I haven't watched the video of George Floyd dying. I have read about it and seen some stills but I haven't watched it. For the first time in months the focus on the news is not Covid-19 but the protests in the USA. A friend in Boston posted to his Instagram stories a list of …
Tough.
I find myself struggling more with the deescalation and return to normal life than the quarantine itself. Of course I had bad days but I think I did pretty well for the most part. And with every new phase that we enter I have to readjust and take on new information (I know we all …
Spanish lessons.
Here's me thinking that my Spanish, although extremely far from perfect, wasn't terrible. There's always room for improvement but I reckon I don't ALWAYS make a fool of myself when having a conversation (but fully accept that I will do so more than I'd necessarily like). Yesterday, after knowing Lucía for over 2 months, something …
I’ve stopped counting the days.
I don't even know if we're still in lockdown/quarantine/confinamiento. I don't know what to call it at this stage. "Life?" We entered Phase 1 this week which means that bars and restaurants have been allowed to open and that we can meet in groups of up to 10. This seems like a bit much to …
62?
It still makes sense to count the days even though we're allowed out to exercise right? I'm home by 9am and inside for the rest of the day so I'm going to say yes. It was a struggle to get out of bed this morning. Last week was so warm that I didn't need a …
60.
I forgot to actually post this yesterday (May 13th..) 13.01: I had to double check the number of days. I think it's 60. Math has never been my strong point. I think most of Spain has entered what they call phase 1 but Granada has stayed in phase 0 with Madrid (and other places..) because …
48 days and we’re allowed outside!
At 6.20am my alarm went off. While I didn't jump out of bed with tons of energy, I was certainly excited about going outside. We have two time slots in which we're allowed to exercise: 6-10am or 8-11pm. The sunrise isn't until 7.17 but I wanted to see just how dark it really was in …
Day 47.
WE ARE ALLOWED TO GO OUTSIDE TOMORROW. Adults are allowed to exercise between 6-10am and 8-11pm (the daytime is being left for the kids who were allowed out from last week and the elderly). We've known that it might be a possibility for the last week or so but now it has been confirmed and …
But Who You Be, Really?
