Intentions for the Week – Week 20 of 2020

Happy Monday! 

I slept in for the first time in forever this weekend. I spent time visiting with friends through Facetime and over phone calls. We even had a social distancing cocktail hour with my neighbors in our driveway.  So many social dates all while sheltering in place. We’re making it work! We worked in the garden. Cucumbers were put into the planter beds. I grew them from seed!  I made a few arrangements of succulents in the yard and thought about my Mom while I worked in my childhood garden. Mother’s Day this year was quiet and that is exactly what I wanted.   Let’s take a moment and write down our Intentions for the Week, shall we? It’s a good way to check-in with yourself. Here is mine!
