Hi Marit, I’m so sorry you are temporarily without a job. On the plus side – it gives you more time for your art and crafting, and your online workshop … but never nice to be unable to work. Your Chronicles are very self explanatory this week – everyone around the world will understand the pictures. So far we are not on lockdown, but many people will not go out much, myself included, due to health conditions. Stay safe, and have a lovely week Heather xx #13

Hi Marit. I’m sorry you are currently out of work. Staying at home is lovely, but I hope you have sufficient art stash to keep you going:-) It sounds like a great idea to prepare a new series of videos and tutorials – well done.
Take care. Stay safe. God bless.

Aw Marit, you just get used to a routine and *pouf* it all changes again – I know you understand why, but nonetheless, it’s a shame to be temporarily unemployed. It sounds like a great job to do, so I bet it won’t be hard to go back to. Meanwhile I’m not surprised but impressed that you already have a lot work planned to fill your time! I don’t keep a journal but am definitely going to record these crazy weeks in some way. Keep well dear gal, and try to enjoy your atelier time!

Now that is a clever idea to use your time so productively and it makes sense. If we are all going to be staying home more often then online is the way to go. I also was thinking ab out making you youTube clips on art but the technicality is getting the better of me. Must look at how this is possible. It will be interesting to see. So sorry to hear you are no longer working …. strange times. Stay safe and keep crafting your beautiful art journals. Sandra de @4

I am very sorry to hear that you are temporarily out of a job, Marit, and I hope you will manage financially in the meantime, and that the job will be kept open for you when all this crisis is over. It must be a worrying time for you. You sound very positive, though, and your desk looks wonderfully organised and productive! Great journal pages, too. Thank you for your visit. I am so glad you like the herb garden my hubby made for me, and I hope you manage to make one for yourself – there’s nothing like picking fresh herbs for the cooking all through the summer months! While I am not deliberately self-isolating, I am pretty much home-bound anyway so it doesn’t make too much difference to me. The one positive aspect is that my hubby’s many and varied activities out of the house have been more or less cancelled now, so he is around a lot more, which is lovely! It’s a difficult time and I’m not finding it easy making sure we get our weekly grocery order, with everybody panic buying and over-stocking, to the detriment of everybody else, especially the elderly and vulnerable. It’s so sad that people are so selfish and greedy, when we should all be pulling together and supporting each other in a time of crisis, and building up the community spirit.

Keep safe and keep smiling, Marit. Happy WOYWW,

So sorry you are now out of work – is it just whilst this pandemic is on – can you get your job back later?
We are not on any lockdown as yet, schools are duke to close this Friday I think, it is the selfish shoppers that are making life uncomfortable for most.
I see Nijerk is now not taking place, wise decision but how sad – shows here are all cancelled too. Sad and bad times ahead but we have to keep crafting and show folks what we can do to brighten the days up.
Love those two powerful images you have to show us – very appropriate for the time.
Take care stay safe and well – and smiling.
Hugs, Neet 1 xx
