M is for Making A Plan

One of the things we've all had to learn during the pandemic is the ability of plan ahead - and to rethink that plan quickly!

For example, we needed to think about who we could ask for help to make sure we could stay at home if we had to self-isolate. Many of us had to learn how to shop online for many items when the shops themselves weren't physically open. Even a trip to the supermarket became more like a military manoeuvre rather than a quick trip out - are you masked up? Is the supermarket letting us in? Can we keep our social distance when we get in? Are the items we want available to buy? (sigh)

I've lost count of the number of occasions when I've planned out my week, only to have it change twice or three-times in a matter of hours!
