LOCKDOWN DIARY ~ Day 22

​April 17
The day started really well... I could feel the change the minute I woke up... it was in the air... the kitchen floor got mopped... in fact, all the floors got mopped... not swept first… but hey, whose going to argue about that... even if a job is half done, it's always a joy to at least see it getting done... I'm just grateful that my son decided to do the right thing and take the initiative soon after waking.
 
And it was immediately as if the last few miserable days never happened... the television went back on and we're best buddies again  … He's just gone shopping... I think he needed the break.
 
I got on my knees and prayed he would be safe from the virus and all else. He has his face mask on at least. I let him know to be prepared for the BIG STERILIZING SPRAY THING when he arrives back, so that he could prepare also to have the right attitude about it when it happened!
 
Today's going to be a GOOD-GOOD-DAY! 
 
Later
My son has been amazing today... he's come home from the shops... did all the right things so that I could seterilise him and the groceries on the way in the front door, and he went straight to shower after dumping his clothes into the washing machine... then he decided to organise a braai (barbecue) for our lunch. The TV was stitched off by him before he went to the shops... It's been wonderful... I just knew when I woke up, that today would be a GOOD DAY... YAY! We helped each other pack the groceries and all's good in our world again.  In the evening we watched ‘Flash’ together.  We’re both loving it.  Our kind of chilling movie in the evenings when our brains are too tired to concentrate on anything else.  We watched the ‘Supergirl’ series before, until there were no more of them to watch, then moved onto Flash!  Good escape shows! We’d both love to have things like Australian Master Chef, The Voice, America’s Got Talent, etc. to watch, but as we can’t afford that kind of TV service, we are just so grateful for the Netflix we do have thanks to my grandson’s and family’s beautiful gift of his Smart Television and Netflix… what a wonderful blessing
 
I am grateful for this lovely and peaceful day that started and ended so well.

Thank you for sharing.
