Snapped out of our Smugness

Just yesterday we were talking about extending our bubble to include the Cook Islands, and then WHAM! today we are back up the alert levels. I’m feeling sorry for the people in Auckland who are on strict restrictions with schools closed and people told to stay home until the government decides next steps.

Being in the Bay of Plenty we are at level 2, which just means social distancing again, this time is a bit different though because we are being encouraged to wear masks when we are out and about.

I’ve been on YouTube checking out the many many “how to’s” and have dug out some cotton and elastic and thought I might give it a go.

I quite like the stripey one and the tartan/plaid one. The next question is which style… maybe one of each.

So, yep. It totally sucks. I feel like going back is way harder, and I’m hoping that focusing on making things helps….. though it might also mean a whole lot of new projects started too!

  1. It’s a shock alright. Here in the UK masks have to be worn everywhere. When will this all end. Hang in there. We have our crafts to keep us busy xx
