Good morning Wednesday

[Mouse]

Good morning everyone.

Is anyone working this week? I always take the time off between Christmas and New Year, but I know a lot of people do work it.

Apparently we’ll have an announcement later on today about new lockdown restrictions etc. Now that the second vaccine has been approved, I wonder if they’ll do a tighter lockdown, knowing the end should be in sight once enough people are vaccinated. I know a lot of parents are anxious to know what’s happening to schools opening. I also know a few who have decided not to send their children back on Monday.
In the March lockdown people were scared because they didn’t know what the virus was, whereas now people are scared because they do know what it is and how fast it’s spreading.

No real plans again for today. It’s quite nice having nothing to do! I’ve been catching up on TV programmes I’d recorded earlier in the year and forgotten about! I have got some paperwork that needs doing before the children are back on Monday, but there’s no rush

Enjoy your days everyone

Not working here. I’ve been off since Tuesday so I’m nicely chilled. Started sorting cupboards and things now so using my time wisely

Today I have been sorting out my playroom putting away the Christmas bits and pieces swapping them out for some 'Winter' bits. When I finished last week I didn't have the chance to have a good clean up just closed the door to worry about it later.

My area went in to Tier 4 on Boxing Day so not expecting anything to change for us unless they make things even more tighter but the problem is people seem to have given up with it all or they have 'it won't happen to me ' attitude as we have seen several people around us have people in their homes or have all gone off out together even though its not allowed. I don't know if its because of the vaccine they think it will all be ok now so they don't have to worry !

I was having such a relaxing day doing nothing and then the announcement happened and fb exploded.

I hope its not affected too much.

We are in tier 4 secondary schools open the 18th and primary schools remain fully open at the moment but who knows
