Keeping Happy.

ah yes @TAB

Many people are selling though due to over capitalising on property and taking out too high a mortgage.

They cannot afford the increase in repayments due to rate rises.

Others have been spending their equity instead of taking advantage of low interest rates over such a long period of time and paying off their mortgages quicker.

So not necessarily over priced.

More like owners over mortgaged.

Good luck.

Wherever you buy ......like your environment.

Hello @Clawde

How are you my friend?

I hope that you are managing still as I know you had time away from the forums to look after yourself.

That is not easy to do when we want to still be in touch with our forum friends.

It takes great strength to put ourselves first in our lives where we have been in the background for as long as we can remember for whatever reasons exclusive to our own experiences.

Taking time out to catch our breath and survive is putting ourselves first.

This is not a selfish act either.

I know that you are aware of all of this already.

You are very astute dear Clawde.

I just wanted to remind you

just in case you are similar to me and forget all of the above when life has it's periods of feeling overwhelming.

I am very good at writing these words to others.

I try to remind myself when I am writing them.

I need to remind myself though over and over.

It is not easy to just suddenly change patterned behaviours of a lifetime.

This is where I struggle.

Now I have written far too much.

I sincerely care about you Clawde.

Also this time of year affects me intensely as much as I try to put on brave faces and smiles.

No pressure to reply if you are not up to it.

I have been in a place where I just could not find the words for sometime now.

I am back here fleetingly at the moment.

Today is not a good day so I hope that I make sense.

Thinking of you and sending you warmest wishes of love

Hi @Sophia1,

I just wanted to say I think you write beautifully and you are words are very insightful and wise.

I also just want to check in with you that you are okay too as it sounds like things may be difficult for you particularly around this time of year. I hope you are okay.

Sending you warm wishes,

FloatingFeather

@Sophia1 @Clawde thoughts with you both 😸

Thank you @FloatingFeather

Also thank you for reading my never ending posts that I am infamous for.

I am really struggling this week.

I don't want to write about my stuff here and upset Clawde or her friends.

I will write in my safe space.

I will tag you there if that is okay with you.
