Day 9 of Quarantine

What a glorious Autumn day. It would have been ideal for a group bike ride or even for just a nice walk in the sunshine. Unfortunately I am still in quarantine, so neither of those is an option for me.

I awoke early, as has become my new daily routine. After a solitary breakfast I went back to finish the painting I had started yesterday. At least my time in quarantine won't have been a total waste of time.

I am not sure how many phone calls I received or how long I spent on the phone, but it must have been at least two hours. This has become my new normal, but at least it allows me to maintain contact with the friends that are so important to me.
