Not too bad thanks @Firefly123 the unusual now seems like the normal, how are you today? Hopefully the weather will improve at weekend and we can all get back into the garden.
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?
I'm ok just a bit fed up today. Yes I see things are getting back to a new normal. My doctor says I should stay at home as its the safest place. Hope your well x

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
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 x
My life still on hold. Still cant go out except into shared garden. Would love to go away somewhere, for a different . Especially as I have a railway line right next door. Theres not been many trains. But feel it gonna be more now.
@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.
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 x
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.
Yes that's right it just gets rather confusing. My friend drove down to Scotland as her mother died but as she had her kids in the car they sent her back home.. Most of my family live far away but have been keeping in touch with each other through social media ect.
I mean my young adults with autism are sick of seeing each other and after 3 months I'm finding it so exhausting. I normally take them out but I can't so it's not been easy this past week x

Take care and keep safe
I got a letter from my doctor last week telling me I can go out as long as I wear a face covering and keep 2 meters from people... yay!
