Online Funeral

Another cold day, this time with a light layer of snow on top of the ice. James and I continued with our photo project. This feels exactly the right thing to do during our winter lockdown. It would be so nice to achieve some long planned goals like this during our enforced quiet time, making a positive out of a negative. The next project will be converting my Dad’s slides to photos, and then tackling our own photo collection which will also be a mammoth task. 

At lunch time we attended Sue’s funeral online. It was a moving tribute to her. Because only twenty people are currently allowed to attend funerals in person, the majority of funerals are being broadcast online. This happened sometimes before 2020, but it is now the norm rather than the exception, another change to our society due to Covid 19. 

Cat and I have a new series to watch: Bridgerton. Set in the 18th century with a diverse cast, it’s historically inaccurate in many ways but it’s good fun and the costumes and settings are delightful.
