Sunnyday and Cait, I really feel for you and Zebedee and Mr S. I will be hoping and hoping that you don’t have to use them. The change in isolation doesn’t make much sense to me either, even though it is to my advantage in this case. Other than Christmas Day I won’t really be taking advantage of it. I have had things very mildly - in general I have felt worse for the last 6 weeks when I’ve had a cold and then my asthma was playing up (repeated negative LFTs). Plus I can see how things come and go - I felt great yesterday, this afternoon I am about to crash and fall asleep again.
-
I have 2 negative tests - I get to spend Christmas Day with the niblings!
-
I’d completely missed all those bags - they were gorgeous! well, I have managed to stay awake all day for the first time in ages and have started a winter window display and made a Christmas gnome (which wasn’t actually on the crafty TDL but I couldn’t resist!)
-
Oh Sunnyday, that did make me smile. I like my circular needles for socks but I’ve not really knitted anything else!
-
You read the news too?! I have just done an LFT. I’m ok - a little tight chested but that’s ‘normal for me at this time of year’. I never did have a temperature.
-
Seriously, I reckon you could have got away with that for a lot longer! 😉
-
Oh I absolutely love it!
-
Ah thank you both, that's reassuring in a way. I am resting too I promise but the school TDL doesn't go away and I am worried that I will start the term with a huge backlog if I don't get some things taken off it. I usually like to get it all done in one chunk at the start of the holiday so that I can properly switch off. I think I have pretty much resigned myself that isn't what will happen this year. I have had two deliveries of presents today and my mum is popping round to drop off some groceries later. Once that has happened I think I'll be able to switch off properly and fall asleep without worrying that I'm missing a knock at the door.

Hanging in there. Have been working this morning but am feeling rubbish again right now - all shivery. Does anyone know if that follows the pattern of others they know. I’m finding it really hard to explain to my parents that I see to be fine one minute then totally rubbish the next!
-
Phew! I like them to look at but they are absolutely not me to wear. I’m calling gingerbread and marmalade.
-
Sister in law’s cowl for Christmas is nearly finished too. I’m feeling quite productive!
-
Well, there is a pot of red lentil and tomato soup simmering in the kitchen, a loaf of bread rising by the fire (although not by much, it may be time for new yeast and I’ve just watched The Box of Delights. I feel pretty relaxed.
-
Thank you for asking everyone. I’m doing fine - same as before really, just tired and a bit achey. I’m just taking it easy, doing jobs when I’m awake and not moving too fast so I don’t get wheezy.
-
I know what you mean - being bored because I have to isolate is definitely not a problem!
-
I am - I specialise in falling asleep at the drop of a hat!
-
Well, I have a few Christmas presents that need finishing! Approximately 8 balls worth of unmade socks. My crochet Santa that I’ve been working on for a year, some embroidered gingerbread decorations, a felt gingerbread man garland and… (please can I have an extra month off work?). I’m ok - just a bit worn out and feeling a little fluey. I feel like something of a fraud at the moment to be honest!
-
Sounds lovely. I’ve also spoken to my sister who is making plans to deliver Christmas dinner!
-
Thank you. I'm tired and have a tight chest but it's also the end of term and I have mild asthma so I don't think I feel much different to normal!!
-
Well, my Friday is mixed. This morning I had my PCR results through confirming the positive LFT I did Wednesday. I have to isolate until Boxing Day. Because of that I’m feeling pretty sad. However, I have been overwhelmed by the offers of help from work and particularly touched because a colleague who lives in the same town as me but don’t work that closely with has just dropped some presents from school off and told me that she will be taking a walk past my house each day to check that I’m ok and that on Christmas Day she and her partner will be dropping off a bacon cob and some Bucks Fizz because they will not let me be on my own! People are good!
-
That is lovely! Congratulations to all!

As a year 1 teacher currently what I really need in pre-school is children who are brilliant in phase 1 'stuff'. There is no point in me teaching the many alternative spellings and pronunciations I have to if they can't actually discriminate sounds in words.
-
Thanks.
-
Apropos of nothing… does anyone else know if someone else can collect a click and collect order for you?
-
I so understand where you’re coming from!
