By Like many around the globe, we’re doing our part to protect the global community by making the kind choice to limit time outside of our home. This means shifting our typical event-driven days to things we can do inside or in places where we can practice safe social distancing. It’s currently pouring rain here in SF, which makes it even more difficult as outside activities aren’t an option for now. However, we know there are blue skies ahead — both in the literal and figurative sense.
For now, we’re looking on the bright side of more time at home. I’m sharing the list of our ideas for how we’ll do this in case it might be of use to others looking to do the same.
