Lockdown, Day 101

Today started well as I slept last night!!! I think the cooler weather has helped and I slept until it got light (annoying as the curtains do have blackout fabric in them) Then I continued to doze until I heard a Van reversing...Unlike last week when the driver phoned to ask if he could deliver early, this one didn't! As I was only half dressed there was no way I was going downstairs so Andy had to deal with the delivery. I will probably pay for this today as he is now decidedly grumpy!

I have also been wound up by a constant ticking in my right ear. I learnt yesterday not to even mention anything like this to my Mum as I will just be told to tell myself I can't hear it. I'm also still in pain from my left shoulder...I am totally fed up with the way my own body continuously lets me down. I would love a day with no pain and some energy; but it really feels that will never happen again. I'm close to giving up completely as carrying on just appears to be full of pain and 'helpful' comments which just make me feel worse.

I'm still really not in an eating mood, yesterday I managed to forget to eat lunch so just had dinner! My Fitness Pal is going to get angry again!! But when I'm this 'not bothered' about food; eating is pointless as I just feel sick and usually end up throwing up...and in my mind that is just wasting time, food and effort! Plus Andy and Mikey are really good at eating their way through most food in the fridge, so I can be sure it will rarely get wasted!

The one thing I am looking forward to at the moment is the release of Hamilton on Disney + this weekend! I an going to have my trail week so I can finally see it! Especially as it is not reopening in London until next year and I'm sure all of this year was sold out to those tickets will be transferred forward....seeing it live is not going to be possible for a very long time, so the New York version is as good as it is going to get for now!!
 Really looking forward to seeing this at the weekend when it is released, an early birthday celebration for me!!!

Lockdown, Day 73

Image
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.
