Brisbane hotel quarantine (live)

The lady who’s doing this with me is taking time out of her day for this and I don’t want to let her down. Plus I said I’d do it at the start and don’t want to give in.
The true value of a training buddy! I have a PT session each week (when not in lockdown 😆) because I just cannot bear having to call my trainer and cancel it.
 
Day 11 Hotel Quarantine. Another nice day with yummy food. Slowly catching up with some shows on my streaming watchlists 😏😁 Unfortunately the mystery of my missing leggings failed to be solved. But all is not lost. They asked how much they cost - $6 from Kmart 🤪 and are giving me $15 in compensation. Bargain! Now I can buy 2 new pairs 😁

Breakfast had something completely different - Nutri-Grain which I haven’t had in years 😋 Lunch was delicious and healthy as usual. For tea the chickpea soup was amazing 🤤 I’ve never had Tagine of Lamb before but it was really good 😋 Thank you everyone for your continued interest and positive posts 🥰😘

A pity those soft drinks and fruit drinks are full of sugar. Otherwise those menus look consistently great.

Yes I don’t normally drink them. I have used a few of the poppers here to add to my wine for a kind of faux mimosa. I haven’t drunk any of the cans. I’ll take all my unopened drinks and snacks home for my friend and her kids. They collect the empties as well for the recycling money. 😎
 
Thank you! Yes I have my release time of 10am on Monday. Reception called me yesterday to ask what time I wanted to leave. Then I just wait in my room for a police person to knock on my door and escort me out of the building. Never thought I’d ever say that about myself 😳😏😂👮‍♀️
If you don't have instant human interaction lined up I work across the road from your hotel and can have a coffee with you to celebrate your release from custody;)

Oh how funny! I often gaze out the window still wearing my jimjams with my unkempt crazy cat lady hair so hope you haven’t seen the weird chick watching all the free people 😂 I suppose it depends which side you work on. I have city view so look over Queen Street. A coffee sounds nice. I’ll let you know. Mine’s a small skinny flat white with caramel syrup; no sugar BTW 😜🤣☕

First floor, right 🤣 ???

You mean I have a kindred spirit on the first floor 😏😻😂 No I originally thought by my room number that I was on Floor 1 despite being up reasonably high. But I’m floor 11. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’m going to draw the curtains now as I’ve revealed too much 😳 😂 I don’t want to have to make any effort until I have to be seen by humans again. In public anyway 😏

I guess from your reaction you took my post in good humour - but just to be doubly sure, leave your curtain opens - sunlight in, looking outside and keeping up the rest of your quarantine behaviours/activities does help maintain a good level of mental wellness.
 
Day 12 Hotel Quarantine 😳 It’s coming to an end. Only 3 more sleeps. Yummy food as always. It will be bittersweet to leave really 😳😏 But good to get back to my own surroundings, my cats and lovely friends. 🥰😘😍😻 Good to hear QLD has relaxed some rules since 4pm. Sorry to those in other states still suffering 😢 The lentil soup and salmon were really tasty. Got a Caramello Koala 🐨 tonight too - that’s different 🤤 Both the dessert and chocolate are in the fridge because I’m too full atm. Actually most of my nightly chocolates are there because I’m never hungry enough to eat them (yet). I love chocolate so they will not go astray 😏😋

oz_ally - would you like to stay in for another 14 days ?? we have all enjoyed following your stay and would like it to continue .......


only joking !! 😆 😆 :rolleyes::rolleyes: :p:p :oops::oops:
Hmmmm maybe but I don’t think there would be anything new to post about unless some of the guests start playing up or I order in a pair of binoculars and witness something juicy in another building Rear Window style 😏👀
I think oz_ally would be tempted.
Just send in the cats! :)
Oh yes of course! 😻😻 And if I didn’t have to pay 💰😏🤣🤣🤣
 
@oz_ally kindly joined me on today's episode of the AFF podcast to talk about her hotel quarantine experience.


oz_ally, I've been impressed by your positivity throughout this ordeal. Not long to go now until freedom day!
