No conversation with friends

[katriona_s]

This weekend too, I tidied inside of the new closet in the kitchen with mother. It was a fun to talk about how to use the closet and work together with her. Though I think… Yes, doing something or talking with mother is good. But, it is now nearly the end of Feb and I have not met any friend this year. As for the last year 2021, I have met just 2

Yes, this is not natural, to be isolated from friends...
Well, I have been careful enough but I meet my friends as usual now. We are all adults, all vaccinated, when someone doesn´t feel well, doesn´t meet anyone. Responsibility has pays off, so far no spreading covid, not even omicron, even though some people here had it.
Our pub opened as soon as the restrictions were cancelled and since then it has been our meeting place as usual. We cancelled the dancing event though (for the third time) - because the musicians are ill. We are not a big community but we live almost normally now. And I hope it will stay at least like that.

Oh I envy you for your relationship with your neighbours.

The problem for me is that I live in a big city and it’s difficult to avoid the crowded place. To go to anywhere I need to take the local train or bus which always carry many passengers, even if I plan to meet my friend in a big park or other safe place, first we have to take the public transportation(unfortunately I don’t drive). And in a big city there are various people, always some speak loudly, some of them could be anti-masks or anti-vaccination. I can’t think that the towncentre is a safe place.
My best friend, with whom I have very often met, gone out or eaten out together, has some underlying diseases so she has been quite nervous and careful about the infection, no meeting nor events with her at all. Sad.

Yes, I am happy to live in the village - and not only because the covid.:-)
But as I have mentioned, one must be reasonable and responsible and considerate.

Mind you, as there are no shops, no facilities in Spolí, we all have to travel to the town.
I can´t avoid meeting crowded places as well.
What is a big advantage - driving a car. You are independent in many ways. But living is a little village without proper public transport means that a car is a necessity. I fear the time when I am unable to drive.

I understand. Living in a quiet village, and in a big city. Both have their own merit and demerit. We just have to consider our own situation and decide what we should do.
