Back into Isolation I Go…
Back into my little bubble. My own doodle. Due to Covid still being a valid problem in the UK and me having rather poor health in general, Heart Disease and Chronic Kidney Disease for a start, I have been anxious about going out, OK so Covid probably isn’t killing nearly as much as it was but with my health issues I think I have to be extra careful
And then this morning I got an email from the NHS stating “Our records show that you’re eligible to receive a further COVID-19 vaccination this autumn. Your protection from previous doses may now be reduced and will continue to decline. A further dose should reduce your risk of becoming severely ill from COVID-19 this winter” and “You can get vaccinated if your last dose was at least 3 months (91 days) ago. If you have a weakened immune system due to a health condition or medical treatment”. Well I’m very nearly 66 years old and in poor health and it’s definitely been more than 3 months, so I believe I need to take this quite seriously !!
Of course this has just increased my anxiety about going out and contact with others even further, so for now I will not be leaving the house except for emergencies or medical appointments and only my sons (they are my bubble) or the district nurses (if they need to change my Catheter) will be allowed into my house.
I am essentially going back into self isolation

Two become One
So for a very short time I was managing two blog’s but I’ve decided I don’t want two, I only want to manage one blog, so I have copied the relevant posts over from "Pop’s Alternative Computing". Now it’s all going to be here on "Pop’s Pic’s Creative Repository" (mind you I may have to tweak the blogs title a little to reflect this change). So as well as being a repository for all my creative stuff it will also contain my more techie Linux and Chromebook type posts, as well as whatever else takes my fancy 😁
There is also a secondary reason for this merging of my blogs, I have a presence on the Fediverse, I have been building this presence on my Linux laptop, a kind of free space universe along with the opensource operating system and software within the Linux environment. I have Pixelfed for photography, Mastodon Art for art, PeerTube for videos, Fosstodon for techie open source stuff and of course Mastodon itself leading the way as my social media platform. And now with the help of the ActivityPub plugin by Matthias Pfefferle for this WordPress site this blog now cross posts to Mastodon. Meanwhile my other site "Pop’s Alternative Computing" is not a premium site and therefore I cant install plugins on it meaning that this site was the obvious choice. I will keep the other site alive though, as a backup site just in case.
So that’s why in the words of five very wise women "Two become One" 😁
