Self Isolation - Day 10

Woke up to Sage beside the bed whining.  She had just come inside but wanted to go out again.





It’s beautiful out today!  I think maybe its supposed to rain later?








Oh, its actually not as beautiful as it looks.  HAHA, and it is supposed to rain later. I just suggested that we turn off the heat and open up some windows but maybe no.

Paige, I have to say, has been extremely helpful in the last 10 days.  Mostly doing what we are asking of her somewhere between the first time (which is actually happening) and the fourth time without too much complaining and headache.  I’m really hoping that we’re turning a corner there.  If Sophie were smart, she would pick up on that and adjust her behaviour as well - so far no.  I just said to her “can I share an observation with you?” And explained this and told her Paige’s good behaviour is actually making her normal behaviour look a little worse and it would be nice if she would try to adopt some additional helpfulness - she frowned at me and asked where Dad was. Lol.

Time to go out and do some yard work while its nice out!  10 minutes later... “I did 30 minutes of work”.  Ummm, no.  Yes! No.  YES! No.  We settled on 20 minutes and now I’ve made a list of jobs that count as work towards the hour because feeding the dogs does not count and neither does training them to go in and out of the dog door in the garage.





I spent this afternoon creating a new CRM.  I’ve never really done it before, all of my clients have just been on my system but I really should have a separate CRM so I’m doing that today.  And as I enter them all into the new CRM from my system I’m touching base with each of them just to say “just wanted to touch base and see how you are during these crazy times (or these uncertain times depending on their age and how well I know them)”.  Its not a business contact, just a how’s it going contact. That’s what I did for 4 hours today as I got it all set up, tomorrow will be faster.  40 down and 760 to go! Haha - I got nothin’ but time so its ok.

The US overtook both Italy and China today with the most number of cases of COVID-19.  Scary times, scarier still when Trump insists that the “LameStream Media is the dominant force in trying to get me to keep our Country closed as long as possible in the hope that it will be detrimental to my election success,”

I made jerk chicken and Greek salad for dinner.  Its one of my favourite dinner combos.  After dinner, which was accompanied by wine, we enjoyed a scotch and some chocolates.  Also a favourite combo - the Estate is always the one I choose and so far (because I bought him the bottle) Jay hasn’t suggested (insisted) that I try something else.

I also realized it was the 26th which means that hockey camp opened up yesterday.  The girls were undecided if they wanted to do the McKay-Hefford camp this year but with hockey being done now its kind of a necessity since try outs are in the fall.







Trev was fidgeting with my phone camera to see how he likes it compared to his Xsomething, I don’t know which one he has but before Florida I upgraded to the iPhone 11.

Then I had a spirited conversation with my family over Glop because Dad was a $h!t disturber and texted how delicious it was.  I may have called him a greedy ba$tard.  Good news is Carrie is deliverying Glop. Haha.

Numbers for today:
