Back Under House Arrest day 194

Today we had our 4th Covid test, still just as unpleasant, but we had recieved notification that all our others so far had been negative. We know they contact you straight away if you are positive, but it was nice to see in black and white that we were ok. 

I've been doing a spot of online shopping ready for Christmas, getting things that I think people will like and easy to post if we don't get chance to see them. 

I'm turning away from the news at the moment, it might be burying my head, but I can't deal with it. I'm as bad now as I was in March. When I get this despondent it isn't good to let too much in that can pull me even further down. 

So I spent the day doing Christmas cards, and funny ones at that.

We did have a bit of a drama when we were tested. Willow decided to run out the open door, luckily the wind blew on her and she ran back in. I think the little bugger was just coming to see where I was. We have to have the door open because the ones collecting our swab samples don't come into your home. Next time I'll shut the living room door just in case she gets curious again. It's the first time she has ever done that, I know Rouble was an escape artist but he never got far. It's like they forget themselves then come belting back in like the devils after them. Trouble is we know that there are cat haters among these bungalows, and have been known to lob bricks at cats wandering around. Willow has had enough physical damage in her short life, I don't want her to suffer again. I can understand people not liking cats, but that doesn't mean they should hurt them. I always think that how you treat animals is more important than how you treat humans.
