Kuwait curfew day 3

Not much goes on during the day for me. I did have to make a trip to the supermarket for a few things I forgot on Sunday. After what I saw today there's  no way I will go out again unless I need emergency items and it will be early morning after seeing the lines.



The first video is of the government supermarket where they are taking temperatures of people and making the bachelor men sit and wait for their turn to go inside. I decided to go out to another private chain supermarket as it is a much bigger place to shop. Once again the bachelors are made to wait while families, women and old people are allowed to go inside grab a cart and wait until called.

My advice is start the day off early around 8 am to get things done, any time after 12 is just crazy.

Day 1 of Kuwait Curfew




Day 1: I went to the grocery store for shopping as I didn't do any major shopping since this all began, N95 mask, gloves and hoodie to the store. At the supermarket I went to they were spraying the shopping carts but not practicing the spacing of people. As time went by the amount of people increase and it became a little overwhelming.

Once I got out I took off the mask to breathe, it was so hot and stuffy but with that many people so close to each other it was necessary. Once I reached home I took my clothes to the wash and had a shower before I did anything, that's a daily ritual for me. Everyone was waiting patiently for 4 pm to come as we were supposed to hear a siren or some type of warning message but no one I know heard anything besides some mumbling in a distant area. So we all waited for 5 pm to come as the big announcement made earlier was about sirens going off, that didn't happen either.

Now I just go back and forth from my computer to IG to watch videos of smart people getting arrested. My friend and my sister were watching people continue to walk and drive as if nothing was going on, they can't seem to follow the rules.





Those are a few videos of the day showing people don't take the curfew seriously and in time the military may get involved if people continue to be arrogant.

Lockdown Life in Kuwait


Yeah, not much to post about any more other than things related tot he virus. I am truly blessed to be in Kuwait with my family during this time. I watch on TV how people fight over toilet paper, I see pictures of empty aisles that friends send me from California and how they are running out of money because there is no work.

I worry about my children in California, my daughter told me they couldn't find milk or sanitizing essentials which is truly sad considering they live in America. This is a test for all countries, it shows the greed and anger people truly feel towards one another. I feel for the elderly who are alone and vulnerable, then I see the young generation partying like it's a regular day.

Humanity has lost their core values, respect the elders, be kind to one another, just simple things we used to live by but have been lost by the glitter of money and fame.

With this lockdown my routine is basically sitting at home refreshing IG, checking out Snap, laptop and the daily walk around the neighborhood. I am thankful to be living in Kuwait at this time, we have enough food, everyone who needs to be tested are receiving it. The markets have food, businesses provide gloves and hand washing areas and life is calm here.

Lock Down life is getting BORING!

I'm bored from the internet, nothing on Netflix worth watching, I try to take a walk around the neighborhood during the say to get some sun. This is really difficult....


Before and After quarantine
