How will the pandemic change you? By dmsreadwrite
Growing up, I spent a lot of time at my grandparents’ house. They lived about 10 minutes away and their place was my second home. I went there after school as a kid, and in high school, nearly every night to call my friends who lived in their phone prefix. In those days, long-distance was real AF and we didn’t have Facebook or texting. We didn’t get to speak until the next day at school in many cases and that was way too long. Especially when you were dating someone.
Some of my favorite memories of being with her is sitting in the kitchen watching as she cooked. I thought nothing of the old ham tin she put food scraps in next to the sink, Cool Whip containers that doubled as her Tupperware, or the jelly jars she drank wine out of. It was normal. This was how she did things. It wasn’t until I was older and started buying my own homeware that I really began to understand what those eccentricities really were.
More purposeful with my time outdoors. I was raised in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and moved to the Bay Area after college. I don’t spend nearly as much time in the great outdoors as I once did, and I miss it. I love this planet and fiercely protective of it and the creatures that call it home and I need to remember this and instill the same love and appreciation for nature in my kids.
More appreciative of the small moments and less stressed by the big ones. Endless bedtime routines at night that seem to stretch on forever have been a stress point for months, but I will no longer groan, but relish and appreciate those times because those moments will pass and they will grow up and one day no longer need me to tuck them in, turn on the light, get them a glass of water. And bottom line, they are healthy and here and every breath we breathe a gift.
