Today is a beautiful day the sun is shining and I had a beautiful walk in the park, it is the anniversary of Andrew and Lucy meeting such a shame they cannot go out to celebrate together.I sent a card and an e card, I also sent cards to Wendy and Gary for their silver wedding on 8th, and get well cars to E and M .I can go to the post box which is amazing ,a nice thing to do.
I always took for granted going to the post office buying stamps, just every day things.I have discovered that I can buy stamps online.
I wanted to send a book to a client which I thought would be helpful for her. Luckily my neighbour said she would take the parcel to the post office for me. The post offices near us were closed, she had to drive around for a while to finally find a post office that was opened, she posted my book, got me 12 2nd class stamps, and a daffodil pin to cheer me up :)
M. came with some shopping that she got for me in Aldi, I have not shopped in Aldi, but everything is fine and cheaper than my normal shopping. It was lovely to have a chat at the window. She brought be some lovely pink carnations as a wee gift.
After my walk, I came home to find a wee bag of gifts from a young student; half a dozen eggs, teabags, and some oat flour which she had ordered from a friend in Ireland. I am so touched by the kindness that I am experiencing.
My sisters and I had a three way zoom, and it was the first time we all saw each other online. On whatapp we could see two and hear all three. They are well, like me, missing family, friends, but we all realise how fortunate we are to be able to self isolate, unlike some of my clients and friends who are working on the front line in not the best conditions and without the right protective cloths.Bless them all.
I am sad to hear our Prime Minister is very ill, I did not vote for him and not sure how good he is at his job, but I wish him well, I wish him a speedy recovery. I think the current crisis, may well have challenged him in to growing up and becoming more serious.
Su my singing teacher is great, we had two online meetings last night.One to do some breathing exercises and one for a sing along, it really cheers us all up.
I can't get an online shopping at all, luckily my neighbours get all I need for day to day, but I will need a bigger shopping at some point. I bought some wine on line, thought I was buying six bottles of Muscadet, a wee nod to John, it cost a bit more but thought it would be a nice treat, when it came it was six half bottles, so very expensive indeed , but I kept it any way.
I am sitting here at the table the sun is streaming in the windows, Mozart is playing , my peace plants look beautiful as do my pink carnations and my daffodils.
Yet I know the world is in a grave state and it still does not seem possible.
I am sending healing out to the North, the South the East and the West.
All shall be well
and all shall be well
and all manner of things shall be well......and so it is.
