I would say this is a worrying time...... and I just wanted to share a journey with you and my spelling maybe out of sync but I hope you get the gist.
One minute we are talking about what we are having for dinner, how we are going to plan our weeks ahead either budgeting, food, activities etc and through social media influencing always comparing one another and looking to be better our lives and admittedly as a nation being greedy! I always think cant we have soup as main dish but that soon become a starter. Where I came from that was meal for the week "mutton soup" meat if I was lucky.
I had a difficult home and financial challenges like most of us did..... so when we were all hit with this dreadful virus Coronovirus this was life changing and put a STOP on life for us all.
Its within my nature to work at a fast pace and never slow down and having a three year old is full on. As a parent, carer, worker, friend, family member these responsibilities hold there own and you become used to this pace of life.
Then...... THE VIRUS HITS US ALL LIKE A TON OF BRICKS...... EEEEEK S###t.
This has been hard. When I was a child it was all I knew, this wasn't predicted and out the norm and it never stopped us all from being able to hug one another, or see our families and it never happened over night. This has been massive change in the way we operate as a family and country without having time to digest. Its put us and our loved ones at risk and actually scared, its added stress to whether or not we can afford to get through this period. Its changed routines, operations in how we shop, socialise, but most of all its impacting on all our well being. We now have to spend time with those we like break from lol but on a serious note your home becomes smaller and things that didn't get on your nerves now do!! and now spinning more plates than already
Im struggling too and wanted to reach out my anxiety levels have been up there but its fine to feel this way and if ever you need support or some one to reach out then we all have an understanding as were not a team here at Jrh who are breezing through this tough time and totally understand the days we wobble but let us support you also.
I just wanted to reach out and say we are here all the way together as a Jrh family. We have a lot of support we can offer around all the fundamentals but sometimes just a call maybe needed and advice.
Keep safe and we are truly appreciative

That’s a very touching post Kerry. We all wobble at times but we don’t all wobble at the same time. As a team we’re strong and we can look after each other when it’s needed.
Caring about each other and checking up on each other is what will get us all through this, and we WILL get through this.
Thank you for your honesty Kerry, and for opening up an opportunity for all of us to feel unafraid to share our feelings on here or in some other way, safe in the knowledge that we are surrounded by people who care.
