What has it been like living through this isolation?

​

Living through this isolation has recently sunk in last week making me feel like I am living in a cage. My partner and I can't go see our parents, siblings or nieces and nephews and we are both becoming "bored" and "stir-crazy".

With my partner being a firefighter he has been getting a lot of overtime (OT) due to this virus, so I have started to feel extremely isolated!

​

Due to the fast spread of this virus airports and borders have shut down!

Our trip out West in May has been officially canceled, and we received a 24-month voucher. 

 

What have we been doing to stay "busy"?

• We have game nights via the zoom app (we play "Jackbox" online as a family)

• We have been using FaceTime to visually see our friends and family

• Board games & cards

• Puzzles

• Bike rides

• Hiking & tons of walks

• Naps, and not feeling guilty about it!

• Working out at home (using canned goods as weights)

• HOMEWORK, it is crunch time (See my next page on how it has been experiencing this isolation while being a full-time student)
