My Iso Bubble: My Kids, Georgia (3.5) and Harry (1.5) who miss the playgrounds more than anything. My Partner Phil, who is working full time in our garage. Toby our Black Lab.
Iso Outfit of Choice (obviously include sunnies): At the beginning it was shorts and long or short sleeve t, but now it’s getting too cold! So. It’s the same but with pants. Has anyone seen the videos about jeans? “what are jeans?” Hair is in a “Mum Bun” but it does at least get brushed. Tom Ford Sabrina 0764!
Something I’ve done for the first time in Lockdown: Made Playdoh – if anyone needs the recipe let me know. It seems to have lasted and I find bits of it every day smooshed into the floors and furniture. I also tried to make ‘Butter Icing”, it took me ages and tasted yuck – so I won’t be doing that again.
The thing I find most enjoyable: Is enjoyable the right word in these circumstances? I think we can still enjoy what we do each day despite the reason we are doing it. I’m loving spending time with Georgia & Harry – I’m going to miss them when we are no longer #WFH!
The thing I find most challenging: #WFH is challenging with 2 small kids, hence the reason you get emails from me late at night and in the weekends! I will reply just not always straight away. Also snacks – there are too many snacks and most of them aren’t even yummy!
Top Tips: Make contact with an old friend you haven’t actually talked to in ages! Ring them and have a chat don’t just message them. Also, this one came from my sisters hairdresser, give your hair a break from heat and let it dry naturally and no straighteners. Apparently its good for it, you just need to be able to handle the frizz. Mum Buns are good for this.
Exercise or What’s that? This has varied over the weeks! Last week I did a couple of runs and even had a PB over 5kms. The trick was to have more down than uphill on the route (by walking up hill before you start) and my magic potion – MATCHA – it tastes so bad but is actually magic giving you lots of energy. But this week all I have managed are some walks around the block with the kids and Toby. Maybe tomorrow another run…….
Netflix must watch: Finished Season 3 of OZARK, have started Tiger King but it seems crazy! Line of Duty is great if you like Crime Dramas too. We really need some comedy suggestions please…
Zoom or House Party or FB Messenger: So House Party seems like it would be awesome but the connection is always bad – so have used FB Messenger which seems better. I think it’s something I will continue to do after lockdown too. Yet to try ZOOM.
My first non- essential activity/purchase: A trip to the beach – a big walk even if its COLD by then. And something to eat that i didn’t have to make myself :-0
Photos ; Me looking fancy as, in the garage hooked up to Phils #WFH set up, Georgia & Harry also #WFH on my screen from the office. in the tent in the garden (this shot just to show the sunnies).
