Wednesday 6 October 2021, Day 6 of Level 1 😷

Corona Gratitude 🙏

#grateful for a beautiful wind-free day at 26C; for an early morning walk to Bakoven, before the day ran away with me; for the amazing luck of winning another 750 points in the Discovery Gameboard play today, the second week in a row; for a busy day, meeting Janet Pillai at Zest for a Breakfast meeting, for her ‘Jetsetting with Janet’ radio show on Radio Helderberg and Zest becoming a partner for it; for a Zest Communications meeting; for staying at Zest and catching up on other work; for a summer ice cream treat at The Dairy Den; for a good Utopia and Anatoli Status meeting, photographing clients, Heide Kallis celebrating her birthday with a Tasting Menu lunch; and for being happy, healthy, and free. 🙏💙

I reposted the 2021 World’s 50 Best Restaurants List Blogpost this morning.

Whilst shopping at Pick n Pay yesterday, I bought white mushrooms, two punnets costing R35, in the colour pink, in support of breast cancer survivors, R1 per punnet going to #ReachforRecovery. A great campaign. 💗

I’m drained, waking up early this morning, so off to bed early.

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,  returned to Level 3 on 26 July, returned to Level 2 on 13 September, and returned to Level 1 on 1 October 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.
