Mar. 18th, 2020 04:18 pmLike a lot of people lately, I imagine, life has mostly been a list of things no longer going ahead. Visits from some friends have been scrapped, and we got all of two days out of a planned two week work event before it just wasn't tenable anymore. We're not ordered to work from home just yet, but we're sure prepping for it.
I'm still in a very fortunate position overall, so minimal complaining. It's worrying, globally; I'm annoyed with the government response, nationally; and I may end up with job insecurity, eventually. Nothing much I can do about any of that. I started buying a little extra food and necessities per shop months ago - cyclone preparedness! - and so there's little I need to do there either. Just get to twiddle my thumbs and marvel at how staying at home alone feels kind of different when you have to do it. I forsee a lot of phone calls in my future.
Mostly I wish I could figure out how to dispense some of my toilet paper to someone in need. One box from Who Gives A Crap sets me up for yonks, I definitely have some to spare.
