Being me in the world
I’ve decided to remind myself what EBC (Easter before Covid) looked like 🙂
Two weeks ago, Friday, was the first day of Lockdown. Now, we have one week to go. The first week really seemed to take forever. Then, I think we fell into some sort of rhythm and now I can’t believe it’s only a week to go. The biggest thing now is to wonder what is…
I’m making up for lost time… (And posting more than once today 🙂 ) I’ve decided to go away from Covid and Lockdown and think about what is out there… Imagine looking down on earth from out there somewhere and knowing that, on Earth, we finally fight the same war against a common enemy.
Six days have gone by since I last posted – and they seem to gel into one. I don’t know about anyone else, but I find that every day follows basically the same pattern…Wake up (relatively) early…work (online) for a few hours (watching the same programmes on DSTV, except for what is officially the weekend,…
There is an initiative going around for everyone to go outside and make a noise at 19h00 to show our thanks to the frontline heroes and support for all essential workers. Despite having doctors in the family, I am mortified to confess that tonight was the first time we did this. And we were alone:…

Don’t know about anyone else, but Covid has taken our attention elsewhere – sometimes into the garden, sometimes into our own psyche and sometimes up! In this case, onto the roof of the house. I mean, why not? Who actually thinks about how things look from above where we spend so much time? Okay, we…
The more things change, the more they stay the same – they say. Well, what better way to see that than by looking around us, particularly at familiar places? These pics were taken on the farm just about 10 years ago. If we’d been able to go there this year for/around Easter, the views would…
There are a lot of pieces of writing, or just comments, going around at the moment that refer to taking stock of the world around us, seeing things from a new perspective and focusing on what is most important. All of these have merit, because, when one is, of necessity, removed from the energy and…
Sometimes, you just need to have fun with photography… These are taken at what we call ‘Ice Heaven’ on the farm…the name speaks for itself.
