Lockdown Diary - Saturday 16th January 2021
Back from another SAS-style shopping trip, almost under the cover of darkness. It was snowing earlier this morning and the remnants were still on my car when we left for the shops. The snow has turned to rain now though, so no chance of it settling. Son #2 joined me on the shopping trip and I found it especially frustrating having to let him do all the heavy lifting: I hate not being allowed to do things for myself. Mind you by the time the shopping trip was over, I guess I'd been standing for a little over an hour, my abdomen was getting quite painful, and I was glad to sit in the car and drive home. Getting the shopping out of the way early does open up the rest of the day to get stuff done, though mainly chores to start with. I keep having to ask my sons to help with this and that, just to get things done, which means I can't do things at the pace I want to, damn it. I'm not good at being dependent on other people, but I guess I'd better get used to it for the mome...
