Far and Away

haha way past Nelly's bed time @Faith-and-Hope

I am not going to tell you to follow her because I need to take my own advice and we both know I haven't been doing that lately At least tonight I am not working anymore and am relaxing on the couch with Tobes. Not even going to worry about heading to bed island - if I fall asleep on the couch so be it - spent most of the morning and early afternoon asleep here anyway.

Will you get your assignment done tonight?

Not yet @Zoe7 ..... 👋🦋💕

Good morning @Faith-and-Hope ... thinking of you as you continue to navigate your way through all the WH issues on your plate. You have been very quiet on the forums the past couple of weeks, understandably so, and I hope you are managing to use this time to 'recharge' your batteries with some much needed self care. In between everything else that you must do of course, with uni, bds, Nelly, etc. Nelly, btw, is beginning to sound very settled in her new home. Its a delight to read about her. I am so happy that you have her in your life now. Nothing beats a much loved pet, especially a dog or a cat. I've said it more times than I can remember ... I dont know where I'd be without my Holly. I continue to see Quinn (stray tuxedo cat) too, almost every day. I have even managed to sneak him an occasional bit of chicken, which he likes. And rewards me with a chance to have a good pat as he rubs against me, wanting more. For a stray, he seems to spend a lot of time here ... mostly on one of our outdoor undercover chairs. But also in a special spot he has during the day, in a dense bit of garden, which I can see outside our study window. Holly and Quinn continue to accept each other quite comfortably.

Hi @Zoe7 ... glad most of painting etc now done, at least you will now have a couple of rest days before school next Monday. Only another 5 weeks and we may have our NRL back on too ... fingers crossed it can happen. And our two teams ... Parra and Cba ... look like keeping their hard earned points from the first 2 rounds. Only fair.

Morning @oceangirl @Angels333 @Maggie @Former-Member @BlueBay @Shaz51 @Bunniekins and other visitors to here. I hope everyone has a good day today. This ANZAC day with a difference. Did anyone watch the dawn service today?

@oceangirl Hey oceangirl good to see you. Hope you have a kind and caring day. Love peaxx

It will be good to have some sport back @Former-Member but it doesn't seem quite the same without the fans there - no atmosphere

Hope you are powering though that assignment @Faith-and-Hope and got some sleep last night. Very much thinking of you Hon

@oceangirl my sister , soo good to see you

Hi @Zoe7 @Former-Member @Shaz51 @oceangirl @MDT @Bunniekins and anyone else around.

Thank you for the well-wishes @Zoe7 @Former-Member ...., our legalz are very messy, and of course WH is using the opportunity to be highly abrasive, oppositional, vindictive and underhand at a level I would never have believed him capable of.

such is life at the moment, so it's about weathering the storm and persisting with the truth. In my belief system, God supports truth, so it is very important to me to stay on that pathway and try not to let situational depression seep in, as it can do under gas-lighting, and blindsiding intended to promote ruminating over what has been said and done unjustly, with the intend to manipulate and invalidate.

So .....,

I am playing music constantly in the background. WH put a bazillion TV's into this house, so I have opened them all on the same music channel to "pipe" music through the house.

I am focusing as hard as I can to get back up to speed with my assignments and artworks, and launching new ones, working a little at this, and a little at that ..... trying to keep all the balls in the air, but I also have extensions available to me as a carer, and can also claim extenuating circumstances.

@Teej 👋💕

Nelly is continuing to settle in beautifully here and is roaming the place like she owns it, most of the time anyway.

I am enjoying cooking for D2 and me foods that we enjoy and watching documentaries over mealtimes together.

I ordered some new art materials online this morning, and I am up to date with all my bills 👍

I am trying to keep WH's :pile_of_poo: parked to the side of my life, and every time I think of him, "her" or any of those enabling and supporting him, I am deliberately making contact with someone who loves and appreciates me, so that I remember that "him / them" are few, and caring, decent people are many.
