Corona Gratitude 🙏

#Grateful for a lovely sunny day at 20C, but with a touch of a winter chill coming through; for an efficient writing and working morning; for being able to register for my vaccination on the Discovery website, already having registered on the Government website; for two Discovery Gameboard plays, guaranteeing me a Woolies voucher next week; for a good Status meeting at Anatoli, it being two months ago that I started working on the account 🙏; for an energizing and exhilarating two hours spent outside, first a power walk giving me 300 Discovery points, and 30000 points total for the year to date now, my goal for this week, and then bumping into Vivian Warby outside my door, the two of us doing a Bakoven walk as well as one up to the Tidal Pool 💙; for an additional 160 Discovery points for balanced healthy food buying; and for being happy, healthy, and free. 🙏💙

Today I wrote about the impact of the Lockdown over the past year on the incomes of restaurants, bars, and Take-Away outlets.

Bars worse hit than restaurants in the past year of the Corona Lockdown! Fast Food Take-Away sales static!

So many heart clouds today.

The Corona Virus Lockdown (Level 5), announced by our President Cyril Ramaphosa earlier to commence on 27 March 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, extended but relaxed on 1 February, and relaxed back to Level 1 on 1 March 2021, 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.
