I intended to have a rant here about people who do not follow the rules/restrictions relevant to Covid 19. But just in thinking about it, I got it out of my system.
So you are spared...
And ranting is not in my nature and to be truthful, in the end, I felt more like weeping. And especially thinking of my father, whose birthday is this month and who endured years in a PoW camp thinking of a better life in the future.
I have been a ranter but my neighbour’s sister runs an A&E unit and said in the week before Christmas they were swamped with suicide attempts so I could understand why some people made the decision to get home - everybody has to do their own checks and balances. I’m more annoyed about schools reopening- feels like an act of national vandalism when I look at the curves (almost a vertical line for Cambridge).
That's disturbing news about the suicide attempts. I was referring to people who ignore the (simple) hands-face-space exhortation as an expert recently said this is key to combating the virus. Also people who had huge parties at New Year and those who shouted that Covid is a hoax. I agree about schools.
Thinking about your dad who went through so much...I think he would have thought we are all complains wimps & to get a grip & behave sensibly! I could easily have a rant...I have become a bit of a one myself but it gets you into bother! @judithg All primary schools back this week round here Judith.
@quietpurplehaze I agree with you about them - luckily not very prevalent round here (loads of mask wearing and people keeping a distance) but our rates are still soaring which is just scary. @happypat here too - anxiety at an all time high about it.
Love how you turned something awful into a symbol of love. I empathize with the rant though. It is so maddening that so many people are so inconsiderate.
Lovely image! We’re just beyond ranting with our county being one of the top worst in the whole state of California! Looking for a new place to hike today - all the trails we passed were very crowded with hikers without masks! We just drove by and took our usual walk where we rarely pass anyone!
Well, hope you can make it. It 's too cold for me to go out in the winter on the scooter so I am locked-down anyway!
You are right of course, Peter - thank you for wise words.
