Life Lately


 

It's basically lock down time again y'all!

Technically my city is in the red zone because 8 months into the pandemic we're now introducing colour systems. We'll probably be in the red until well after Christmas I suspect with maybe a lock down afterwards. Oh the world is full of fun possibilities innit?

What this means for me is I'm back to working from home and stressing about if I am gonna get the coronavirus from the heightened cases of community spread. Yippee!

All jokes aside we're pretty lucky that the only thing we've sufffered from in our house is a case of boredom. I'm am happy to be officially missing out on the days of having to heat up my car before I go to work and bad weather is actually super nice when you don't have to go out in it.

So what have I been up to lately?

- My new favourite thing to do is to post up on our coach on weekend afternoons. I pull the tv out as far as I can on it's wallmount, get my weighted blanket, grab my knitting and a big cup of coffee and just watch movies or Netflix. Bonus points if it's snowing outside! Recently I've been watching the Queen's Gambit and last weekend I watched The Family Stone. 

- We've gotten some snow around here finally and I want to give some winter hiking a try! Hopefully the snow sticks around till this weekend and Jordan and I can try it out on a trail we're familiar with. I just think it will be so freaking beautiful!

-We got all of our Christmas shopping done! Woohoo!

- Our Christmas tree is up and it has really been contributing to my cozy, weekend rituals! I'm working on finding ways to keep Pete out of it. I've tried putting orange and lemon essential oils in a spray bottle with water and spraying it on the tree and that still hasn't stopped him. I'm gonna try putting orange peels in and around the tree and see if that works. He truly is a demon.

I'm so glad December is finally here. We've only got a few weeks left of work and then it's Christmas time! After new years Jordan and I are getting away to a little Airbnb and I'm super looking forward to that. We love getting away in the winter and extending Christmas break by a few days doesn't sound too bad either.

Hope you're finding ways to stay busy and sane out there pals!
