Captain’s Log – Day 4 – Working in Isolation from Home Base

I thought I would share my morning e-mails to my co-workers here:

 

Good Morning Friends –

 

We’ve almost made it through our first week of working from home. I’m curious to know how everyone is handling their new normal. Are you enjoying not having to commute? That is certainly one of the perks.

 

Someone commented that they loved the butterfly photo in my email yesterday so I thought I’d share a few more of them (see below and attached). These were taken at Butterfly World in Florida in 2007 when I went down to visit my Mom. The two butterflies in the last photo were like that for hours – who knew?

 

I’ve been making a list of all the projects around the house that I never seem to find the time to do. I’m hoping to get my closet cleaned out this weekend. I’m also looking for good Netflix recommendations. I’ve almost finished “You” which is creepy but so good and I got Bill to start watching “The Good Place.”  We’ve also been watching “Better Call Saul,” “Good Girls,” and “Dispatches from Elsewhere” on regular tv.  What are you watching?  Anything good?

 

I’m not sure where this came from but thought I’d share:

 

And the people stayed home. And read books, and listened, and rested, and exercised, and made art, and played games, and learned new ways of being, and were still. And listened more deeply. Some meditated, some prayed, some danced. Some met their shadows. And the people began to think differently. And the people healed. And, in the absence of people living in ignorant, dangerous, mindless, and heartless ways, the earth began to heal. And when the danger passed, and the people joined together again, they grieved their losses, and made new choices, and dreamed new images, and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully, as they had been healed.

I also found some good advice in an article about staying sane while working from home:  https://www.wcvb.com/article/how-to-work-from-home-without-losing-your-sanity-1/31463941#

 

Take care my friends. I’m so thankful to have the technology to work and keep in touch with you all.  I miss your faces.  J

 

Have a great day and please, as always, let me know if there is anything I can help you with.

 

Be safe out there.
