It is week 6 of being on lockdown and the wariness on all of our parts is starting to set in. The kids are getting harder and harder to wangle into doing school work. Lauren is getting up around lunchtime. All three of them are spending WAY more time on electronics than the should be. It is hard to convince them to do much else. I will say that Drew has been outside playing football quite a bit, although today is a rubbish day weather wise. Alison is of course doing her gymnastics all the time. She has been good about doing her conditioning twice a week, although not without a bit of coaxing.
As for me, I have been working from home my three days a week (with the exception of the 2 week Easter holiday), which makes things a bit more challenging with trying to get the kids occupied. I have exercised every day in April so far. It has been very helpful to have my local fitness company who is doing 11 online classes per week so I am able to do some HIIT, Pilates/Yoga, strength training and circuits amongst my runs. I have also been doing a lot of reading as well as doing my new favourite type of puzzle, the codefinder. I bought a small book and I have nearly finished it! I also have weekly pub quizzes on-line with my quiz team: I enjoy having something to look forward to every Tuesday night at 8 PM.
As a family, we have played some Scattergories, which is fun with the kids and we are almost the entire way through Season 4 of Modern Family.
