Total lockdown, day 6 of 7

in #covid3 years ago

The city of Da Nang is completely locked down as in you can't even go outside of your house for any reason at all. I suppose they would make an exception if the building was on fire or you were having a heart attack but that is about it.

Nadi and I spend our days doing what we always do, me sitting at my computer, with her on or near the balcony keeping a lookout for dogs, birds, and anything else that might want to invade our territory.

Thankfully the construction noise has stopped for the first time since I moved here last February. I'm sure they'll get right back on that just as soon as they are allowed to even though the hundreds of buildings we currently have are 80% vacant.

The food situation isn't very dire for my household at the moment, but it appears as though I may have actually purchased a bit too much bacon if you can imagine there being such a thing.

Therefore, my bacon sandwiches have been getting piled high and i have at least a few extra strips with any eggs / bacon combo for breakfast. Basically everything I have to eat has bacon involved in it and i still have more than 5 kilos of the stuff in the freezer.

I am getting dangerously low on wine though.

I'm not a fancy pants when it comes to wine and this Chilean bottle costs around $8 and is just fine with me. However, this is the last bottle that I have.

We did get some good and some bad news yesterday. The bad news is this:

So what once felt like it was going to be the last day of no going outside has become the midway point again and honestly, there is no reason to think that after those 3 days they won't extend it another 4 because the world just loves that "2 weeks" threshold that seems to be the solution to anything Covid related.

The good news is that we have received word that more delivery options are meant to become available starting today including WINE! Nothing compliments a totally loaded bacon sandwich like a nice glass of cheap Chilean wine so I suppose I'll just have to take what little they will let me have.

So I suppose the title of this should actually be "Total Lockdown, day 6 of 10."

At this point the only thing i want them to accomplish is to get the airports back open so i can get the fuck out of here.
