I am leaning towards.letting my hair go as well. Good time I think to do. Hard for me because I am still working. Some things I am glad to get a break from doing. Some I needed a break from going to. I have been getting things accomplished and finding out some things I can do without. Staying home I can live with but the severity of this pandemic is heartbreaking and that bothers me.

@Roscoe the Rascal Forgot to mention I am resignning from my job next week and that will make it easier to grow my hair out.

I'd like to get my businesses back on track...taking a few jewelry appointments and seeing makeup clients. I'm missing fajitas at my favorite Mexican restaurant. I need a few things that need to be seen, tried on...running shoes, bras, summer slacks. Oh, my gym...really miss that. The book store to browse in is fun. Taking my time to food shop and choose what I want to purchase from full shelves. I'm looking forward to spending a few hours running my usual errands that I used to moan about...no more complaining. 

 

I don't mind the time I stay home when it's MY choice. I don't like the feeling of "HAVE TO stay home". 


@Shanus   I like your comment about food shopping. I really didn't think about it but you are right, full shelves and taking your time.

@panda1234   I used to plan meals for the week, enjoy looking for the ingredients I needed. Sometimes I'd see new items and change the recipes. I can't do that when just rushing through for essential items.

Nothing much would change we are homebodies, I haven't been inside a grocery store for over a year. I mostly shop online but the top thing on my list is to Hug my daughter and son in law.  

 

I am hoping a lot of people change the way they live from here on out because the old normal clearly was not working.

 

I will no longer be shaking hands and I will no longer be hugging indiscriminatey.

 

I would like a haircut at some point but I am not willing to take that risk and won't be for a very long time.

Aside from the obvious haircut, pedicure, toilet paper, sit down to eat and have someone wait on me etc. I want to drive about 90 minutes up north and visit my favorite winery. Have a couple of glasses of wine, cheese plate, sit outside by the tables with umbrellas, get away from the summer heat and enjoy the scenery.

Re: I'm Starting a List of What I'm Going to Do When.....

I'm not really making a list right yet. I feel in my area it is too soon. We look like we have at least another two weeks before they may be starting to loosen things here. 

 

And I'm not going to be one of the first back out and about among the masses. I'm going to play this by ear, and wait and see how it goes with the possibility of a spike in cases once it all starts to open up. 

 

I think the opening will be very soft and slow. I think some things like concerts and full sport stadiums are not on the horizon yet, opening of things like restaurants are going to be with very limited capacity allowed etc. 

 

I guess I'm going to let others be the test cases and see how it works. 

 

I will still go to the store every few weeks, hopefully be able to hit the garden centers/greenhouses to get mulch and plants for the garden, but I will be laying low for another month past the soft opening I expect in our state.
