LOCKDOWN DAY 1 IN DURBAN, SOUTH AFRICA

Day 1 .  Started at 2am for me with yet another sugar low of 2.8.  Again scrambled for sweet sugary stuff to eat and drink. Went to bed an hour later energy drained and exhausted.  Felt eerie at 7.30am. Fridays attract beggars going through our bin bags for scraps. Today there wasn't a soul about. Just 1 municipal worker in mask and gloves gathering up the bin bags in readiness for  collection.  The bin truck came on time. No delays.  It was quiet except for a car hooting loudly , picking up kids neaby,  interacting with the people who live there, spreading the disease.  Reports of stupid people gathering wafted in the newsfeeds throughout out the day. Videos of arrests. Drunk people revelling at 2am in Johannesburg.  We stayed put. 

Had to clean the house as the maid is unable to work now.  The dust causes havoc to my breathing system.  News of Dadi Janaaki dying..of the famous BK cult in India. So many spiritual questions unanswered. The mind boggles. Videos of conspiracy theories.  Fear. Worry. One has to be steadfast and ground oneself quick so not to get caught up in these so called warfare. Some say bio chemical weapons.  Released deliberately.  Who knows the truth... then fake news. Of deaths not yet happened.  Why do people deliberately cause panic?  Why give others anxiety unnecessarily...

No cooking today. We ate leftovers. Cannot waste food now. Anything still remaining was packed and frozen . To be thawed out another day. 

When will this nightmare end? Onward to day 2. Stay indoors stay safe wherever in the world you are. Thank you for reading. 

Peace and love 
LADY S ❣
