I’ve had an awful flu this past week (not covid, I got tested). Let’s put it this way, I will not take for granted being able to lie horizontally and breathe at the same time. I got infected because I got frivolous with mask wearing (I am double jabbed for covid). The mask goes back on and the flu jab is to be scheduled asap!

When we are sick, priorities come into clear focus and life is simplified. I was grateful for my family, my cat and my friends. I rejoiced when I found energy again to do the most basic of tasks. And something I learned during lockdowns – always have some sort of event booked, even if it’s a small online gathering, so you have something to look forward to.
