Do you mean about the quarantine? Nope. No offense taken whatsoever. I would have to agree with you there. It’s the main reason my daughter, who was going to Costa Rica cancelled, because she has two young children and doesn’t want to risk it with them. My older single daughter said she wouldn’t care if she got stuck in Iceland because she would have a better chance of seeing the Northern lights.@KLS52 , i hope you're not mad at me... Are you? (Pls, don't take my words personally).
Almost everything is open on Sundays around here, just shorter hours. I walked around the Indie Market that was downtown before I went to the library. It has become a cloudy day with a cool breeze so not as nice as I had hoped.

I was surprised at the whole toilet paper interest. It had never occurred to me to stock up on that as part of an emergency plan. I guess it’s a smart idea!
I’m kind of glad she’s not going to be honest. I’m really not concerned about her catching anything but I’d be nervous if she were stuck there. Iceland has one confirmed case of a man who had visited Italy. He’s not seriously ill and is in isolation.Homemade hand sanitizer sounds like a profitable etsy type business! Now I'm reminded that I wanted to buy tea tree oil- I was just out too and thought about that store but couldn't remember why. If I'd have looked on my phone 'notes' I would have
I'd so love to go to Iceland--any of the Scandinavian countries!
I always felt cruises were a horrid idea, but I would still fly I think. I bet there would be so many cancellations! If you were a mask, and are as careful as you'd be anywhere else.....? I have to say traveling alone with these added risks doesn't sound like a good idea. But then again it is Iceland. None of those countries have had anything yet, right?
Happy International Women's Day to you also, Val, and to all the female members of VF!Happy International women's day, everyone!
Unghshu is having a walk, while mom, Gala, Liza, Elijah and David are having dinner at our place. Liza and David spent two nights at our place, therefore i had troubles with sleeping. I needed it (sleep) so desperately (because i had fever and exacerbation of my chronic tonsillitis), and i was really irritated that i was kinda deprived of sleep. Yesterday, my entire neck hurt badly, and i devoured 1/2 pack of anesthetic pills. They helped a little, but, of course, they couldn't take away the inflammation. (Nevertheless, i bought one more pack today, and continued devouring them). What did help me,- is what Sumerian gods had done to me. I was sweaty like a tzutzik after what they had done this night, but i woke up without the pain. Now my throat and tonsils are a little swollen (because it's late), but no real pain so far, no otitis (that i'd been so afraid of), almost no "clicking" sounds in my inner ear(s), and no pain in both ears (there was slight pain yesterday!
). I was freaked out yesterday, but today i feel more confident, because i feel that Sumerian gods stand up for me.
Also, this night (closer to the morning) i had a weird dream: that i talked to our composer Pyotr Tchaikovsky on a videophone and he was thanking me for something! I recognized his voice at once: i'd heard it on the record made on the Edison's phonograph (one of its first versions) in early 1890s!!! What can i say,- Tchaikovsky's voice is really unpleasant, lol.
I decided not to go for long hikes until i recover, but i had a brief walk in Cucumber district. The air was transparent and fresh,- i liked it, because it feels like spring (i mean, sunset colors have changed).
Posting my photos of Monday's hike to Telmann's district (outside the town). It was long!... yet romantic (it was warm, humid, quiet and mysterious outside).

So glad you're feeling better!Hi everyone I’m feeling much better. I’m still getting over it, I still have a cough, and I’m very tired, but I haven’t taken any cold meds for it today.
I had the veggieburger that was on the lunch menu yesterday, but unfortunately I couldn’t really enjoy it because nothing tastes good when I’m sick. I asked if the veggieburger could be on the regular everyday menu, and was told that it will likely happen. So that’s good news. One more option for me. Vegetable pizza is on the lunch menu for next Saturday.
. Luckily no one was around, and after a minute, and I found my tissues and was able to move on, I was just fine. This isn't the first time a produce aisle got to me....I want to know why! No smell of any kind....
Yeah, that's what i meant: even if a person is not afraid of the virus itself,- he has to be careful in his choice regarding a trip, in order not to get stuck in a quarantine (getting stuck somewhere is already an atribute of a ruined trip).Do you mean about the quarantine? Nope. No offense taken whatsoever. I would have to agree with you there. It’s the main reason my daughter, who was going to Costa Rica cancelled, because she has two young children and doesn’t want to risk it with them. My older single daughter said she wouldn’t care if she got stuck in Iceland because she would have a better chance of seeing the Northern lights.
Toilet paper is as essential as food for the people who depend on it. I personally think (edit: half) the world is crazy for cutting down trees in order to clean their behind.
Probably, but it wasn't noticeable (to me) then. It's really annoying not being able to get your normal weekly items!I thought that people had stocked up during Brexit.
