Checking in
Just to confirm I'm still around, still healthy (ish, curse this plane pollen), still working harder than I am really happy with (ow, my back), still absolutely no likelihood of returning to the office (absolutely not till July, probably not till autumn even for the odd day I think).
Things are... okay. Not great, but okay.
Three good things, though:
1. Foaming elderflower in the hedges by the river
2. The look on the face of our subpostmaster when I wanted to buy 110 second class stamps. (It's a newsagent and only did the PO thing a few months ago; I don't think they do much bulk...)
3. Doing something that helps. I needed the stamps for a local society, which is staffed entirely by people over 70, so I am running errands to help them keep up with each other remotely. Yay. Not everything is about barest necessities and grim survival. If it is going to be like this forever, let there be small things like this to make people happy.
