Absolutely over the freaking moon.
I have put my life on the line every day at work. I have neglected my kids schooling because my job has taken every ounce of my physical and emotional well being. I have pulled myself back from the brink of an abyss and I have seen, with brutal reality what COVID has done to lives, to loved ones and to families.
And now it’s time to get my life, and that of my children back again.
So, so happy.

Totally up for this !! No negativity !! I can't wait for normal life to return and for my 1 year old to see life as it actually is, rather than just life in our living room !

I want to take her to the zoo and to parks and everywhere basically. I want strangers to tell me she's cute and to say hello to her. I can't wait for people to be able to pick her up and play with her. I can't wait for her to be a flower girl at my brother's wedding this summer.

I want to know what it's like to be a mum without covid. I only had a few weeks of it after she was born. But I was extremely anxious already during those few weeks, as the virus was already around.

What great news. Pretty much all restrictions gone by June(can't remember exact date) sun is shining today where I am, went for a walk and I can feel hope in the air.

RedGoldAndGreene · 22/02/2021 17:37

I want my teens to be able to do their practical driving tests and go away for the weekend with their mates if they fancy. Dd is 18 in April and I want her to have a party eventually

Hi everyone would love to join!
Been feeling all teary and emotional since seeing the date 21st June. Some of my family haven't seen my children in over a year. We are planning some summer gatherings!

CheesyChipsOnWembleyWay · 22/02/2021 17:49

Absolutely. Life without hope is not life.

I've got three weekends away booked already for me and the kids. We've been stuck in our town for months, we want to explore.

MrsCaplan · 22/02/2021 17:52

And me please! Looking forward to eating lots of ice creams in gorgeous surroundings. With my rescue dogs. I will share. Bliss.

Me!!! My kids hit a wall a while ago where motivating them to do anything became impossible. It's been a nightmare and all our work has suffered. The news today has been brilliant. We've been dancing in the kitchen, ordering uniform, and generally allowing ourselves to get excited.

StCharlotte · 22/02/2021 17:54

21st June is DH's birthday - we are beyond excited!

Also it will hopefully mean my niece's wedding can go ahead as planned in August.

Not too mention holidays?!

You should jump on Tik Tok. There are a ton of creators there that are all about the positivity!!

Allmyarseandpeggymartin · 22/02/2021 17:55

I am going to party my arse off this summer.

That is all.

AdventureIsWaiting · 22/02/2021 18:01

I'll join! I've been extremely cautious throughout, but I've just made plans to see my parents in their garden in the first week in April (didn't even get to see them on Christmas Day as it was too cold and we couldn't risk going in the house before they were vaccinated). I've not seen them since October I might even risk giving them a hug as they should have both had their second jabs by then. Also made tentative arrangements for a bereaved relative, who I've not seen for over a year (the deceased was CEV so even garden visits were out), to come and visit for the day in April as well.

Two week UK summer holiday booked months ago now looks like it will happen. And I might be able to have a picnic in my garden for my birthday (May). Absolutely thrilled Smile

Who fancies some night clubbing on 21st June? (Ok not me, but glad it will be an option!) Grin

Yiayoula · 22/02/2021 18:03

Same here. And I'm crossing fingers for 2 trips to Greece to see my family!
year5teacher · 22/02/2021 18:05

Only 9 work days left and then I’ll have my class back! I cannot WAIT to see them all chatting together, the girls in my class are such a strong and amazing support system for each other and I CANNOT WAIT for them to be back together again!
My parents should be vaccinated soon. WE CAN MEET OUTDOORS JUST BEFORE MY BIRTHDAY!!! I don’t have to spend two consecutive birthdays in lockdown opening presents away from them!!!!!!!!
I can’t wait to enjoy my job again and the idea of being able to chill in the park with my friends, have a drink together after work.. amazing. Not to mention being able to hug my parents. 🥺🥺🥺🥺
