Hi @Firefly123 It does feel like ground hog day! But we have made it this far and are starting to see the lockdown being lifted which is great.
How are you doing?1 -

Thanks, I am doing okay! Please have a look at these links, I found them useful during the lockdown period.

Hello mate I know your new but can you give advice on how you start posting,**** and not it savvy0

Hello @Maxsteel have a look at this.
1. The first way is when you login. Click on new discussion.
2. Say you wanted to post in the coffee lounge, select it from the category list you see.
3. Enter a Discussion title, followed by what you want to say in the box below, and click Post discussion.
The second way is when you are browsing the forum. The New discussion option will now appear on right side of the screen (like below), simply click it and it is the same steps as above.
I hope this helps, if you have any questions let me know.

Hi @Firefly123 All is well with me home schooling has been my biggest challenge in lockdown and this wont be changing anytime soon its hard to motivate a 13 year old to learn in a virtual way .
But on a selfish note it is nice having him at home to help and keep me company.
Now we have a bit more freedom at least I can see my boyfriend with the new 'bubble' rules
Take care and keep safe

My daughter can not work online but I've been more doing practical things like measure out the ingredients. I'm still shielding so noth changed for us and all at home, 24/7. It looks like it will be a long while yet. They are actually a lot less stressed and I think it's going to be hard for them to get back into that routine. Glad you are well x0

@Firefly123
It been a whole year and the previous 5 years were medical appointments. Was making plans back in in September. Had appointments, meetings set up for the new year. Now put back waiting lists and assessment list. Things still on hold for a lot longer.
Just found out, local link and ring a ride manchester are back on. But not taking wheelchairs. I cant use a taxi.
But trying to think positive.
I'm try somthings online not got very far.
Sorted online prescription del. About it.
Figure out Ability.net to get communications tech sorted and apply assistance dog on another. Found some great free courses at the open university online.
Just having to wait for some one to help apply.
Set up computer.
I be happy with that.
I wait for adaptions a wheel chair all assessments.
So yea trying be positive.??1 -
Yes last year was the same for me hospital appointments and physio ect all put on hold until whenever.
That's what we have to do find ways to pass the days.
I've been reading trying to do some of the physio. Taking each day as it comes x1 -
I've been trying to some exercises and diet. Having a none adapted kitchen not helping the diet. ?
Still looking at the kindle tablets so I can download make easier. I miss reading. Especial Patricia Cornewell. But I like text books too. Been long time since I read.
I txt mother twice a day. We not seen each other for a year.
Any change is welcome change.
Just wish gov would stop so confusing. All areas seem to have different rules.2
