STAYING AT HOME! and TOILET PAPER SHORTAGE!
I had a new Normal – did you?
Community came to mean – front line heroes, NHS, social bubbles, press pause on your life, shielding, face masks, hand sanitisers, lockdown, quarantine, home schooling, social distancing, help save lives, 2 meters apart, track and trace and many new words to add to my personal dictionary.
I was dragged into the 21 Century “screaming and shouting) ZOOM, SKYPE, GO TO, and TEAMS became my working platforms if I wanted to keep in touch with my voluntary service as well as friends and family. I was told that “Read, Walk, Exercise, Breathe, Meditate, Dance, and working in the Garden” would support my mental and physical wellbeing.
Finally a long awaited JAB. The vaccination had arrived for me too!!
What next we ask? Let’s say goodbye to Winter and look forward to the Spring. Nature is giving us the snowdrops, daffodils and crocuses and the belief of a better future.
