Here is my entry.

Taken this morning, the 7th of April 2020, at around 11:33 British Summer Time (UTC+1), with a Jolla.

I consider it uplifting at a number of levels:
  1. The obvious uplifting force of the helium in the balloon;
  2. The fact that there is still enough helium in there to float at all, after nearly two months;
  3. The fact that #2 allowed us to reuse the Valentine's Day balloon for a very related day today - our wedding anniversary :);
  4. The golden letters hung from the ceiling spelling out another uplifting message (sorry it is mirrored - that is because it is hung to read correctly from the other side, but then it would be against the window and the picture was spoiled);
  5. And lastly, that even the extremely messy room with all the kids' toys and school bags tossed in the middle did not manage to spoil our mood :D

Gotta take joy in the little things . . .

Our anniversary was last Tuesday. We had carry-out pizza with carry-out carrot cake. My wife wrote "Be my Quarantine" on the card . . . No helium balloons, though . . .

Don't you have blue skies on Lower Rhine? We've had nothing but blue skies since we've been locked inside :p

"Tässä teille sinistä taivasta!!!" <- Reetta, vai mikä sen nimi oli?

"Here is blue xxxx for You..." <- Said some Reetta from Finnish cartoon...
