Corona Gratitude \ud83d\ude4f<\/u><\/p>\n

#grateful for a relaxed me-day; for a sunny day but very windy; for a walk through Camps Bay, there being no litter \ud83d\ude4f, and barely any cars parked near the Tidal Pool, but more at the Beachfront, restaurants looking quite empty at lunchtime; for a movie catch-up this afternoon, with Minsky sleeping on the bed with me; for my\u00a0monthly blood sugar level testing perfectly, at 5,6; for a walk through Bakoven; for Kfm\u2019s lovely music all day, I just wanting to dance \ud83d\udc83; and for being happy and healthy. \ud83d\ude4f\ud83d\udc99<\/p>\n

The Camps Bay Community Steward car guards were given the choice of having a day off or working, so most chose the former. My Cleaning team decided the same. They should be back at work tomorrow.<\/p>\n

A fire has broken out near the Kramat beyond Bakoven, the strong wind a huge risk. I\u2019m hearing fire engine sirens as they race past my home.<\/p>\n

It has been the most special peaceful day today, and I feel light and happy. It\u2019s going to be a good year. \u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f<\/p>\n

I\u2019m back to zero with Discovery, needing 50000 points to get back to Diamond status. \ud83d\udc63 I earned my first 100 points today. \ud83d\udc99<\/p>\n

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, and lowered to Level 1 from 21 September, 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.<\/p>\n
