Ahhh... I did wonder why there was radio silence yesterday.
So poor grabby was feeling kind of uninspired this week
god my heart bleeds for her
How is lockdown 2.0 easier?! Lockdown didn't magically disappear over the summer months. It was and still is a thing, has been since the 23rd of March. What grabby actually means is that, the pandemic has ruined/fucked up ALL her 12 months in advance plans for 2020. We can only but imagine what she'd actually had instore for Freya's 1st Easter, her birthday, their wedding anniversary, fathers day, Freya's 1st birthday, the summer holidays, Ben-peados birthday, Halloween and bonfire night etc., etc.
'Novelty of only being allowed to go to the park/a walk, for a change of scene each day is wearing off.' Erm, Grabby. You've did this before there was such a thing called lockdown. This is the life you've been living since being groomed at the age of 13, you control freak. Your life is like waking up everyday at 6 a.m. listening to Sonny & Cher singing "I've got you babe" - you are Phil Connors.
EVERYONES lives changed on the 23rd of March.
Yet, nothing changed for Grabby. She's a creature of habit. It's obvious that she's still seeing '5 minutes down the road' mumma K everyday, that's her routine and a pandemic ain't gonna break that cycle. It never even occurred to her, that doing that Easter photo shoot would cause a backlash as she assumed no one would notice that it wasn't her back garden. Grabbys managed to do her daily 'at the crack of dawn' runs {probably with her dad} in. The park{s} she goes to are always the same ones... ditto with the walks in the same fucking local fields. It hasn't stopped her going to London taking pictures of colourfully painted houses/flower markets and her flippers. Visited rather a few non local beaches, made full use of the Eat Out To Help Out Scheme, family BBQ in mumma K's garden with the grandparents as guests, a few Soho House visits and squeezed in 2 holidays to Italy.
I haven't hugged or kissed my mum since about February because she's in her 70s and I don't want to unwittingly pass the virus on to her. We've just restarted doing her shopping for her again due to the new lockdown. I think I've seen my dad once since this all kicked off and I've not seen my sisters and my nephews n' nieces. I've not been to the beach this year, even though I could walk to our local one. We've been to Norwich twice this year, to click and collect some items. BBQ's seem pointless if you can't enjoy them with your family. And we went away locally twice {where you are socially distanced from others} just to recharge both our batteries because myself and my hubby have worked throughout {we are key workers but not for the NHS} and give a bit of a breather for the kids.
We've all been effected be it financially, physically and/or emotionally in some shape or form. My patience is wearing extremely thin with the amount of selfish entitled arseholes that walk amongst us. It REALLLLLLLY pisses me off when people bandy about the 'Mental Health' card like it's some kind of get out of jail card, unless you've actually suffered with it - shut the fcuk up!!!! Having a low day, then suddenly everything is better a couple of days later because you've made some dead hydrangea flower arrangements for the house, which you've photographed for the gram and over a thousand dunderheads have liked. Depression nor mental health issues don't disappear at the drop of a hat.
* Just seen she's updated her Instagram... I will be back lol.
