For me it's people.
Other than partner and kids , I have 2 family members, Mum and sister, and we live so far apart we rarely speak or meet up. We have nothing in common.
I have 3 friends I see every month or so.
I'm envious of people that come from big loving families.
I can go for days without speaking to anyone outside of my household. I used to be quite a sociable person. Now I have no confidence.
Loneliness sucks.

A full time masseuse would be my dream right now. I hurt my shoulder and weekly massages are not cutting it. 👍

Hope.
Time with my late DP.
Money.

This too will pass no doubt, but currently stuck in Groundhog Day and am still searching for whichever box I stuck my "resilience" in when I moved 7 months ago. It's there somewhere....

A bestie! I have a few friends but nobody who would drop everything and go for coffee because I needed a shoulder to cry on and me of course for them somebody who we just get each other. Probably describing it wrong.

More time for me to just sit in a dark space with a cup of coffee and get my head together I have started getting up at 5am instead of 6am daily to allow myself that time before work but it's knackering me.

My dad back

Bit more money would never go a miss obvs!
