how is everyone passing time in quarantine
have you learnt anything new or got new hobbies
i have been exercising inside my home going for light jogs outside instead of going to gym n watching tv movies n funny videos on youtube listening to music from my youth 60s 70s
the same sort of things but in different way such as catch up with friends on skype video caling more than before which is nicer than a phone call. i still need a new phone which works better for video calls i really dont like this phone
Are you using video call more now than before to chat to friends n family

@Pandy_ Yes, I enjoy them. They've become very popular since the lockdown began.

Well, my relatives busy caring for our elderly, so they've got their hands full so not much communication going in. I leave text msg. Got caught up with my rearranging & discarding decisions of furniture, started sewing, indoor walk in place exercises & stretching exercises... Lots of TV. Essential shopping and trying to avoid pastry section...

I like cotton nightgowns, but find none in store. I checked my materials, my Aunt & Mother saved up and found cotton one so got to sewing it. Almost finished.

Video call has been really helpful during this pandemic. I have been using it to talk with friends and relatives. It has also been great in attending group meetings and class discussions.

@a_jerobon i have never used this program before wow does it slow your connection down having that many screens up of others or is it one screen and everyone watching one instructor or facilitator etc
