Hoo boy. Have we got ourselves a situation! It’s been a while since we’ve last asked you our usual weekly question so now that we’re back, let’s ask the most important question of them all:
How are you???
To say that it's been a crazy month (has it been longer? nobody knows) seems like an understatement but personally, I've calmed myself down a bit from consuming as much anxiety-inducing news and have found some relief in what seems to be everyone's go-to hobby now: cooking. So to answer my own question, I am fine... for now. Ha!
Now it’s your turn! What have you been spending your free time on? Any new things you started doing? Tell us!
i’m happy to know you’re fine
it was a long month for me, but the situation gave a chance to spend me free time on learning and reading. this way i’ve joined your community, guys.
a breath of fresh air for me during all this time was and remains my dog Snoop. He is the one who is next to me at every moment.
Hope you’re all ok, guys! Stay safe!
Hey Admin…good to hear ur doing well.I’m almost into my 4th week of our National Lockdown in South Africa.Apart from starting the Undergraduate Senior part of the course which I’m loving,I’ve also taken to learning to play the guitar.It was given to me a few years ago by a friend of mine and all it did was collect dust.After a good clean and a lil tuning I’m well on my way to putting this lockdown to some good use…P.S…cooking is also an excellent distraction in these uncertain times.Take care and stay safe.
I hope all is well with everyone, but I will admit, this time away from work has allowed me to really start studying trading systems and other ways to be a successful trader. I just don’t have even close to as much time to dedicate to trading when I am working my normal full time job. So I am enjoying the break. I get to do what I love.
Lockdown’s boring. But that does mean I have spent less money on eating out and trips.
Right now I am doing some better quality focused thinking about trading - cutting out unhelpful levels of detail.
I’m exercising very regularly - either Nordic walking or cycling for an hour a day - and also some lifting weights. I’m eating better food and drinking good wine, I’m losing weight.
I’m reading things I enjoy and studying chess more seriously. I’ve really enjoyed going back to ARMA 3 and really taking it more seriously for more enjoyable outcomes. The sex has dried up but I’ll get back to that as soon as possible.
Good you have not succumbed to the temptations of online ordering!
Had to look up Nordic walking! Good for you that you’ve lost weight. I think a lot of people will come out of the lockdown with a good chunk of poundage on them, which can’t be good in the long run so I’m happy it’s been the opposite for you!
Hmmmmmmm. I think being cooped up in our house has given me so much time to think about everyone and everything. And usually, that’d be a good thing. Self-reflection and all. But idk. I think this time is different.
