    Watching the movie Rosie on record from last night. I was so looking forward to it since its release. Missed it in the cinema. Jaysus its like a hard luck story being told by a load of rich fookers. Loads of potential gone down the pan. It's more like a documentary by hard nosed TV makers. I was expecting to cry at this one and interlink with the reality it was trying to portray.:rolleyes:

    I'm trying not to think about work and finances, it's out of our hands now. The banks have announced measures for people who can't make mortgage payments and I'd imagine they will be extended. A lot of people will be in the same boat unfortunately.

    Not for me, thankfully, but I can't help but feel bad for so many others that surely will.
    Even businesses you don't think of, I was supposed to bring my Mam to a 5 star hotel for 2 nights this week, rang the boarding kennels & they knew I was cancelling as soon as they answered!
    They said everyone has cancelled, no-one going anywhere..... No-one Boarding their pets
    Beauticians, hairdressers, dentists, pubs, restaurants, small businesses with big loans......
    It's going to be very very hard.

    On thread.... Reading a book, having a glass of wine.

    Having a glass of wine, had annual leave today so back work tomorrow, dont want to complain as I know lots have lost their jobs but concerned about being around other people, apart from 10mins in the shop this morning I haven't left the house today.

    I should get stuck into getting jobs done around here or doing a walk or some exercise but I'm rooted to the couch today, will definitely have to motivate myself more but anxiety hit me again today.

    I'm dreading being told we can't leave the house except for shopping, work or medical appointments. It's important to get out and get some fresh air and exercise.

    It will cause a lot of mental health problems and the current resources for that are abysmal anyway, imagine what they'll be like when everything is diverted to the current crisis.

    I'll advertise by walking around with a sandwich board on me. It might be my only opportunity soon! I can keep a false set of accounts for revenue too. :D

    First day waking up in this hotel, all restaurants are closed for dining in, so I basically just went to get a breakfast box, so some hard boiled eggs, yoghurt and bananas washed down with fresh OJ and Nespresso. A couple of weeks of this and I shall definitely be healthier, especially if I stay away from our onboard chocolates :)

    I've no idea what will happen with work like mine. Most of my customers order from abroad although I was psyching myself up to sell in Ireland this year (at festivals, haha :( )

    I have one fallback option I could return to, but that and all connected to it have been closed.

    I'm kitchen window side preparing to go for a walk...overjoyed by the lovely weather today. I made a bird feeder and it's being well used :)

    Back from a walk with the doggies. I'll be walked out soon. Cold morning for it but nice cold sunshine is still cheery.
    Loads of walkers out early today, but no standing conversations going on.
    Tea now then a bit of work, have a good day all.

    I am home deskside. I will be allowed back in the office next week if the office is still open.
    I go from been worried about my job (I only started in this company last august) to been complacent. But for now I am lucky enough to be working and getting paid.
    One thing I am discovering about this crisis is that while I am usually a grumpy pesimist - I am turning in to a bit of an optimist. Seeing the brightness where there should be darkness.
    Or maybe that is the madness setting in?
