Here stateside there’s a well known fabric store (Joanne’s) & if you sew🧵at all they’re giving away the materials to make approved face masks, for free, curbside. Just stitch them up & drop’em back off; I’m going to do this today. I’m on tour but will find the nearest store, grab some & work on them in between the few calls I’m having. Keep my hands busy & feel like I’m helping out in some way, at least.

Sorry, should’ve added that this of course is due to the shortages bc of Covid 19.

I'm bumping this since a lot of us will be sitting around indoors doing not much, even though it's maybe not quite the same as waiting for bookings. Inbetween trying t'ai chi for a change from yoga and batch cooking I am:

Knitting cleaning cloths (which I did anyway, but I'm doing more of them now because I'm cleaning everything more and changing them more often); you can buy pure cotton yarn online easily and there are loads of different dishcloth patterns. I mark them with different coloured scraps for different things* and you can wash them out between uses and sterilise them in the microwave.

I'm also rummaging through all the old bags and boxes of crap I have and I found loads of hotel mini soaps and stuff, so if I start running low I can eke things out for a while :)


*for example, anybody who has ever been a cleaner knows that red cloth is toilet cloth :D

I was organising my room and in one bag have loads of tea bags from all outcall visits now i made sure they are within date. I don't need to worry about heading to shop to get tea bags only to get there and there is none cos of panic buyers. I also I have plenty supply also hotel soaps too.

Whipped out the xbox and been playing games. Anyone who is into such that is an option too.

I’ve also quietly been taking ONE roll of toilet🚽paper🧻from each hotel I’ve been staying at, because I don’t know what to expect when I get home🏠. All the stores were completely out when I left, & I thought well, this is an excellent way to stock up.
I’m not being greedy, just the 1 roll & lord knows it’s the cheap stuff, but I figured I might be grateful for it down the road.

Yes I do the same way before this pandemic, when on a visit to upmarket hotel for outcall they always have more than two loo roll so I take one home with me for backup incase I run out. I now have a reasonable amount of fancy loo roll from fancyr hotels.  ;D

I stopped taking things from hotel hospitality trays a while back, out of realisation of the effect on the environment - plastic waste etc. Instead took my own little bottles and only used what I needed out of the supplied toiletries.

I do have a collection from prior to this, and plain soap is not in short supply.

I don't remember ever seeing hotel toilet rolls or soap wrapped in plastic. The soaps I have are in little cardboard boxes.

Back on topic,
Here stateside there’s a well known fabric store (Joanne’s) & if you sew🧵at all they’re giving away the materials to make approved face masks

If anybody else is short of things to do, I found a pattern for face masks here a few days ago: which I'm going to have a go with: craftpassion.com/face-mask-sewing-pattern/. I'm not daft enough to think they're any help at keeping out germs but in my experience of wearing them in civvy situations they really help to stop.you from touching your face :).

Prossie link: you can use dried out wet wipes as the core, and I'm pretty sure I can rustle up some of those :D

My house is cleaner than it has ever been in my life, and I've actually started to enjoy gardening (God help me! :FF ) I've always been working through all the books that were on my 'to-read' file, and started painting. I imagine it's a good time to pursue something creative....

Good morning all. So now we have loads more time for ourselves  has anyone started to do more for themselve.  Now o have more time I am picking up on my old beauty regime.

This morning I'm doing my green tea homemade facial and then my red light mask. I am a bot of a need for reading up on anti aging, Natural beauty and supplements. And now I have time to pamper myself. Honestly I was getting burned out from entertain with escorting, Put on a few pounds and started to look tired.

Think it would be uplifting to share the positives of having time home and for ourselves.

I don't know about anyone else but since I started escorting I stopped dating and only had paid sex for the whole time which was a year. So I've set up a date with a ex lover and plan on using him for my sexual pleasure lol. So I'm excited to do normal stuff again. Not that I miss online dating just I was worried a guy would find out what I did.

And yes my house is also the cleanest its been in a long time.

I may end up getting too lazy to go back to escorting. I don't think people realise how much hard work and mental and physical juggling we do. I have to maintain two properties and be home every night because of my kids plus find time to see friends.

I moved into a house that needed renovating a few weeks ago.
Now the workmen can't come round I'm living in a dusty building site with literally no kitchen! I have a pipe out of the wall for water and a bucket underneath it!
So I've been ordering garden tools and an incinerator for all the trees and bushes I'm going to cut down. Never thought I'd finish the garden before the house!!
Great exercise and fresh air though so something positive.

I can have some time to have a normal 'working day' for my graduate thesis, which is normally disrupted by taking calls and piddling about with checking replies to bookings and so on, very distracting. I also am umming and arrhing about whether to spend my evenings re-indulging in PC strategy games, learning French or catching up on my BFI subscription.  Making face-masks sounds like a fun idea too. I am also decided to treat it as a belated dry January and maybe do a bit of Yoga, treat the whole self isolation/none escorting as a bit of 'retreat'.

God I love a jam tart :)

I couldn't get eggs at all last week, so I made scones. This week I managed to get a dozen, and so far I've made pancakes (one egg made two days worth) and after my friend mentioned it yesterday I'm going to have a go at some pasta and noodles.

I'm in danger of turning into a cave monster having not shaved my legs in three weeks and giving my hair a complete rest from blowdrying. It's fab :D

Im just wondering what to do now as I am unable to see clients at all and phone chat has gone dead.
What are you all planning to do instead
Apparently we are only allowed out to exercise for hour and take few trips that are necessary.
I was going to upload more private gallery shots and main free gallery as I'd ordered some lovely new lingerie which hasn't arrived at bravissimo :FF
I will try meditation and listen music to switch off bored as hell.
Worried like crazy as I'm sure many ladies are too.
I can see me cancelling my June tour also for Yorkshire .
I hope you will all be well keep safe x
