A Different Kind of Easter

Easter means something different for each person you ask. For me, Easter is usually a time for seeing family and eating lots of chocolate. Things aren't usual at the moment, which means that every small piece of normality is even more precious.

On Saturday night, I played Monopoly with my family. The game lasted over two hours and my brother got bored and left after the first hour, but still, I am grateful for the fact that I have family around me to spend time with. On Easter Sunday, we went for a long dog walk and Frankie met some sheep. That evening, I video called my siblings and watched 'Yesterday' with my mum and dad. My gran sent me a beautiful card, my nana and grandad sent me a gin Easter egg, and my uncle sent me a creme egg Easter egg- none of which I was expecting, which came as such a nice surprise. Despite it being all the restrictions, I am grateful for the fact that we are still allowed outside for exercise and the fact that I am lucky enough to have a garden and things to do inside. 

Today, I watched the first episode of series three of Killing Eve and made some progress with the book I'm reading. The weather today is a lot colder than it has been, so I'm going to continue an online course I started inside, and then go for a walk later. I'm at work this evening, which I am actually looking forward to. It feels good to know that you are helping other people.

What are the high and lowlights of your Easter weekend?
