Covid

Lots of “needless to say”s but anyone quite like idea of quarantine?

CDC say maximum quarantine period is 14 days.

Me and the children (9 and 7), chilling out an home, pottering, catching up on lots of jobs around the house, some school work, board games, films, yoga at home, runs around the garden and children on trampoline etc

I have lots of lovely food for two weeks

As I say lots of “needless to say”s that I won’t list here.... but really, 2 weeks at home, kind of appealing!

Single parent here - probably explains the appeal more to me than others Grin

I didn’t, hence not saying it because so many caveats Confused

I'm hoping we don't get much choice in the matter, we need to stop carrying on as if nothing is happening.
People are so selfish, maybe this will stop all the entitlement and people will begin to change the way they live and work.

Needless to say

So why say it? 🤔

If I thought I'd get paid I would love it! I have lots of books to read, plenty to watch on TV and I'm sure the dogs and I can find some nice isolated fields to walk in. I can definitely live on toast for a fortnight.

Absolutely

I’m sure those who won’t get paid and are barely managing already are absolutely relishing the thought

I'd love two weeks in isolation...sounds like bliss.

My children however would be climbing the walls
