It's an overwhelming time and the doomscrolling can feel endless. Can you pick one thing to do today? Have you had water yet or taken meds? Have you made plans this weekend for something fun offline? Would a pastry, a walk outside, or time with a hobby give you joy?

My new daily routine: Step 1: Remember something I need to put in my calendar. Step 2: Look for phone for 15 minutes Step 3: Forget what I needed my phone for Step 4: Get distracted by the information overload that is my phone Like and follow for more life hacks. 🥴

Ugh… I ruined my Hoppin’ John. A piece of plastic fell into my instant pot and cooked with my peas. I’m thinking eating melted plastic will negate any good luck potential the black eyed peas might provide… 😞

Something funny for today. Enjoy your Sunday!
