Broke my wrist Pam on my first venture out in the big bad world! Had to have surgery to wire it back together. Just what I need after being stuck at home for so long X
It’s funny how we’ve all somewhat adjusted to ‘covid-life’ and then something pops up, like a cancellation of something we’ve been planning for, to remind us how odd and upsetting these times are! I hope the day doesn’t turn out to be as difficult as you’re expecting it to be Pam 💚
Party aside, wedding days are such a special opportunity to celebrate two people you love, how wonderful that your close family gets to do it twice! No doubt you’ll make lots of special memories on their mini wedding day. I hope you enjoy every minute of your reunion and that the happy hero couple get a well deserved rest!
Hi Pam, what a time you will have seeing your daughters, hope you have a great time.
Know how you feel about coming out of lockdown bit worrying, but we can’t lock ourselves away for ever, mind you it has felt like forever already, especially with my own daughter now in lockdown for own her safety before her operation on the 28th July for her cancer Parosteal Osteosarcoma in her thigh, so where I thought that I could go and help out I cannot as they have got to do it as a whole family with nobody else allowed to come into contact with her and then another two weeks after she comes home, all really strict not sure how they can do this with really young children.
Sorry to hear their wedding had to be cancelled such a disappointment for you all. But you will have a wonderful time with your girls you all deserve it..😃🌲🌳🌾☀️🍷🍾🥂Have fun
Hi Pam always good to hear from you, , albeit I'm sorry that the planned nuptials have been postponed, let's hope things are much better by the time they tie the knot and im sure your family will make up for lost time.
It's quite scary in a way venturing out and about for first few times post lockdown. You may have read my post about my experience. I just needed to get out for my sanity and though Im careful by wearing my mask, shopping at quiet times and distancing best I can, I still feel a tad vulnerable and know it's likely more of a risk for me than most of the other folk.
To balance that it feels good to be able to do our own shopping and it's helping me deal with my loss of freedom in other areas of my life.
Enjoy your party in Penrith with your Princesses !
Hi Pam. I fully sympathise as my son’s wedding was also cancelled and the day it should have been was strange. My future daughter in law discovered she was pregnant a few weeks before the intended wedding so she now says it cannot go ahead until she can get back into the dress!
I am also making plans to see my grandchildren in August some time which is scary but the Covid rate in the South West is low although that could change with the influx of tourists
The Lake District is beautiful and I wish you all a great time with your reunion xx
I ventured out yesterday to pick up a prescription from the chemist a five minute walk away. My first trip outside since March. I was shocked how busy it was in the main Street. Lots of traffic and people. No one was wearing a mask or social distancing. Groups of middle Eastern men in large groups gathering around a car accident. They are either ignorant or don't care. I follow the daily rate of confirmed case in my borough and it is going up. An increase of over 100 in a couple of weeks. I'm on no rush to go out again. We might be in for a local lockdown.
I’m so happy that you are able to see your daughters again. I’m in the US and I only saw my daughter once on Mother’s Day back in May. It was pouring rain and at the time our building wasn’t allowing visitors. We had to sit in her car, no hugs, with masks, and FaceTime with my son in New York. I live in Florida where COVID-19 has been seeing about 10,000 new cases per day. I haven’t seen my son in 7 months.
I did get to see my sister and her family for Father’s Day last month, but again, no hugs and social distancing.
Very strange times we are living in. Have fun with your daughters, Hopefully, a vaccine will come through soon.
Enjoy your time with your daughters. We haven't seen our youngest son and family since October. They live nearly 300 miles away from us and we should have gone down to see them just as lockdown started. We're hoping to go next month sometime if we can get a dog sitter, we'd got a dog friendly cottage booked (got a full refund) but now they're all booked up and very expensive as it is school holidays. So we'll stay with them, our dogs are elderly and our son has a large boisterous dog so we don't want to take them to his house. Thank goodness for technology at least we can see and talk regularly via facetime. We saw our eldest son last week, he was doing a charity bike ride that came through our area so we met up with him then. Not seen our 16 year old grandson in the flesh since March. I've very cautiously been out a few times, just to local shops, I never thought I'd approach a post office counter wearing a mask! I have no intention of visiting large supermarkets or busy indoor areas. I used to go swimming but I don't want to go there either. A friend went to a large shopping mall for her eyes testing and ended coming home as it was so busy and no-one wearing masks or distancing. Stay safe. X.
