How are you today?

[Bluewavescrashing]

Just that, really.

I'm OK, really, but feel in limbo. Miss going to work and hope I will have a job to go back to.

A bit aimless. I've showered, had a walk with DD, made a nice lunch and put a wash on. Started sorting clothes for a charity pick up bag we got through the door but suddenly lost motivation.

At lunchtime the 4 of us sat round the table and there wasn't much to talk about. Everyone's a bit meh. Luckily we are all well.

How about you?

The eczema on my hands is driving me mad

I am doing some work from home (a bit half heartedly, to be fair, but everything important is getting done slowly) so DH just lets the children play on tablets all day. This also drives me mad.

I did a workout on my lunch break and I am still in sweaty workout clothes. I'm going to have a hot shower in a second.

There's not much to talk about but DH and I did watch a programme with John Torode learning about South Korea through its food, which was surprisingly interesting.

Missing my DS so much. He is in a care home and haven't seen him since mid March, normally see him twice a week. Neighbours pissing me off with having family and friends over. Terrified about being forced back into work too early (teacher). DH feeling the same.

I am not having the best day and am being snappy with the kids and eating way too much crap. Dreading logging back on to work tomorrow, I love my job but am losing motivation what with having to share 'shifts' with DH for kids/work.

My dodgy hip has been playing up and I had convinced myself that they would announce that we could see some close family next week which obviously isn't going to happen now so I feel very deflated.

Need to pick myself up really there is no point in having a pity party.

I'm ok. I have been a bit ill with a uti and upset tummy so I slept a lot of yesterday. Also just bored and fed up. I need to make a plan and a list for the week I think so I have that structure. Thinking of learning one new savoury recipe and sweet recipe each week / fortnight. Also diy job each week. Dc are learning to read and we are not really getting much further with the youngest so I feel unproductive.

Totally and utterly pissed off and very down today.
I can’t face going into work tomorrow, I can’t face what the next week will bring.
I’m tired, weary with it all.
I’ve put way too many hours in and now it’s catching up with me with my mental and physical health.

Normally a well, upbeat and happy kinda gal. It’s all getting overwhelming.

No rainbows here I’m afraid. Not today.

Feeling a bit disinterested in everything today. And vaguely nervous about this evenings broadcast. Looking forward to my roast beef and contemplating opening the wine too early (again).
I had a massive sense of humour failure last Wednesday though, so better than then.

I'm a bit meh, I know I have a lot to be thankful for but every day is the same as the last. Plus the neighbours had a 40th birthday party yesterday and it went on to the wee small hours so I'm really tired.

I also miss going to work! I'm also really anxious about my job. I love the job and the company, and I already was working remotely as there are no premises.

I had a bad nights sleep and it's that time of the month, so we're all just having a family day in bed. Currently suffering through paw patrol lol.

This morning, I did a couple of hours of study (studying marketing) but I completely lack the energy to do anything else.

There's talk of ordering in a curry tonight 😄

@monkeytennis97 I'm also a teacher and I know how you feel.

I can't get motivated to do much. Just the basics. I did sit down with DD yesterday and we painted with watercolours which was nice but she isn't in the mood to be creative today. Neither am I tbh.

Numb
Not happy not sad
Just numb
No motivation
Hate the wind..but might go for a beach drive today and watch the sea
...luckily I’m not going to chuck myself in it

Not great but better than I have been some days.

No more day time drinking here and more coffee to cut calories. I’ve eaten and drank too much for weeks and now it’s time to take action. Dieting during lockdown is absolutely miserable!

I'm in agony from a torn ligament in my pelvis. Was also diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my left hip last week which is being aggravated by the way I'm walking & sitting with my pelvis.

Worried to bits about my mum who's really unwell with a whole catalogue of smoking related illnesses and who's legs have started to ulcerate.

Can't face work tomorrow but I'm going to have to as I'm apparently 'business critical' in my role. We're busy, I'm drowning in work.

Doing ye olde usual 'put on a happy face' for DH & DS.

Hmm, I was drinking quite a bit but don't really fancy it now. I feel better without it.

Absolutely, putting on a happy face is exhausting. I'm worried and sad and frustrated and bored and impatient. So glad DH has taken the kids out for a run around.

Struggling a bit. Been trying to take things a day at a time but today - I don’t know if it’s the impeding announcement, boredom, the weather - all I can see is unrelenting crap for ages.

Can’t be bothered with work tomorrow.

I’m 27 weeks pregnant and have been in lockdown since 18 weeks. I just so want to see my family and friends. I feel guilty for feeling this but seeing as it’s going to impact on all my much longer-for pregnancy and maternity leave (took us a year to get pregnant) I feel kind of cheated of this time.

Sigh. I just want life back to normal.
