Feeling ridiculously over sensitive and emotional this evening...
Found out today that numbers of children returning to nursery next week at my setting are so low, I am still furloughed for the foreseeable. As much as I didn't really want to go back yet as I'm not convinced it's safe, I need some routine and normality back as I am starting to go a bit stir-crazy. I'm also worried that unless we return to pre-pandemic numbers, redundancies will occur.
Boris' speech earlier pissed me off. Kinda my own fault, as my daughter was watching it with us. It's her birthday in a week, and she now thinks his speech gives her the go-ahead to go to the inlaws for a BBQ to celebrate, as we'll be out in their garden and there'll only be 5 of us. Baring in mind we were originally supposed to be on holiday that week, I haven't yet had the heart to say that it might not happen. Now in a quandary about that.
And also heard that my husband's aunty has been rushed into hospital following a seizure. She's got cancer and has been having chemo throughout this whole pandemic. Ridiculously worried as we're close to both her and his uncle, and their hospital is in a covid hotspot.
Fucks sake. I'd pour a large wine, but I think that'll tip me over the edge. One of those bloody evenings.
