YOU'RE STUCK AT HOME DURING A PANDEMIC.....NOW WHAT?

[D. MARQUIS]

THIS IS A NEW AND UNCERTAIN ERA WE ARE FACING AND WITH "STAY AT HOME" ORDERS FROM OUR GOVERNMENT CURRENTLY IN PLACE,IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT WE QUICKLY OBTAIN

NECESSARY SUPPLIES FOR OUR HOMES,MAKE SURE EVERYONE IS SAFE AND PRACTICING SOCIAL DISTANCING,AND BEGIN ADAPTING TO THIS NEW WAY OF LIFE. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN THOUGH? I DON'T KNOW MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE SAYING "THIS IS GREAT-I DON'T HAVE TO GO TO WORK!" KIDS MAY HAVE THOUGHT THE IDEA OF BEING OUT OF SCHOOL WOULD BE COOL-BUT BEING STUCK AT HOME AND HOME-SCHOOLED BY THEIR PARENTS NO LESS AS THEIR TEACHERS-IS A HUGE CHANGE TO ADAPT TO. SO WHAT DO YOU DO? IT'S IMPORTANT THAT COOKING, EATING,NETFLIX AND YOU TUBE DON'T BECOME OR REPLACEMENTS FOR LIVING OUR LIVES. BE SURE TO INCLUDE SOME SORT OF REGIMENT FOR KEEPING FIT,HEALTHY AND ACTIVE DURING THESE TIMES. HERE ARE SOME SUGGESTIONS OF THINGS YOU CAN DO WHILE ON HOME LOCKDOWN:

1.)ORGANIZE YOUR HOME-THIS IS THE PERFECT TIME TO GET YOUR HOME ORGANIZED RIGHT NOW. CLEAR OUT SOME BOXES OR RE-ARRANGE STORAGE AREAS. IT'S DEFINITELY A GOOD TIME TO CLEAN AND DISINFECT OUR LIVING SPACES-AS WELL AS THINGS WE USE DAILY LIKE OUR CELL PHONES AND REMOTE CONTROLS.

HERE'S SOME STORAGE PRODUCTS THAT YOU MAY FIND USEFUL

1.)FOOD STORAGE DRY FOOD STORAGE

2.)STORAGE FOR CLOTHES

3.)TOTE STORAGE

4.)COLLAPSIBLE STORAGE

2.)MAKE A CHART TO ORGANIZE TIME -FOR YOURSELF IN ADDITION CREATING ONE YOUR CHILDREN-IT'S IMPORTANT THAT TASKS ARE BEING COMPLETED TO WARD OFF BOREDOM, ANXIETY, AND DEPRESSION.

HERE'S A GREAT PLANNER BOARD I RECOMMEND:

1.) CHORE BOARD

3.)PICK UP OR LEARN A NEW SKILL ONLINE- IF YOU'RE NOT ALREADY WORKING FROM HOME, THIS IS A GOOD TIME TO SEEK OUT OPPORTUNITIES THAT CAN TEACH YOU A NEW SKILL. THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT COMPANIES CURRENTLY OFFERING COURSES FOR FREE OR AT DISCOUNTED RATES

4.) STAY INFORMED- THERE'S LOTS OF TIME RIGHT NOW TO TAKE IN LOTS OF INFORMATION ON THIS PANDEMIC. INFORMATION CHANGES DAILY AND RAPIDLY.TRY TO STAY AWAY FROM INFO THAT IS OVER-SENSATIONALIZED-OR EXTREME IN ITS DELIVERY- TO WARD OFF ADDITIONAL STRESS.
4.)START A NEW BUSINESS / SIDE HUSTLE- IF YOU FIND YOURSELF ONLINE MORE THESE DAYS, THERE'S TONS OF PLACES YOU CAN CHECK OUT THAT PROVIDE OPTIONS THAT CAN HELP YOU MAKE MONEY FROM HOME. WEBSITES AND MAGAZINES ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR FREELANCE WRITERS,ONLINE SURVEYS ARE OUT THERE PAY CASH AND/OR GIFT CARDS, AND IF YOU HAVE YOUR OWN WEBSITE OR BLOG-THIS IS AN IDEAL TIME TO GIVE YOUR PAGES A FRESH UPDATE AND/ OR ADD NEW CONTENT. IF YOU ARE ABLE TO MONETIZE YOUR WEBSITE OR BLOG-EVEN BETTER. OVERALL THIS IS A GOOD TIME TO ADD MORE TO WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOURSELF OR FOR OTHERS.
