I've not had any government texts at all apart from the generic CV one back in March. Still not heard anything from any supermarkets about slots either. Have re-registered again on the government site.
Looking at this thread and the rest of MN it seems this week (even if it's only Tuesday!) is a hard one for lots of us. I think the change in the weather is definitely not going to help. Waking to a gloomy bedroom is different to waking in the sunshine
Gloomy is a good word. I feel very gloomy, also peevish (I don't get to use that word enough!) Also melancholy (like my username which is quite a niche reference
)
@AuntieSocia1 I am definitely eating more than normal out of boredom and an awful shallow sense of "who is going to see me anyway"
I would love to exercise more but am limited due to disability. DH is a fitness fanatic and says he will help me do some leg stretches and new exercises I can do everyday. So I'm not much good for recommendations but I have also heard Adrianne yoga recommended and online Pilates. Also ?Joe Wicks?
I wonder if building in a set time/routine to exercise could help? Does anyone else think that? I think if I "timetable" my days it helps a bit. They just seem so long and difficult to fill (and I homeschool as much as I can, bake, cook, read lots, embroider, speak to friends/family, have a bath or sit outside if I can, but still there are more hours than activities!)
I also realise I am possibly lucky as people with smaller DC and/or working would probably think I should stop moaning about boredom
terribly, I myself have to try not to think you don't know how lucky you are when I read people moaning about another three weeks
as I know it makes me a not very nice person to think this way!
I just read (on another thread and can't remember which/who to thank) someone said "we aren't all in the same boat, we are in the same storm but different boats" which I really liked.
