Doing well. I’ve been working from home since last Thursday, so over a week now. It’s not very busy, just a few emails, phone calls and texts every day. Luckily my boss is very hands on and involved, which eases my workload by a lot. At first, when I left work last Wednesday (two Wednesdays ago) it felt weird because everyone at work looked healthy and it was weird saying goodbye to coworkers with no end date in sight.
I’m really enjoying not worrying about having to get to sleep at night and the morning routine which is rush rush rush. I’m trying to get some stuff done in the house and I have plans to paint the dining room and clean and organize some stuff. I also would like to do some craft projects. I’m telling myself that I’m usually busy with working and commuting and now this is the chance I have always wanted, to have a lot of free time and I have to take advantage of it.
I also took some nice walks in my friend’s neighborhood with her daughters and my daughters. It gave us a chance to chat and the girls to see each other, plus exercise which is a bonus.
Today I spent the day on the deck with the computer and phone. Weather was about 65 – perfect and sunny.
My daughter is up all night and sleeps most of the day. She’s 12, almost 13. She is very happy having online school. There’s not been a lot of work yet. I think school will be closed the rest of the school year.
I am in NY, what’s called the Tri-state area, which is southern NY, CT and NJ – where all 3 states meet.
Nobody I know personally has the virus yet. I know of some employees who have it and they’re home with fevers. Nobody hospitalized that I know of. I know a few nurses and they’re very busy.
