Care for Some Forest Bathing? #MondayBlogs #forestbathing
Forest bathing is as important when you’re working from home as when you’re not. Maybe even more so.
The Remote Life #COVID-19 #remotelife
The remote life is not so bad. Not as long as you have plenty of food, you’re not sick, none of your family are sick, your cats are healthy, and you’re able to work at home and maintain your income (alternatively, you could be retired like my husband in which […]
