11 April 2020 : Covid-19 Warzone

So it is officially a warzone at home, eldest not talking to me, 14 year old got such an attitude. I had just spent 45 mins putting most of the shopping away, delivery guy brings it, leaves it outside, I give it a wipe down, to remove the virus, everyone is doing it!! I was knackered, so I decided to take a 5 minute breather, all the cold stuff was now in the fridge. Hubby just got back from walking the dogs as I went into the garden, are you not going to put the shopping away....well I am all the cold stuff is in the fridge, I am just having a breather. .....apparently I had left the bread sitting in the sun and now it was sweating!! Are you freaking kidding me, I have just spent 45 minutes wiping down the majority of it and he was complaining about a freaking loaf of bread. Well it all kicked off. I just couldn't believe it. Are they ever gonna give me a break, I think I have become the family punchbag....take your mood out on mumma, everything wrong with the world is mumma's fault.

So I spent the rest of the day social distancing within my own home, I cannot take another argument, I cannot take another person giving me a hard time. They blame it on me because I ask them to wash their hands, take off their shoes when they been outside, cough into a tissue, Am I being unreasonable or am I trying to keep them safe. I choose to wash the shopping, I don't ask anyone else to do it but I am not doing it in the right order and I am not doing it quick enough...... They all sat in the back garden so I went out front, painted the fence and did some weeding.....it was bliss, not a moan or grumble, nothing. I was in my own little world.

Worked my ass off this afternoon just to keep active and keep away from the rest of the family. I think if one more person had a pop at me I would have walked, as far as I could during lockdown and social distancing.

I didn't watch any news I just know the numbers were bad. Don't they get it....don't they see what I am trying to do........if no-one was going outside I wouldn't need to keep on washing door handles or sneeze into a tissue (shoudn't you do that anyway), but my eldest goes for walks and my hubby walks the dogs, I don't moan at that just ask them to take off their shoes and wash their hands when they get inside.....

Had dinner on my own in the garden, again it was bliss, not a sound, not a cross word. Had a shower and went to bed....writing my blog, gonna watch an episode of Grey's and live in my own little world for as long as they will allow. The tensions are rising...............
