The Corona virus has put life in Nashville on hold as of late, especially after the tornadoes that swept through the city just a few weeks ago. It’s been a hard couple of weeks. Still, Music City has shown up in spades, neighbors have helped neighbors, friends have helped friends. The city knows how to respond to heartache with a smile and a bit of Southern charm. If you’re quarantined in Nashville, then this laughable schedule might make you smile. Here’s to you, Music City. You’ve got this.

8 a.m. Wake up, and maybe put on that “Nashville Strong” t-shirt you bought a few weeks ago.

9 a.m. Biscuits for breakfast!

Christina B Castro - Flickr Now that there’s a glut of time in the morning, you can finally attempt to copy the famed Loveless Cafe biscuit recipe. Good luck, though. It’s been a secret for years and years.

10 a.m. Check the news…

Bev Sykes - Flickr …then turn it off. Quickly. Return to your normal routine. Eat those biscuits!

11 a.m. Tidy up the house

Nadja Varga - Flickr Perhaps clean to the sound of one of the EP’s one of the musicians down on Broadway gave you weeks ago. It’s time to dust those off, folks. You have time to listen to them now!

12 p.m. Lunchtime means fried chicken.

Tim Evanson - Flickr Let’s get back to our southern roots with a classic dish that hails from the American south. Add a bit of cayenne for that heated Nashville twist!

1 p.m. We’d normally say run your afternoon errands around this time?

Chris Waits - Flickr But there’s nothing on the grocery store shelves. So no need.

2 p.m. Get outside.

Tim - Flickr Stay six feet away from folks at all times, but now is the time to get those wriggly kids outside and gift them an afternoon that’s full of vitamin D.

3 p.m. to 5 p.m. Take some “me” time.

Anne Worner - Flickr Read a book. Play your favorite instrument. Take a nap. Wash your hands. You know the drill.

5 p.m. Early dinner?

Green Kozi - Flickr It’s a free-for-all, folks. It’s time to eat through all the food you’ve squirreled a way in your freezer.

7 p.m. Dessert and a movie.

Vee Satayamas - Flickr Ice cream and that age-old classic you’ve been putting off for years? Maybe the cookies you stress-baked earlier and a cartoon for the kids?

8 p.m. Late night walks…

Thomas Hawk - Flickr
…there’s nowhere more beautiful to walk and “socially distance” than Nashville. Stay in your neighborhood, say hi to the neighbor…but then again, you’d do that normally, wouldn’t you?

10 p.m. Sweet dreams!

Tim Lumley - Flickr Snooze and think about the days that you can walk the streets of Broadway again, and sink along to the Honkytonk bands. It’ll come faster than you think.

Looking for a bit more distraction? Make some summertime plans by way of our Nashville site archives! Here’s to a happy and healthy future, Nashville.
