We are in our 7th week of self isolation and all of SA is still at level 4 of the national lockdown. Many South Africans returned to work this week which means that as industries start back up we will now be at risk of having electricity load shedding to add to our list of …
Another week of lockdown is behind us. I have stopped counting the days since I started self isolating but I know April 18th marked one calendar month since I left home. From now I will count how many days until the lockdown in South Africa is scheduled to end. Looking forward rather than back. There …

Our last weekend in the states was spent with me in bed as I was so ill. I missed our family dinner which had been planned on our last Saturday and also a BBQ with friends which was organized for the Sunday. I spent most of Monday alternating sleeping with packing. Mom caught the bug …
