Journey through Covid-19

28 May 2020 Day 52 of Circuit Breaker Stay-at-Home We are into Week 8 of stay-at-home.

I have not taken any public transport and I walked around my neighbourhood only to buy take-away food and groceries. Each time when I left my home, I kept reminding myself to wear a face mask.

This is the new routine. What else have changed?

- I stop wearing wrist watch. Wrist watch is a hindrance when washing my hand.

- I wash my hands thoroughly when I reach home using the seven-steps method.

- We cannot get our cheap toiletries (via parallel imports) from neighbourhood shops.

Gone are the days, we went down to Peoples’ Park for cheap toiletries.

- We made more on-line purchases for delivery to our home.

- We take care of our health more, so that we need not go to our family doctor.

- Same goes with our oral-health hygiene, so that we need not go to our dentist.

- We hope not to damage things at home so we are more careful when handling them.

Getting repairs or buying new ones to replace is a pain.

- Friends on WhatsApp have been very active in sharing posts.

- I read more e-books borrowed from NLB.
