I hate to say this but I am BORED!!!!

Thank you NanKate, wonderful!

I work in the mornings, but my lunchtime job has stopped for now, so I get home at about 12. I've done every bit of washing I can find, including washing some things which didn't need it (curtains and cushion covers). I've ironed, cleaned, sorted out crap stuff we don't need. I've read, cooked, baked, done crosswords, done online shopping for more crap things on Amazon, I've chatted to friends and grandchildren online, and yet the hours are dragging by.

I dont get bored ,ever.I'm quite enjoying having time to do things at a different pace.Not thrilled about contracts being cancelled and income lost but as the First Minister said this morning we can fix the economy we cant bring people back to life.
We've been self isolating since the 8th of the month and managed to get loads done in and outside the house. The GC msg me and phone me and my son has been sending videos of the baby learning new things .As long as we all keep in touch and keep safe thats all that counts for now.I'd like us all to be around for a long time to come .

I don't get bored either - not these days.

My mother used to say 'Only boring people get bored!'

We soon stopped saying it anyway, as we were given things to do if we did (polishing silver or shoes, digging out weeds or cleaning etc.).

I think you are very polite- I'm sure I saw it on another thread with the offending word left in!

DH roared with laughter but then I think he was wondering just what Jolene is like ......

PiKachu Thank you so much - that was really funny.

I suppose I should be clearing out cupboards, cleaning windows, etc etc. I started off that way - doing extra jobs around the house and garden - and doing some art, reading , catching up with recorded TV programmes, ringing my friends, etc, etc. But the initial impetus seems to have worn off. I think in the back of my mind I'm aware that this is probably going to go on for quite a while and that there's no rush to get everything done at once. Don't want to sink into apathy though.

I miss seeing my grandchildren and my friends, and getting out of the house to go to choir and art class. My husband isn't much company.

I've enjoyed the jokes on Gransnet though - they have really cheered me up.

I should be clearing cupboards but nothing is going anywhere as the charity shops are shut.
