How are you spending your time?

Already cleaned all the rifles, shotguns and pistols. Made some more arrows and doing some archery practice.
 
Both my wife and I are working still. We are spending our off time painting the inside of the house, working in the yard, I have been getting ready to do some smoking and I put together a quick and portable bench for my reloader. Being that I have just recently moved into my house and have been remodeling it, there is no shortage of things to do to keep me busy on my off days.
 
Today, got up an hour before sunrise, tried to find a deer, failed, did a bit of reloading, went for a walk with the wife in the countryside, now getting square eyes watching tv.
Tomorrow, not getting up early, bit more reloading, walk with wife, out deer hunting in the evening and try to shoot the fox I missed last week.
Rest of the week, see previous, but I might fit in some running or fly fishing/fly tying if I have time ;)

No social gathering at all, being responsible, keeping ourselves to ourselves.

@noharleyyet still not nearly as good as I was in college. But it's coming together easier each time I sit at the wheel. Gonna finish these this week, and throw the rest of this clay (about 18 pounds) as teapots before moving over to porcelain & attempting some finer forms. Still have 50 pounds of a really groggy clay that I'm going to use for some raku firings we're supposed to have when things let up & we can get back to the kilns.
 
Life as usual for me. Fencing, harrowing,ditch cleaning and other chores getting ready for cows and irrigation until my fishing charter season starts. We usually go to town every week or two for supplies and a dinner out but have stopped that. Other than those town trips I'm more than happy to stay on the ranch.

Keep it up to, it's looking good!
 
We got sent home Monday afternoon. The university is down to to critical employees now, so its just the reactor operators and those caring for live animals on campus. I'm trying to stay busy working from home. We'll be way behind on sample collection during insect emergence, but whatever new hires we get for the summer are going to have a heck of an on boarding packet ready for them.

When I started on boarding was a few modules on lab safety and a drive around the research property, so this has been a project I've been trying to find time to complete for quite a while.
 
Threw some tea bowls & mugs last night & trimmed up the jars. I'll trim the bowls this weekend &add handles to the mugs. Thinking the next project is going to be a mix of more jars & teapots. Picked up another 50 pounds of clay, so I have just over 200 laid in. Might do a few bowls as well.
