How are you spending your time at home during the Stay Home, Stay Safe executive order?

03/20/2020

We should all look at the silver lining in our current events.

The mandate to stay home is giving each of us valuable time to reconnect with our loved ones. More time to play board games and do puzzles, cook meals together and talk.

I've heard of many who are stepping up to help others and businesses that are getting creative in the way they're doing things (like this idea that I love): https://www.thewhitney.com/events/Give-a-Cake,-Get-a-Gift

Maybe this worldwide event is the reset that we humans need to be reminded of what really matters in life.

Be kind, be safe, and count your blessings.
