Routine

My routine is obviously different from Rick being under foot.
Basically now I just clean up after him and boy it's a pain in the arse.
One can't say my hands aren't clean. Lots of soapy water when you are doing dishes.

He finished the building of this "screen" for lack of a better word to put around the a/c unit to make it less hideous on our patio. I have to paint the wood now to match the screens. I will show you a picture when it's done. He did this on Saturday and I was planning to paint it on the patio on Sunday. The weather gods did not agree. But it's not like I don't have the time to do it on another day.

I am still quite shocked at the number of people calling us.
I had a man scream at me because we weren't coming to his home.
He had an estimate done in January and he told me he was now ready to pull the trigger. Guess what? We are not going into homes that are not vacant.
I told him we can book something for a later date but we are not doing this right now with a state lockdown. We are not a grocery store or a medical facility and that is all that is allowed to be open. (oh and the liquor stores - crazy right?) So this man went on a tirade. 
Said he was selling his home. Oh, ya think you're selling right now do ya?  Idiot. He was livid. I just let him scream and he went on and on as I was typing an email to another customer. 

Obviously, this man has not taken to being kind during this pandemic he wants to fight. 
When he was done he sighed. As I began to speak since he came up for air he then hung up before I could talk. 
His profanities were priceless and ones you don't hear often so that was a nice change of pace and a bit entertaining. 
Lookin' at the bright side here.

Here are some pros and cons to quarantine:
Pros:

• I get to spend a much better time with Rick. Not 100% work, just us being us.  It's a good thing!
• If I don't get something done I can say, well I'll have the time tomorrow
• I watched a 6 episode doc with my boyfriend Craig Ferguson on Prime.  Always nice to see a boyfriend while in quarantine.
• Creative cooking by you know who
• I am watching movies and not feeling guilty that I am doing that in the middle of the day. I would never watch a movie in the middle of the day if there was laundry to do or whatever.  I like this I must admit.
• More music in the house.
• With Rick being home, the dog won't walk with me unless Rick is with us. So I walk the dog less which means no bra!!  That is worth the whole quarantine!
• No makeup and hairstyling every day.
• Made a mask. Not at all difficult without sewing and you can put a filter in it.

Cons:

• eating too much.
• drinking too much.
• can't fit into my jeans.
• feel like crap
• laying around waaaaay too much!
• I realize I need a schedule/routine and this ain't it. 
• mean customers who don't understand a pandemic. They are dropping like flies in our area and they don't get it? 
• can't find TP anywhere. 
• Rick uses gloves at work and he can't get them for work. He is down to 50 pairs left. That is not enough for him to finish out the next 2 weeks at the empty hotel. 

Overall I like my life in quarantine. As I said yesterday if it weren't for the pesky death thing and financial ruin I am fine being stuck in the house with Rick and Izzy. I love our little world. 
But I need to focus and I want this week to be more productive than last. 
I also need to find TP and some gloves for Rick. Big goals.  
My other 2 goals are that when this is over my office will be freshly painted and new. And lastly my most difficult goal is to get out of this not weighing more than an elephant.
