I use the word "working" very loosely...In fact It's probably a complete and utter lie, but one I'll perpetuate with little to no remorse.
I'm on the farm working as I decided earlier today that sitting in my home office was not going to excite me much at all today. I grabbed my stuff and headed up to the farm to pretend to work there. I say pretend because during the day there's not much to shoot however if I'm on the farm I have to have a gun with me; That's the rules. If I don't then there's no reason for me to be there.
I had to get away from the daily grind and this is a good way to do so; It's fairly close to home and one of the only places I can be assured I'll not run into anyone...A few cows maybe, deer and kangaroos but no people.
I have a zoom video meeting with the entire office in a couple hours, one in which the Directors will talk a little about the COVID-19 situation as far as their business goes, which should clarify a few points for a staff feeling a little out of the loop currently. I spoke with one of them on the phone today and have been told I will lose 35% of my income, effectively immediately, and that's just for a start...If things get much worse they will stand people down, myself included. Considering that my wife's income (our business) is one of those on the list of forced closures as of midnight tonight...Well, things aren't looking so good.
Still, that's a worry for when I get back down the hill...For now I'm revelling in the freedom, freshness and solitude I find in the great outdoors...I don't know what the future holds, but right now I'm here, one hundred percent present.
Excuse me, I need to get back to it...
Design and create your ideal life, don't live it by default - Tomorrow isn't promised.
Be well
