In South Africa our numbers are staying quite low at the moment and our lockdown is almost non-existent. We can travel, gather, do whatever as long as we wear masks and maintain distancing when in closed spaces. It’s made sense here. But we will see what happens as we go into a cold wet winter and everyone’s stuck indoors. Things might change. I’m so glad you got to spend time with friends. It’s so important!!!

Hey thanks for stoping by 😊. It is important but we all feel like criminals. It sucks bad. I just came back from a walk with Joy. It is 21.45 here, so curfew time. Again I felt like a criminal being outside still. It's a weird feeling we all have, hard to describe.
I hope you don't reach the point of going into lockdown like Europe is. I get it, for the sake of the sick and the hospitals. But the issue is not that we don't have enough ICU beds, we don't have the personal because our government cut them short over the years. And now they are complaining about the hospitals being "full" when they aren't, they just don't have staff anymore. Nothing has changed in the health care system last year. The promises the government made weren't kept. 9000 more health care workers quit in 2020 because they couldn't stand it anymore.
Oh jeez, the full moon, I need to think about sth else lol. How was your vaca?
Hi! Got ya. It sucks.
Our holiday has been great. Just taking advantage of being away from home. As you know we work from home, my kids homeschool, so we don’t leave home unless it’s for groceries or exercise or work, so it gets monotonous.
So we’ve been so happy to be out and seeing new sites along our coast here in South Africa. It’s so beautiful and we want to take advantage of it.
Hope you get to get outside more now that Summers coming.
Monotonous is the word of the year 😂 .
I guess a lot of people can relate to it these days lol. I mean it is dragging us really down here, I've spoken to a few neighbors who have lost their businesses too due to the situation and even though we are lucky with the area, compared to the once in the bigger cities, it still gets to you mentally, and when that happens you can be in the nicest place but won't see it.
Happy to hear that your little get away went well, you deserve it 🤗
