Last week was a crazy and confusing week, but it all got even weirder over the weekend, don’t you think? It’s like all of a sudden it really sunk in what we all needed to do. Our school has moved to e-learning from home for the next two weeks, and I expect that will be extended. We are hunkering down to flatten the Coronavirus curve and preparing for a long stretch of time ahead of us. Like I mentioned last Friday, my blog will continue in much the same fashion that it always has – a light hearted break for your day. So today I’m sharing 10 ways to improve your isolated weeks ahead.
Let’s just be honest and admit that TV will have a legit role in making it through the day. If you’re looking for a great show I highly recommend Good Girls. I’m also loving Single Parents, The Bold Type, and the latest season of Outlander!
There will be many family activities and board games are always a favorite for my kids. I love Scrabble the most! Scrabble Junior is a great version for kids, too!
I’m making an effort to focus on good choices. Getting a little more active and exercising. Going for long walks in my neighborhood. Getting fresh air. This swingy asymmetrical top is new and adorable, and Lululemon leggings are comfortable for (let’s just be honest) all day long.
Like I mentioned my kids will be e-learning from home the next 2 weeks (at a minimum). In addition I plan to have reading time every single day, and Kindle Kids makes it so much easier for kids to find a book that they love and removes the “we don’t have any books I like” excuse! Plus it comes with access to thousands of popular books!
One way I make time for myself is a long walk with headphones and either music or a podcast. Bose headphones are my favorite and I’m just so sad because I left mine on an airplane on our way home from Mexico in January. I ordered these headphones because they had good reviews and are only $70, and they’re FINE, but just not at all as good as the Bose headphones. If you’re looking for a good new podcast my friend Claire just launched an amazing one called Dabble! Check it out!
In my quest to stay active I’ll be using my Obe Fitness app! It is the best app and has all sorts of different workouts and it’s just really so fun. If you use my code CHASSITY30 you get 30% off of your first month!
I’m planning to replace a few of my breakfasts and lunches with juices to help make sure I’m getting all of my vitamins and hopefully curb some of my snacking habit! BluePrint is available on Amazon (thanks Whole Foods) and can ship right to you in 2 hours!
I’m the type of person who loves to cuddle up under a blanket on the couch all year round. These Chappy Wrap blankets are my most favorite – I have one on each couch in my living room.
These Olly vitamins are vitamins that my kids will actually take! They really do taste good – all while providing not only essential nutrients, but also live probiotics!
And we’ll end with what I will in all likelihood spend a GREAT deal of time in the next few weeks – my Lake Pajamas. They are THE comfiest and cutest pajamas ever. I hope you all have a beautiful, happy, and healthy Monday.
