Totally hear you. I was telling Curse how we are so lucky to have low overhead, because even in the very rough times, we can keep going ~ there's no reason to shut the doors (maybe open some new ones if necessary, but not shut the one that's there). We'll weather through these times together, and yes, nesting and such other low-to-no cost activities are a good option to put some of that excess energy and creativity to good use :)

Aww thanks Kambriel. Even though we know that these things are cyclical and eventually we'll be on the other side of this uncertainty, it is difficult to get past some of the immediate anxiety. But friendship does help immensely. I think I neglect my friends too often and retreat into a cocoon, but then I'll get a nice message or a phone call that will completely brighten my day and I realize how vital a sense of humanity really is.
So in the mean time, perhaps I should have a revolving page of ramen recipes to entice potential shoppers. Best of luck in the new year and thanks for the comment.
