Life in Quarantine During Covid 19

This has been my hashtag for the past weeks.

People keep posting this status thing in Facebook about the general mood of the period. So I'm going to do something else.

This is my documentation of the things that have happened since this all began.

Day one for me began the week my kids' classes were suspended. And since this is on-going I suppose I'll write recollections I'd the past weeks until I catch up with my now.

I've also decided that I'm probably not going to stick to my daily topic mission. It just made it harder for me to manage blogging, to be honest, and I'd like to write more regularly rather than push myself to stick to daily subjects that I often post up to weeks late. It just feels too strange.

So... There we go. It's April and we're going through another reset. Hopefully I can stick to my blogging better this time around.

Not quite what I had in mind

I thought I'd be writing more since we're in quarantine, practically a lockdown, honestly, but here I am, SILENT.

It's not for a lack of activity. Frankly, I don't think I've been this busy in a while.

I started with this.

I was preparing some items to product shoot for Anique-Anique MNL. It was one of the biggest ironies of this week because being in quarantine meant I had the opportunity to really just figure out my set up and even leave things as they were set up because I was shooting.

But then this happened.

Our hospitals ran short of protective gear for a number of reasons, not the least of which was the hoarding of face masks that happened weeks ago.

So what do the Anique-Anique girls do? Yep, I volunteered us to do something about it and now we're helping produce these makeshift masks to help protect our frontliners--our very precious healthcare workers.

This doesn't mean the homeschooling has stopped though. It's going strong, actually. And my 7yo has finished the chapter he's supposed to complete. Now he just needs to finish his next project.

It's only been a week since the community quarantine was announced and it's worrying how we are not coping well, locally. Caught flat-footed, there are a number of factors that brought us to this point, not the least of which is the poverty that is spread all over the country.

It's going to be a long 3 more weeks.
