Social Distancing, Day 24: Mental Distancing

I'm in a kind of weird mood where I don't want to be around music or movies or TV or books or videos. I want to focus on things that don't stress me out, so no Facebook or Instagram either. Reddit and Twitter are okay because they're topical, but even on Reddit I've unsubscribed to quite a few feeds, till it's just gardening and food and travel and nature pics.

It's probably stress, and eating like crap lately, and working so much. My brain is tired. I've decided that today will be calm and unscheduled, but still productive. I may turn off my cellphone so I can't look at orders for tomorrow. I need a day where I'm not making plans or decisions, except what to eat or wear. That's today.

Playing with Baby R and watching her eat her breakfast gives me a peaceful easy feeling©:
(I adore this face ^^)
H came in and ate his bagel while Goober watched:
R is going out for a run:
H and Lucifer/Wednesday (it depends on whom you ask):
H and Chad:
The girls decided (R decided for them) to paint rocks today. Here they are hanging out in Bella's room:
I spent part of my afternoon having a picnic while we had two new tires installed on Sherlock the minivan. The tire shop guys were so quick, I barely had time to eat the very sloppy orange I bought at Target.
Quite cozy.

Drove home on two new tires, folded clothes, and had a C sighting. Ohhhh here he comes:
Then this kid came in:
And this lady:
