Thanks so much for all the lovely comments and favs on yesterday's Reading Glasses photo.
Today Australia has begun its lockdown and chaos is the new normal. All non essential businesses have been told to close but many don't seem to know what that means.
Some States have schools that are remaining open for the time being and some schools have closed. I think it will be a while before the seriousness of our situation sinks in for some.
I put this collage together and have decided to take the light hearted approach to our current situation. If we can all keep calm, drink tea and eat chocolate I am sure we will be fine eventually.
Oh so familiar! The same here. All least we have solidarity! Given the huge crowds at the weekend at country parks and seasides, social distancing being largely ignored, I suspect lockdown will happen here very soon too. Schools, pubs, gyms etc already shut but some shops remain open. But I suspect not for long now! Take care down there. I need to buy some chocolate next time I dare to venture out for food!
Well done you , a great collage to remind us , all over the globe of the dire situation we are all in ! But we must keep positive and soldier on in our own 2 metres square ! Keep safe Babs and David !
Oh Yes....I will stay calm, drink tea & eat chocolate ..love your collage Babs.....you & David stay healthy & safe in this unprecedented season...you gave us a smile.
it is the same here in the United States ....as things started to happen here with closing about ten days ago people were taking it as vacation time ... Ten days in and things have gotten better but it's taking the governors to force shutdowns to start getting it in hand.
I have plenty of tea and a couple of blocks of chocolate in the cupboard (might need to buy more if the panic buyers haven't yet got chocolate in their sights). Stay safe Babs and David.
Great collage. Here we find out tomorrow if the government is planning to introduce even stricter regulations. At the moment I still go into work but on reduced number of days
A super collage in the midst of a frightening situation. It's amazing how the world has changed in just a few short weeks. I'll take your advise to keep calm, drink tea and eat chocolate - it sounds like a perfect approach!
You are up to your usual sense of humor and cleverness with this collage! Tea and chocolate sounds delightful to me- and maybe some ice cream (o; I will be headed back to the supermarket Tues. or Wed. to see if I can get some of the things that were depleted when I was there last week. I'm just doing my regular shopping but I'm not hopeful I'll be able to get them.
Stay safe Be well!
