Random Quarantine Observations

These are just a few random things I've observed and tips I've acquired  during this Coronavirus Quarantine.  Not in any particular order:

•    If you’ve washed your sheets and take a shower before bed, you can [...]        

[...] wear the same  clothes the next day.

•    Watch all the news you can stand, yell at the TV, then turn it off vowing never to watch  news again. Repeat daily.

•    Since you’re wearing a mask whenever you go out, no makeup is required.

•    If you’re wearing sunglasses with your mask, you don’t even need mascara.

•    Wash your hands. (NOT WITH CLOROX. SERIOUSLY.)

•    Teach your family how to use Skype.

•    Clean up all the things you threw at the walls while you were teaching your family how  to use Skype.

•    Reorganize all cabinets, drawers and closets.

•    Forget where you put everything in your newly reorganized cabinets, drawers and  closets.

•    Remember that you needed something that you actually threw away during  your  reorganization of cabinets, drawers and closets.

•    Overcome crushing self-doubt as you watch other people accomplishing amazing  things while you scroll through Facebook every morning. And every evening. Really all day long.

•    Have daytime TV shows and nighttime TV shows. This will keep you grounded.

•    Yoga. Seriously. Do this.

•    Sit on your porch and drink a cup of tea. Or just sit on your porch - and drink.

•    Did I say Yoga? Do that.

•    Howl into the outside air every night at 8:00 pm. Really good for the soul.

•    Feel the gratitude of the good fortune of living where you are with a loving partner and a  healthy mind and body. Seriously.

Loved your comments. Can't relate to some of them as I don't have TV. But about the only positive of wearing a mask is I don't have to wear makeup! And now the stores can't make me take off my sunglasses :)

Secondly, yes, do exercise to keep those endorphins up. I have been doing about 80 minutes a day on my treadmill and floor exercises, light weights.

I don't have family to Skype with, and found it amusing people are still trying to learn. I learned to Skype. I was Skyping with a special VOIP phone as early as 2003. Learned FOREX trading using Skype. But hey us geeks have to stay together to Skype together :)

Be well, Yoni.

If you’ve washed your sheets and take a shower before bed, you can [...] wish upon a star that Prince Charming will come over and share those clean sheets with me. Hey, you lose your dreams [...] You are tagged to finish my sentence.

Take a leisurely bicycle ride down Platte River trail or into Waterton Canyon. Moonlight kayak Chatfield reservoir or Watson Lake.Share a glass of wine with a friend at Romano’s in Littleton or La Bruzza’s in Prescott. Hug your friends. Thank God with a grateful heart for His innumerable blessings.
