In the middle of a pandemic, it’s tempting to wallow in the bad news. This means it’s equally important to make note of the good in the day. So here is my list:

• People have kindly offered to grocery shop for me.
• A friend made a couple of masks for our family, and another friend has promised to make one.
• I talked with one of my sisters today on a video chat, and saw my dad to say hi.
• Our internet connection was mostly non-glitchy.
• Claire and I devoured a huge bowl of popcorn as we watch an episode of Cosmos followed by an episode of the Great British Baking Show.
• I enjoyed a navel orange from my tree.
• We had an evening family walk after our family dinner.
• Flowers are blooming and gorgeous.
• I’m healthy.
• The day began soft and easy.
• My daughter seemed less anxious today.
• I savored my breath.
