Your boss needs to give you 2 weeks off with pay . . . as a Covid safety precaution of course

No,, I'd rather be at work,, had 6 weeks off in March,,, and being stuck in the flat myself certainly screws with the mental health,,, I'm a loner but,, that was tough,, I done video chats with the family but it was an eye opener. I have plenty of hobby kit in the house that in theory should have kept me amused,, from cnc router, 3d printer, sublimation, sgian dubh builds to name a few but it was motivation that went,, sleep pattern went right out the window,, body clock got screwed up,, eating was also not right,,,, Could feel a bit of depression kicking in,, but recognised the signs before I went down that rabbit hole,, Bit more prepared for it this time,, Decided to give myself a project,, bit of painting in the hall,, Now to most they will say,, not a big deal,, but I was banned by my x wife from doing any of this,, was murder at it,, too impatient,, Painting the hall black with holographic sparkles,, 😁,,, Carol says I've finally flipped,, but it's to represent space,, I'm going to print images I've took and mount them on the wall,, I have bought a constellation light shade and will fit neon lighting as well.. I think it will look cool,,, its not a big hallway so I should get away with it 😁 This is the effect in grey My light shade Led lightning I got

Up and out shopping at 7am before I headed to work and got the Toshiba 58" TV,, would have regretted not getting it,, will be good watching movies on,, my biggest TV is 32",, I only watch dvds and blueray on it so wasn't fussed keeping up wae the kardassiens 😁,, but it will be linked to my telescope set up 😁👍🔭

Carol said it looks too morbid and next thing I'll have in living room is a coffin 😂 Still,, would make a nice coffee table 😁 Gave it a second coat today and the glitter is much better,, The construction lamp shade can only take a 25w bulb max and its two dull to get the glitter to sparkle,, need a new plan,, Think the paint would have looked better in vinyl silk emulsion,, but it's done now,, The led projector light definitely sets it off
