Something’s not right

not coping

Re: not coping

It's just something I go through every few weeks or so @outlander. And I'm struggling with this isolation. I miss many things that I used to do. But I'm trying to count my blessings.

I was supposed to be going to Victoria next January but it sure now. And things are even more complex with the Virgin Airline collapse.

Re: not coping

I hope itll pass soon then, im always around if you need me 💜
Im thinking lots of people are struggling with the isolation and strict rules. We arent built to be stuck inside 4 walls all the time.
Has there been any mentions on when some restrictions might ease for your state esp for the social side of things or even reopening of your op shop again?

Mm the airline collapse does make things trickier now. Hopefully towards the end of the yr the economy might pick up abit and travelling becomes abit more possible esp if staying within aust.
Any reason youd like to go to victoria? @Sans911

Re: not coping

I was actually going to a 10 year reunion with 2 ladies that I lived with in Saudi Arabia. One woman lives here in Perth, the other in New Zealand. I like Melbourne, and so does my Aussie friend, so it was decided that is a good place to meet. It was supposed to be this year but my Aussie friend has kids so couldn't do the September hols (and then the pandemic happened).

And I was going to combine it with seeing other parts of Victoria.

Re: not coping

Oh that would've been awesome @Sans911
Gah this pandemic really sucks!
Hopefully you might still be able to go by january or not long after that cause thatd be pretty good.
It amazes me how indendent you are with your travels all over the world!. Im scared to go on a train for 2 hrs (plus 2 hrs back) on my own to a place ive been plenty of times 🤦‍♀️ im suppose to go on thursday to surgical checkup but i think ill be cancelling cause of how i am physically though.

I would eventually like to come over to WA, ive been wanting to for a while now. watching that 'getaway' travel show one time they done a segment on wa and made me want to go even more! I guess thatd mean id have to face my fear of flying too 🛩😬🤦‍♀️

Re: not coping

WA is a long way on a bus hun @outlander!!

It has been suggested that if you take an antihistamine on a flight it might help.

It's beautiful here, the whole state. But, being born here I'm very biased.

I've been independent with getting around from a very young age. I flew unaccompanied at the age of 7 on Ansett! I was hooked from that time. But I'm independent in all aspects of my life so I guess not much fazes me.

Re: not coping

I drive everywhere so maybe ill just drive over 😏 if i leave now ill get there by the time i wanted to start travelling 😂 @Sans911

Hmm not sure your biased, i dont live there but that tv show has me packing bags lol.
Yes your definently independent for sure! Doesnt cease to amaze with the things you do really, its inspiring 🌷

Re: not coping

Trust me @outlander you don't want to drive. There is NOTHING interesting to look at for most of the journey. And the cost of fuel on the Nullarbor is astronomical!

Just get on a plane and be done with it!

Re: not coping

I've just taken my meds @outlander but I have a feeling you've drifted off.

If that's the case goodnight my angel 💕💕💕💕

I'll check on you in the morning

Re: not coping

Re: not coping
