What To Do During Social Distancing: Adult Edition

To all my moms out there— this past week has been rough to say the least. Our families are our top priority and keeping them busy and having fun is of the upmost importance, of course. However, we also have to make sure us parents stay SANE too. Below I curated a list of at home activities for you (husband optional) to do while while practicing social distancing.

BOOKS TO READ:

When you feel like taking a break from being glued to the TV— a good old fashion book is always the way to go. Sometimes I get so into a book that I actually feel like the characters are real. Does that happen to any one else?

  • Where the Crawdads Sing

  • Seven Husbands of Evelyn

ORGANIZATIONAL FUN:

  • Take the time & clean out that messy (& embarrassing) closet of yours! Make organizational bins your new best friend & get to color coding woman! There is no excuse to not make everything have a proper place with all the new found time you have on your hands.

  • Clean out those horrible selfies & random screenshots from your Iphone. A nice technology clean out is oddly satisfying. take your 12,000 photos and delete at least 200-300 a day.

  • Re-organize your bookshelves and/or dresser. Tap into that inner decorator in you and play around with book placement, add a candle or two, or get rid of the excess junk & create a minimalistic type of vibe.

  • Dare I say it… this also may be a great time to really clean out those bathroom cabinets. Yes, you read that right. Organize that messy makeup & contain all those cotton pads & swabs. You got this woman.

AT HOME SPA DAY / Workout:

  • Check out my blog post on Social Distancing At Home Spa Day— to get the scoop on some of my favorite skincare products right now. Given all this madness, you best believe mama is relaxing with some wine, music & a face mask or two.

  • AT HOME WORK OUTS PEOPLE!! You need to do it. Take care of your body during this time because wellness starts from the inside out! I have plenty of workouts for you to do at home, using things around your house! Check out my latest #workoutwednesday here using luggage, baking cans & even my little Scar.
