Locked level 4

Tweet

I am legally with my Mum but while I was here as her support bubble, London went overnight into level 4 and I am not sure if I can legally go home. Ironically, I am my daughter's childcare bubble and can care for her because she legitimately needs help, She is better than she was but still needs help shopping and cleaning, We can prove her need, However, I cannot do the logical thing and combine the bubbles. Neither my mum, or my daughter have been out in a long time. My grandson has been off school a fair while. It would help so much if I could have my grandson here. I can't. If I have him, I will have to take him home. I think. We have spent hours pouring over the rules and got more and more confused. You can be a childcare bubble and a support bubble but not at the same time, but you can help someone in an emergency and my daughter is classed as having a disability. We are being careful though and I will only help on days she really needs it. Her father and my ex brother in law had the virus badly, so we are being very cautious, but it makes no sense to add another stranger into the mix. We had to cancel our Christmas plan to be together and I guess that is wise, but it sure would help if I could help everyone in one place, and I am wondering if I will ever be able to travel to my own home again. However, sacrifices must be made for the common good. I think I can, but is that even wise? I really do have to go back at some point if I can. It is a 2 hour journey and into level 2. When I arrived here to see mum it was level 2, went to level 3 and then the level 4 kicked in. It is such a wierd world at the moment. Thankfully, I brought Freya the Catblog Cat with me. She is not happy to have to be a house cat, but likes the beds.
