We've put together a little timetable for weekdays in the house, just trying to give these odd days a bit of structure.
Naturally, woke up late and didn't stick to it. Still, we had meals together, which is something.
Taught four lessons today - which is my target for the rest of this lockdown. I can live comfortably on four hours' work a day, without touching the money I've put aside. Saying that, I've got absolutely fuck all work for the rest of the week.
It's writing time, let's just pretend it's intentional writing time.
Anyway, today was busy with three writing courses in a row...all of them were exhausting, but amazing. Every student was totally on it, so creative, so inspiring - I just had a brilliant, exciting time for three hours solid.
Then taught a drum lesson online for one of my regulars where the internet connection was a bit slow and we got a little frustrated. He was fine with it, though.
One of the parents of my students, aware that I'm losing a lot of trade, has kindly booked and paid me for 20 lessons in advance, to keep me going. From that money, I've ordered an electric kit, which means I can teach properly from home. A wise investment? Well, all of this on the basis that my students want to be taught from home, but maybe they're not up for it? Uncertain times ahead. Still, got a new toy at least.
