0:57 Okay, so in this episode of the special In a chat, kind of special episodes that we're doing here, we've got Audra, who is based in Canada, and we're gonna have a chat about the kind of, you know, weird things that are going on right now and hopefully provide some humour and a little bit of inspiration to make this a bit lighter. So how are you finding things right now?1:21 You know what, it's actually okay. I have not been out of my apartment in a month. So, um, but I think we're just I feel safe. We're doing what we have to do. We're saving lives. It's temporary. I mean, I think the world is not gonna be the same at the end of this, but it's managing. Well, I mean, listen, we have a roof over our heads. We have internet access, we have enough groceries. Everyone that I love and care about so far is safe and safe. I'm focused on that and just like doing what we need to do right now.2:05 Yeah, million percent Williamson. I mean, I read your blog the other day on how you're kind of finding things, and working from home with your partner.2:15 Just tell us a little bit about that. Yeah, I mean, I2:19 I already work from home and now I'm just reminding myself that this is our apartment and not like I do. I'm used to a lot of alone time but I mean, we live in a big city. So real estate is tricky, right? Like we have an open concept loft. So everything happens, basically in one room, right? Like it's like the cooking, the eating, the relaxing the working. And actually, I feel like both of us are working more than we normally would like, it's hard to just turn it off. I think we need to like figure out a way to be like, okay, it's five o'clock. Turn off your computer and figuring it out. How do we differentiate the days like my most recent suggestion was like, Martini Monday to Tuesday. Hey,3:16 you know what day it is? What are we drinking?3:21 is awesome. I love that. I love that and the thing that's really annoying is that whenever you like I send my husband to the supermarket now so I don't have to go. I just kind of see him. And he always says like, yeah, the hell gone. I was just empty so we couldn't really get anything. Oh.3:39 Um, so yeah, is it like that where you are like, um,3:42 yeah, so my husband actually went to do groceries this morning and waited for an hour in line in the parking lot to get in before but I we we kind of we stopped pelts and booze early on. So we're set.3:59 That is a good tip. Do we do the opposite sort of thing? We stop? We literally stockpiled easter eggs.4:06 We have a fridge. That's good.4:09 Nothing else4:11 about that. It's so funny.4:15 Oh god. So how does how's your partner finding working from home? Is that like, is that like for the first time for him? Do you think?4:25 I mean, he has taken the odd day from home. But it like for him consistently. It's tough. And he is used to being way more active. So he, he like he walks to work and I think that part he's missing but I think he's also he also kind of has this like can do spirit of we're just doing what we need to do. We'll get through it, you know. So I think the thing that's going to be tough for us, like bigger pictures and we travel a lot like every couple of months. somewhere. I really don't think we're going to be travelling probably for a year so that's going to be tough but we are getting a puppy. Oh wow. That feels like a pretty good consolation prize. So for sure and that will definitely keep you busy. Yeah.5:21 Can we get into a little bit more detail about the puppy?5:24 Puppy for cute so we actually we had a dog that we lost in December she's she's the best dog ever. Um, so we are dog people and we are like really feeling that loss especially right now. You know, it would just be so great to have a dog in your lap. So she's coming end of June.5:50 Can't5:53 it's like anybody out there follows me on instagram you will know I post a picture of my dog. The deck is6:00 She's just always doing something funny and cute. Yeah, t
