a fantastic 5-star book that I will mention it here. Maybe ha ha. I have a lofty reading goal for next year, mostly to get my TBR down. It's too humiliating to mention how many books I have on my shelves to be read. Yikes.
We haven't traveled at all, mostly because I am paranoid about Covid still. And I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I see the horrific numbers and am just still super cautious. We still have strict mask mandates here. We are going to Arizona next month (a whopping whole state away) and I'm even a little paranoid about that. But we really need a get away. We haven't been anywhere just the two of us since December of 2019. It's time!!!
Let's see...that's probably all for now.
