Self containment going well.  Meeting a colleague/friend for a game of pickleball later (I hope that doesn’t make me sound like I’m 85...).   No contact sport....   Separated by a net, so it should be good!

As long as you stay out of the kitchen and Purell every service change you should be good.

I figure golf should be good as long as you keep it to a twosome with a fellow self isolator from the same household..

We used separate balls.  No touching the other person’s balls.   

I stumbled into the kitchen a time or two...

Mental health challenges coming up.

Dealing with my team & organization on the phone all day long is challenging in ways I couldn't anticipate.  Also trapped in with just Easy & Joan isn't great for us.   :'(

I'm available for 1-on-1s if you want to chat/vent

Canada's top doctor says it might be months before we know whether social distancing measures being employed across the country right now are slowing the spread of COVID-19.


Get ready for spending months with them 24/7.

We do, once or twice a day.  Mostly work is ratcheting up my stress.  Trying to talk to my team's to get work done with sparse internet.

Sparse internet?   Don’t you live in the biggest city in Canada?

We're not doing well.  Not having any other social contacts is wearing on our relationship.  I resent my space being invaded and don't want to share.  Easy is teething and randomly starts screetching at maximum decibel and frequency.

I can't think of a way out of this, unless we take turns going to the park alone.

Wow...  6 days in.

You may want to strongly consider talking to a counselor.
