Thursday 9 April 2020, 25 th day of SA Corona Virus, Day 14 of Lockdown 😷

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#Grateful that we are two-thirds through Round 1 of Lockdown, and that this week seems to have gone faster than the first week; that I managed to get fabulous baby spinach at Woolworths Camps Bay, after running around for it elsewhere yesterday; for another fabulous sunny day, but now the clouds are moving in, the temperature dropping for a partially wet Easter weekend to come; for being able to walk to the shops, and seeing a new family of Egyptian Geese chicks at ‘my’ stream at the Tidal Pool; for feeling peaceful; for dancing to lovely music on Kfm🎶; for my highest step count since Lockdown 👣; and for feeling happy and healthy. 🙏💙

I didn’t sleep very much, as I watched ‘Unorthodox’ on Netflix last night, watching the whole series.in one go. It’s the first movie made in Yiddish, with English subtitles, and I understood almost every word, sounding so much like German. Well worth seeing. ❤️

My Blogpost this morning was about the 16 calls and emails I’ve had to make and write, without success, to query why the Argentinian tourists in my apartment building were not placed into quarantine. It is clear that there still are huge information gaps about the Corona Virus.

It was spinach cooking time this afternoon, all my meals ready and frozen.

I had a catch up call with Henry, our Building Manager. He is missing coming to work.

And dancing and dancing and dancing to Kfm for the rest of the afternoon. 💃💃💃🎶🎶🎶

Wondering what our President Cyril will tell us at 20h00 this evening?

Corona Virus: Lockdown extended until end April, President Cyril Ramaphosa’s Address to the Nation, 9 April 2020.

The Corona Virus Lockdown, announced by our President Cyril Ramaphosa earlier this week to commence on 27 March and to continue until 16 April, is an unprecedented event in my lifetime. I am posting my daily Facebook post to journal this Corona Lockdown Journey, perhaps to serve as material for a future Book.
