    I'm just wondering what you're doing while being in quarantine?

    For me very little changes, except that I don't have lectures where I have to be physically present anymore but my assignments and research simply continue, so it's basically the same except I don't have to cycle to uni everyday.
    Well, We aren’t quarantined. I work retail and still holding it down trying not to lose my mind. My husband is an ER nurse and they have been slammed. Had some potential cases but luckily no positives. We are carrying on with normal life for the time being. They are thinking of cancelling school and as I have a 10 year old son I’m already trying to come up with a plan for him while me and the husband are working.

    To be honest this massive lock down happened had a good time for me lol! My car has been in the shop for 3 weeks so I have been kind of on lock down anyway😅. But even if I wasn't, I live with a senior who has a part of his lung missing because of coming through lung cancer and then Holly has an auto immune condition. When Holly gets sick with the flu she ends up in the hospital and literally bed ridden for almost a month and a 1/2 and it takes her 3 months to recover from it. So I have no interests in being out anyway. Right now I am working on a T-shirt shop and plan on selling T shirts soon. I have had many designs for far too long and I'm going to try another business endeavor. Because of being a real estate agent I used to have to make a lot of Contacts with people but hell no! I'm living off my savings account right now and really focusing on music and my book.

    We're in quarantine here since past Saturday and there's more restrictions every day. Schools are closed and people must stay at home. We are just allowed to go out to buy groceries, go to the pharmacy, to work if you can't work from home, otherwise you can be fined. Bars, restaurants, malls and everything else are closed. Can't even go out for a walk or running or biking.

    Fortunately we have a huge terrace and a trampoline and can breathe some fresh air, eat out when the weather is nice or practice guitar outside, and my son can do some exercise and play, because being locked up 24 hours inside wouldn't be easy for a disabled child. Actually we could go to the street, because people having conditions like autism spectrum or cognitive disabilities are the only ones allowed to go for a walk on the street with an assistant, because they are considered to have too many issues to stay at home and most of them need to do a lot of exercise, but we prefer to stay at home.

    Anyway, even though this situation is too weird we try to run our normal lives working at home, playing a lot with my son and keeping a routine that makes sense...also practice guitar a lot if I'm lucky and my son wants to take a long nap after lunch ;)

    STAY SAFE EVERYONE!!

    In the UK is everything working as usual for now, and school still open... I try to avoid being to close to people etc but I always avoid that anyway so not a big difference for now. And being someone that loves being at home I will be fine if anything changes!

    Thats good my daughter is on the autism Spectrum and is really difficult for her to stay too many days closed at home, I hope they do the same here...

    I don’t mind having to stay at home either, and I do really love playing with my son and doing some school work with him. Keeping kids like ours calm, active and balanced requires a thoroughly planned routine though.
    Hope you don’t have ve to stay under big restrictions and everyone can stay healthy

    I was about to start working on April 1st in a hotel, but obviously that is not happening now. I was so fricking excited to start working, man. Mostly because I would finally get a new guitar, so I'm really disappointed now... Hopefully this thing stops asap.

    As for doing things at home, I'm working out, chilling with my cat and listening music, playing video games and watching movies. So that's pretty standard for my introverted life, lol.

    Apparently a state of emergency was declared in Romania, but nothing too strict. I was planning on writing a lesson for today but I woke up extremely tired. Guess people freaking out is annoying me more than it should. Other than that, working on various stuff of mine, playing with the little one. Been slacking off on guitar lately, but I was a tad busy with recording...something :D...during the last few days. I needed a break.

    Honestly, keeping up with what is going on around here makes me feel better. They also announced that Bardock is coming in Dokkan Battle (Dragon Ball mobile game) on the 18th of March, so...yeah :LOL:. Just trying to maintain some form of sanity, which is very hard when everyone and their mothers have opinions on this and seem to think I have nothing better to talk about. #PerksOfHavingNicheInterests.

    Other than that, nothing really changes for me. The President telling me that I have to avoid crowded places, a thing which I actively do, alongside, you know, not being a human-pig, is nothing of too great hindrance to me :LOL:.

    Let's all just take a moment to think of Chad Kroeger in these unpredictable times. :confused:
