Thursday 12 August 2021, Day 17 of Level 3 😷

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#grateful for rain this morning and then sunshine on a very cold 14C day; for staying home all day, mostly in bed, having sore joints and cold shivers, having to cancel two meetings today, the first time in years that I have felt ill; and for my cats keeping me company 😻😻. 🙏💙

My Blogpost today was the review of 185 on Beach in Gordon’s Bay.

185 on Beach is literally … on the beach in Gordon’s Bay, superb views and service!

Tomorrow it is exactly 14 days after my second vaccination. I have felt light nausea since then, and today the electric blanket has been on almost all day. 🙏

My step count is almost non-existent today. 😱👣

SA Corona Status:  2 568 511 cases 76247 deaths 9 185 756 vaccinations

The Corona Virus Lockdown (Level 5), announced by our President Cyril Ramaphosa earlier to commence on 27 March 2020 and to continue until 16 April, subsequently extended to 30 April, lowered to Level 4 from 1 May, lowered to Level 3 from 1 June, lowered to Level 2 from 18 August, lowered to Level 1 from 21 September, and moved back to Adjusted Level 3 from 29 December,  extended to 15 February on 11 January 2021, extended but relaxed on 1 February, and relaxed back to Level 1 on 1 March 2021, moved back to Adjusted Level 2 on 31 May, moved back to level 3 on 16 June, and moved back to Adjusted Level 4 on 28 June, extended by two weeks on 11 July, and returned to Level 3 on 26 July, 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.
