All this being locked in doors has really taken its toll in a week to forget which has me worrying about what lies ahead. In a big house this situation would feel claustrophobic but in a flat with five people its a nightmare. It makes me wonder what we do if someone catches Covid. How do we stay seperate from them in this confined space? Its not as if we can move them out to one of the rooms in the west wing or start taking our teas on the lawn. We are penned in. The dog has helped no end. I hate to think how things would be with no excuse to go out. The kids are now wanting to go out when they didn't before. It gets to you.
But it all came to a head one night this week in a total horror show indoors I won't go into involving the oldest child who seems to think she is exempt from lockdown. Just awful to be honest and something we could really do without. Its done now though, hopefully. There is nothing worse than being stuck in a situation you want to flee but being made to stay. Instead of leaving as my anxiety wanted I had to sit it out until it was resolved.
Aside from that there is not a lot to say in this lockdown. We stay in, try to pass the time and walk the dog now again. Like has revolved around the dog right now as he is an outdoor pass. Meanwhile the world outside is starting to change. The photo above is from the local play park which is closed with swings and the likes taped off like a murder scene. Its hard to comprehend sometimes that this is life at the moment.
