Lockdown 4 - let’s get around each other

Lockdown 4 - let’s get around each other

Hey everyone, we are in LOCKDOWN again! And I hate it. I'm really over it like everyone else.
But, we can't control it, we can't tell the government that we don't like it and they'll stop the lockdown so let's do the best we can.
Why don't we use this thread to support each other.

So I'll start us off with three things I could do before the end of the day to fill in time. They can big or small. You can also do absolutely nothing which is fine too.

- Take our kids for 1 hour of exercise as a family

- Go for a run to fill up the rest of the allocated exercise time (and get my personal time in)

- Build Fort with biggest small human child (already done haha)

What can you do today?

How are you feeling about lockdown?

@Ybother do you feel a bit better about pulling out of your course?

Sorry, I'm not across your situation & if the stress is too much atm, best thing is to pause the course and start up again when feeling more comfortable about it

@WIP

I'm just so hurt.

I'm the most honest person I know yet I'm never listened to by my family

Yes, you are too good to be bullying at school & too good not to be listened to by your Family.

Im so sorry you feel this way. I'm sure your family care, but sometimes come across as not listening @Ybother

@ Ehy do I keep having to have my nose rubbed into the fact I was abused, I'm the one that ended up with a life of trauma, flashbacks, ptsd and emotional instability.

We are here to listed and support you as best we can.

@WIP I have a good feeling about the lockdown lifting on Thurs...let's hope I'm correct! I should have asked one lady at work yesterday - she's usally correct in her predictions. Hope you're managing OK 💛

@Ybother pretty hard to support others when you are ill and suffering. I hope things improve for you very soon.

@Ybother - sorry, hadn't read your back ground story and I'm so sorry to learn that you were raped and your family isn't as supportive as you need them to be.

@NatureLover Im doing better today, there seems to be some hope for lockdown when predicted to.

I hope you are doing ok!
