just a space for people can say what they have been doing today so we can keep up and in touch

  • I worked. I went part-time at the beginning of the pandemic because I was shielding.  We went WFH, my anxiety was at 11, I don't know whether it was melt-down or panic attack or... Never mind - all of the above?

    I did some data-entry work for the past three months and it was heavenly. I had forgotten the bliss of not having to speak to humans.  I'm back on the phones and, although it's only 4.5 hours a day (believe me, every second is counted), I'm half-dead at the end of my shift.

    The plan was to go for a walk with my Dad, usually a couple of hours and I'm home again but it was raining and he's fitting himself a new loft-hatch.  I helped him with it and watched a video about dogs with him and then I could make my excuses and leave.  I love my Dad to pieces, but I just don't have the energy to do work on the phones and socialise with basically anyone after.

    I've committed to going for a walk with him every week because I care about him and his health but I'm mentally shattered.

    I need to get off the d**n phones.
