I never know what to write as a caption, tbqh. I feel there’s more pressure to come up with something profound cause it’s on the grid. Whereas stories are a snapshot in time and I just say what comes to mind about my mundane life. I wanted it to be positive - look at my great hair, loving my new colour! But fuck, it’s so hard to be positive right now when I’m struggling. All I can see are the dark circles under my eyes and my double chin. I’ve adjusted to my new schedule of working from home, at the cost of my fitness and a bit of extra weight (whatever, it’ll sort itself out). Most of the time I just feel blergh which isn’t the best motivation for getting out when you don’t have a reason to leave the house. Anyway... where was I going with this? I have no idea. I feel stuck in limbo which is a bit shit.
Day whatever...

Had to do formal dress up for team meeting today. So I put on a dress, ma pearls, and did my hair and make-up. Kind of felt better for it, even though I got back into leggings and a hoody soon after. Dress and sneakers are @torrid.

I don’t know what this pose is, but it looks cool?! It’s nice, it’s different, it’s unusual.

Had a bit of an emotional wobble last night. Now I just want all the comfort food and to do nothing. Doing nothing can be achieved, cause we can’t go out, but comfort food... I’m gonna have to improvise. How is everyone else fairing in lockdown?
Day... I’ve lost track already. The rain stopped and the sun came out briefly. It almost felt like the entire neighbourhood got out for a walk at the same time. There were so many people out waking, with their kids and dogs. Several people out for a ride, like us. The best bit about it was there were barely any cars. It meant we could ride down the middle of the road, or next to each other. People were even walking and running in the middle of the road to keep distance. It felt amazing and it was peaceful and calm.

We did a loop to Northland, down through Karori tunnel, past the Botanical gardens and back up our hill to home. Total 30 mins, 9.5km. The bit of road from Karori to the gardens is usually gridlocked, so we don’t go that way normally. And it was so much fun to have reign of the road.
