WHAT TO DO DURING SOCIAL DISTANCING


Numerous campuses are moving to online classes and practicing social distance because of the coronavirus pandemic. Social distancing is when you avoid large crowds and try to keep six feet in between you and other people whenever possible. Ohio Northern University asked for all large events to be cancelled and to reduce the number interactions between people. Everything has changed so quickly over the past few days that it is hard to keep up with all the changes. With most sporting events, concerts, and forms of entertainment closed now, it can be hard to find way to stay entertained. Below are three activities you can do while social distancing is still going on!

Take a walk or run! Getting outside and enjoying the fresh air can be helpful when you are feeling locked up. You can either take a gentle stroll and enjoy the fresh air or go on a run to get your blood moving and heart pumping.

Stretch or do yoga at home! When you want a break from watching your favorite season on Netflix or doing online classes, take some time to stretch or preform a simple yoga workout. You do not have to go to a yoga studio to get a good yoga session in. There are so many different yoga videos online that you can easily follow, no matter your yoga style.

Watch that movie you’ve been wanting to watch or read that book you’ve been meaning to read. For instance, if you loved Frozen like I did, you will be overjoyed to know that Frozen II is now on Disney Plus! Now that you have a little more time on your hands because all of the cancellations that have been happening.

Social Distancing and the craze that is going on around us will not last forever, so continue to stay positive and WASH YOUR HANDS!

  1. Thanks for the tips above. We should definitely find ways to enjoy ourselves while being at home all day lol. I have not seen Frozen II yet, so that will be the first thing I watch when I make it back to Memphis lol. But I'm praying that the virus blows over soon.

MY FAVORITE COOKIE RECIPE

I have been doing a lot of baking lately and thought I would share my favorite cookie recipe! There are so many cookie recipes it can be hard to find one that you will like. I love the classic chewy chocolate chip cookies, but my all-time favorite cookie is a monster cookie. I was always so excited when my mom would make these for me when I was little. What also is great about this recipe is that it does not require any flour, so they are gluten-free!

5K Training

I thought I would give you guys a little update on how Paige and I have progressed in our 5K training. We have reached week five in our training. We have been running consistently five days a week for five weeks! I did not realize how quickly our training would go by. We are now only 11 days away from running our own 5K! Paige and I have made it to 2.5 miles without stopping, which may not seem far, but it feels like a great accomplishment for us! We are a little over a half-mile away from our goal of doing a 5K. We plan on reaching our goal by the end of this week! Keeping motivated to run has been difficult some days. It is easy to make excuses of why not to run like it’s too cold or raining, so I thought I would tell you a few ways I stay motivated. The first way Paige and I stay motivated is by holding each other accountable. Paige and I find it best that we run together so we continue to keep up with our training. Plus, we get to get out of the house when we run! We ...

HOW TO MAKE BUFFALO CHICKEN PASTA BAKE

I have two questions for you! Are you struggling to find something to make? Do you love buffalo chicken dip? If you answered yes to these questions, then I have the perfect recipe for you to try at home! Buffalo Chicken Pasta Bake is great for all sizes of families because you can easily modify the recipe. Another reason I love this recipe, is because it uses ingredients that are almost always in your kitchen. It only takes 30 minutes to make, so it is a quick and easy recipe to make, that everyone will love.   Another perk of this recipe is that you can easily make it gluten-free by using gluten-free pasta and ranch dressing. I used canned chicken because of how convenient it is, but you can also use left over chicken or rotisserie chicken! Buffalo Chicken Pasta Bake Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 8 Ingredients 12 ounces of pasta of choice, normally 1 box (I use rotini pasta) One 8-ounce package of cream cheese, softened ¾ cup of ranch dress...
