Her face says it all. That look of dismay is exactly how I feel right now.

What day is it even? Monday? Saturday? Groundhog Day?

I’m tired and totally unmotivated. I’ve stopped working out. And my creative spark has dimmed.

At the beginning of this thing, I was on it. Aside from empathy for those falling ill, and concerns about us getting sick, I quite enjoyed lockdown. I liked having my family close. I did all kinds of projects and got sh*t done. But now I’m done. Even the littlest things take such an effort this week.

It was Avery’s cat’s birthday this weekend and if you know me, you’re aware that I live for this stuff. I’m the woman who threw a full-on dog wedding just for fun.

But @fureverkevin’s party was lame. I bought KitKats for dessert and a squeaky mouse toy. I didn’t even wrap it. No special decorations or cat themed games. Nothing. Bare minimum.

Of course none of this was for the cat. I’m not a psychopath. This kind of thing is for my daughter who gets such joy out of celebrations, big and small. So I feel guilty and sad about half-assing this one.

Summer is finally here and I’ve got no energy and zero focus.

I think I need a nap. And a revamped routine.

Anybody else feeling burnt out and guilty for being a sloth?

This photo was taken 8 years ago. Avery was so excited to be buried in the sand with her cousins. That ear to ear grin...

We planned to recreate this pose every summer. But then I read about tube worms that live deep in the sand.

We won’t be taking any cousin photos at all this summer, sandy or otherwise. My family lives in the US and the borders are closed.

We are sad. Especially the little head on the left. She’s the saddest.

Keep safe everyone. Keep your distance. Wear your mask. And hopefully we can all be reunited with the friends and family we’re missing, next summer.

These are stressful days—for the adults in charge, but also for our patient and resilient kids. Just imagine a summer like this? This isn’t anything we’ve ever experienced before. It’s unprecedented and uncomfortable and hard. ⁣

So any tools and strategies we can give our kids can only help. ⁣

Thank you @goldmindscanada for the meditation for kids class tonight. Avery absolutely loved it. Namaste everyone! ⁣

A lucky few have been on the receiving end of one of Avery’s video messages. The “𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵?” in this happy birthday greeting with the Vanna White arm presentation and wiggly fingers made me LOL!⁣
⁣
Yes, we like your tent and I’m thrilled you enjoyed your night under the stars backyard camping with daddy... while mummy slept peacefully in the air conditioning with the bed all to herself. 😴 🤣⁣

My husband is an avid golfer. Let’s just say, I’m not a fan. (Clubs may have been thrown last time I hit the fairway.). However, it seems my golfer guy has found a partner! Avery loves hitting the range and putting and all the golfy things. 💕 ⁣
⁣
I love that they have this special activity to share. It also gets me off the hook! :) ⁣

**Swipe right to see Avery nearly take out her granddad with a sideways drive. “Oh. Sorry about that granddad.” 🤣
