Dev, it's crap isn't it. Sometimes it's too much and yet we still have to plod on regardless, isolated or not cos we're "mum".

I agree with Indego, although exercise would be further down my list...

Hang in there girl, we're here even if not in person.

Another one to say hang on in there -- not that there's any choice, really, is there?

Can you get outside for even five minutes? Sometimes I find just being outside in the fresh and (hopefully) sunlight can help a little.

(Plus my very bad I am so tired and depressed I don't know what to do dinner of a banana sandwich and a glass of wine in bed.)

any of the above or
Face mask
Body scrub
Cake and Latte!

Is there anything you can plan to do soon for yourself, even if only for a couple of hours, when your DS is at school/nursery (sorry can't remember how old your DS is).

Iv'e had 20 mins peace with a hot chocolate, now back to the grindstone. Gutted I didn't see any of the sun and more importantly the heat due to ds refusing to dress or come out of his room!!
Evie, ds has been out of school a year lol, so no rest 24/7 plus he is 1;1 care, sometimes 2;1. He's 10yo.
Thanks everyone x
