Diary of our COVID 19 Lockdown | week 6

Our weekly review of what’s been happening in Lockdown for us, its a diary so in months and years to come we can look back and what we were doing and whats our thoughts, The family is Lockdown with Boo only able to venture out for a small amount of the time, where I’m a keyworker, dealing with the public and venturing out there.

That Time already…

I can’t believe it the end of week 6! as we are heading towards 2 months and thinking back that we have essentially lost March and April, May will be more of the same but at least the weather keeps getting better, even if we are limited in what we can do.

This week we began to put plans into motion with the garden and the house, I trimmed the bushes that have died, its odd but in our long stretch that circles around the house there are a couple of strips that have died, which makes no sense to why it happened last summer but not any other time of the year, I’ve stripped them back and begun to fertilise in an effort to save them, but I’m not optimistic, hopefully, this will work but there’s not a great deal of information about it, also the new addition to the garden has been confirmed for this weeks delivery.

Gaming Changes

In the house I’ve decided to change one of the rooms to a gaming room, this generally held my stuff and the Lego, but I’ve decided to reduce down on the displays of Lego, have some in storage and sell some that I’m really not that fussed about, its a tough choice but we as a family are generally gamers.

Every family is different and enjoy different things, they have different priorities, none of them is wrong etc so with us we like to game, the kids are getting older now and getting to that point where we can play together, let alone that rare time when Boo and I get to game together,

I’ve got a plan in mind and will take the rest of the year to spot bargains to fill the desks etc of equipment, hopefully, the sale of some Lego will fund the additional items we need, its is a big step but financially I will need to be cleve, the desks are laid out which is a positive start as well as the removal of some displays and Lego.

Kids

The kids have been getting on with their homeschooling just fine, it has been a straightforward week for them as they seem into their routine now, even with the Easter break they have managed to hit the road running since their return, Roo has been playing with Tigger more again, which is great, the only worry I have is her relationship with her friends, I’m not sure how often they speak and I don’t think they have that same connection compared to when they meet up at school, being that age they are still building that friendship etc.

Piglet has been her normal self, shes been playing a lot and doing a drawing, I think she is missing school more than the other two, just because of how she acts and her development, shes bee fine but she likes lots of people with lots of things to do, that the type of girl she is. Boo has continued being busy between her Blog and house stuff, she did get some flowers in her weekly bargain hunt, along with Flower bulbs. Next week we begin the big build.
