Day 2/21 Corona Quarantine

Day 2 was surprisingly busy. Day began as usual. Had my studio concall at 10 till 11am. Thereupon, sat down to get the biggest monkey off my chest- thats my reimbursements - was pending since Mar 3rd. SO was done and dusted with it by 3.30pm. Tried to nap a bit by 4ish but in vain- due to couple of spam calls. Lost it on Mom for a silly reason. Regret it. Evening came by- got on to removing and organising my personal pics from the Studio Laptop. By 8ish- had a long concall with relatives in US- "princeton". Helping them out to refurbishment their 1500 sqft basement into a hometheatre and Bar and associated Jazz. Got a bit moody towards the night and hit the bed quite early by 10ish

Breakfast: Omlette and Pav. Lunch: Chapati and Gobi ki sabji Dinner: Rasam rice

On the essentials front- well we have stocked up necessities till the next monday/ tuesday. Managed to get 4l of milk at 6am, from the apartment premise itself. Big Basket restarted the daily delivery of milk- need to check today if its continuous. Couple of folks in the apartment stepping out - had called for any necessities with rest of the guys. we refrained. nes that Amazon and Big basket have started deliveries, but couldnt see them online as yet. Evening got a loaf of Bread from our regular Javed Bhai. He mentioned all the local bakery folks have migrated back- but the company supplies are getting stabilised. he has promised he will get more loaves today. Lets see. Yes, it was also declared all the grocery stores can be opened 24*7 in mumbai. again wait n watch. So overall, one level of panic has settled down. Markets have also been ralling since last 3 days- after the mighty fall. So optimistic, that today's RBI governor's speech gonna make it more buoyant and help me recover my lost money. all fingers crossed
