Unplug
This is going to be the shortest post ever.

COVID fatigue is REAL.  I'm seeing it and feeling it.  

Summer is my favorite, and I normally get a boost of energy and feel productive, but this year it's been slow in coming. 

This past weekend, I got my first chance in forever to really unplug.  Like couldn't get internet signal if I wanted to - we were a ten minute drive from the closest cell phone range, which was then slow and spotty.

I came back feeling...not new, but mentally cleared out. I can see the same piles of stuff waiting for my attention and not sink into apathy.

I have lots I've wanted to write about here, and the fatigue had been part of what was keeping me from sitting at my keyboard.  I'm a little more hopeful now that I can gather and compose my thoughts.  

In the meantime, I can suggest that if the pandemic fatigue is a weight you are carrying, a serious unplug may be just the thing.
