God I bet DT
Isnt it just all so strange and surreal
If it helps you are not alone in this, I have my neighbour single mum with a 6 year old they are in lockdown. Because we are in an urban area in a big town she cant leave the house, even to her garden on only one window allowed open
Get round that paddock!
Staying safe is the main thing
I am reading up on furlough etc. I will be getting questions on this soon no doubt
Also PCI rules now! Taking credit card details over mobiles!
Think I need a run

Morning all. I’m still working (at home) but have been asked to take a 10% pay cut. Today is looking a bit empty but there is gardening, ironing and cleaning to do. Will also go for a run with the dog. Better check in on the Mothership too. Need to keep busy or I’ll just eat!

That’s hard Sarahwoo I think most of us are dreading the news that may come, going to be a very odd time
I have been thinking about many things one of which being what do we really need to keel us going... monetarily this is hard on us because we all cut to our cloth so to speak
It is already making me be more frugal, i almost shopped online for something today very hard as one hand says dont spent anything, the other says but I need that stuff (I dont) and the other pictured our delivery driver at work who was gutted we were closing as he wont have work.
I think the rule applies to lockdown and work our way one step at a time
And as a goal for next week we can do that
DT I thought about you on my run today, counting pegs, and I think it’s a great idea! You can still DO that’s the main thing
Spent so much time in my shed creating this weekend, using up silver I already have and remaking and refining pieces I have made previously.
Northern how are you today?
Also sarahwoo gardening! Love that..
Stay cozy and keep talking Xx

How are we all?
I have had a hugely busy work, at home, cocooned away while my family are still out doing their normal jobs and driving to and from work mixing with people.... same as some of you
I am finding the whole concept weird
I am running every day which is a major plus, and learning new tech and how to use tech in a positive way... adding houseparty, google hangouts, zoom and whatapp video to my list this week
food and drink less said the better hair is fun I am thinking of going real punk now, long and straightened into loads of punky spikes. or cut it myself?Lol
Goals next week: Focus on cleaner food Quality runs Keep cleaning and sorting Dollops of creative, more more more!
I must admit that having the converted shed has come info its own as my silversmith teacher has had to close down (So sad But she cant afford the rent with us not there). I am able to still work and make, and have already had one of the stepsons up there making and Andrew too... creatve will be great for the next few weeks..
if you use Instram check out Daisy May Cooper she is the lead character in This Country and is doing script writting sessions free. it is ace! then you can loose yourself working out charcters and stories
DT that would be ace in your mind... peg1 is Mr Brown peg 2 is Miss Smith etc etc.
That.s an idea!

Lovely to chat to FRU this morning We agreed that it's all weird
Was so good for me to get up onto the moor and breathe
Plan for tonight is to have our gig night
Then I need to figure out a new routine and not get overwhelmed

Wow I am a little pink from my daylight and garden today
A nice full on day...made a 4hr Elvis Spotify list (I love Elvis) then cleaned the bedroom to an inch of its life followed by the boys room and the bathroom...
Run was fun, Andrew had gone on the food shop.. I had his card in my purse! Doh! Ran to Tesco on a rescue mission then onto the almost deserted Uni grounds. Lovely
Creative afternoon in the shed learning how to use my newly aquired hand drills.. amazingly cool and no electric or batteries required
Video call with Andrews family (mine with my family is now on saturdays) it actually is really nice doing that, making sure they are all ok
So goals next week: - keep running and on quiet routes (as long as we sensibly can) - try not to let work take over, get some new routines and not let those toxic people in - cleaner eating - relax more, clean more, sort more, cathartic stuff - talk to friends as much as possible - be mindful of how much space Andrew needs and not bug him so much! I need more company and fun than he does Lol!
