I make lots of paper cranes. I made a lot of them before the pandemic to hang up this paper crane rainbow waterfall, but now more than ever I rely on folding the cranes to refocus myself, to relax, process, and feel out my own feelings with every fold. I hope yo make more seeing as my workspace at home is full of sticky notes which helps me stay mindful in getting work done and taking care of myself. I also made a few paper crane gowns since I have so many paper cranes.

We celebrated Christmas this week and I was at home with my family the way we always celebrate. It's almost like we could forget that the pandemic was going on. Only a few differences: instead of going to church on Christmas eve, we watched the service on the computer while sitting downstairs around the Christmas tree. Also, instead of spending time at the mall shopping for Christmas presents, most of the shopping was done online. I didn't like that part because I enjoy shopping for things in person, but it was OK for one year. I truly hope I don't have to shop this way next Christmas though. We spent the day eating, laughing, playing games, doing puzzles and enjoying family time. I am truly grateful that we got to be together after not being able to hang out all year.
