That's it I'm done

[babasaclover]

Right that's it I'm done. I've been locked in this house since January. First due to health now Coronavirus. I'm done been positive and thankful for having a garden etc - i need to MOOOOOAAAAANNNNN.

Anyone else thoroughly fucked off with it all? Never thought I would miss work and mundane stuff.

I didn't know Michael Rosen (72) was ill. That's awful and he looks fit and thin too but I suppose age and being male makes it worse 7 APRIL "I know people are anxious for news of Michael but I'm afraid I can't update every day. It is a very difficult time. Can I pls ask you now to respect Michael's privacy & allow us as a family to concentrate all our love and energies on him"

Fed up with my adult children bickering with each other. However the toddler is over the moon, the dog is basking in all the attention and dh couldn't give a toss as he's still working.
So me, the tot and the dog are camping outside tonight. Himself can join us if he brings snacks.

I think it's fair enough to have a moan to be honest.

This is one of the shittiest things to happen to humanity in a long while.....

Whilst it may be worse for others, that's no consolation unless you're like posters on another thread I've been on today - who seem to be positively delighting in this disease bumping off those less worthy (ie less healthy) than them.

It's so, so frustrating not being able to get out. Awful.

Group hug needed I think! It’s good to vent your feelings and know your not alone.

Warning don’t go on Gransnet - they have posts on how much they are enjoying lockdown. I lost my rag with them because of All the crap and hardship people are going through as listed here, told them they were smug - (you can’t swear or call people names on there!)

The only way I can cope is just to think of it as one day. Don’t think about tomorrow or the weeks ahead. Just get through the day.

Hugs to all xxx

We live abroad and spend most of our holidays seeing family (whom we are obviously far from). We have lost our late April/May holiday to this and just so depressed by the possibility of losing the summer one too (we were hoping to get to the UK and perhaps still can if we drive...I’m not prepared to lose hope just yet). I’ve also got friends I haven’t seen for months and can’t bear not knowing when I will see them again. Plussss OH and I are trying to juggle WFH with SAHPing a 1yo and both feeling utterly shit at both. Our son misses his crèche. My husband just wants to get a haircut. I miss the gym and cinema. In short everything just feels utterly shit and I am FED UP.

Oh yeah and no garden or even a balcony.

Plus I hate what this is doing to humanity. The prospect of masks makes it all seem even more horror-movieish. If it’s scary for adults then what about kids? We’re also depriving little kids of learning from body language (especially facial expressions) and teaching them to essentially steer clear of their fellow humans. Just wrong.
When we come out of this we will have an international mental health crisis as well as economic crisis.
PLUS the government seems determined to send everyone off a cliff with a no-deal Brexit in the new year regardless. OH JOY.

@Dinosauratemydaffodils what is it with the narrating? Mine does this like I'm surprised she doesn't have a sore throat as it starts from the moment her eyes open and NEVER STOPS

I think the drive for relentless positivity doesn’t help. It’s ok to admit this is shit

@Missingminieggs I'm so glad it's helped. I expected to get no end of shit for this but just don't care anymore. Needed so badly to vent.

@ILoveAnOwl totally. I just want some peace. 5 minutes would be wonderful. I do know I'm lucky, years of infertility, miscarriages and IVF but I never needed some alone time more before now

@DobbyTheHouseElk Amazon have dishwasher tablets, well they do where I live. You cannot live without one it's the world conditions were literally will drive you insane this time were living in. You can also order from Cosco online you don't have to be a member

Yes. I feel thoroughly fed up at the moment but we are luckier then some. Still getting fed up though. Kids are great but husband is really beginning to annoy me because he keeps moaning at all of us and flouncing around like he's the only one who feels frustrated!

cissyandbessy
Dog looks like a sheep 🤣🤣🤣
And cheery people being all jolly can fuck off 👏👏👏

Well I got ordered to bed this afternoon. Haven’t slept well for two nights with headache and gorgeous day up here again . I said to dh, I don’t know what to do..shall we go for our exercise and he said no, you can go to bed and have a nap, so I have but feel like I’ve wasted a day..

I hear you. Going out for walks etc, while they may be nice, it’s not like seeing loved ones, going to pub, having adult company.

I feel for us all, our curtailed freedom, our children missing out on life and extended family, finances, not being able to see sick loved ones , give them a Hug, give them a good send off, have weddings and other family celebrations, holidays, music festivals and all the things that make life nice

I’ve got someone coming to paint a garden wall tomorrow. I’m so excited..it might give me the kick up the arse I need to sort the garden out.

Who’d have thought my life would boil down to this eh?

I’m actually really lucky. Lovely dh making a chicken risotto. Nice house, doesn’t need much to keep it tidy, no little ones needing amusement, no financial worries, somewhere to sit outside, and so forth..

No just dealing with curtailment of freedom which still sucks.

Please, moan away..I will

@babasaclover thanks. They were missing from my Morrison’s and ocado order weeks ago. I did look on amazon but they were silly money, I’ll try again. I’ve been breaking the cheap ones I had in half. But the rest are gel ones so I can’t break those.

It’s all shit isn’t it. Total shit. But hug love for the dishwasher tablets advice

I’m in on the moaning....fridge/freezer packed in last week and now the washing machine has just pissed out water everywhere!!! What the actual fuck!!
My other half is able to work from home (yay!) but apparently this is all he is able to manage at this difficult time. In all fairness the kids are great so can’t complain there but their Dad needs a kick up the arse.

Can I join in? 34 weeks pregnant and the last few months have just been a shit show. Lockdown at the same time as being told I had gestational diabetes so couldn't even ram chocolate down my face. Fed up of having to go for a walk after every meal to get my sugars down. Fed up of having to eat cheese with fucking everything.
In my final year of uni in a healthcare degree,trying to finish off 2 modules as I've resigned myself to having to defer my dissertation as lockdown screwed me so much. My ten year old is off school so I'm trying to do my work in the morning and get him to do independent work whilst I'm doing that.
I'm not sleeping well because I'm up 3 times to pee. I'm also itching like crazy and have had blood tests today for cholestasis.
I can't even go shopping for the final baby bits and enjoy the last few weeks of my final pregnancy. Its bloody shit.

@Layladylay234 I hear you! I'm 34+1!

Hey, it is tough , we are all going through this but it is short term in the grand picture!! Stay safe and sane.

And the prize for spectacularly missing the point of the thread goes to...

Thanks @rachelclaire I feel so much better now,

I'm so over it! Everyday is like groundhog day and I'm sick of walking our local area. My 11 month old knows no different but I miss my parents and getting out the house to meet friends because I am VERY bored of our routine now. We missed out on a new house and a holiday. Feeling fed up and self pitying. Can also feel some of my old depression thinking returning which I need to get a grip of.

Gah, I know it's for the best but god I am booorrreeeedddd.

Today almost feels like a normal day.
I had my nap.woke at 7
Ate supper.
Found a new Netflix to watch as we finished OITNB last night, so watched Schitts Creek
This feels very much like their experience..a whole new world

Almost grateful to have stayed in today. It feels normal in here.
Bad things happen out there. Favourite shops are shut. People wear masks. Avoid the cops.

Did I wander off the set of LOST.
