Under House Arrest Day 24...

So... We have another three weeks of this at least, I'm sad of course because I miss people, I miss going out ( not that we went out that much, but we had the freedom to go into town to meet up with Sue and Pete or wander about on our own) I know it's for the greater good. I know it's not that hard for me, we still see Charlotte at a distance, we can video call Sue and Pete. I'm not bemoaning it I get it. We have the lovely Willow who is such good company. She sits and chats to me bless her, chirruping away climbing on my knee for snuggles at night when she knows I'm settled for the night.  But I'm human I get anxious, I have my lows. I don't shout them from the rooftops, I'm not looking for attention or sympathy. Im just voicing them to get them out of my system. Never have been more aware of how much I am grateful for, the roof over my head, the food in my cupboards, the friends I have. Kev, my Sister her husband and other loved ones.

So I try and focus on the good. I concentrate on the stuff I create, the laughs we have, the games we play together on the Xbox, the movies we watch, the series we devour on tv. I'm making the most of this time, it might be all I have. After all, as a kid I wasn't expected to be alive after a certain point, so 56 is quite an achievement really. So on that note, here's a roundup of what we've done today. We haven't gone out, no need. Charlotte got what bits we needed, and popped them round. I watched another tutorial by Dyan and a live with Tim. ( see they are so much part of my day I feel comfortable using their first names as I know them... Lol) 

So I did a cutout page like the one Dyan did yesterday, I'll put the picture up at the end. Im pleased how it came out.  

The dolls I ordered came. They are lovely, and they talk which is really cool. I had to do a bit of rearranging on the shelves but they've moved in with Sadie and Syn. Let's hope they'll be no fighting! 

Tonight is clap for the NHS. Last week we were the only ones on Thurlbeck out there, but given that the majority of the bungalows are occupied with housebound residents it's understandable. Last week was lovely however, because one of the district nurses was just leaving one of the bungalows as we clapped and said thank you to us... So I'll wind up now, more musings tomorrow and please remember that I post these the day after, so I'm always a day behind. Except at weekends when I usually do a two in one. Stay in. Stay Safe and stay sane...
