Hi @Erica & @Nichola75
Well i cant believe it has been so long…
Yes it has taken me a while but despite all my ailments i decided it was time to just shrug it all off and be happy… ive added a couple more ailments so im now working towards my own pharmacy… 
I must admit i do get reaally tired for no reason but then i do anyway so ive no idea if thats down to the post covid thing or not… im not going to temo fate and mention anything shingles i know how aweful they are to have ive heard stories so i dont envy you on that one… ive no idea where this year is disappearing to if the truth be told and ill agree with not knowing the day of the week… i never know what day it is…
Im not going to say im getting to old.to see the new year in just too tired if only i could sort myself out enough to see it properly… i know i did but would of been much better if i could of been with mum.
Well im mot seeing.much.of savings my.boys are getting it atm you never stop helping you kids out do you.however i am making sure i treat myself to something each month and at the moment ive been treating myself to bits of make up… ive been getting some nicer bits and what ive been doing is forcing myself to get dressed every day and doing my make up… it certainly helps with the mental health side of things…
Any way i hope everyone is keeping as well as they can be… and not getting into too much trouble… i will try to make an effort to get on more regular…
Happy… tuesday everyone

Hi @Ells great to hear from you, yes, where is the year going.
I am no sooner saying ‘Happy Monday’ and it is ‘Happy Friday’, then it is ‘Happy Weekend’
You seem to be struggling post Covid wise. Although as you say getting dressed and putting make up on does make me feel better too, perhaps in my case it is my ever handy, all to ready default ‘smiley mask’
I got that non Covid nasty bug at Christmas and I have not felt right since, my fatigue has really set in and I feel 1 degree under, everything is hard work.
Yep, you will never have any money with children, however old they are!!!
Be ever so kind to yourself @Ells.

Hi @Erica and @Ells. It’s amazing how so many people feel yucky after covid. It’s seems like you are both finding it hard to shake. Getting up on this horrible weather in itself is a challenge at the moment.
@Ells, It sounds like you have struck a really good balance in all areas and I’m so so glad that treating yourself is always in your plans. I know @Erica loves her coffee and cake and I love a good coffee treat to.
Let’s hope that sun starts shining soon.
Really good to hear from you @Ells.
I hope the boys are doing well!
Lots of love Nichola X

Hi @Nichola75
Yes im not a morning person i was well known for it when i worked … and now im even worse what with meds and illnesses om fighting a battle for sure… the sun does help but i cant sit in it… i read on my meds im not allowed to do that anymore so i have to hide myself under things so no more tanning not that i really did that but im certainly.more careful since i realised i need to keep myself covered up…
Yes mum encourages me to treat myself to things to keep me off the cigerettes… im still doing well so its working i find im thinking about it less and less but when i do its always the same i think i should be buying them and i wouldnt say no if i was offered one i wouldnt necessarily smoke it i just cant say no just yet.
I love my coffee it used to be lattes if you asked me but now i have to stick to black coffee as i cant drink milk anymore cake sounds good to me or a morrisons white chocolate and raspberry cookie now they dont stay in the house long once i know daves been and bought some… hes so sweet he leaves them by the kettle for me he knows ill be there to make a drink shortly i really should just have a coffee drip especially with how tired i am most of the time …
Thank you nicola its good to hear from you too… ive sorted my phone out and got the notifications back great reminder this morning 
My boys are doing good the bigger ones are working hard as always i never see them im seeing one sunday not the eldest but i will speak to him… daves littlun is doing good too we got him his sleeping in his own bed id say 98% of the time now which is a massive improvement on not at all so we’re very happy at not having to sleep separately at the weekends anymore… our bed sadly is not big enough for 3 anymore and with lottle dude get older physically i dont thinl its appropriate o should remain in there when he joins us so i get him back off to sleep and get relegated to the spare room 
…
Well tomorrow im venturing out of the house for the first time in 2 weeks… im going to get my hair done thats unless my tummy decides its going to totally play up and i have to cancel again this week…
I hope everyone is doing well happy Wednesday xx
