Feest Isolation Days –12 March 2021
Today for the first time in many a year I ran a workshop! It was on Zoom and definitely not something I’ve ever done before. The Joy Club invited me to run this workshop and if you are over 65 (!) and live in the UK, you are welcome to tune in next week through Joy Club Presents. It was great fun and involved writing, and sharing that writing, as well as thinking about a few things when writing for and about yourself. Talking and sharing is always good to do at any time that is for certain!
The winds are still roaring away, and today we have had rain, hail, wind and sun. A totally mixed bag for the day. Apparently this weather is set in for a few days now so we too are set in! No long country walks or meeting friends. But look out next week. So far there are three planned walks with friends. The indoor bike and the exercise mats will have to suffice for the next while.
We are beginning to make longer term plans. It is a strange feeling. We expect to have overnight visits with the family in May, and prior to that, weather dependent of course, in April when it is allowed, we hope to have garden visits once more. What a treat that will be! We are already thinking about an in-house family visit. Probably eight to nine weeks away, but we are inching towards each other. I stared longingly at the many dining room chairs that are lined up against the wall waiting to be used once more.
Everyone has now had a Lockdown Birthday as it’s been a year, and we will have to celebrate those past birthdays and anniversaries when we meet. After all this time, another nineish weeks doesn’t seem too long a wait I suppose.
As Lockdown has been going on for nearly a year and this blog started a year ago Sunday, unusually there will be a Sunday blog. Heavens knows what I will share, but then I never know until I sit down and put keys to keyboard what topics might be covered on any given day. There are probably some thoughts swirling around but they aren’t nailed until I press send and off it goes. Strange how that works. We have all developed new ways of doing things over the year I suppose.
I leave you with one of my favourites…Randy Rainbow! BIDEN NOT that other guy…..
See you on Sunday! In the meantime, enjoy! Stay safe. The pandemic isn’t over yet but we are getting there!
With love,
