It's day four of isolation. Only day four?! It's crazy when you think of it like that. I've been in WA for almost two weeks now which has actually gone really quickly. Ever since I was three I have been coming to dads for holidays. They were never any longer than two weeks and it always flew by so quickly. I used to bawl my eyes out every time I left - crying driving to the airport, crying saying goodbye to dad, crying the whole plane ride and crying even more when mum came to pick me up from the airport and drive me home (sorry mum, I do love you). It's such a short amount of time when you think there's 52 weeks in a year.  

This time I don't know how long I'll be staying for. I know it will be for at least two months but it could be for up to 6 months. My only plans are to be home for one of my best friend, Amy's, wedding in October. It's looking like we are beginning to flatten the COVID-19 curve in Australia. The news is becoming more bearable to watch as the positivity and hope increases. However, I can't see this lockdown lasting any less than six months. I really don't think that we will be truly 'normal' again until a vaccine is created. If we flatten the curve but then open the borders again, what's to say that it won't just unflatten again. Then we go back into lockdown, flatten the curve again and restart the cycle. Hopefully in a few months the states will have it under control though so we can begin to travel within the state again. I would love to be able to go and visit all of my other rellies. 

Life's pretty good here. Riley is sitting next to me writing some story about a day in the life of him as a $5 note or something random. When he does his school work, I've been doing my blog which is great motivation for both of us. We're starting to get into a bit of a routine now. Wake up, bike ride, workout, breakfast, school work/blog, lunch, chill time, dinner. Each day we've been trying to do something fun and different like walking in the bush, rating houses in the street whilst spotting chalk rainbows, doing puzzles, setting up a worm farm or flying my drone. The other morning I spent two hours scrolling the internet trying to buy a puzzle. Everywhere was sold out! Luckily my nan had a whopper collection and left them outside her door for us to pick up. It's so weird talking to her through the door and not being able to hug her or anything after not seeing her for so long. It's people who live on their own who I worry about during this time. Thank goodness for Netflix and the internet though. I feel as though people are connecting with each other more than they ever have during this whole crisis. Tonight I have a trivia date night on Houseparty  with the uni girls which I'm excited for. Might even pop the champas!
