Frustration

We did not panic buy. Our cupboards are looking a bit bare and the online shop is taking over two weeks to be delivered. In the meantime, we rely on our son to brave the supermarket encounters.

Our prison is cosy enough now that spring has arrived. There’s washing on the line and our view of the mountain is looking greener…hardly maximum security. But the need for social interactions, even the brief hellos, how you doing and the sound of other voices is acute. You only know you miss those things when they are no longer there.

Oh well, there’s a new season of the Ozarks on Netflix. Time for a cuppa….
