Beating THE BLAH



When COVID cases started surging again last March, I felt an odd feeling taking over. It was a mix of hopeless, empty sadness and stuck-ness. I felt BLAH.

Maybe it was because we were all looking forward to our kids' online classes to be over and finally reuniting them with my parents for a much-needed vacation in the province. Dada already bought groceries and snacks for the kids to bring with them, while Lolo & Lola already stocked up their freezer with their apos' favorite seafoods and boxes of Melona ice cream. And right before the school year was over, the ECQ was implemented again and we were back to Square One. It was like Groundhog Day.

390 Days of Quarantine


08 April 2021

Everything felt 'extra' today.
Extra sad.
Extra gloomy.
Extra lethargic.
Today is Day 390 since we first started community quarantine. 

Quarantine Diaries: Day 140



Quarantine Week 20
1st of August, Saturday

As of this writing, the confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the country is barely a step away from reaching 100,000. I’m getting a bit tired of saying this, but I can’t believe how time seems to sitting on the fast-forward button and I am STILL TOTALLY surprised how it’s been 40 days since my last quarantine diary entry on the blog. We’re on Day 140, Week 20 and the local transmission of the virus seems to be speeding up.

Today was a full day attending online business meetings and hosting our online community event and so I’m attaching my milestone from yesterday to add to this entry.
