Nikon has hardly left my side this week; she seems to know when I'm unwell. Despite all efforts, I tested positive for COVID on Monday after feeling poorly Sunday afternoon. Symptoms have been different this time around, compared to when I had the virus in January. This strain has knocked me for six: fatigue, nausea, headache, loss of appetite, loss of concentration, pain in my fingers, legs and arms, sneezing, coughing, blocked nose. In January, it started with all three of us having toothache and then constant sneezing. I spent isolation binge watching Ben Affleck movies, but as my eyes also hurt with this variant, I struggled to watch anything. Both times though, I haven't lost my sense of taste and smell. Just want to feel better now!

Making ghost prints over the weekend was fun! This is all part of a major project that I'm currently working on in short bursts of creativity!
Happy Monday everyone. I hope the sun's shining where you are too 😀

This week is mental health awareness week and the theme is loneliness. As well as encouraging students to write positive and happy words, quotes and phrases, I knitted a sample 'trauma teddy' where it's mostly made in one piece and then sewn together with no attachments that could come loose or hazardous to the recipient. They are designed to being comfort to both children and older people and are small enough to fit in a pocket or bag for those moments when a hug is needed!

Have a great weekend!

I've been making origami paper roses today for a May Day display in the library. I discovere the roses hold their shape far better if they're made out of cardstock than paper. Discovered this after making several paper ones.

Wishing everyone a great weekend and Bank Holiday whatever you're up to!
