Always Look on the Bright Side of Life

Everyone is impacted by COVID-19.  Literally.  Around the world.  Its a once in a lifetime event and I can't believe we are a part of it.  Weddings, graduations, bar-mitzvah's, parties, and even funerals are cancelled/postponed.

I'm trying to look on the bright side.  Here are my top ten thoughts to stay positive.

  1. You can work in yoga pants, all day & wear no make up
  2. You can save money by not using hair conditioner & no one will know/care
  3. Co-workers on video conferences won't know if you haven't taken a shower or used deodorant (but don't worry I do)
  4. You can do squats while on a conference call, and have a free workout
  5. When you take a walk around the block, you see the true beauty of the buds on trees and yellow forsythias & how delicate & wispy & green the buds on the trees are.  And you really appreciate it.
  6. I haven't had this many clean clothes in a long time because I don't go out/wear "work" clothes but I keep wanting to wash the germs out of my clothes
  7. I've cleaned my shelves & thrown away expired food from 2017 and food we'd just never eat  in baggies that are all cruddy and greasy
  8. My husband buys everything on sale/bulk so we will never run out of toilet paper, paper towels, shampoo, tissue ANNND....I found 8+ bottles of Lysol cleaner/bathroom cleaner and other anti-bac cleaners.  I can make new friends with these common basement items.
  9. Distance learning, virtual workouts, working from home will be the norm
  10. Teachers and nurses will be more valued

What are your top ten?
