AnonyMouse_8282 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Well I'm getting 50 thousand video calls every day .......... I'm seeing more of the little one than in a normal week! I think my daughter find in the lock in more difficult than me. I've leant today my Facebook skills need upgrading- after asking parents to post pictures of their 'makes' today I find my security doesn't allow this 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_19762 Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 Have been trying to get through to Sainsburys helpline - need to register as 'vulnerable' and hopefully secure an online slot (vulnerable in that Mr S is high risk so we are both self-isolating) I shopped online with them for years - all a bit frustrating..... On a brighter note - my daughter in law and I ordered a huge fruit and veg box from a local supplier and split the contents according to need and taste I am delighted with this - I cook for my lovely elderly mother in law so will have some lovely veg to add to tomorrows shepherds pie Hope everyone is okay x 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just went on Tesco site to see if I could get a slot for next week or week after - but I could only get one this Friday ! They must release a few more each day? There was nothing for the next two weeks, just this Friday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_19762 Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 Yay! I am 'sorted' thanks to my brilliant sister! Frustrated with trying to get through on Sainsburys helpline, she found out the name of our local store manager and took a punt that his email address would be forename.surname@sainsbury.co etc etc - she's a smart cookie and also like a dog with a bone! Suffice it to say I now have a delivery booked for Friday - whoop! whoop! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_19762 Posted March 27, 2020 Author Share Posted March 27, 2020 It's Friday - can't believe that this time last week we were still at work and feeling so sad to be closing up - that feels like so much longer ago to me...…. I wonder when we will re-open - September I suppose - how sad for our leavers if that is the case Hope the weekend is kind to all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_8282 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Even Monday seems a lifetime ago If possible we are hoping to have a celebration picnic in the park for our leavers at the end of August/ beg September. Originally I thought we would be back by the May half term at the latest, but one week down the line I'm not so sure now 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_30128 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Im thinking we may get a half term in between june10th and july finish. (so about 6 weeks) i hope so and then back to normal for september?? or is that being too hopeful? otherwise i did wonder if the government might try to get us to stay open for some of the holidays to catch up as it were.? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since my last 'weather watch' post we have had hail and then a real 'swirling-whirling snowstorm' and now we have beautiful blue skies - oh well it all breaks up the monotony of this self-isolating business (note to self: when this is all over, never take freedom of choice for granted ever again) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_19762 Posted March 30, 2020 Author Share Posted March 30, 2020 Hi all Thought I would share news of my day so far - it's riveting stuff TV firmly switched off - watched breakfast news and that's enough - will tune in for the daily update - but really far better I think to stop watching rolling news Ironing done Finished my book - I have been reading the Stillhouse series by Rachel Caine - have read first two and downloaded the third - really good but I think that I have had enough of blood, guts and gore for now so I'm looking for something much lighter - recommendations appreciated Bathroom, downstairs loo and kitchen cleaned Have been out for a walk - can only walk in the little field behind our house as Mr S is 'social shielding' being in the highest risk category - would love to venture out into the village but it doesn't feel worth it really - anyway a few laps of the field, some sun to build up my vitamin d feels good Have sorted out some domestic paperwork Log burner prepped for lighting later Washing out - perfect drying day here There I told you it was riveting! Think that I might start to write an account of this time, might be interesting to look back on at some point What have you all been up to? Keep safe and well all x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_8282 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I'm having my worst day so far Not actually achieved much other than getting out of bed and getting dressed. I have refused to have anything virus related on TV, so Netflix in background. I not really in a depressed anxious way, more of a just can't be bothered. I've not actually left the house since Friday. Maybe I should go for a walk, but not sure where, we have a few walks around here- but I always feel I need a dog. Yesterday was a good day in the end. I got lot's of 'bits' done. My mind's playing tricks- and I keep thinking what it we wake up Wednesday morning (April Fool's Day) and someone say's thing was all one big joke.

AnonyMouse_12805 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Well louby- I'm not sure if I would mind that too much- Not if it meant we could all go back to normal! Just finished making a little photo album for my grandaughter- will have to post it to her though. She's taking a photo a day of something she sees when out on her daily walk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
