Re: not coping

That must make it hard @outlander

Are there any groups around so you can meet some people? I know where I live most of them are aimed at older people, but there are a few that younger ones can attend also.

I know it's not the same but you have us here always to have a chat with you.

Re: not coping

I don’t think so @Snowie I don’t really want to join any more groups at this stage. I’ve tried a few in the past and they didn’t work out well for me.

Re: not coping

No not really @Snowie I was doing volunteering but it only took an hour today so finished early. Will probably just continue cleaning the house

What about you @Snowie

Re: not coping

Maybe between the cleaning you can do something for yourself @outlander

Hubby is sick so just looking after him. Have also been doing some paperwork for where I volunteer at. S is working soon so will take him to work and need to go to the chemist for hubby.

I think that might be my day!

Re: not coping

Too cold here to go for a walk @outlander Curled up in my oodie!

I've got a bag of donations in my car, but it's only one bag. Sounds like your car was full. I'm sure they are happy with all the donations you are giving them.

Hoping his ok too. He is an easy patient to look after anyway. Doesn't complain at all!

Re: not coping

That certainly is a lot of donations @outlander

Have you got a lot still to do with the house?
