Lockdown 2020 and on

As usual, last night I was extremely tired. Andy was watching some thing on his phone but I'm sure I dozed of during it! The only problem I had was once I dozed, I kept dozing. Even though I go lots of lovely naps, I kept waking up and then dozing off again. What I would give for a decent deep sleep...I may still need someone to just tap me on the head every night to encourage passing out!! And I do mean tap - I have enough headaches on a 'normal' day as it is!  This afternoon Mikey is off for an Afternoon with Crossroads who run a group for Young Carers. As usual he is in a t shirt and shorts and the poor lady running it is worried he will be cold! I must have looked like such a cruel mother trying to assure her that he will be fine! Even during to intermittant snow over the last couple of days he has worn exactly what he is wearing today...I can only assume his genetic boiler is working well which means I am actually an envious Mum! I'm far more used to shivering and

 Today is the next step in bringing the UK out of lockdown...all none essential shops. hairdressers, barbers, pubs and restaurants can open. But the last 2 can only have customers sat outside... Plus today is cold and it has snowed! Hopefully the so called 'normal' people will not go totally crazy and move into pub gardens! Gyms, pools and other leisure parks (i.e. zoos) have also reopened today - but again it really is not the weather to take a picnic to a zoo!! I celebrated this return to normality by visiting Sainsbury's! I know how to celebrate don't you think! Essentials such as tissues and strong paracetamol were needed as a matter of urgency so I went and got them myself for the first time in a year! I managed to go and come back before Mikey dragged himself out of his pit! He is currently out in his usual shorts and t-shirt at a park meeting up with friends from school. Unfortunately Andy and I had forgetten that his watch is set to do not disturb during school

I have no clue what time Andy came up to bed last night - I had been threatening to smother him the night before after all snoring! I did get lots of dozes last night, but deep, relaxing restful sleep was definitely missing and I have had the usual waking up feeling as tired as when I went to bed last night. I have completely had enough now...I managed to rustle up spaghetti bolognese last night but I nearly collapsed while I did it. The dizzy spells are getting worse and worse and my blood pressure is still coming up as at least hypertension stage 1 requiring medication everytime I take it - but when I call my GP and eventually speak to a Dr I am just told that they don't want to mess around with my current medication. I still can't get hold of my nephrologist and I feel that I am just an annoyance to everyone. But I really cannot carry on feeling like this - I could just sleep all day; but that us not fair on Andy and Mikey. I would love to just get out with Mikey next week a
