I wrote this a month ago for Chantelle’s blog which is full of interesting things. I’ve had such a lot of sad and unexpected “stuff” to deal with since then (ironic that my last post reviewed a book about grief), that I now long for the uneventful days of January and am very grateful to have this to put up on what should be my usual fortnightly post. Meanwhile I hope all my regular readers are fine and running for those vaccines the moment they’re offered!
Welcome to another guest post for my ‘Hello Home…’ pandemic themed feature. It would seem all of us have experienced or are still experiencing a lockdown of some sort while the corona virus continues to blight our lives. Although we are all in the same situation, we experience it differently because our homes are all so different. Thinking about this inspired me to write a piece a few weeks ago dedicated to my house and what it has meant to me during these strange and unsettling times. Today please welcome authorJessica Norrie. If you would like to know more about Jessica and her books, her links and bio are at the end of the post!

Ah – perhaps I’m endowing it with too much symbolism! Interesting to hear from around the world anyway and thanks for your comment.

I’m sorry to hear that you’ve had to face unexpected, sad events. I got my first vaccination dose a week ago, and I’m scheduled for the second one in three weeks.

Thank you. I’m getting to the point where I’d mug someone for a vaccine. It seems so near and yet so far!

You’re welcome. Here in the US, getting the vaccine is dependent on what state you live in. I hope you’re able to get yours soon.

Ah – age and priority dependent here. I shouldn’t wish to be older, should I?! All the best.
