Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted for so long! This week, I took part in a writing exercise where the prompt for writing was "juxtaposition." My mind immediately went to the highs and lows of lockdown, particularly in family life. A few people were amused by what I wrote and said it resonated, so I thought I would share! Do share it with others, if you enjoy it and let me know! A Week in the Life of Lockdown: The Highs and Lows Monday Feeling optimistic about the week ahead. Gave myself a pep-talk. Ancestors faced worse. No more over dramatising. Big girl pants on. Home-schooling planned and resourced. Confident children will comply. Diet starts again today. Let’s do this! Tuesday I hate my life! How can anyone simultaneously be a Maths tutor, French vocab specialist, sibling-squabble negotiator, IT consultant and meal provider, whilst retaining any shred of sanity? Working from home is near-impossible. Taking refuge in wine and Dairy Milk.
