Gosh what a tumultuous few days. I have gone from Tier 2 to 3 to 4 in the space of about 72 hours. I was bogged down by the news yesterday and admit it got to me. I am now making a concerted effort to not get all consumed.
I came across these two little fun memes on some of the blogs I read so thought it would make a good diversion for a while. Links will take you to the reviews where there are some.

We’re in the highest tier too 😢😩 0% Availability in our ICUs…..I can’t even watch the news. 😷 be safe
I am sorry to hear about your sever Tier jump and that you have found yourself really bogged down by it all. We’re are still in Tier 3 but I fear that we will go up after Christmas too, although I have tested positive for Covid so no going out for me until the 28th anyway! I also sympathise about the news and I have stopped watching it completely.
These are fun memes though – I took part in the second meme too – and your answers are great! I particularly love your motto of The School of Starting Over and that a good day involves The Garden of Forgotten Wishes, that sounds lovely. 😊
