@Appleblossom @BlueBay . Yes I'm improving every day. And the health people will organise appointments after the new year. Just before Christmas is not the best time to need specialists.

I'm good thanks @Shaz51 . Fire on our hill has been put out after a week's worth of firefighters doing their thing. No more heavy smoke.
How are things up your way? Bet you are getting beautiful rain. Am jealous.

Good morning @Shaz51 .
I'm well. Coping with this isolation.
Not really doing anything. Just the same old.
How are you? And Mr Shaz?

Hi @utopia
I'm coping with the isolation with more of the same old same old too - adding in lots of news on TV and a huge jigsaw. I will post a picture when I get a decent photo of it - it's so large I have to hold my camera up high and the shots I took were indifferent
How are you really in Central Victoria? - being in the city has to be different - being in the country might mean the coronavirus could be less of a problem but then you don't have the same services and the infrastructure
I miss just walking up to the shops for a chat - I can still walk there now and again but the people with their dogs having a coffee and always ready to enjoy talking about their pets - not happening - it's amazing how these little things have changed so much.
And it also seems that the people in the shops and other public places - working - are in a hurry to serve and want us to go away and I don't blame them.
I think it touches everyone where it hurts somewhere - and it seems to be going on-on-on
But we are still here - we have done a good job in Australia and we can pat ourselves on the back -
All the best Utopia
Dec

Re: HOME
Okay. So the WorkCover saga continues.
WorkCover have confirmed that my injury is work related. But now they have sent 287 pages, yep 287, trying to refute that it was caused by my employer. They are claiming I was always under intense stress being a single mother, moving to the country, struggling to pay bills, plus my allergies /sensitivities.
Wow.
Last night I was so shaken up and distraught that they were trying to stop having to pay me a settlement.
Today, I spoke to my lawyer and refuted most of what they sent me and said. Especially what my ex manager wrote. I was furious. It's full of bullshit lies. Stating I never told her I was stressed. Which is wrong.
Because we are now at the stage that WorkCover needs to come up with a dollar figure to pay me for my injuries, they are trying to say I got sick, depression and anxiety, because I was already living with high stress. Bullshit. My stress levels were the same as any other person's.
Anyway. Today my lawyer is happy that we can refute most of what WorkCover claims.
He says WorkCover must come up with a dollar value offer by June. YAY. And then we counter offer with our wanted dollar value.
So hopefully all will be rectified before the end of the year.
