Staying connected during the pandemic

About six or seven weeks ago (unsure, I’ve lost all concept of time) much of Sydney was placed in lockdown in an effort to stop the delta strain in it’s tracks, however for a variety of reasons which we will not get into here the lockdown has been extended for at least another month but the truth is we don’t actually know how far away we are from seeing each other in person again.

It’s been a lonely and frustrating time and if mostly shy introverted folks like myself are starting to struggle with the lack of human interaction just imagine the extroverts among us!

On Wednesday, 4th of August we had our first Zoom (or should I say “gloom”) session and it went so well that are going to do it again on a fortnightly basis to keep in touch and keep that cabin fever and epic sad at bay.

At this stage it is unsure if our Annual Picnic will go ahead during September but as soon as those lockdown restrictions are lifted we will make a plan to get together and have a proper meet up.

Stay safe out there during these frankly rather frightening times and don’t be afraid to reach out if you are in need of some cheer and community.

First thing you should know about me is that I'm rubbish when it comes to talking about myself... I never know what to say. I will try though... *ahem*... I'm a creative soul, ever since I can remember I've been making up stories, drawing, making music, art and even sometimes clothing and delicious things to eat. Creativity and self expression is at the core of everything I do and I suppose this site is another opportunity for me to share this with other like-minded people. Three fictional characters that I relate to are: Lisa Simpson, Brianne of Tarth and Makoto Kino (Sailor Jupiter)... take from that what you will. When I'm not working on my stuff I'm hanging out in nature and doing the work/uni thing. I enjoy martial arts, learning more about sustainable and eco friendly living and growing my own food. You might also notice that I'm a proper nerd burger... and I never grew out of that Goth "phase". I think that about covers it! Lovely to meet you and thank you for reading. ^_^ - L
