Sure am missing the grandkids, FaceTime just isn’t the same as a real hug. We used to babysit one a couple of days a week and loved it, also regularly picked up another one from primary school.
They are struggling to understand this and it’s pissing me off that people don’t get the message. To kill this we need a total isolation and it should have started weeks ago.
The way it’s going we’ll be isolated for six months. We now have groceries delivered and in the process of getting prescriptions delivered as well. Just need to setup Telehealth if possible, anything else we need the kids will drop off. My superannuation is also taking a severe hammering and at my age that’s an issue.
On a positive note, I’m getting all those little jobs done around the house. Just hope the arse doesn’t fall out of the realestate market.
