These are exciting times! Since we have more time in our schedules, we can do things we don't usually have time to do!

The students at your home can explore new courses like AP laundry, history of washing dishes, or science experiments with detailed instructions on how to clean the bathroom.

It is a time to discover more about yourself, and your kids by doing a Myers-Briggs personality test on humanmetrics.com. As an ENFP, an extreme extravert who lives with an INFJ, who is a good introvert, life in our home is interesting. Have all in your household do a quiz and sit down and discuss each other's results. Have fun, and enjoy one another. When this is all over, the hustle and bustle of life will return.

You can help hurting businesses in your area. Buy gift certificates to use later or give them out to those who need an encouraging blessing. Call the elderly often to lessen their loneliness. If you shop online, focus on local businesses, and tip more than usual. Make sure to thank the cashiers, nurses, and doctors. Teachers in public schools and colleges need to be appreciated and encouraged. They are all doing the best they can under the circumstances. A smile and a "thank you" will go a long way!

Don't forget to pray for those who are sick, and for this virus to end quickly, so we can all get back to normal. Peace and smiles to you all!!
