I find things continually popping into my head and I think “Oh – I should blog about this”, but lately this virus seems to have taken root and control of my brain cells. And I am so over it and bored with it all. So hopefully to banish it all to the deepest part of my mind (and sometimes I wonder how dark and deep that can go!), decided to put it all in alphabetical order with hopefully more positives than negatives about the cursed thing. I am a little bored so this could be similar to reading the telephone directory. Would love to hear others lists.
A – apathetic attitude and acceptance
B – benefits of making people slow down life a little and enjoy the simpler things in life
C – conspiracy theories abound
D – depression
E – empty roads, towns and beaches
F – friends re-connecting and furlough (thank god for furlough)
G – gratitude
H – health, it is only when we lose our health is threatened that we truly appreciate it
I – ignorance of people believing everything they read on social media
J – jubilation when the first lock down ended
K – kindness of people
L – likeminded people are the best to follow on twitter otherwise it is a rabbit hole of anger
M – mental illness which unfortunately has been more prevalent with the forced isolation
N – nowhere to hide, no chance of running away from it all and nature taking a breath
O – outdoors, being forced to meet outdoors is not necessarily a bad thing, get some much needed fresh air
P – politicians, would hate to be in their shoes as they are damned if that do and damned if they don’t
Q – questions, lots of them
R – respect for all the essential workers
S – sadness for all the loved ones that have passed on during this time
T – tears of which there have been many all across the globe and of course Trump
U – understanding
V – vaccine, a little sceptical but keeping my mind open
W – weight, and we all know about that
X – eXhaustion of the never-ending bombardment on all news fronts
Y – year 2020 is a bit of a write off
Z – zoom – say no more
