Every day seems the same right now. It’s hard to keep track of them, a bit like when it’s Christmas and you can’t remember if it’s Tuesday or Sunday. Routines have gone out the window, yet I find I am rather enjoying slow time. Having had such good weather has helped. I have been gardening again – weeding, sowing more seeds. Reading has also been high on the agenda too and I washed the patio furniture (attempting fate) so I have more sitting options!
I go out about every three days to shop but avoid the big supermarkets as I hate queuing. I’ve noticed that I have more washing up to do but less clothes washing (there are four adults in my house), I am up to date with most of the housework and I think we are actually eating better. I’ve certainly cooked more scratch meals. The meat eaters of the family (two of them) have eaten more veggie and vegan (they usually cook their own meat), and we have settled into this weird way of life. I take each day as it comes and try not to dwell on how long this might last.
There is less traffic and pollution (much better for the planet) and I am more aware of birds singing and bees buzzing. I love watching wildlife from my window, though in this urban area wildlife is usually birds and a visiting cat. Nevertheless, I find it all calming and it’s an opportunity to take photos, which is good news for the blog! So, here is a selection of photos that make up this last week.
