Thanks for that. I find that a bit of a walk seems to help. Meanwhile I've not started on housework but I will.

People are beginning to think that its not likely so online teaching may be happening here or they may have to extend the school year into the summer. The trouble is, not all schools have A/C and it can easily hit 30C here by late May or June. People are also noticing trouble with internet connections with so many working from home already. The providers have notified us that they are giving everyone unlimited access with no overage fees for the next couple of weeks at least but if kids have to then work from home too it will really put a strain on the system.<br />I am trying to get myself into some sort of routine as my office closed yesterday (all religious gatherings are to end for a few weeks so we had to close up the church) - even managed to do some laundry and ironing today - tomorrow I intend to do some dusting and vacuuming - at least my apt. will be clean! But I'm not sleeping as well as I normally do and a few friends have said they are experiencing the same issue. I may venture out early to a store on Friday and get a bit of a walk while that is still allowed.<br />Hang in there - at least there are lots of great documentaries available and many galleries and museums have offered wonderful tours. YouTube has one series you may like "London - the First 2000 years - a 4 parter). I'm on the last episode.<br /><br />Margie from Torontohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103835021764804099noreply@blogger.com
