Covid-19 | The Journal, Part 12

Covid-19, Home Schooling, Politics, Scrapbooking

After the announcement from Boris earlier this week, there is definitely hope that we are on the way out of this …

I’ve included what I’ve/we’ve been binge-watching and six numerical facts, alongside some positive signs of Spring and a reflective moment:

Lots of good news re the vaccine rollout program and continued speculation that schools will reopen on 8th March. 🙂 I’ve paired that page with a letter from school informing us that most of the staff has now received a first dose of the vaccine (not shown). 🙂 🙂

Finally, the news we’d all been waiting anxiously for – the UK government’s road map for opening up the country and economy again over the next few months. I have my fingers crossed and am preparing myself for a few more months of being patient with the restrictions.

I stitched a 6×8 pocket to hold three tags – you might notice that I’m only good with stitching in a straight line.

  1. And you are quite good at stitching around that curved opening in your pocket! You are certainly capturing a lot of good news about vaccines & the possibilities of re-opening up life to all that is familiar.

    1. There’s so much bad news in the journal, it’s good to have the positive news about the vaccine in there as well. Global vaccination is the way out of this.
      Haha, I think you mean wobbly stitching around the pocket’s cut-out curve! 🙂

  2. I am not even good at stitching a straight line. Ha!! Did you use a sewing machine? Amazing idea. Love the way you are journaling life through scrapbooking. I have started writing in a journal but on my bad days when I probably need it most, I don’t want to write. I just want to go back to bed.

    1. Yes the stitching is courtesy of my sewing machine. 🙂 I’d like to think that The Boy and his cousins will like to look at the two Covid journals in the future and be amazed! 🙂
      On my worst days I also go back to bed – armed Netflix on my laptop and a mug of tea. 🙂

  3. You’ve made a super job of those tags! Your recording of the pandemic has been second to none – and your grandchildren will find them invaluable when they are studying the pandemic in their history classes :).
