What have you done, achieved, had to do you probably wouldn't have otherwise?

Walked, averaging 6.2 miles a day so far in May, (like walking to Derby ), averaged 4miles per day April, lost a stone.
Cut own hair, easy really, shaved a grade 2.
Cut dogs hair with clippers with groomers shut, easy clip really as Springer Spaniel, and hair not curly.
Talked to wife.
Drunk more water, one beer a day, eaten less.
Queued outside a supermarket and chip shop.
Ordered 2 Sunday dinners delivered to your house for the last 6 weeks, Master Builder West End £9.95, recommended, now on rolling Sunday order
Watched no News programmes on TV for 2 months, it's as if nothing else happens.
Not put any petrol in car, as haven't driven further than a 5 mile journey.

Probably more, but you lot got any more?

Tidied up the garden, planted lots of shrubs, flowers and vegetables, laid a path and patio, re-decorated inside and out, plumbed in the wash house and outhouse, insulated and drylined the same, grown hair and beard and now look like mad John who lived in the green wood. Avoided people, watched nature in the garden, drank beer, read books, listened to music and the radio, played with guitar, spoke to wife, skyped with absent friends and family, shopped and queued, played fetch ball with dogs, walked on the beach. Not done much really.
Haven't been bored or missed football not even once.

How have you mabaged to find the time to come and post on here so often with that workload?
Did you get your money back for the flights or does your accountant sort those out? Just asking .....

Go for two long walks each day.
Not lost any weight as I’ve been using the hot tub most nights = drinking a lot.
Have an online Spanish class every day.
Painted the fence in my garden (two coats).
Painted and redesigned the garage.
Camped out in the garden for a night, good laugh.
Drunkenly bought a load of crap solar lights etc for the garden. When it goes dark it looks like Vegas.
Had a Sunday roast each week.
Complete an Online Emotional Intelligence course, thought it was going to be rubbish but it was quite good.
Loads of zoom quizzes, again thought they’d be pants but they are a good laugh.
I’ve been furloughed for the past four weeks so took on the cleaning duties as we had to stand the cleaner down.
Back in work Monday, booked in the cleaner for Tuesday.

All in all, I’m doing okay, very grateful to be in a decent position financially and mentally, looking forward to the future.
