5 weeks – wiped out!!

by Surene Esterhuizen

A few days ago, I took my calendar and wrote LOCKDOWN all over the month of April, and the last week of March! I was shocked at that moment as I have literally wiped out more than a month of 2020!

I then took my May calendar and cleared everything on there that I will not be able to do during Level 4 Lockdown and all that was left was my Zoom meetings for Mannatech (which may deliver their health supplements during lockdown to your front door, I may add).

PSSST: those little numbers in red is the countdown to the big 50!

I follow a Facebook page Tea Time with Lianne and her post for today was: C word for today – Calendar! And I knew I had to write something about my calendar and how I feel about wiping out a month!

It’s crazy to think more than 5 weeks has passed already, and many of us post on social media how we are literally only sitting or lying around reading, binge watch movies / series on Netflix, Showmax and the likes or reading. My one colleague said that she will have to get used to sitting up for a normal workday again.

Some people did some proper spring-cleaning of their homes and can sit back feeling self-satisfied that they actually spent their time worthwhile. I’m not one of those … rather one of these that Aunty Acid portrays to the right.

We do not know how many weeks Level 4 will be and I have decided during this past long weekend that I have to write something to do in my diary every day and actually do it … and tick it off!! That way my next few weeks will be more productive and it will keep me sane … and out of trouble!

What do you do to keep you sane?

Lockdown greetings,
