So this is Lockdown Day 65 (maybe)

May 26, 2020 16:00

No real news from here. I do have photos of Barnard Castle but I shall resist posting them as they were taken nearly two years ago and not recently (this will probably pass anyone who isn't a Brit by and all I can say is how lucky you are). Even the news that non-essential shops might be able to open from the middle of next month has failed to rouse much excitement from me as the only place I would want to visit at the moment is a bookshop and apparently we would not be able to browse. Most of the fun of bookshops is browsing so that's out.

I did have a rather entertaining Pilates class this morning as Lisa's wifi, which is often dodgy, completely failed so we did the class without her. Everyone was chipping in with exercises they remembered so we managed quite well and even did the plank voluntarily.

On with the meme.

22. What small thing can you plan to do tomorrow that you’ve never done before?

It's a bit difficult to plan to do anything that I've never done before at the moment. If I take tomorrow as actually being tomorrow I am hoping to receive a fruit basket from M&S and that's something I've never done before but it is a bit of a stretch :)

23. What would your teen self think of the adult you’ve become?

I think she'd be quite surprised that I've turned out to be someone who is actually prepared to speak. If that sounds a bit strange it is because I was always being told to say more in class. If I have something to say now I will usually say it.

24. What’s the biggest problem you’re facing today?

Well, doing the Pilates class without a teacher was a bit of a problem. Otherwise managing to fit all the cardboard in our recycling boxes is going to be a bit tricky. A bigger problem is how not to get depressed about not being able to go anywhere for the foreseeable future but everybody is facing that one though not all to quite the same extent as we are as we don't have a car.

25. What two colors do you think look best together?

I think blue and white together create a lovely fresh atmosphere.

26. Popcorn or pretzels?

I don't really eat either of them very often but I like both.

The rest of the May questions behind the cut.

27 What’s one thing you can do today that will make tomorrow easier?
28 Have you ever realized too late (e.g. after you've left the house) that you've been wearing an item of clothing inside out or backwards?
29 What parenting technique do you differ from your parents about?
30 Make a list of three things you can do today to be kind to yourself.
31 If you could acquire a talent without any extra effort, what would it be?
