Would you be willing to admit

[Samtsirch]

This is intended to be lighthearted so I apologise if anyone is upset or offended.
I just wondered if anyone would be willing to admit to something which really upsets them about the lockdown situation, whilst also being very aware of how petty and selfish it is in light of the widespread suffering and the seriousness of the whole awful situation ?
For example, I am so thankful for everything I have atm and am doing as much as I can to help neighbours and friends, but I am absolutely gutted that Eastenders/ The Archers won’t be on so often, and also that I am about to run out of my industrial strength cover up foundation, which I used to buy at my local chemist and doesn’t seem to be available online..😟

The season finale of the pub quiz is cancelled. My team were fighting for a top spot.

Gutted that DD’s reception year is likely over. Cried in the car on Sunday about it. Feel ok now as DD seems not bothered and is getting on my nerves a bit 😂

AnyFucker I’d have been better with lockdown in winter too.

My business has folded and won’t restart until this shit is over and my youngest has to be in isolation for the next four months.

But I’m really really upset that can no longer pet my neighbour’s dog through the fence. I always pet him, but I’m concerned that if I pet him and am sick, then the neighbour pets him straight after he might get sick. I’m thinking the same in reverse too. He was barking at me earlier, to pet him when I when down the drive to get the bin. 😭

I had also planned on booking some proper time off for the first time in seven years, then this happened! This was not the time off I had in mind. 😒

The petty thing I'm worried about is not having a proper 30th birthday celebration. Usually we do nothing for birthdays, just get in a nice dinner or something, but dp had planned me a wee surprise party, so I'm pretty gutted about that.

My husband will be around more.. I am unable to stand this for more than a weekend. I don't want him around.. he's been in the garden all afternoon tending to his veggie patch whilst I hold down a WFH homes schooling two kids and a field of sheep! Oh and he bought a new car today wtaf 🤷‍♀️ I won't last a week

Key worker here.

Devastated that Line of Duty has postponed filming.

MOTHER OF GOD.

I have money and plans to spend it on doing up my house.

But I can't.

And I don't have a decent savings account to put it in.

I really miss my parents and my friends, I miss not being able to walk into town with my mum or go to the pub across the road with DH or take my DS anywhere fun! 😞

On a lighter note I'm going to miss my nail appointment!! Grrrrr I also panic about running out of chocolate and wine so I find myself rationing even though we can still go to the shop lol!

Yup, I just said to my mum the other day, this would have been much easier through winter, or the last few weeks when I rained non stop. Now it's dry and sunny and we are stuck inside.

Gutted that we can't take recently widowed mother in law to Rome in August as planned. And Ds1 had a 4 week job in a school for July that he had to interview for, got the job and now it won't happen.
And Ds2 trialled for county district cricket and now that won't happen

It should be 100 days out til our amazing holiday but.. I doubt that’ll be happening 😔

I wont get to see my new grandchild due early summer in the usa, there's a massive chance my son wont be allowed at the birth due to the hospitals not allowing it at the moment in their area.

I was supposed to leaving for a holiday to the New Forest next Friday, which now isn't obviously happening. We'd planned loads of things to do, especially taking the DDs to Peppa Pig world (3 year old DD2 in particular is Peppa Pig obsessed), and would have loved it, and now it's not happening.

My son missing his school residential this week and all his primary 7 end of school fun, more importantly his enhanced high school transition that he needs due to his autism

Oh and my little one will miss her nursery so much and we’ll have to go through the pain of resettling her again.. but that’s not so petty I feel

Feel sad that my Y2 probably won’t go back to her infant school. Sad our August holiday will be cancelled. Last years holiday was also cancelled. Sad that I can’t go to work and am just bored at home. Sad i can’t see friends or family or go to the pub.

All selfish things.

I’m a GP so it’s crazy busy and just plain horrible.

But what actually makes me cry is that DS2 won’t get to perform in his year 6 summer play, which he’s been looking forward to since reception.

After a horrible pregnancy and with only 6 weeks to go I was really excited to finally get the furniture sorted in his room and be able to unpack/ organise everything. Now the guy who was refitting my wardrobe has had to cancel as the wholesalers have closed and it made me cry.
It's literally been on thing after another this pregnancy and all I've wanted to do is be organised and have a little control back and I have none at all. Plus I'm pissed off because of my husband hadn't dragged his feet over it I could have had it done by now.😭 x

I'm gutted we are going to have to cancel our first family holiday to center parcs in May. We have no garden so gutted also to be missing the sunshine after SO MUCH rain, I mean what shit timing! also having to miss our wedding menu tasting and appointment with the florist in a few weeks... and annoyed I cant get my hair and nails done as I look a state. There we go a long trivial list

I'll miss our drives and picnics/pub lunches in our local national park.

No biggie but I'll miss them

I'm gutted that
-I can't get my hair cut. It's so fucking long, I feel like Gandalf.
-We can't book our spa day
-Some really fun activities we'd booked (think Go-Ape) have been cancelled
-Friend's wedding might be cancelled
-I can't see my office friends

But most importantly.....TOWIE filming has been postponed!!!!

I'm gutted I won't get to see my partner until all of this has lifted. We don't live together and so now are unable to be together for the time being

That I passed my driving test 3 weeks ago but now I cant go any where any way

I need my eye brows threaded! Even worse I still need to go into work WITH BIG FURRY CATERPILLARS 🐛
