Hi @MumNeedsHelp and welcome .... 👋

I am in online classes today so can't stick around right now .... then have to support all three of my dependent ones this afternoon. Hope y'all have an okay day.

Hello @MumNeedsHelp , @Faith-and-Hope , @Anastasia , @Mumslove , @MumO

How is everyone this afternoon xx

Hi @Shaz51 ,
Not too bad today. I've just had a covid test -pretty sure it's just a shocking cold, but doing the right thing. Had 2 pretty good days with my daughter. We are in lockdown but she is able to work, which is great for her. I just get anxious every time she leaves the house. But I'm trying to relax and give her the benefit of the doubt instead of trying to predict the future.
How about yourself?

hello @MumNeedsHelp

are are you and your daughter tonight xxx

my D1 has a cold but she had to have a covid test today to see

i am a bit tired tonight with caring for my eldrly mum

my husband has bipolar 2 and other problems

my S2 texted me today with some photos asking if there were herbs or weeds -- ( i said they are weeds )

@Faith-and-Hope, @Anastasia

@Shaz51 My daughter is in high spirits so it's been a good night, thank you for asking. You sound like you have a full plate. I hope you manage to get a good nights sleep xx
That's cute about your son. I remember once I asked my son to pick me some thyme from the herb garden and he bought me back some weeds haha.

Silly question; does D1 mean daughter, first born and S2, son 2nd born? 🙂

Yes @MumNeedsHelp ❤

Makes it easier as I have 3 sons and one daughter

So D1, S1, S2, , S3, my step children

Yes D1 has to postpone her wedding due to covid19

All my children have some degree of mental illness like their dad but trying to cope their way

Hope you have a good day

Seeing kidney specialist and about my hearing aid today after morning work

@Shaz51 good luck with your appointments. So sad about your daughter's wedding. I was meant to travel interstate this month for a friend's wedding but she's had to put it off till next year.

It's a lovely sunny day here today, I was going to do some gardening but the wind is bitterly cold.

My daughter is at work..... the last 2 days have been good I just hope she doesn't get any silly ideas and break the lockdown rules. Always living on the edge.

Anyway, I wish you a good day and hope you find some time for yourself x
