“Friday morning, when I went to bring shopping to my cloistered parents at home, I was stopped by a police officer. this is the first time that it happens to me. He wears gloves and no mask. Like me. He looks at the certificate I give him and the identity card from a distance, without touching them. He asks me where I live and where I am going. When I mention my senior parents, he smiles and whispers: good luck, let them stay at home . On the way back, the news falls on my phone. Boris Johnson tested positive for coronavirus. Had he shaken too many hands? He boasted about it. Moments later, it was his Secretary of State for Health, Matt Hancock who announced that he was also infected. We tremble for the Queen as her immediate entourage seems affected.
In the afternoon, telephone interview for a women's magazine. I answer questions about this confinement, about how we live it, about the anxiety felt, the questions. At the end of the interview, the journalist asked me soberly if I would like to answer a beauty question and pointed out to me that with my white hair, at least I would not have any root problems. I smile despite myself.
Much less comical, the words of Ainsley Earhardt, blonde presenter featured on the American news channel, Fox News. Women need to redo their color, we will soon see our roots. I know, people die, but my friends tell me they can't get a manicure anymore. The outcry that followed is not about to die out.
This is my last post, my last meeting here with you. I really enjoyed seeing you every day. Did you know that we can keep in touch, on social networks, and then, I hope, in not too long in real life, and in bookstores! "
