Good morning all, it's a beautiful morning hear in Glasgow, but only 2 degrees, quite deceptive.
The sunshine does lift your spirits. ?
Scentia, I know how you feel. We are used to seeing our granddaughter at least three times a week and missing her dreadfully.
We were getting a glimpse of her once a week, when DIL brought down essentials, albeit she was strapped in her car seat. It was such a boost for us.
However, DIL's parents, who are neighbours of ours, have been having family members and the other granddchildren in the house for hours and are defying the lockdown regulations, refusing to social distance. It is so galling, but I need to keep quite, as I don't want to cause any friction.
My son, rightly so, has said that they can no longer come down with shopping, as DIL's parents ignore requests not to hug DGD, who is a chronic asthmatic.
Myself and my neighbours are absolutely livid ? at them, as we are all trying so hard to do the right thing, by not seeing our grandchildren or children.
Even the recent visit from the police, hasn't made them change their ways.
My DD has been in Morrisons since 7am, bless her. She was getting a few essentials and my phone hasn't stopped ringing, as she see things she thinks I may need, but needs to check first.
I cannot get the hang of my mobile and every time she phones to check, I cut her off. . She then phones the house phone, as I'm trying to ring back on my mobile, so I'm juggling two phones at the same time! She is an absolute star. ? I have turned into an old biddy!
Great news about your pension, Urmstongran. I too am a WASPI. I am 65 next week and DD was going on about not opening my presents until I get my state pension. I said that that was a long time to wait.
She thought I would be getting it next week. ? If only!!!
I think a pottering about day is in order, rest is the key, since my angina has been really troublesome. The last place any of us wants to be at the moment is in hospital??⚕️!
We seem to be a virus hotspot here, I know of a number of people who are very ill with it.
Best wishes to all and especially hoping that Gilly makes some progress today.
A special shout out for Auntieflo, who hasn't been about recently.
PS: Grandmafrench, do you think this post is too long?
