Family Time

With the rise in Covid we invited all the family to take lateral flow tests before we went round to Paul’s for Sunday lunch this afternoon. Everyone showed a negative result, so we went and had a lovely time. Paul and Harriet’s house is so airy and we were all pretty well spaced out, so we are keeping our fingers crossed that the dreaded lurgy wasn’t lurking in the shadows today.

Before we went, both John and I were like dormice. John stayed in bed and I wrapped myself in a blanket on the sofa while we hibernated for most of the day. John is tired after all his exertions yesterday with fitting the under-cupboard lighting, and I am just plain fed up again.

Who knows where this mood comes from? I don’t – but I don’t seem to be able shake it off. It’s all very well for a little while and I can skim over the surface but then it comes back again. Grrr……

I suppose little things can trigger a low mood and perhaps a contributory factor was that we found our newly-fitted solar panel system had thrown an alarm again this morning, so it’s not working. I tried to phone the electrician but no joy today, so it’ll have to wait until tomorrow. More Grrr……

Ah, well, fingers crossed that we both feel better tomorrow. We certainly enjoyed seeing the family today, who always uplift our spirits, so I’m hoping we’ll go to bed on a higher note.

Take care everyone. God bless.
