Past when we counted the weeks in lockdown…

We’re running low on a lot of things now; Patience, headspace, jobs we’ve been meaning to do and the feel good factor of finally getting it done. Lots of novelties eroded too. The novelty of walking, online workouts, Joe Wicks, writing on a blackboard, all the online educational “games”, FaceTime, Zoom, House Party, quiet roads, […]

Week 4 Lockdown…

Week: 4 Offspring I started the week off with: 3 Offspring I finish the week off with: 3 and you can’t prove otherwise Offspring conflicts refereed: Millions. I don’t even care who’s fault anything is anymore, they all behave like drunken cage fighters Alcohol units consumed: I don’t want to talk about it, I will […]

Week 1 Lockdown…

This is the week I spent in two states of being. Sobbing, with no hope of zooming in on any clear specific reason why. Just wave after wave of the enormity and entirety of it. Or in a bizarre state of surrealness experiencing it, repeating over and over to people I saw on the school run, on […]

Last Day of School…

I cried so hard this day. All day. I am still struggling to process and articulate what exactly was hurting my heart so badly. But this day hurt so brutally. A train ran over my life this day and a thousand and one complacencies and blessings were realised. My children were denied their education and […]

Week 7 for the 365 project! 📷🧡📆
Day 51 for the 365 project... can’t believe I’ve made it this far! It’s been such a therapy during this uncertain time. Just keeping my hand on my camera. Escaping in to creating a little everyday has kept me just enough away from reality to keep me sane. Oh what a gift it is to have a creative outlet at this time! 🙏🏼❤️📷
The snow’s gone, the Spring countdown is on and I think we all have something to look forward to now! The only way is up folks! 🥰
Sunset over snowy fields series is up on the blog! Please go check it out... LINK IN BIO! 🌨❄️📷💙
