Things I'd Like to Do After
Being locked down is tough, especially for someone who constantly likes to move about. But I am grateful that even though we can't go out, we have enough food and meds in the house, enough money to order in, and our good health. Alhamdulillah.. Amidst the buzz between working from home and cooking, my mind can't help but wish for all this to be over with soon, so I have made a list of things to do, once this nightmare is over.
- Go travel; anywhere as long as we get to pack our bags and check into a nice hotel with good breakfast. The beach would be a bonus. I miss looking out the sea.
- Hang out at a cafe. I haven't done this in a while, especially since getting married. Partly because the hubs don't do cafe hopping, and partly because I just forgot how much I enjoyed this when I was single. But being in the house everyday for the past 21 days, made me miss this. I will need a separate list of cafes to go to after this.
- Have a walk. One of the main things I wanted to do, when we bought this house was to be able to just open the front door, and walk out to the world. Sweat a little, and just enjoy the morning fresh air (whatever that's left here in the city). On Saturdays, I would have enjoyed a walk to the open air morning market about 10 minutes from home.
- Organise a house warming. Yup, that is definitely something we need to do. I miss cooking for many people and the house needs a bit of prayer and blessing from everyone.
- Ikea shopping for the house. I need a whole load of things from here, which I can order online, but the delivery charge is ridiculously 20%! So I'll just wait patiently, and go once we can. We need a cabinet for the rest of my clothing and headscarves. We need curtains. We need bedside tables. We need deco racks. I am dying to finish the house.
I shan't be too greedy, and go beyond these top 5. Let's keep praying that this will be over soon. 💗
