Can you believe that we are already in the second half of October?! I feel like every year feels that way, but like everything else in 2020, this year that feeling is just amplified. I have been so overwhelmed with a bunch of things going on and I haven’t been posting like I was, but I couldn’t let this week pass without sharing some of the things that are helping me get through this crazy time in life. Read below for how I am working out, washing my hands, spending my free time and more…

This week I wanted to kick off a new series. Some of my favorite posts on other people’s sites are when they do a round up of all the great links and things they have found throughout the past week, so I decided to adopt the idea! So without further ado, the first week of Friday Finds!

While I haven’t committed to a full theme night, we have created a little movie theatre experience at home. I think the biggest key to making these nights the most they can be is making sure that you keep them special by getting out of the norm. We set up a movie screen (aka white table cloth) in front of our spare bed so that we aren't just watching a movie in the same place we watch shows in the evening. So aside from a way to get out of your normal routine, what else do you need for a movie night at home?

The gravity of all of the things going on in the world has been weighing heavily on me lately. But I think it’s important to put my thoughts out there about how we can all do a little better navigating through these times in a way that respects others, ourselves, and truth. I have by no means got these things down, but they are skills I aspire to use in every conversation and interaction.
