I don't know where we're going, but I know where I am (part 9)

Gremlinertia

Ouch Smurf. Are there many on board?

smurfjed

Business class is full, 24 seats, should be 180 down the back with 100 empty seats.

Gremlinertia

Long way from lockdown yet so!.

smurfjed

It will be interesting to see how this turns out, I don’t think that I will get locked down.

Gremlinertia

I won't be sent home until everyone else is gone ahead of me, may have to find a bicycle!

Home now & five days off, hopefully! May be a chance of a call in......

I want to get rid of this cold, the cough is the worst, I can't take the staring & whispering!

Was up at 7 and had my tea and toast, took the doggies then to the local park for a walk, sun shining and birds singing in the early morning sunshine. Not a sign of another soul, is the world still alive I thought, has the virus gotten them all except me and the doggies. I did 5 k or so, packed up the dogs and came home, having more tea now and still haven't seen another soul, though my Mrs is still alive, I seen her breathing movement in the bed as I got my slippers.
Happy Sunday all.

Jupiter Kid, I think I understand.
I'm very jumpy and craving company. Im now regretting letting time pass between seeing people.
It's spooky.
And seeing people talk about wine o'clock puts the idea into my mind wgen I didn't want any in the first place.
Then I remember its only nice for celebration. At times like now it would heighten the spooked feeling. Im not sensitised to it but I'm wary of my own addictiveness and physical low capacity for drink. There were times when I destroyed myself with drink at the wrong moments, as I have described here before. I remind myself it is a poison.

Think beyond it if you can. After this is over I think we willallappreciate each other so much more

Homeside of course. Admiring my table that I sanded by hand and thinking about more diy

I was just outside in the garden, it's very still and quiet, I suppose a positive side to all this madness is that we actually get time to think and gather our thoughts rather than the constant rushing and racing around. It might also get us to appreciate the free things in life,walks,nature etc,catch up on the jobs in the house (I cleaned under all the beds yesterday, ashamed of the tumbleweed under the divan bed,had to clean out the hoover after it lol).I'm in a better frame of mind today so far,definitely got a dose of anxiety yesterday.

Have a great day lads.

It really is a strange time to be alive.

Kitchen-coffee-side. About to get it together and go for a run.
Later I'm going to clean the place and make a reading list, there's really not going to be a better time to start getting through all those books piled up everywhere!

Take it handy everyone.

I feel that I’m walking around with condoms on my hands.

And now with everything - even small group meetings - being cancelled and having to work from home every day, I feel lost, confused and anxious.

Just try thinking of the positives, yes working from home sucks, but at least you still have a wage coming in... One less worry

Why don't you use this time to concentrate on that one big art project you have in your head.... Whether that's just doing sketchbook studies, bits of research or if you have the supplies the real thing.

Or maybe flesh out your creative short stories and try a novel?

Continue with your yoga at home, put a YouTube workout on and do an hour... Have you tried tai chi? Might be worth a look.

Just take each day one at a time. Everyone is feeling the pressure.

If you are feeling stressed take a break, have a cuppa, get some fresh air

Deskside with the sweet java coffee, I'm gonna have try and head into town this week and top up, down to my last peru coffee bag after this :eek:

Oh this is so boring. And apparently our version of the Milanese singing from balconies is to sing the national anthem out the window at a set time on st. Patricks day. My neighbours already think I'm weird enough (some of them).

Just got a ghostly whiff of lavender as I was ruminating on the mangledness of my brain and my wayward heart. It was like a hug from the other side
In reality my idiot cat probably broke a bottle of oil or something but I prefer the first idea.

Sephiroth_dude

Honeybear that's harassment, I'd be calling the guards on him tbh!

Sorry to disappoint but.........it was just me giving you an internet hug......

I'll take it gladly

Trigger Happy

Couchside with the curtains closed. Our attention seeking neighbour is trying to get a viral video going by singing from her window. People are ignoring her.
She and her 4 kids have not left the house in 3 days. Bit early to be going stir crazy.

Heading off today to try stay busy
I think 3 days inside would be enough to crack up on
Couldn’t cope

Princess Calla

Just in from a walk with the kids. Gorgeous day out,though not many people out. Though the neighbourhood is always fairly quiet.

Widdershins

Just in from a walk too. I was just tagged in a video about a lockdown. I don't like it. Feels like things are out of control...or do I mean being too controlled...I hate the idea of a police state even for the rumoured 14 days. And it is only an unverified rumour of course. Be painting big X's on the doors next. What do they intend to do if someone leaves their house?

Couchside, back from a 21K run.

I will have no problem self-isolating for the rest of the day, won't be able to move.

Gremlinertia

Why can't I sleep? two hours just lying around with my eyes closed.. Bored and cranky, no worries on the social distancing for me..

I find having the radio or some music playing helps me relax & sleep.

That works for me, even the tv.
I find it hard to sleep without a thought distraction during the day.
Getting served up a, roast beef dinner here, we have a elderly relative with us for it, a pretty scared old dear atm.

Normally the same but nope, overactive head I guess.

Fair play on the walk yesterday
