AB returned home from business trip with Covid. First time, we have both managed to dodge it until now.

Masking in the house, in quarantine essentially for a full 10 and up to 14 days. If it lingers past two weeks and threatens to consume the entire month, this will require a growth mindset to say the least.

I’ve abandoned my most needed and enjoyed Friday 5pm heated slow flow yoga, feeling the loss.

Before AB left for this infectious business trip, I hosted a tiny but decadent lunch for Dad and Sharon. Served delicious braised short ribs, english roasted potatoes, a winter green salad with radicchio, tasty fig crostini. It was a beautiful bright sunny arctic day, I do savor days like those. Especially grateful for the ability to have the bandwidth, nothing better than an empty calendar and a mind free from distraction or work or rushing, to be able to be fully present preparing a memorable meal for people I love.
