Re: not feeling good

Oh @BlueBay  Happy Birthday!  I hope you get to enjoy some of your special day, although things sound so difficult for you atm.

 

I'm ver anxious about these tighter restrictions & can't stop thinking about them and worrying what Dan is going to announce today with 'business' restrictions.

 

I hope your hand specialist appointment goes well for you.

 

Thinking if you 🎉🥂

Re: not feeling good

Hi @BlueBay 

 

First  - it's your birthday  - and it's starting out shitty  - I had a crappy birthday a month ago  - darn  

 

So these restrictions  - what can you do about it? Nothing much but acceptable the situation and really it could be worse  - you can still exercise for an hour  - try and concentrate on that hour and get out of the house  - and I know  - it feels as if your civil liberties have been taken away and it's unpleasant 

 

But this virus is a killer and it's cleverl - personally I would rather be locked down than have the virus 

 

Try and make the best you can of the situation  -- it will  pass and make the time work for you and I know you are scared but I don't know why  - I'm not happy about it either 

 

So- my only suggestion is to make your birthday treat for yourself - don't wait for someone else too do so - they might and that will be a surprise 

 

All the best

Re: not feeling good

thank you everyone for the lovely birthday wishes @Owlunar @WIP @Faith-and-Hope @Maggie 

i will go for a walk this afternoon.

i know that i will be okay during this lockdown. yes it is hard and i know we can't do anything.  the good thing is that hubby and myself and my kids all have our jobs and will be ok.  we all work in the 'essential sector' so that's good.

i will come back on later on. xxxx

Re: not feeling good

You are very fortunate to have essential jobs @BlueBay , so that will definitely help the lockdown time go faster.

Enjoy your walk & birthday 😊

Re: not feeling good

Good to know @BlueBay

Re: not feeling good

I've just come back from seeing the hand therapist. I have osteoarthritis in both wrists and need to wear wrist braces. It's really hard to wear one on each wrist. I don't feel hsppy but it will help with the pain. I also have exercises to do. 

Do you know my mum hasn't rung me for my birthday. she used to ring early morning but today  nothing. 
makes me feel unimportant and not special.

Re: not feeling good

@BlueBay
Happy birthday my friend.
Thinking of you 🙂

Re: not feeling good

@BlueBay 

You are special and important - especially to your Mum. Maybe she thought she'd wait till after your Dr's appt to call you and you'll hear from her this afternoon?

 

I can imagine it'll be challenging to wear a brace on both wrists, but hopefully it won't take you too long to get used to it and the reduction in pain will kick in soon too.

 

Enjoy the rest of your day
