Isolation

I am currently on my 4th day of isolation with my husband and 4 children, and all ready things got heated with my 18yr old this morning. And my boys 8 and 7 are very bored, and we are not well to boot, so trying to entertain everyone. And I am in so much pain I can barely walk so my husband is having to take me to the toilet. And it hurts to breathe , so I would like to wish everyone all the best at this time, and hope that you all are ok and coping well with this bad situation

I think a few heated conversations might become part of family life for the next couple of months with restrictions and everyone feeling like they are cooped up together its natural things like this are bound to occur. I think we all need to be aware of respecting our individual space more so than ever at the moment to try and keep our stress levels down a bit. I hope you are feeling better soon. Your household sounds really busy at the moment. xx

Me too....I live alone and I am having argument with myself and bored. It’s like a ghost town around me

Best thing is to lie down in bed and do nothing

Best wishes 🦋🦋💐🍁🌾

Hi Sorry about your situation at the moment it must be quite stressful for all. I recently read online about children writing letters to older persons homes who can’t have any visitors and some I expect no family or sending pictures they’d drawn and I just wondered maybe your 7&8 year olds might like to do that. I’m sure it would be a worthwhile experience for all as doing good deeds often make you feel useful and happier. However that said I don’t know about any transfer re the letters so that would need checking with whom written to. Just an idea 💡 my kids are grown up with their own and I’m sure they would like to do something like this. Hope you all feel a lot better soon especially you. Regards 🤗🤗🤗x
