Write It Down: Day One of LockDown by Any Other Name

Now is a good time to keep a blog/journal/diary of current events from your perspective. Keeping on in your own handwriting is a bonus--I'll award extra credit points for hand written entries. And the end of this project you may cash in those extra credit points towards a toaster oven.
Editor's note: there is no toaster oven, but please feel free to play along.

In case you are wondering WHAT in the heck you're going write about, I've compiled this handy-dandy list of writing prompts:

My must haves--plus tea.

1) Describe your living situation: who/what/where/how. Be sure to include a tally of available rolls of "bathroom tissue."

2) Biggest fear. Might as well haul it out into the daylight and take a look at it.

3) Thing you miss the most.

4) Dumb thing you miss.

5) Something you don't miss AT ALL/A.K.A. a good thing that has come from this.

6) What is your daily routine like? "My New Normal."
6b) Revisit this topic every 10 days and track the changes.

7) Are your meals/meal times different? Describe a meal you just had.

8) Imagine a Post-Virus Cookbook--what would the recipes have as a main ingredient?

9) Crafts using T.P.: will we wallpaper with it?

10) Celebrity you would most like/dislike to quarantine with.

11) Write a Covid-19 Haiku. (5/7/5 if you've forgotten)

12) "When I realized this crap was real"--day/event.

13) Turns out, this was all a dream-- like that season of Dallas with Bobby in the shower. Here is how my friends reacted when I told them my *dream.*

14) Is the POTUS a Zombie Creator? Discuss. Outlandish claims welcome.

15) Make a list of all the positive outcomes: i.e. birdsong, cleaner air, etc. or relate a positive story you know about.

16) What is your go-to stress reliever? Before/Now. Same/Different? Personally--i'm all about the bubblebath.

17) Write a Covid-19 Cinquain. Google cinquain. I'M NOT DOING YOUR HOMEWORK, BOB!

18) Write a short story about a person waking up with amnesia and trying to go about their daily "before" life. What do they tell them selves to explain all the differences?

19) Write about Food Banks in a time of Covid.

20) What color would you repaint your shelter-in-place surroundings if you could?

21) Re-name the color rainbow--think fingernail polish names or paint colors. What would you call beige?  What would you call__________?

22) Weirdest thing you bought on-line.

23) Weirdest food you purchased in a grocery store.

24) What/When was your last day of "normal" life like?

25) Dream location to shelter-in-place?
