Hi I am 81 and have a decent diagnosis of PMR and I am currently on a very high dosage of Prednisone I have a very old degree in Pharmacy , and I am very grateful that my memory is still quite good I do know stress is a function that involves our adrenal glands. I know with the current dosage of Prednisone, I do not want to add any additional impact on my adrenal glands So I needed a plan to deal width the issues of social isolation.
Here is the start of my daily routine:
Tomorrow, I will visit Bali ,which was always on my List , but never got there . I can amuse myself for weeks learning new things and enjoying the trip
I will connect with my family in Denmark in a daily basis , even some I have never met , but know through my DNA testing on Ancestry
I want to hear any new suggestions any one has for not feeling isolated, but in fact knowing that we are doing the best thing possible for all of us to avoid exposure

No and yes Most countries have great websites that have travel destinations on their website For Examples, my heritage is Danish and although I have been there several times , the Denmark site has a lots of history etc
Because I am really interested in genealogy, and convinced that those Vikings helped shape my life ( except for their brutality) I am reading all I can about the Vikings And so impressed by their ability to navigate All the way to the east coast of Canada in long boat I saw in the museums Heh they are my relatives and I am just not that tough

Something I do, is when reading a book, I have my computer handy and use Google Earth to view locations that are mentioned in the story line. I saw some wonderful locations in Pakistan by that method today.

Just love your answer Tonight I have just revisited Bern Still trying to find a picture of the fire hydrants I remember being painted like Bears I do think that maybe they decided that that was not a great decision for safety, but it seems to be my favourite memory of a beautiful city

@johnbishop– Great videos and ideas! We might not want toe ver leave the house!
Thank you for this John. They are terrific.
@bridgegoddess– A am not Nordic but read everything about the Vikings that I can and watch movies and series!
Have you watched Neil Oliver’s 3 documentaries on the Vikings He is a Scottish archeologist who does outstanding work He separates them into The Swedish, Norwegian, and Danish and the different area they all travelled to The documentaries Seem harder to find now At one time they were all on Knowledge network but not now I started looking for them, but got distracted by a another documentary he had done
@colleenyoung
@bridgegoddess, what a great idea, travel the world on the Internet. How do you do it? Do you just Google a country and view images? Or do you use a special app or website?
