You have to think positive e.g. Spring and warmer weather will come and it won't feel half as bad when we can spend more time outside - I came to adore weeding the garden in the first lockdown! Now nothing gives me more pleasure than spending the entire morning cooking to make best use of things that have been in the freezer/cupboards for probably too long.

Not often I think of What The Funicular, tonight is one DTC, No I live in a house ( no attic) :0)
the problem is it's so samey
What exactly is he doing to cheer you up?
High-five on the fedupness coming from here. Bobbi. I felt like that a few days ago. Mr J2 said to me that he feels inadequate trying to cheer me up. I wasn't particularly 'down' but it has been a hard week in various ways. He had a pre-op cataract assessment appt. at Hull Eye Hospital and I didn't know where it was (never been to Hull). When we got there (courtesy of instructions from a friend, but it was stressful) they wouldn't let me in to use the loo. This after an hour's journey and then a 2 hour wait in the car for him to be let out. I ended up having to open front and rear car doors in the car park to protect decency and I had to wee there. Just a bit dispiriting.

Plus side - I feel much better today. I now know where I have to take him for his op. in Feb and on the way back I spotted a Tesco store where they will have a loo.

To such are we reduced for cheerfulness.

It has to get better or there will be a national suicide epidemic. Once the vulnerable are protected it is insanity not to lift lockdown.

I am fed-up of cooking all the time. St. Delia recommended braised celery with pork loin (which I've bought for Sun.) so I bought celery ---- I don't even like celery, just anything, anything for a change.

Does this help? xx

Haha, yes it does hep Jourdain , he's telling me how lucky we are and there's many more worse off, he's right damn him, he's right :0/
christ i am fed up of making sure the 3 of us are fed 3 times a day. I'm thinking of getting a sunday dinner takeout from the pub
We are all in the same boat Bobbi. I know you're always trying to be cheerful...but sometimes it's good to vent. The same 4 walls are making us all suffer from cabin fever.
I'm looking for some creative things to do because telly is just the same old, same old. Though Its a Sin on C4 tonight was better than I expected.

Question Author
He says " Stop watching the News":haha as if that'll change the situation
Sometimes I like repetition...waking up and knowing what I'll be doing and when. But this is bordering on being locked in, doing the same over...and over...and over...
...and I just want to pull the damn covers over my head...

But we have decided on a Staycation tonight
Cornwall watch out ( when we can )


Hope this works
You have your health, a roof over your head and your husband, you should be grateful for small mercies
