I am really enjoying this time in isolation. Since I can wake up when my body is ready to I often stay up late listening to You Tubes and watching shows like “Phantom of the Opera.
I’ve thrown out or passed on goods which I no longer need and I am growing some food.
I am doing Pilates, Qigong, walking and cycling. I have time to sit in the sun or swing in the hammock.
I have learnt to use Zoom and WhatsApp and host a weekly coffee morning tea and a philosophy talk. I spent time reading to my granddaughter on WhatsApp, followed by a Duplo building completion. Then I followed her and brother via WhatsApp on their bikes before the final dart competition.
I’ve learnt how to order things online and have been cooking tasty recipes from YouTube. Most importantly I have learnt to do self-body and face massage since I’d been missing my regular remedial massages.
Days are passing very quickly and I still have more jobs to do around the house. I hope isolation doesn’t end just yet as I know once it does these will go on the “To do sometime list”.
I think about some of the great things which have happened like parents spending quality time with their kids and reduced greenhouse emissions.
I have found since everyone is in the same boat people are more friendly. The difference is how we feel about it. In my area we put a green ribbon on the letter box if everything is fine and a red one if we need help with something.
My hope is that we each take some part of these new habits with us when isolation finishes so that the new world is better than the one we were isolated from.
