Quarantine

I mean, I already never went outside before, as I'm taking care of the home while my bf is working away.
But now, I'm not even allowed to go with him to shop (he's at home now, might lose his job because of it,
as he is in trial, he just started a new job, GREAT).. anyways, the rule here is only one person goes to shop,
so can't go there anymore.. all I see is my house and my garden now. <.<

I'm actually excited to stay in the car this friday while my bf will go to doctor. I will be bored sitting in the car
for probably 1 - 2 hours, but at least I will be able to see something else besides what I see since weeks xD
But he has to say an excuse, that I'm in the car with him to drive him back afters, since I'm not really allowed
to go with him in the car.
 
Quarantine is basically paid vacation I've been needing, minus not actually being able to go anywhere I would go on a vacation. I dont usually get much time off from work aside from weekends, despite I want the time off, so here it is I guess. Not how I imagined it, but time off all the same.

We were planning on/signed everything to move house just before the virus was more than a thing nobody really cared or knew about. Once it got REALLY bad it was too late, we had already handed in our notice the old landlord and signed with the new. It made the whole ordeal a nightmare, especially getting ahold of essentials when we didnt have the storage, but now we're in the new house, none of us being at work mean it's almost decorated fully in just over a week...Which again was stressful at first since everybody else also seemed to decide they wanted to decorate their houses now making getting hold of supplies difficult again, but now the finish line is visible and I know we have enough stuff to do it, I'm pretty chill about it all.

I've got tons of games I've not even started to get through once we've finished decorating, I live with my bass player for the band so were probably going to record things, i also live with my girlfriend so i get to spend a bit of extra time with her.

At the moment I'm enjoying the quarantine to a degree, but I know that my only days out being to ASDA every couple of days is going to start driving me mad, especially since I'm usually never in the house. I'm just gonna stay positive and enjoy the free time whilst I can...Before snap and kill the household.
 
My workplace is considered essential, so I'm still going in, but we've gone to a rotating schedule and only work 2-3 days a week.

Idiots coming to my window have already given me the flu twice this year, so if one of them gives me the corona virus, I'll either beat them senseless or come back and haunt them mercilessly.
 
I don't mind staying home playing Animal Crossing, but never having anything else to do than grocery shopping is pretty exhausting.
 
i'm a VERY extroverted person and so this has been really tough on me and my mental health

i ended up having a fat anxiety attack a couple days ago simply because i felt trapped and alone
 
Quite enjoying not being forced to go out! I've only been in quarantine for nearly 3 weeks now so maybe it will hit me later on but at the moment I'm living my best life lol
 
Haven't left home for 15 days now. It's nothing I can't survive but maaan when this is over I'm not stepping inside for like a month
 
It's been very easy for me compared to a lot of other people. Though there have been a few times that I wanted to go outside, generally my life hasn't changed significantly.
 
berry creme, happy belated birthday!

I've started a quarantine knitting project. My brother is turning 50 in a few months, and he loves Calvin & Hobbes. I found a pattern for a Hobbes doll and am making that.
 
i spend all my time playing acnh and it's sooo bad- i'm supposed to be having online uni, but i've lost all motivation being home (bc usually when i'm home now, i'm on a school break), and i'm so worried about my grades dropping ;;;
 
Honestly other than the fact that it feels like it should be way later in April than it is it's going fine.
 
my profs dont give a **** and are unloading all the possible work they possibly can on me
so im not bored, but not happy lol

thats what i get for practically majoring in rocket science
 
I keep indoors as much as possible and, although I try not to focus too much on the current situation that's affecting everyone, at the moment (through reading, playing games, studying and whatnot), I can't help my mind wandering off into a dark pit of endless thoughts, especially at night. I think on how many people are out of work, how many have lost a loved one or can't even say goodbye to them, how many are obligated to work in order to pay bills throughout this pandemic, whether I'll eventually become infected and ,worse yet, transmit it to my family, whether they'll still be here at the end of this awful nightmare, the economy tanking, our president and senators still not doing enough to control the issue, how so many people are still careless about this pandemic despite cases and death tolls rising at an incredible rate. I sincerely hope that every member here will make it through this in one piece, as well. I would not wish on my worst enemy the suffering this has caused.
 
The stay at home order got extended until May, so I'll be working from home until then I suppose.
 
Feels like my daily routine so it never affected me BUT my job, being home-based is surprisingly suspended so...I guess I'm going to sleep as always.
 
i've been playing some gba games that I haven't touched since 2004 lol man im surprised my GBASP still works. All I need now is to put some batteries on my old police scanner just in case the SHTF
 
I just keep wondering how everyone else has so much extra time and I seem to have less! I mean my job shifted to work-from-home so I'm still putting in the same number of hours. I never had a long commute so I gained no time there. And I pretty much never went out except for essential things anyway, but that's taking up more of my time now because it's so hard to find certain things and I have to go to multiple stores. I know this sounds weird but I can't wait for things to go back to normal so I can get my time back.
 
I mean, I pretty much stay indoors all the time, so i'm okay with it.
 
i've been training for this my whole life
