Z
Zombies
It is traditional for folk doing the A to Z to end with a
swarm of Zombies and it’s a tradition I plan to continue. Now you may say well
that’s not right the Coronavirus might be dangerous but it does not turn folk
into Zombies. Well that is true but the fact is it is not the virus that will
turn you into a Zombie it is the precautions we take to social distance and
isolate under lockdown.
Many can cope OK . . . I do, I just pretend every day is Sunday, but others
don’t? (that's others dont cope rather than others dont pretend everyday is Sunday) I noticed a certain designer fashion business had changed its target
market and was doing well selling hoodies and tracksuit bottoms. This is a slippery road to self-abandonment. I
mean who shuffles about aimlessly wearing hoodies and tracksuit bottoms
wondering what to do and forming huge queues outside supermarkets. . . . . . .
. Well Zombies do. And don’t think I’ll be OK I won’t slide down this slipper
road; because this is the new normal. In a years’ time we will have all succumbed
to it as our mental resistance is slowly broken down. It is a terrible fate and
one that as time passes becomes more likely as the powers that be talk more and
more about how things may need to change for many years.
It wont get Me
Rob,
ReplyDeleteFirst time visitor...at least for this round of A2Z but won't be the last. I've fallen down on this year's challenge. I haven't done near the near blog discovery hop as years past and recently gotten behind on replies on my site and doing return visits but I'll get catch up eventually. Anywho, congrats on finishing up another April A to Z! I have no plans to be a zombie, either. My day-to-day activity hasn't change much except DH is working from home and while I love having him here it does impact what I need/want to do. That's fine. This is all temporary and I'll enjoy having him around for as long as I can which is for now until June. Great way to round out the A to Z Challenge with Zombie. I didn't go this route as it wasn't a word workable for my Cathy's Pinup Girl Art Sketch Series which I hope if you get the opportunity that you'll stop by today to check out my 'Z' post. Anywho, I need to zoom away to get some things done. Stay well and God bless!
I will visit in a couple of days now that I can relax a bit and chill after the A to Z. . . .Thanks for visiting.
DeleteSome people seem to be protesting in the hopes of becoming zombies. ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat work with this post and excellent job of getting to z.
I hope you and yours are staying safe and healthy during this difficult time.

We are safe in our house here. One advantage of rural life is its easier to avoid folk.
DeleteAnd it is always good to reach Z.
Well, you made it to Z before the zombies got you, and that's worth celebrating. Hang in there!

OOOOOoooooo I do feel a bit Zombie-ish it seems like ages since I had a chilled trip out for a day in the sun.
DeleteGreat, you just ended your challenge as you start it, with a lot of optimism and happiness ;)) I enjoyed reading your thought during this month, life is indeed not easy these days, but sun is always shining (well, maybe a little less in England ;D)!
ReplyDeleteStay safe, and take care
Z is for Zakka
Pretending it to be Sunday. But I have work days that identify the day. On the whole, I think many have adopted well to the staying at home situation. Let us motivate all to stay safe and still do from home what they can to keep the economy moving.
