Stay isolated and carry on

It all feels unreal. Having neglected by blog since DB was born suddenly I feel a need to record what is happening, in case i wake up from this dream.

We are trying to keep to a timetable. Oh, the irony having avoided routine since birth now it seems important to keep some shape in our lives. 

Having a daily target and a catalyst to identify one thing that made us happy are tiny tools to keep us on track. We also have a list of important people who are self isolating and there is a reminder to send postcards, pictures and messages. Most of the other things are mental fluff, but reminders that life goes on and lets make the most of it. We have our little faces so we can acknowledge our emotions and check them to see if we need a nudge back into feeling positive, as after all all emotions are valid, even anger and sadness as they are real.
