Maddyone and biscuitmuncher, I’m like both of you, I hate everything about lockdowns and Covid. Living alone, life is very boring, lonely, dreary and a bit scary as well. I did not really feel the benefit of that brief time over the summer as living in Greater Manchester, we soon went into strict restrictions and none of my social life really restarted.
I can’t wait for my WI to be able to meet, with over 80 members, it might be a while before we can hold an indoor meeting, my NWR discussion group has to wait for 15 people to be allowed in a house and my Meet-up dining groups depend on restaurants accepting bookings of lots of people all from different households. I’ll have to make the most of small groups of six sat outside I guess.
I can’t see my mum in her care home, I haven’t seen my son for almost 15 months as he lives too far away to pop round for a socially distanced visit and goodness knows when I’ll be going to the US again to see my grandchildren.
My biggest fear is that by the time we get to June 21st and freedom, infections will be rising again and changes will be made to the road map!
Oh dear, I sound really depressed, I’m not really, just in need of some company, despite several Zoom sessions each week, it’s not the same as going to a cafe to meet friends or having my son come and visit for a weekend.
