9 Dress up day.

It was another beautiful morning, I have added to my morning rituals; wiping down the clothes rope; and I will only use my own clothes pegs,

I share with another three flats, so I have to think about that.

I did a telephone counselling session with a woman who is is struggling she is looking after family who are very ill, with covid19  another client works in NHS and is on the front line ,taking care of our most vulnerable people. I feel so privileged to be able to listen and support them.

I put on my working clothes , make up and a spray of Chanel, made me feel good. I will do more of that, it is so easy to stay in Jammie 's and dressing gowns.


I striped my beds and got all the laundry washed and dried very quickly in the March sunshine, which was very warm today. As it was so nice I decided to bring out all my summer clothes and launder them , and managed to get them all done too.

My neighbours got me some non essential shopping , nail varnish remover, Nivea, Marigold gloves, so kind of them all  : later in the day some other neighbours were out shopping and saw some pasta, they know I was hoping to get some, and bought me a packet, generous spirits abound.

Another friend brought me some music that I was looking for ; handed it in through my window, he was out for his cycle ride ,we had a nice distance chat,then off he went. I am so grateful that I am on the ground floor. I see all the neighbours coming and going , they wave and chat ,it's great.

Last night  as I joined it the "clap for our NHS" folk all over Britain, stood on balconies front steps opened windows and applauded the fantastic people who put their lives on the line for others, they truly are Hero 's It was very emotional and amazing to be part of the gratitude five minutes, people banged pots and let off fireworks.

I heard today that our Prime Minister has the corona virus, such a shame. I am not a fan of his, but I feel sad that anyone is ill.

I had a long chat with my Sister which was good fun.  Heard from M who is not having such a good time of it, also R, she is struggling.


I am amazed that I always have things to do, I don't miss work yet, but I suspect that I will in time.

I miss hugs and touch and the presence of my family, but glad to be able to use modern technology to keep in touch.

An eighteen year old girl Holly who has struggled all her life with illness, died in Liverpool, she was well known in Liverpool and loved. We all wore something Pink today, the day of her funeral, it was her mother's wish as sadly no one could go to her funeral.


Peace to the North
Peace to the South
Peace to the East
Peace to the West
Peace be without
Peace be within

Peace Peace Peace.
