I've had only one face to face conversation with a friend since this began ( she lives 5 mins away and we kept our distance), I'm not working at the moment. The days feel very long and although I have planted some veg and cleared out the pantry, my motivation is very low right now. I have joined our local Mutual Aid group as a volunteer, and delivered some groceries to an elderly couple, which felt good.
I used to do a lot of Zumba classes which don't really work so well online.Im comfort eating and putting on weight. I'm doing Zoom Pilates which are good, and making sure I have a phone conversation most days.
I'm quite up and down, some days I feel grateful for what I have, others, I struggle to just off the couch. I've not seen my partner for 6 weeks and as he's working harder than ever, our phone conversations often feel quite strained. Hardest thing tho, my little sweet cat died last week and that's been really hard to deal with.
I know that this situation is difficult for everyone in their own ways, but just wondered, those of you on your own, how are you coping with this?
