Lockdown 3;Day 20

 This is really getting to me now, it is dragging and January feels as it it is never going to end. 

This morning Mikey has a Zoom lesson at 9am and to say he is not happy is an understatement! He went upstairs to collect some notes 20 minutes ago and has only just come back down (without his notes) and is dragging his feet a la Zombie mode! 

One thing I have found is that I'm getting far too many old memories back. I must be recreating links in my brain again...why now is beyond me! But it is making me feel rather uncomfortable as they pop into my head at the strangest times.

A major disadvantage of not sleeping is that I have too much extra time for thinking...last night I came up with a list of things I wanted to write about...now; I can't recall a single one. 

Andy has just been talking to me about a time I got a quote for motor insurance - but I have absolutely no recollection of it...so it is not just old memories that have vanished!

It is decidedly odd trying to write while Mikey and his class are having a catch up! If anything odd turns up blame them!! There are so many voices that need to break! We have just heard about a dog snotting over everyone!! Mikey is now shrieking at school!! But I love this teacher - she has told him to look after me!!

If I'm honest I an feeling decidedly lonely at the moment, even though I'm in a very small house with Mikey and Andy. Mikey doesn't want to talk to me and Andy is working on ignoring me as much as he can... The cats are busy being cats and only want affection on their terms and when they want. I really wish I could get Andy over his fear of dogs so I could at least have a companion to talk to.

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.
