Lockdown, Day 108

It may still be lockdown, but I have aged another year...Next year is a big one, but I'm just counting down to the end of Lockdown and no further!!

Andy has hopefully helped solve the snoring issue, he has bought me a sleep mask with built in blue tooth wireless headphones, that way I can listen to whatever I want and it won't disturb his snoring!! I just wish I liked audio books as it would speed up my reading no end!! I also have a few new books to get through, although mine are not looking the most cheerful, one is even titled Lockdown and is about a pandemic!! But I am not sure we have got to the stage the book is set in!!! I am also looking forward to later as I have a bottle of bubbles chilling nicely in the fridge, and only me to drink it! Maybe the reading can wait until tomorrow!

It is now after 2pm and Mikey is still upstairs getting dressed; although from the noise I doubt much dressing is going on! Maybe the X Box is in need of a holiday and a break as well as me...it would be nice to have a conversation not centred around the last game he played... Well I can dream I suppose!

My other treat today is a very bad for me cake that my husband has made and decorated for me! Thankfully Mikey has not had a hand in the decorations so we will not have 100s and 1000s all over the house! His style is best described as crazy...suits him really!! I think that mixed with the vast majority of the bottle in the fridge should ensure a good nights sleep as I embark on my last year of my 40s!

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.
