Well it's a Sunday, my third one since we've been in "lock down." It's in quotes because it's so relative, we can still go outside and go to get groceries which is a luxury that some don't have. I'm currently trying to muster up the motivation and energy to go on a run. I'm supposed to be at the Prosser, I'm supposed to be sailing. Soren's supposed to be rowing. We're supposed to be having great days with our teams. We're supposed to be headed back to Annapolis at like 5:00. I'm supposed to be dreading going to school tomorrow. Instead, I've had a leisurely morning. I have no idea when I'll be back at school or what will happen this summer. I'm not complaining at all. I'm in a comfortable home, I'm surrounded by people who love and care about me. I have everything I need or could want. I just like structure and details and I like to know ahead of time and I don't know anything right now. Neither does anyone in the entire world, these are just my thoughts at the moment.


I woke up at 10:00, didn't even get out of bed until 10:30. It's not like me. But, it's okay. Everything is getting done. I made us breakfast, we watched some TV, did some homework and we are getting ready for the week. Tonight is pizza night! Every Sunday, Soren's grandparents make homemade pizzas and they're so yummy! I look forward to them.


Upon further consideration, maybe I won't run. There's an old bike in the basement that I'll do a quick circuit on. Some abs, some cardio, maybe half an hour. I think that's been one of the hardest parts about quarantine, having a schedule. Yesterday, Soren, Soren's mom, and I decided that Mids are probably having the toughest time being home because we have no schedules now. We're used to having everything set out. Things we couldn't be late for, and now the responsibility is on us. There's good and bad to this but we're still stuck in the middle.


I'm used to everything I could need being in walking distance. There were three gyms I could go to, I know that there are tons of people who are feeling the same way so I won't complain. I have more of a schedule down now but it's not easy. I guess if I want structure, it's up to me. I think we'll get groceries on Tuesday and I've made my list so that I can make some smoothies and healthier options that aren't just eggs for breakfast, we've eaten a lot of eggs...


My coaches started sending us a weekly newsletter, we received the first one today. It was a little emotional. They meant for it to be lighthearted, but it just made me miss everyone. I still have the regattas on my Google calendar and in my planner. Every time I read one I just imagine what could have been. Every athlete is feeling this, I'm not alone. I know that if our coaches could, they would fix it. We'll be back soon.


I'm going to take advantage of this Sunday, it's beautiful weather, it's in the 50s. When I briefly called my mom this morning she asked what the temperature was and I said "51! I should go grab a bathing suit!" Hopefully it stays warm!
