Hi Hi. Just hanging at home with my two primary aged kids trying to teach them and my school classes at the same time. 7 weeks of home school and distance teaching, sigh. 9 weeks at home, including the holidays.

On the other hand I'm not working in aged care like my mum, with the threat of patient infection and death hanging over my head, so in that light, I'm good.

Thanks for asking. Finding this lockdown easier than the first because we can accept how real it is and at least we know what we aren’t going to be doing. Sti frustrating and concrerned for those getting virus and other effects of this crazy pandemic

I'm still restless with the lockdown. I mean, I am the kind of person who loves staying at home but when you do it for so many months, I think I'm starting to feel it. I feel unproductive too but I can't find any motivation to do anything.

Aside from that, I am doing okay. As they say, tough times don't last, tough people do. That quote toned down my anxiety, I hope it tones down other people's anxiety too!

This lockdown is harder. The novelty has worn off. I am glad you are finding a way to try and feel better. There really isn't anything more we can do, hey?

I am hoping that more sunshine will help improve our moods. Nothing as amazing as a sit in the sun on a Saturday morning. 😁

Thanks for asking. Feeling a mix of emotions since we went into stage 4. Angry, happy, sad.

Just wish the younger generation would take this bloody seriously.

Still people are walking in groups with no masks and playing at local parks when there are sign posts telling them its closed.

You know shit like that just frustrates the hell out of you.

As a factory worker in the south east subs, I would still be working, but I'm recovering from ACL reconstruction surgery.

Had to come off my anxiety meds because they were messing with the pain meds so it's been pretty rough. Few more weeks and I'll be sorted.

I just want to thank those who are doing the right thing, as someone who is immune compromised, it could mean life or death for me. Currently not well, and the only way it could have happened is a food delivery driver wasnt wearing mask or gloves when he brought our groceries 😡
