Far and Away

Sorry @Owlunar .... I was halfway there though a reply to you and had to go earlier.

i am at a self-isolation level of lockdown around D2 as she is at higher risk than the general community, but it has been manageable overall. I am having everything delivered, so we are sort of in a cocoon, and I am getting the house sorted out and my uni work done.

That coffee pot image is a favourite of mine, and brings a warm feeling with it. With all the rain around here today, it felt like the right one to start the day with.

@Zoe7 👋💕

ohhhh coffeee @Faith-and-Hope , @Owlunar , @Bimby2 , @Zoe7 , @Meowmy

yesss please

Thanks @Faith-and-Hope

That coffee set does have a warm feeling about it - I am waiting to see my doctor atm and I would accept a virtual coffee right now - otherwise I am pretty much in my own cocoon - because of my senior citizen status, - there are worse things but I will be glad to be able to get out a bit more

Best wishes

Dec 💗

@Faith-and-Hope @Owlunar @Shaz51 @Sans911 @Snowie @Adge @Bimby2 @Meowmy and others passing through...

A very long day for my first day off class online learning. I had 101 messages to get through solely on the platform we are using for online learning - and that was only from the holidays and the first day of this week. I managed to make it through 70 of them so it should only take me the morning tomorrow to catch up and then deal with the ones that come in tonight and in the morning. That did not include all the emails, external requests/problems and running around taking hardcopies of the work to some families without internet. Once that is all ironed out it should be a little easier but this week is super full on already. I am not back on class until next Tuesday though so I have time to get through it all, develop a good routine that works and then sort through everything quicker.

I also have to do a completely different plan for one of my students who needs a lot of support. We were encouraging his parents to send him to school so we could do that first hand but it looks like he will only come the days I am on class - so extra work to get it organised for the days he is home.

Don't think I will be up for long tonight - sooo tired and still not 100%. Hopefully lots of Toby snuggles and a really early night.

Love to all and some extra squishy hugs for those that need them

@Zoe7 hey sweetie,well done re job. Take care. Big hugs.

Hey @Meowmy Thanks Hon. How are you?

@Zoe7 @Faith-and-Hope @Meowmy @Owlunar @Shaz51 @Former-Member and all passing through here. Lots of love and hugs ❤💜

Thanks for sharing your day @Zoe7 .... lovely to have a window into what you are doing and achieving ... go Teach ❣️

i hope you have a good big rest tonight and recover a little more of your energy.

I have had a day of ticking boxes ..... getting things done ..... in class at the mo (with the mic off), with sharing of work happening, which is really helpful for work I haven't completed yet. I had a not-good moment with the legals last week that threw me a bit, so this is the assignment I really have to get back into, and I'm starting to feel okay about it.

My coffee cup here has a butterfly on it .... 😏 .... feeling like that's a hello from you.

👋❄️💕 @Snowie .... hugs incoming

Hi @Meowmy

awww @Faith-and-Hope yep take that as an 'I am there with you: Hon I had a F&H moment today too - one of our aids had peacock earrings on - so that not only made me smile but also think of you ...it is those little things in the day that help. Another thing that really helped this morning was I found my bracelet I thought was lost forever. It disappeared about a week ago and right there on the road next to my car it was shining up at me today - I could not believe it but it definitely made a very bad morning so much better ....and helped me navigate my way through the hectic day.

I hear you about the tricky legal moments and know from how you have been lately that they are really affecting you - super sucky Hon but as usual you are making your way through it all the best you can ...with your usual dignity and grace. There will be an end to all this eventually and I am grateful for you that you have your art and uni to help distract you when needed.

Great that you are feeling a bit more okay with this present assignment - is this the one that references a lot of what is happening for you? If it is then it will be both cathartic to do and great when it is finished.

Keep walking those stepping stones Hon - because at the end of it is solid ground again where you will be free to live your life and soar as and when you wish to

Hey also @Snowie I read you are most likely going back into hospital Hon - that is super hard but great that you have getting the help you deserve. Much love and hugs for you Snowie

@Snowie hey snowie, take care of yourself.
