Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 Dusk. Bad place. Bad bad bad place. Make me spend much dollars. Lol, I love Dusk. I still have a candle from when Dusk was a single store in Perth (back in 2000) and the candles were Australian made. It still has a scent. They got too big and outsourced to China unfortunately but I still love them. I was just burning some Dusk tealights actually, Amber Nights - patchouli and vanilla.

I love the Osaka and Spirituality ones best.

A friend of mine had a candle shop and I bought from him until he sold the shop and I went back to Dusk.

Yeah, most things are made in China now @ENKELI

it is expensive there I only get things when they are on sale.

@Birdofparadise8 same. I am a member but I still only buy occasionally these days.

I started making my own and have different fragrances, colours and candle moulds plus a candle maker that my mum bought for my birthday one year so I really should start making more of my own.

The picture is of the candle maker, you put wax in it, it melts and you pour it into a mould to set. There are specialty shops that sell the wax, colours and fragrances, most of the moulds I bought from Shein because they are so much cheaper.

Ah okay @ENKELI

I can't have candles in uni res; only a diffusers.

@Birdofparadise8 I'm not surprised lol! They can cause a lot of mess even before you consider the burning down the premises situation! I got wax all over the wall and spent days trying to clean it off.

Diffuser scents are much more concentrated anyway. I'm trying to think of some cheaper alternatives to Dusk for you. Natio have nice oils too, and often they have good sales on.

Oh no, that's not good.

Thank you @ENKELI

I'll have a look at them.

I'm going to go to bed now, but my meds have kicked in quite fast today.

I hope your appointment tomorrow goes well.

Thank you for chatting with me and keeping me company today. @ENKELI

@Birdofparadise8 and thank you for keeping me company too 😍

Hope your day goes well, I will probably be around in the evening if you want to chat when you have time 👑💙💮

That's okay @ENKELI

Okay cool. I'll let you know how KHL goes tomorrow.

Hey there @creative_writer 🙂🌺

Yes it’s very challenging facing societal and or community expectations regarding marriage, I do agree 💜

and I’m really sorry to hear you almost feel ashamed for not being married 💜

that sounds really difficult to sit with ❤️‍🩹

thank you, I really appreciate that 🙂🌺
