Exit strategies for after the Corona crisis

Now that we are all inside waiting for the go ahead to get back to work and do our normal activities, we need to prioritize our own "exit strategies.  What is the most important things to do, and in which order.  I personally am taking an inventory of my apartment and see what I have.  I see that I really don't need writing supplies, pens, paper, pencils,  Maybe summer clothes, as summer has come to Israel with a bang, today will be 30 degrees Celcius!  I need to see if I need any summer clothes, if any.  

What do I need for my various jobs? 

For the music teaching, I might need some clarinet and saxophone reeds, guitar, a new set of strings, For the hair cutting business, I don't need anything.  

For English teaching, I need to write some more blog posts lesson plans, for Hebrew teaching, I have all the books, It looks like I am all set, but what about you? 

Oh, I still need to find more of the regular dishes from after Passover.  I wasn't very organized this year when I put the chumutz dishes away . . .  

What do you need to do to get ready to start work again?
