Good on you for going to a supermarket... I have not been in one since March! Also, going just into the garden is OK - it gets you some air and sunlight and then you can build it up to short walks.

We will find out at lunchtime what Drakeford has in store for us from next week and then at least we can plan. Hugs back to you, we can do this!
Our area, Torfaen, is such a small area there are so few areas to just walk and the few there are tend to be very busy now as so many need to use them. I agree that if we could travel further we could walk without there being so many others around, and feel more relaxed than we do now.

I guess we will soon find out what’s in store for us. 💞

Good news from the lunchtime announcement as far as I am concerned - from Monday we can both travel to quieter places for a walk!

Yes it’s generally good news, it also means we can see our son again as he also lives in Wales. I’m still feeling down that I can’t see DD but I’ve chatted to her and we both feel she’s got more to gain by staying where she is, and it’s the right thing to do to keep to the rules so it’s just something we have to deal with.

I do hope we have some dry weather to go for a few nice walks in the fresh air though as that’s definitely going to be good for our mental health

One day at a time, that's what I find helps...

If the weather is fit, get out for some fresh air and be kind to yourselves, we're all allowed to struggle in these difficult times but do know that it will not last forever and we just have to remind ourselves that better days are on the way even if we do have to wait a while...

Be patient and kind with yourselves.

Thank you Ali, I’m trying to do just that. I enjoy card making which relaxes me and enjoy cooking (and eating which isn’t too good for the weight) and try to use my time keeping busy. The weather is supposed to improve later this week and the fact that we can travel a little more in Wales from next week again will help too.

It’s hard times for all of us, and some days are harder than others but there has to be those better days ahead 💞 Love and hugs to you and your family too 🤗 💕

I find getting out in the open air really helps and seeing the sunshine.

Its often the most simple things in life that have the most profound effect upon you

Stay safe everyone

I agree, a good walk outside definitely blows the cobwebs away. The wind's been so strong here today it's totally cleared my head, I came in looking like a scarecrow 😂

I am gutted, it was a receptionist job, something I've always wanted, oh well.
I’ve applied for so many jobs up to now and that was the only interview I had. I’m desperately searching for ways to make money online at the moment, but I’m taking the day off to drown my sorrows in something strong. I know there’s people going through worse and I need to pull myself out of this, but with no job, no holidays, no days out because we are tier 3, no meals out because I’m not working, everything just feels pointless and bleak.
That’s such a shame - maybe take the positive though - you must have done a good application to get as far as interview this time - look back at what you put in the application and re-use where you can for future similar roles. Good luck with your search and hope you feel better soon
