Another week, @LostAngel. When will we ever get on top of this? I have my 2nd jab this weekend. Seems to have been forever coming. Looking forward to it.
I've been without a kitchen for a month now and they were just starting to get going after sealing all the leaks, then they found a few missing bits in the kitchen kit and couldn't continue - now lockdown, again. I'm not complaining about lockdown, though. I'd hate to think of the consequences if we didn't have it.
I might do a little reading - although I'm not a reader. I prefer discussions and learning from people who have a passion for their interest - whatever it is. I'm going to try to sort through a whole lot more of my things while this unit is in total chaos. And perhaps - just perhaps - I might do a bit more walking than I've been doing. We'll see how I feel.
Take care and sending best wishes.

Hello, I'm just stopping by to see how everyone is going. I want to focus on my wellbeing this lockdown so I will be drinking more water, cooking healthy food, going for long walks, doing my affirmations and doing some meditation.

Hi @LostAngel @Arizona @Historylover and anyone else reading this.
Another week of lockdown in VIC. Have the kids at home doing on line schooling again. They should be used to it by now 😒😒
Unfortunately that means that I won't be able to see my supports next week and will be via phone or tele health. Again, I should be used to it by now but it doesn't get any easier.
I hope you all are going ok and that the lockdown will be ok for you all.
Take care 💕
