Lockdown, Day 66

Another night on the sofa...my neck is agony now and any movement is agony...I need to find a way of obtaining a socially distanced massage!!!

Andy has just gone into work to do whatever he does to the tapes! I'm not going to pretend I know what he does, but it is obviously essential and if anyone messes up his server room he gets even more grumpy! I just wish it wasn't in Maidstone Hospital but he says it is still quiet over there so hopefully nobody totally moronic can get anywhere near him. Having got this far I'm now being selfish and really do not want to even risk catching it...

To be honest I've been feeling guilty recently - so far nobody I care about has been taken by Covid 19 and now it is starting to reduce I'm really hoping that state continues, but it is hard to believe that nobody I love has been affected...

Today is my first full day on 16:8. I fast for 16 hours out of every 24 and am only allowed to eat during the other 8 hours. Andy is possibly not going to like this as I am not allowed to eat after 8.30 every night...But then again eating late is not meant to be that good for us!!!

For some reason Blogger is getting stroppy about adding photos...if I try I end up sitting gazing at a spinning circle for ages they has never completed And anyone who knows me also knows I am not well known for my patience...

Lockdown, Day 73

The whole world appears to be going mad - and not over Covid 19 for once, but over the death of a man called George Floyd. Any death is one death to many, but the Americans do seem to be reacting and using this death as an excuse. The riots in various US cities are causing Millions of Dollars in damage (physical and mental) whilst the mobs, which seem to have a high number of white member scream for the blood of a policeman who probably felt he was working within the orders he has been given. Personally I feel they should be yelling at the Orange Idiot they elected 4 years ago. I vaguely remember his administration having a few black faces at the start, but recently it is decidedly WASP and black faces are totally out of sight. He has also threatened to send the army in to deal with the rioters...I am unable to remember any other US President using the military to quash a public uprising in the past. Is it wrong for me to hope that the people of the United States may remember all of th

How Do I keep Going?

 This week I have totally reached the end of my very frayed tether. I am more exhausted than I have felt for months and I am also feeling isolated, un-needed and unwanted. |Mikey is settled at school, is doing well and making new friends and finding new interests. All I do it listen while he frantically searched for reasons for him feeling f=depressed. When he does come up with something you can guarantee that there is nothing I can do to cure or solve whatever he is worrying about. He also has new people he can talk to so I am certainly no longer needed. I've also had my latest lot of blood tests done. I can't remember my access thing for my results so I can't look at them. My memory is failing even more than usual and I hate this. I'm also in constant pain and I can't do anything that is part of my usual way of living. I really just want all this to end. I have no energy, I can't sleep and even cooking something simple leaves me feeling dead on my feet. All I

When will all this end?

The UK appears to be in total meltdown abd I have had enough. Petrol is now been panic bought - at least it makes a change from toilet roll.  Mikey's school start was delayed until 10am this morning as Hythe Road was at a standstill = he missed PE but was playing benchball instead - but the advantage was he didn't have to get changed! By the end of today Stagecoach were not even trying to get near school - thankfully Andy got close and picked him up = the thought of Mikey finding the station and getting on the right bus is terrifying! He could have ended up anywhere!! While the general population are acting line brain dead zombies I am trying not to move too much as the infamous calcified blood clot (which doesn't cause any pain...) is absolutely killing me. I am seriously considering having a hot water bottle tonight in an attempt to ease the pain. I chickened out of my afternoon in the woods as I wasn't sure my back would hold out. I'm really not good with pain.
