Isle of Man

When the news of lockdown began gathering momentum here on the Isle of Man & the news we would all have to stay home indefinitely became a reality I called Joao Paulo my ex. We had separated 10 years previously but had remained friends and I asked him to move in with me and Poppy ( 3 year old parson jack Russell/bundle of joy). He agreed and we quickly found a new normal, me working from home, daily dog walks, baking and cooking (we all rallied round and cooked for our elders neighbours). Somewhere along the way we fell in love again although it was only 10 weeks on when talk of lockdown beginning to lift here on the Island we both realised that we didn't want things to go back as we had both fallen back in love with each other. It was unexpected and something amazing all in one. We are planning to get married again next year and have never been apart since. If we hadn't had lockdown we may have taken years to realise what we have. Love in a time of Cholera ....sorry Covid!
