What I’ve Read During Lockdown
What haven’t I read really? Ok, that’s a bit of an exaggeration. But with all this free time stuck at home, I’ve read far more this year than I have for a long time. I used to read non-stop as…
Quarantine Diaries | Part 2 | Feeling Drained
Hello again. Been a while, hasn’t it? Normally when I take an extended break from blogging, it’s because life has gotten busy. This couldn’t be further from the truth right now. I’m now up to 20 weeks of being furloughed…
