I’m doing a lot of things this week that I would/should be doing anyway, but also fit into SPAW. Springtime things, garden things, bee things, farm things. And that’s my normal stuff, but I think I’m getting more done *because* it’s solarpunk action week, and I’ve got this larger purpose in mind. And others making similar efforts, that I can read about here!
And similarly, there’s stuff I’m into anyway, but the pandemic is making me think more about. And then do more about. Like I’ve been meaning to cut up some old sheets for reusable toilet paper, to reduce our usage, and now I can’t GET any tp, so today I actually did it! Progress on existing goals!
And I’m probably planting more, going a little bigger on this year’s garden, because the idea of not being able to just go to the store is hovering around my head. I don’t *actually* think I’m doomsday prepping here, but the benefit of relying just a little less on capitalism to fulfill all my needs is really making itself known these days.
So there’s a little silver lining in this covid-19 situation - just a tiny one for us in this house, nothing compared to all the suffering - in that it’s pushing me to do better. And the idea that we’re all in this together - even if it needs to be separately, in our own houses - is very present for me this week.
