What's the very first thing you're going to do as soon as lockdown is lifted?

What about you?
 
Go to a buffet with my Lil Sis!

Then go with her to set one of the coloured stones that I'm going to give to her!!!!!

I've said she can have any of these

I adore her but absence really does make the heart grow fonder hence a present from me!

Get back to dancing with my dance community. That’s the one thing I miss the most. The other things that I used to do...well I think I’ve been dopamine deprived enough that I’m not sure I want to go back to the way things were. Less shopping, fewer extras, etc etc. this has been a challenging time, but I see great value in the way it has made me appreciate things like nature and people more, and forced me to go inside more, taking stock of the overall way of living, and focusing life energy more. That said, it will be nice to get a manicure and pedicure again!

Awww!! love this!

and those stones are gorgeous! What stones are they? sapphires, spinels?
 
Go to my mothers house & hug her until she might pop, as opposed to dropping shopping & meals on her doorstep, ringing the bell & yelling conversation across the lawn.

I know what you mean. As much as I've disliked being in lockdown, it's given me a new sense of perspective and appreciation. And I hear you on the mani pedi! lol.

Awww! this made me tear up a bit. I feel like this about my dad.
 
Go to the local pub that I frequent and raise a glass or two with my drinking buddies.

From left to right spinel, sapphire, sapphire, spinel

I think she's going to go for the yellow sapphire (that's a bad pic of it but it's a bright daisy yellow) because she wants a daisy ring.

Plus I buy her a daisy dress every year (dress with daisy print on it) so this seems fitting.
 
I will go straight to the King of Prussia mall.

Since my family is 1000 km away, I'm sure the first trip will be to the stables to hug the ponies. Then we'll plan our family gtg we had to cancel

Is it you, or am I mis-remembering, that are having a virtual pub chat room?

Love that you have such a special bond with your sis.

Those stones are so pretty. I heart the the daisy theme.

Yup, Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) has started a virtual pub, used it once for our local branch meeting last Tuesday and it was good fun.

I believe it uses the Zoom platform or something similar.

Non members can access the general public bar, however I have not used it yet, as I don't really like the politics and only mix with members in my branch.

See my parents.
See my nieces and sister.
Get ice cream at Dave's place and Jimmy's place in the same day.
Yup I can handle it.

and go cycling down the shore and visit all our friends there and give them and their furry babies a big hug.

Go eat out at our favourite bar and grill lol. Then grocery shop and enjoy myself. Then schedule my dad's flight with him since his original one for this month obviously is cancelled so he can come see his granddaughter for a late birthday celebration.
 
Not gonna lie, I don’t trust any of our administrations - federal or state - not to decide to free everyone before its wise to do so. I think we’ll be resurgent like Hong Kong.

So I’ll be visiting my parents and visiting DH’s parents, and a few close friends, but I’ll continue avoiding large gatherings of people for a long time. I have too many immunocompromised family and friends to take unnecessary risks.
 
Go for a hike in a state park and enjoy being outside for more than half an hour.
 
Probably nothing. I’m one of the ones who discovered my real life is apparently called “isolation” lol.

Well, maybe I would go swimming if the gym was open.
 
I had a huge surge of work to deal with & it is quite enough - I wish everyone else gets distracted, so I get to lock down too for a couple of days.

@yssie I will be watching whom & how I meet for much longer, sure enough.
 
1. Hair salon
2. Chiropractor
3. Massage Therapist
