Looking forward

As we continue our quest as a nation to quell the spread of COVID 19, it's all too easy to focus on the sacrifices we are making. While some of us have experienced greater change than others, it has undoubtedly affected us all.

It's a heartbreaking sight to see so many businesses close, some permanently, and the loss of countless jobs. Staying at home, as we are being implored to do, can be very trying. There's only so many times, we can spring clean, sort our wardrobes or, in my case, rearrange the furniture!

What we can do, however, is plan for our future, for when we reach the other side of this awful situation. We all hope life will return to some kind of normality, and when it does, we will hopefully be able to enjoy the things we are missing out on now.

While we are spending time at home - especially over the easter break - we could be looking at future ways we could improve our living environment. Perhaps by planning small renovation, or creating an updated furnishing wish list?

Not only will this put us in good stead for a time when we can put these things into action, it will also give us something positive to focus on, now, during this unfortunate time.

This month, from my home office, I look at ways we could be planning a home improvement, renovation or new build.

Perhaps you could try this yourself, even just for fun!
