Chookie, from what I can gather, those feeling the most stressed are the ones with kids at home and doing home schooling, this lockdown seems to be affecting them badly.  Then there are the selfish ones who just don't seem to care one way or the other ... apparently there was someone pulled up by the police earlier this week for not wearing a face mask and, apparently, the excuse was that "Uranus was in the third house" or something like that, so that person was exempt from wearing a mask.  Condemnation for that person's attitude and I know it is bad of me to say this, but kudos for coming up with such an original and outrageous excuse.

Life over here is almost back to pre Covid. We must still be 1.5 metres apart and in cafe’s etc 2 metres apart. Sadly many people forget this and crowd you. Even in Payne’s Find, which is many km’s from everywhere, people were standing 1.5m apart in the road house/pub/ shop.

Hang in t here folks.

Yesterday was like early spring.  Today back to Winter.  We ate leftovers, did a crossword, read a whole thriller from Kobo on line.

Sounds good Chookie. Especially the reading bit.

We are in for a very cold week with a bit of rain.  May even have snow on Friday. All the Daff are nearly out and look lovely. Pink blossom also out.  Looking through my seed box and waiting for the ground to warm up so I can plant for Summer.

Hello everyone. Haven't been on for a few weeks. My mum took a tumble and fractured her ribs and pelvis. Then she went septic and things didn't look good. She's tough but 2 weeks of not walking hasn't done her any favours. Hopefully by the end of next week, she will be well enough to go to rehab.

Oh Mich that isn't nice. Rehab can do wonderful things.

So sorry to hear that Michele, falls when we’re older are so debilitating.  I do hope rehab goes well for Mum.  Please pass my best wishes onto her.

Michele, that is tough on everyone.  Your poor mum. Best wishes.
It has turned cold again.
Some of my messages look a bit strange.  The iPad is doing strange things.  I try to check but sometimes don’t.  Sorry.

Michele, I'm so sorry to hear of your mum's fall. I hope she recovers quickly.

Plum tree in blossom.  Hope the Bees are doing their thing.
