So I requirement you to checked out this as well as reassure me that all is forgiven. K. Thanks.
Confession – Coronavirus Quarantine edition Week 1
Updated to add: I wrote this before California governor announced the ‘stay at home’ order throughout the specify yesterday.
(This blog publish series utilized to be on Thursdays, however any type of day is a great day to confess, right?)
I mention something I bought on Amazon however provided the truth that I bought toilet paper last week as well as the shipment has been delayed due to ”weather or natural disaster” – I don’t understand when/if I’ll really get it.
I’ve heard Amazon is prioritizing important products for shipment as well as toilet paper should be on that light, right?
Anyway.
My point is – I don’t have toilet paper. as well as I don’t understand if I’ll get the other product I bought yesterday.
I feel the requirement to put ‘week 1’ in the title as there may be a great deal of confessions to come if the social distancing circumstance stays in location for a long time. I hope not though…
Okay, back to the confessions…
>> I was wrong about living at AirBnBs (or similar rentals) as I looked for a new place.
Looking for short term rentals as I’m searching for a long term location to buy or rent takes a great deal longer as well as is a great deal more costly than I realized.
Living out of my suitcase while looking for a new condo / apartment / location to online – is NOT as fun as well as simple as I believed it’d be. looking for a location on AirBnB, VRBO or even genuine estate listings takes A great deal of time.
I’ve booked locations for 2 to 5 weeks at a time. as well as as a stay gets close to the end I begin looking for the next (local) area I’d like to inspect out for a while (this is in an effort to get to understand neighborhoods to see where I’d like to buy or rent long term).
Well, looking for a location that’s in the area, cost range, runner friendly, accepts pets, risk-free as well as offered for the dates I want it – takes days. I’ve spent a number of hours each day browsing all the vacation as well as rental sites when it’s time for my next temporary move.
A great deal of locations don’t take dogs, don’t have at least a couple of weeks available, are method as well expensive, aren’t in a risk-free location… so I have to keep adjusting my browse area, price, dates, etc… in really hopes of booking something.
>> I still like minimalism however I like maximalism when it comes to food as well as toilet paper.
The minimalist life is great! except it’s not perfect when there’s a around the world pandemic as well as orders to quarantine yourself at home. I utilized to have a completely stocked pantry as well as plenty of additional emergency products as well as toiletries. however living with less means I got rid of so much of those things I kept on hand ‘just in case’.
>> I don’t have a bed, however I just gotten a treadmill…
I’m moving into my parents’ studio apartment casita. When I moved out of my condo I donated or gave away all my furniture. as well as I’ve been staying furnished locations so it’s not a thing. however now that I’m moving into a longer term location – I requirement a bed.
And in my defense – I did stop at IKEA to look at them yesterday. however I was turned away since of the COVID19 situation.
So I did what any type of red-blooded redheaded Mexican marathon runner would do… I went house as well as bought a treadmill.
I heard that there may be a ‘shelter in place’ order as well as I got scared that I wouldn’t be able to run. So I bought a treadmill as well as went looking for my air mattress to utilize as a bed for now.
Priorities, right?
>> I’ve never verified an appt in my life.
When I have a dentist appointment, the office phone calls as well as texts me to verify a week before the arranged time. Then, they phone call as well as text once again a few days before as well as the day before. The messages ask me to respond to verify the appointment. I never confirm. I don’t understand why, I just can’t.
I feel like if I verify something will come up as well as I’ll miss the visit as well as then – not only did I miss the appointment, however now I’m likewise a liar since I verified it!!
So I just don’t respond at all.
But now with the Coronavirus social distancing circumstance I’m believing my upcoming visit is going to be cancelled as well as all I can believe about is whether or not they’re going to message me to cancel or if it’s still scheduled.
Note: One time one of the receptionists full on asked me why I didn’t respond at all to any type of of the messages… I utilized to go every month when I was doing Invisalign. I assumption they were getting annoyed by my lack of response month after month. That’s why I even understand it was an problem – before her comment I just believed it was simple breezy as well as nobody cared.
>> I gotten a 500 piece puzzle.
Apparently I was feeling extremely ambitious about my puzzle making capabilities and/or believed I’d get bored extremely quick with the quarantine. So I ducked into Marshall’s to discover some board games to play with my family. The only thing they had was a 500 piece puzzle.
Note: I’ve never put together a puzzle myself. The concept kinda got in my head since my friend’s mom got a puzzle for Christmas as well as we started it since she wasn’t super into it.
So when I saw the puzzle at Marshall’s as well as realized it was my only choice – I gotten it! as well as now I truly requirement to put it together because
a. I’m genuinely curious exactly how difficult it is
b. I believe it would be a great exercise for my brain (which usually only thinks about running & eating)
c. I have nothing else to do as I can’t even sleep during the quarantine since I DON’T have A BED.
