So today was a bit of a non event. Not in a bad way, but I was in the office for most of it and really missed the kids. It’s perhaps an insight into what life will be like when lockdown is finally lifted. I also didn’t appreciate quite how uneventful life can be withoutContinue reading “DAY 84 – 9 June 2020”

Well done everyone! You’ve made it through yet another Monday in Lockdown! It is just a fact of life that all important changes kick in on a Monday (diets, new exercise regimes, new jobs etc) and so it was in the Low household. Without any discussion between us, we all seem to have woken upContinue reading “DAY 83 – 8 June 2020”

We are somehow at the end of yet another weekend and not quite sure where it has gone. Fortunately the winds have died down today so the gazebo has remained in tact and in our garden!After a couple of tough days we were determined to get out of our slump and try and have aContinue reading “DAY 82 – 7 June 2020”

Sadly the thought I had last night that we were alternating good days and not so good days hasn’t come true today. We are all fine before anyone gets concerned but today definitely was a case of just getting through the day rather than feeling that any of us achieved anything.I’m thinking that the weatherContinue reading “DAY 81 – 6 June 2020”

Well today started off feeling like a Monday morning after all of the excitement yesterday and finished feeling like a Friday. I’m still not quite sure which day it actually is but Steph reassures me I’m not working tomorrow. The celebrations yesterday clearly caught up with us all today as we’re not used to partying duringContinue reading “DAY 80 – 5 June 2020”

So the big day has arrived and of course it meant that our 79th day in lockdown was all about my wee lad and trying to mark his 2nd birthday. And what a day we had. The weather might have been pants and there was no excessively large party for a 2 year old butContinue reading “DAY 79 – 4 June 2020”

Well today could have turned into a disaster for this diary as for a moment it looked like I wasn’t going to have anything to write. But in a last minute wise decision I opted not to go and sit in a queue for 12 hours waiting to get through the newly reopened McDonald’s driveContinue reading “DAY 78 – 3 June 2020”

Well another gorgeous day in lockdown is over and perhaps it was the last gorgeous day of the summer. But let’s not be pessimistic about things and try and focus on the positives.We had a Sherlock Holmes style mystery this morning which remains unresolved. After M’s late night antics last night, he refused to finallyContinue reading “DAY 77 – 2 June 2020”

Well I never. A new day, a new week and a new month and we’re still in lockdown. The lifting of some restrictions today doesn’t have any effect on the Lows and we continue to juggle #RemoteWorking and #HomeSchooling. I made the mistake of saying to E at breakfast that after the weekend it was a school dayContinue reading “DAY 76 – 1 June 2020”

Hindsight is a wonderful thing but I don’t think I needed it today as I had already called yesterday that today was going to be busy! Reflecting on the weekend I also think I picked a stonker for a three dayer. When, pre-lockdown, did we ever have such good weather on weekends? Unheard of!With M’sContinue reading “DAY 75 – 31 May 2020”
