So been getting along ok with the lockdown , but the rest of the year so far since Jan has been a bit off ..

Cue violin music

We as a family had the worst year start so far we can remember:

The whole family have gone through a awful chest/throat infections ( all mostly sorted by Normal antibiotics) . all before anything covid was announced..

in addition I had an awful digestive bug that put me in Hospital, then arrived home and I got the Throat bug that moved to my chest , so had anitbiotics x 2 and a steroid session.

Added to this i got an badly infected ingrowing toe nail , was awful and could barely walk , but some podiatry work and more antibiotics

had these 3 times.x 7 days . seems to have settled d0wn a bit now. although all future worl currently on hold.

But Wife and i still have a bit of a cough ( so a bit taboo at the mo', and tends to clear any areas with each Bark ..

) .

Dealing with this Isolating, with wifes Asthma and my T2 Diabetes

, not too bad down in our quiet village.

Had our April family hols to USA dashed and spending my time sorting out all the refunds 000's etc.. flight refunds still outstanding, and may well lose the villa costs if we can't go again in October

Recently lost all the upstairs lights, not fuses etc , so looks like a while in the dark

not that it matters dring the spring/summer .

And no car shows to go to

.

And now it gets worse .

This week my 90 year old dad has had to go into a care home with all the risks, even thought they are clear of Covid at the moment, this because my Stepmum has been struggling to look after him since his stroke and now with this lockdown and no outside help , is unable to care for him properly any more.

She herself has had a triple bypass a few years back and a new hip which gives her some grief and now shes just had a terminal kidney diagnosis, so maybe a year ?

,

Now spending my time trying to sort out social funding for the care home as his monies won't last 6 months privately. and trying to help out whilst meeting the "rules" ..
