Day 45: Beautiful views from Wadestown

Took a long stroll today. Lots in my mind. I spent some time during my walk saying my prayers for special intentions for family, friends, and myself. I also spent some time musing about where I am now, the situation in New Zealand, the situation in the world. And with just a tiny bit of optimism, I also thought a bit about the future. I pray for a brighter future for all of us.

My walk was beautiful, I saw the huge moon as the sun was setting.


And at the edge of the view from the Wadestown, I saw the snow-capped hills.



Day 44: Deliveries!

Today felt like Christmas, a few of the things I ordered a week ago came today! I got a box of fresh vegetables and fruits for a good price!



Another box of dry goods came (non-essential items) and it included this nifty laptop mount. One of the perks of level-3 lockdown is the delivery services of non-essential items.



It was a busy workday, really glad these arrived today. It brought my spirits up!

Day 43: Monday again

Another start of the workweek. I am getting the hang of working from home. I do have a routine and I am getting some work done. Probably still not as productive as pre-covid19 but I am progressing to get some good outputs.

I may quite like working from home. I do enjoy getting to cook and sleep more. Let's see how the next few weeks will pan out for New Zealand. We might be moving to level-2 quite quickly.

Days 40 - 42: First level-3 weekend

Level-3 is still pretty much level-4 lifestyle for me. Nothing has changed with how my day goes. In the periphery, I notice a lot more movement and activity. The local fish-and-chip shop opened on Thursday, and they had a few customers queuing up on Friday evening. The streets are a lot busier with cars, and there are fewer people walking about the neighbourhood during the day.

I still work from home Mondays to Fridays, from 9-5; taking my lunch break at 1pm in time for the daily COVID19 update from the government. I clock out around 5 to do my daily walk. I have started exploring home delivery options, I ordered a box of vegetables which will be delivered next week. And I ordered a few things from KMart too.

My weekend will be the same as the past weekends, I will spend most of the time on this chair:
