Week Re-Cap

Oof, I had grand plans of having my North Carolina re-cap ready for y'all but...I've been really tired (haven't been sleeping great) and I woke up this morning with a headache & a bunch of work so unfortunately none of that happened! So, we shall wait on NC and just go with this photo of flowers I snapped on my walk on Monday evening. 
I will say it has been odd getting back to my routine after being away purely because the routine I've established in quarantine isn't my routine from months ago. I miss going to work more than ever before and I miss my friends so much...I think we're going to be planning some socially distanced hangouts because our collective mental health has been on a decline.
 I will also say that while I recognize my privilege in being sad that fall events I go to every year are being cancelled that doesn't take away from the sadness I feel. The Texas State Fair was cancelled and while that is for the best, I found myself really upset. I think I keep hoping we'll turn a corner and have something to look forward to (especially because the fall is my favorite time of the year) but it's just not happening. 
But more importantly, we need to keep wearing masks, keep being distance and just protect everyone around us from this horrid pandemic. I hope y'all are doing well and know that if you ever need to talk to someone, my email is just a click away — xoxo darling, Hayden.
