Portland is closed for 4 weeks, the rest of Oregon is 2 weeks, but I imagine it will go on a little bit longer. I got the news a little early and went to the grocery store before the noon press conference. For weeks now I&#8217;ve been slowly buying a little bit of extra stuff at the grocery store. Mostly things like lentils, beans, pasta, basically stuff that could live on the shelf for a bit. But this time I bought essentials like veggies, milk, eggs etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve basically been in &#8220;lockdown&#8221; in a way since March. I&#8217;ve worked from home this whole time, which I am happy I have a job that I can do that. I know it&#8217;s a privilege. I go into the office once a month or so to do some stuff, but basically home this whole time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So it won&#8217;t be a huge adjustment this time. Not like March. Saturday I went swimming, probably for the last time for the next month. Which I am bummed about. I understand and I think the lockdown is VERY necessary. But I just got back to the pool after 7 MONTHS. Oh well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4152-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-59126\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4152-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4152-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4152-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4152-690x920.jpg 690w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4152-980x1307.jpg 980w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/IMG_4152-rotated.jpg 1512w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This lockdown will be a little harder for sure. The weather had turned rainy and gross here so less outdoor time like in March. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the holidays&#8230;Thanksgiving is cancelled so we will be doing our own thing at home. Not sure what we will do yet. I am thinking maybe Michael&#8217;s mac n&#8217; cheese and a ham or smoked chicken. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Logan is SUPER excited about Christmas. We decided to put up a few decorations early. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"960\" src=\"http:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/125442804_10158633028532527_7848476651055599742_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-59127\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/125442804_10158633028532527_7848476651055599742_n.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/125442804_10158633028532527_7848476651055599742_n-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.110pounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/125442804_10158633028532527_7848476651055599742_n-690x920.jpg 690w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>So that&#8217;s about it for now.
