Lockdown 3; Day 85

 Today is my last day of shielding, I received my official discharge type letter today - but I get the impression that they are reserving to right to push us back in if they need to - after all they have already done that!!

The thought of actually being allowed out is still a scary concept...far too many people are of the opinion that the pandemic is over or that it actually never happened. There is also the train of thought that masks to do need to be worn once you have had one jab. The science has made it very clear that this is not the case and you need both plus a period of time after the second to have maximum protection. Plus even when jabbed you can still carry and pass on the virus. It all make sense to me and I did not science at all after the age of 16! So just how imbecilic do people have to be to put themselves and those (if any) that they love?

Last night I ended up really angry at the news - it was full of self rightous filled snowflakes who are just trying to cause as much trouble as they can in their 15 minutes of fame. From women accusing all private schooled males of being rapists to the women who are using the murder of Sarah Everard to stop people abusing them by silencing them. As a woman who has been abused; I feel their shrill yelling and abuse of a truly horrific event is just as abusive as the so called issues they are going on about. I think I may avoid the news for a while...my stress levels are high enough without more so called 'woke' reporting. Both the BBC and Sky wound both Andy and I up last night.

Mikey is still recovering from his boy flu! But from the sheer amount of noise he has produced today means that he is going back to school tomorrow! It may only be for one day, but he is fit to return and he at least gets to see everyone and make plans for his break if he wants to! At least we know he is perfectly able to take himself to the local park and call us if he has a problem or needs us...usually it is simply that he is tired and wants his car to come and collect him!

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.
