Coved-19 spain

[Nameisthegame]

Anyone else in Spain and finding the jump in numbers from yesterday to today shocking? www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/world/coronavirus-maps.html 700 to 1070 in one day.

I read a thing the other day saying parents who share custody are allowed to continue doing so.

Nameisthegame Sure. DH made up the pastry recipe using oil. We don't want to run out of butter. He's the pastry maker in this house so sure it'll be fine.

I have friends stuck out in Spain, what a nightmare 😳

@UYScuti do you know where? If you have any updates from them please share 😊 and welcome

@BirdandSparrown I’m not sure either unless you send a link.... I guess shared custody only works if near?

Pie was nice.

This yoga was good with kids dd liked the unicorn pose

@PotsOfPebbles looks great 👍 talented family 😊 would love some with some ice cream!

How is everyone feeling mentally? I've been ok until today but am feeling pretty flat. Not motivated to do anything and the thought of being stuck in my house for weeks is really daunting. I'm sure I'll be ok again later on, but today I'm definitely having a wobble. I suffered from really bad depression around 15 years ago on and over over a period of 5 years. I've been fine since and I'm sure I won't get to that place again, but the loss of personal freedom and the thought of not getting it back for quite a while is definitely affecting my mood quite a bit.

@expatinspain I suffer from depression and anexiety which has been slowly getting better these last two years especially since moving away from my ex, today tbh is the first day I’ve felt better and I think it’s because I did some exercise! I popped on some YouTube videos and even though I could only manage 30 min lol 😂 I feel much better for it!

Definitely worth trying to do some exercise wether it’s yoga,dancing or something more intense it’s a real mood lifter.

This one is good as it’s not someone who is super fit leading the exercise.

I know I should do some exercise, but I just really really can' be arsed. I don't really do any anyway. The only thing I do, which I love, is go for walks in the countryside around us. Kind of buggered with that now.
I don't do that for exercise though, I just like being out in the fresh air and the quiet. Been sitting on the patio instead and doing a bit of mindfulness.
I miss going for a walk though.

I was feeling super depressed when I got up too. I think I had an anxiety attack. I also can be bothered to do the bare minimum.

I feel full of malaise. I actually don't feel well. Side eye at DD who had a raging temp of 40 2 weeks ago and is now coughing. I feel so tired.

Hope we all feel better soon. We're only 6 days in!

Positive post, hopefully mak some of you laugh my dd insisted on having her photo taken with Fred and his enormous parts.

He usually lives hidden in the plants

i can see why he hides!

Haha 😂 yeah not sure how my mum ended up with two lol ones a miniature.

I feel better this evening. Weirdly I prefer the evenings to the days. Sitting about watching TV or chilling out in the evenings is normal and you don’t feel like you should be out doing something. Next week we’re going to get onto a proper routine. Get up exercise (some Joe Wicks HIIT on YouTube) , then when DD gets up she’s going to do the Joe Wicks PE session daily. I’ve also signed her up to Mr Khan’s Academy as her school aren’t giving them much work or online classes. I’m going to improve my Spanish and I fancy doing an Excel course if I can find a decent one online. We’ve also just had some books delivered from Amazon. I got DD one of the Steve Jackson/Ian Livingstone choose your own adventure books which I loved when I was her age. I can’t wait to revisit that!!

Tomorrow I’m going to clean the house. I’m actually quite looking forward to that! Something to do 😂 Usually a job I hate!!

Hope we all feel better soon. I think we have to let ourselves feel down and realise we can’t be positive all the time in this situation. Taking the days in bite sized chunks, having a plan and allowing ourselves to have down days from time to time is the way forward I think.

Hola bona nit a tots.

We are in the south of Tarragona province, up a mountain in the middle of nowhere. Lucky enough to be early retired, we live with 4 cats and a dog. Our nearest residential neighbours are 2 Kms away and the nearest village (population around 800) 6kms away. To shop we have to go to the nearest town - 26 Kms. We're missing meeting friends for lunch or coffee but are doing ok.

@Sandwichgirl Hi welcome! Please send us photos of the country I’m sure it would lift our spirits!

@expatinspain it’s okay to not be completely okay, atleast were all doing our best to help x
