By the end of the lockdown, a lot of people will need to go shopping for new clothes. Maybe one or two sizes bigger. Did you notice how tempting it is to snack or munch more often than before? During this pandemic, when you are stuck at home, you tend to eat more. Why?
I blame the fridge for having all those goodies there! Also, I blame the pyjamas. They felt so comfy all these weeks, just to see that jeans don`t fit anymore! Betrayal, right there!
How many of you, poker players, missed having your regular poker nights with friends? You know, those Friday nights when you used to go see your friends, have a drink and lots of fun playing poker? It did not matter if you won or not, you were out of the house with your buddies. That was your ticket to the old-self, a reminder that you used to be a fun and social creature before becoming a parent.
Did you miss the game enough to teach your kids how to play it? How did that go for you?
If you didn`t watch at least five seasons from a series on Netflix by now or at least one movie per day in the past six weeks, you can not say you have been in quarantine. You may want to replace the batteries of your remote control one of these days! You definitely do not want the remote control to die when you need it the most!
By now, you may found out already that your summer plans may have to wait for a while. Meanwhile, you can go practice your swimming skills in the tub or the kiddies` pool and prepare to get tanned on your balcony. Make sure you order your sun-tan lotion today, as it may take a few good weeks to have it delivered!
One of the benefits of social distancing is that you can enjoy having an extra drink without being nagged about it about your partner. Let`s admit it! Your alcohol intake has increased since you are stuck at home. Keep in mind that your liver enzymes may have gone up too!
As schools plan to re-open in a few weeks, you may want to stock up on those masks and hand sanitizers gels or wipes. We all need how children are germs and bacteria magnets. That`s in case you will be lucky enough to find some available. As for the prices, expect to pay an extra buck, cause everyone has to make a living, including corporations.
