How are you managing? I've always had tea and cake with my mum 2 or 3 times a week, and the whole family spends most Sundays together in alternating houses. I know there is a lot of hardship right now and I'm being a bit selfish, but I'm starting to feel really down. At the beginning I naively thought that after a few weeks we would be able to resume a normal social life, but now it seems like even Christmas will probably be spent bloody social distancing in our own houses. I've got a 3 month old daughter, the first baby in the family for 25 years. And none of my relatives can enjoy her. She will probably be walking and talking before my family get to know her or can have a cuddle, and it breaks my heart. I don't want shops and pubs, I want my family back. Sorry for the self indulgent post, I just needed to vent really.
