I should really start this post by saying Happy New Year, but I’m really not feeling it this year. Obviously I really hope that you do all have a great new year, but I’m not feeling so optimistic. Every new year’s eve I send everybody a text at midnight to wish them happy new year,…

Coronavirus Diary – Page 14 (Social chaos)
This week I was supposed to be on holiday in sunny Spain. Because of Covid -19 this hasn’t happened and it is not likely to happen any time soon. Even though we were not going away, me and my family decided to try and have a few days out together. Yesterday we decided to go…
Coronavirus Diary – Page 14 (A mug of frothy familiarity)
After what feels like a million years in lockdown, from the 4th July pubs and bars were allowed to open again in England. I had heard on the news about all of the social distancing measures that were being put in place so that this was able to happen. I was imagining hand sanitizers everywhere,…
Coronavirus Diary – Page 13 (Feeling slightly normal)
Today was the first day that I have had a proper day out since the end of March. I haven’t been shielding, but I haven’t had work to go to, so I have been stuck in the house for a long time. I do have a few serious medical conditions, so I have been trying…
Coronavirus Diary – Page 12 (Almost there)
Today the announcement was finally made that England would be easing the lockdown even further. It’s very complicated, but in some ways things should start to feel more normal soon. In other ways they will not feel normal at all because of all the social distancing measures that have been put in place. From July…
Coronavirus Diary – Page 11 (Accessible Social Distancing)
I think it is very fair to say that the world we left before lockdown is not the same as the world that we are coming out to. Tragically so many people have been effected by Coronavirus. It is devastating to think what has happened to so many people and their loved ones. I think…
Coronavirus Diary – Page 10 (Looking to the future)
A few friends have been asking me what I am looking forward to when the lockdown is over. The truth is, just normal every day life. I want that back so much, but here is a list of things that I can’t wait to get back. Freedom – I can’t wait to be able to…
Coronavirus Diary – Page 9 (The beginning of the end… hopefully)
Here we are at the end of week ten of all this strangeness in the UK. I was going to say lockdown, but we are not actually locked down any more. Not quite anyway. Everything feels really strange and I can’t really keep up. I thought that the second I could go out and do…
Coronavirus Diary – Page 6 (Feeling loved and supported)
It’s times like this when we need our friends the most. We need somebody to complain to, we need somebody to try and escape sometimes rubbish reality with, we need somebody to cuddle us and tell us that everything’s going to be OK. The problem is, we can’t have that cuddle, we can actually get…
Coronavirus Diary – Page 5 (Staying mentally well)
As you may have read on some of my previous posts, I have been really struggling mentally with the lockdown. I know that this isn’t easy for anyone, but when you have difficulties with your mental health, or even if you have in the past, then this is an extremely overwhelming time. I would just…
