Of course, now my car IS parked in there but I can't...go anywhere 😂😂<br /><br />I'm trying to be nicer to myself about adjusting to WFH. I came across something this morning that helped - you are not working from home; you are at your home during a crisis trying to work. That's a distinction that helped me immensely.

Fingers crossed your hay arrives soon!! I know it's gotta be hard to be separated from them 😭TrainwreckInTealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557554448624901955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-599298708593134981.post-79494596725854975992020-04-02T09:17:24.666-07:002020-04-02T09:17:24.666-07:00Your place is a real homestead now!

Sheesh.<br />Glad you're able to work from home, though I agree the adjustment has been strange. My customers seem to have also lost track of work hours as they contact me at all hours. I've forced myself to stop answering emails after 8 pm, and some nights I shut off right at five if I feel I need to for my sanity.<br />I'm officially separated from my horses which is awful. But they're in good hands. I can't wait for things to get back to normal, and for my hay to arrive so some of them can come home!Stacie Seidmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421021003654717894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-599298708593134981.post-88632658848293571762020-04-02T06:26:36.403-07:002020-04-02T06:26:36.403-07:00Yeah day by day is the only way I'm surviving ...Yeah day by day is the only way I'm surviving this, glad I'm not alone!

WFH has meant work all the time for me, which is pretty frustrating, but I'm trying to take things day by day and not think too far into the future. I've been able to get out to see my horse a few times. She's doing great and not missing me at all lol - it makes me happy and I'm ready to get this leg fixed and go riding againroothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09670446457829193892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-599298708593134981.post-16211611572537188062020-04-01T13:21:22.211-07:002020-04-01T13:21:22.211-07:00😂😂😂😂😂😂TrainwreckInTealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557554448624901955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-599298708593134981.post-86839648752238714882020-04-01T13:21:00.258-07:002020-04-01T13:21:00.258-07:00Haha yeah the garage has sidewalls taller than the...Haha yeah the garage has sidewalls taller than the house (DH wants a car lift, sigh), so it probably looks a little goofy from the road but it meets our needs so 🤷♀️). And yes, so pleased with all of it. And at least it's finally dried out so I can do things with the horses again. <br /><br />I'm glad you're weathering this so well! Minus the weird dreams of course. I think given a little more time I won't mind being a forced homebody, haha 🙃TrainwreckInTealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557554448624901955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-599298708593134981.post-56227423469958089562020-04-01T12:58:36.639-07:002020-04-01T12:58:36.639-07:00LEAH BLOGGED LEAH BLOGGED LEAH BLOGGED I'M SO ...LEAH BLOGGED LEAH BLOGGED LEAH BLOGGED I'M SO HAPPY!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04292565760924146966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-599298708593134981.post-38892894301170867252020-04-01T12:48:37.983-07:002020-04-01T12:48:37.983-07:00Dave built everything on our property and IS a GC,...Dave built everything on our property and IS a GC, but even he says NEVER AGAIN to building a house from the ground up lol. Building this thing broke him.<br /><br />Your garage is SO MUCH BIGGER than pictures made it seem! Seeing it in tandem with the house really brings the scale of the thing to life. Hot diggity damn! Y'all have to to be so happy with your little slice of paradise. <3<br /><br />I'm doing pretty damn well despite the chaos. Anxiety meds are amazing and I'm so fucking happy I started them last year. About the only negative thing I'm dealing with that I can't control is some weird AF dreams about all of this. I'm not sleeping super well as a result, but it hasn't compounded too bad lately. I've never been so fucking happy to be in the middle of nowhere with my own piece of land. For many months (okay, years) now, all I've secretly desired was to stay home with nothing to do. While I wish this could have happened without the whole "pandemic" thing, I'm doing my best to make the most of it and find and enjoy and be 220% grateful for all I can do and all I have right now.
