@TheGirlWithAPrince That absolutely sucks fucking arse. Instead of being rewarded with a holiday you are being tortured at home. Crack open the wine love

I'm also sick of being told what to do. I know all the reasons why, fully respect, adhere to them and appreciate all that our health service are doing. We've been self isolating for a couple of weeks longer than official lockdown but I had to take dc out for a walk in the buggy to get them to sleep, then had a little internal paddy that this is my outing of the day used up now and I couldn't go for a run.

Really shit times.

I'm fed up with every day being the same. Working while DH is furloughed and trying to share the childcare. I'm fed up that this is Friday night and the weekend is just going to be the same as every other day without the escape of doing work.

babasaclover · 17/04/2020 19:08

@booboo24 There must be something in the air today that everybody is feeling the same. Like it's finally crunch time.

It's like Groundhog Day, isn't it?
I haven't bothered to get dressed today, can't see the point.
I'm bored and fed up.
Could see lots of people coming out of this needing AA and/or WW.

Orangeblossom78 · 17/04/2020 19:10

Yes it is hard to know what day it is at times isn't it, it all blends into one.
have the joy of trying to 'home school' next week as the 'easter holidays' are now over

dollface19 · 17/04/2020 19:11

Fucked off to the MAX kids ex's school work she isn't doing ! WFH with idiots customers!! I'm done too !!

BeijingBikini · 17/04/2020 19:11

I literally have no idea what day it is half the time and have been wearing the same clothes day after day!

doghairismyglitter · 17/04/2020 19:12

Yep I’m in 🙋🏼‍♀️ Single parent to a 2 year old & 3 year old. At start they seemed to like novelty of being with me and each other 24/7 etc. Now they are constantly shouting, arguing, fighting over toys, bickering, not sharing.
Don’t want to go to bed in the evenings as literally dread the next day starting (of exactly the same thing) all over again.
Plus my poor dog is so fed up of going on one walk a day at a snails/two year olds pace and not getting off the lead.

HazelBite · 17/04/2020 19:13

Oddly enough today has been the worst day so far, no particular reason but I just feel really low, and feeling very sorry for myself.
I've lost all motivation to continue with my list of "jobs that need doing" and suddenly I'm missing all my friends and family very badly, and getting anxious about the future, I'm generally a fairly upbeat type of person but not today, hopefully I will wake up in a better frame of mind tomorrow.

SouthsideOwl · 17/04/2020 19:13

Can I join in?

Supposed to be getting married in early July. Churches are shut and venue closed but everything is 'still going ahead' so we cant reschedule anything.

And if I dare say anything optimistic it's immediately shot down with 'are you mad? Of course it will be cancelled. Even if it's not , who will go??' - like, thanks. It's bad enough I've just paid out ££££ on the final installment of a honeymoon we probably won't go on. Fucksake.

Like yes obviously I am aware of what's happened.I'm sad a lot of people have died. Is it worth euthanising ourselves financially for the next 30 years? Probably not, sorry.

We need to do what we're doing and for the next 3 weeks I will sit tight and cross my fingers but that doesn't change the fact that everything is monumentally shit right now and the only exciting thing that happened to me was I found a bag of toffee popcorn in the cupboard (which I probably shouldn't eat because of my wedding diet..oh wait. )

gracielooloo · 17/04/2020 19:13

Can I join?

I too am sick of bloody FaceTime with my Dad and mother in law, we can only see the ceiling, oh that’s it now, oh no we’re back to the ceiling. EVERY
SINGLE
BLOODY TIME!

DP’s away with work and I’ve got a deadline for some uni work, I’ve done it but it’s proper shit because I never get 5 minutes peace to do anything.

The meals, I’m sick of constantly cooking or preparing sodding food, and the constant demands for snacks.

Oh and stop talking to me ALL THE TIME, I don’t bloody care about Tik Tok or Sodding Fizz Fam. DD1 that would be you!

I could go on forever but that feels better!😀

Sosadandempty · 17/04/2020 19:13

Definitely WW in my case. We’ll all come out or lockdown (some time in 2024 by the looks of it) with terrible hair and very fat.

Thank you for this thread OP.

longcoffee · 17/04/2020 19:14

I'm sick of being with the same two people who won't leave me the fuck alone. Piss off into another room!

And I'm getting fat. Which I can't blame them for, but I'm going to. Bastards.

MarieIVanArkleStinks · 17/04/2020 19:15

Nothing wrong with a bloody good whinge from time to time. That's healthy!-as long as you resist the temptation to wallow in it.

I have good days but also have some very low points indeed. Today was one of them. On the plus side, my workplace was unbelievably toxic with a horrible culture of micromanagement - so much so that we were out on strike for weeks before the CV19 crisis escalated. Being away from all that has done wonders for my mental health. BUT ...

It's SO tough trying to accommodate my working life, DH's working life, and DS's home education. Much as I love my village and some of the lovely walks it offers, I'm sick of being confined to it and walking in circles round it. I want to walk on the shore and hear the waves and feel the sand under my feet. I have cruel withdrawal symptoms from my swimming - plus lovely weekly sauna and steambath - and I sorely miss my riding. I'm bored sick to the back teeth of the exercise bike. I do my own nails/eyebrows and haven't yet succumbed to botox - I've even resorted to de-scaling my own teeth - but my roots are sheer hell and I want a colour refresh. I want to see my friends and my lovely brother. I would give my eye-teeth for a hazelnut latte. I want to go out for tapas.

Waaaaaaaaaaaah!

Me too. I thought it was because of my unrequited love problem and feeling so lonely, but maybe hitting what might be the halfway point is hard.

DBML · 17/04/2020 19:15

@SouthsideOwl

I’m so sorry for you. That’s really shit 💐

DBML · 17/04/2020 19:16

@Sosadandempty

The rain today hasn’t helped Sad

LifeBeginsNow · 17/04/2020 19:20

I'm feeling the same. I've been in my own personal lockdown since about May last year when I went off from work on sick leave. After my operation, it took months and I just started to get out and about again to have a relapse and enforced bed rest at the end of November.

I'm very used to being at home but less used to being around family all of the time. We are getting on but I'm just not comfortable with the noise. Plus I feel guilty for not doing things/resting.

It's a temporary blip and I just need to adjust my mindset. Obviously other people have it a lot worse but it's good to let the moan out on occasion!

SouthsideOwl · 17/04/2020 19:22

@DBML thanks. I just want to know if it's being postponed or not, we can't even order invitations. I feel terrible for all the vendors we're using as well. Hopefully everyone can pull through.

@Soontobe60

If you are one of the lovely team who has supplied laundry bags to me and my coworkers, then thank you x 1000000. If you're supplying bags to another NHS Trust, then massive thanks regardless. Flowers

TryingToBeBold · 17/04/2020 19:28

It was my last month of maternity leave
Instead of group and cinema and picnics..

user1486131602 · 17/04/2020 19:29
