Pleased to report I still have my shit together. Well, sort of. Even though most of the days I do my hair, put on makeup, perfume and good clothes to sit in my garden, lately I’ve been itching for more. I’ve been missing getting ready to go out, you know, the nice dress, the nice […]Read Post ›

Today I’ve been feeling incredibly sad. 888 more people died since yesterday, in hospitals only. I feel bad for complaining, I feel bad for carrying on with my life, I feel bad there’s poverty, I feel bad that I am useless. I feel that it’s unfair some people live and some people don’t.

I had to count the days. Last time I updated my Coronavirus Diaries was on the 5th of April. Then it was silence. As you can imagine, nothing extraordinary has happened to me in the meantime.

Tomorrow is my seventh day of isolation. It looks like I am okay, no symptoms. So I have this to hang on too, which is good. Today it was actually a good day. I am struggling to keep track of time, I am desperate to cuddle my niece, take a packed tube to Central London, […]Read Post ›

I skipped day 7, which was yesterday. I was very very very low, the main reason being that I didn’t sleep enough the night before.
