Still at home update

I'm still at home much like you probably are unless you are an essential worker. It's pretty boring most of the time. Can we talk about the dishes? Holy crap! I must have forgotten about the dishes I did when my kids were little and at home.

The good news is that I have been painting and actually sold three paintings in the past two weeks. They are all 50% off too. If you want one you can go to shop.kerrysteele.com and get one on sale with the code SALE 50.

SOLD

I cannot believe how my artwork sells when the economy is bad. You'd think it would be the opposite.
So tell me your good noise during this pandemic.

What the hell happened?


The answer is Covid-19. Well and all of our answers to it. In South Carolina ( as of March 24) we are just told to practice social distancing and stay home if possible But in other places the citizens are told to shelter in place.
My work, a high-end furniture store, is still open and people are still coming in! I told my boss that I could no longer come in due to an autoimmune disorder that I have, but I sent in the sales people. I'm not sure if that is a good idea or not. I want the hourly workers to get paid and stick around but not too sure about the risk to them and their families.



At first I did not understand how people could not know what day it was or experience anxiety by being at home. Now I'm starting to get it. No one knows the future and that's scary.
Am I painting? No, not really. I don't know why. I did start to clean up my house. And eat too much.


Not apples though.
My husband has been working from home for over a week and my daughter has been homeschooled by her teachers for about 15 minutes a day for over a week. I'm not sure how she gets the work done so quickly and why there is so little of it.
Life is crazy and boring and unsure.
So tell me... what are you doing during this pandemic? Anything fun? Tell me where you live and what the "rules" are right now.
