I really liked this meme which describes very well the things we can control and so should focus on, along with things we cannot control so that we should let go of these things.
A couple of days ago I actually did some garden cleanup for a few hours. The soil was soft and it was easy to pull out these rose campion plants that over the years were spreading everywhere out of control. It was great being outside. The neighbour came out to say hello, and I put my hand out and asked him to stand back. He understood of course. I asked him how his kids were doing, well, he said they were out of school as we all know. A couple walking by said hello from a distance. A little dog came running up after awhile but he didn't touch me. The owners apologized as they hadn't noticed me sitting out front.
We are trying to gauge the best, less busy hours to go walking in our neighbourhood. It may be around 2 pm.
