Far and Away

Far and Away

Hi @Former-Member .... 😊

Thanks @Faith-and-Hope, how's your adventure going? Is there a particular thread your putting updates? Jetlag takes about a week to settle I'm told, and I'm sure there's son Celtic wisdom to get over your post viral fatigue How's WH coping with his obcessive routines while travelling? A challenge I would think 😕 Hope this is a time yo rekindle some first love maybe.
Any good churches to visit there? Did you go this morning? Love ancient architecture and history. Churches are great for it. Hugz xox

Hadn't thought to start a new thread ....

In transit again today and have to go again now .... found a brief moment with wifi .... will catch you later and answer the above.

Hi to everyone else .... 👋🏽💗💕

Re: Far and Away

That is great about the stencils @Faith-and-Hope It is wonderful when we come across things by accident when we are doing other things.

Glad the cleaners are nice people - that would indeed be making it easy for you to feel comfortable with them being there

I really have to get up and moving - feels like the day is getting away from me already and I still have so much to do. Will head out and get the wool and pay the bills then hopefully that will give me a little energy to do everything else I need when I get home. I could very easily go back to sleep but that will not accomplish anything.

Will check in with you later to see how your piece is coming along. Goodluck with it Hon - so love you are doing that today

Hey @Faith-and-Hope

Finally got all the wool I needed - 5 shops and a trip to the city ...and more money than I intended to spend but have it all now. Also paid one bill and did the grocery shopping. Still need to get baby food but will do that either tomorrow after work or the weekend.

Have the cardboard rings to cut out and the box from the spare room with the furry material in it to get out this afternoon then I will pack it all in the car so I don't have to do it in the morning. I will need to leave earlier tomorrow to make sure I get a park in the car park - could not possibly walk it all up the hill and all the stairs to the classroom as it will take several trips to carry it all.

How is your competition piece coming along? Have the cleaners and tradesman left yet?

Re: Far and Away

Cleaners and tradesman have come and gone @Zoe7 . The comp piece is coming along. I don’t know whether I can finish it before I leave to head west, but here’s hoping. I have run out of white paint and have asked D3 to bring some home with here .... that might be make-or-break re getting it finished today .....

Also have to get my nails seen to this adternoon, cos they’re feeling ready to break and cause me issues I don’t need this weekend .... that’s for sure.

Re: Far and Away

Everything crossed that D3 remembers the paint and you can get it finished @Faith-and-Hope 🤞 Despite time limits for you - you definitely need your nails seen to before you head west and have to do some of that sorting of boxes. It will make you feel a little better when they are done too so good self-care there Hon

Munching on some chocolate at the moment - a small reward for getting most things done out that I needed to do. I don't have it often so it is a nice treat today.

Do you have everything packed you need to take with you?

Re: Far and Away

Thanks @Zoe7

Another very emotional day. Visited mum to see if she was ok. She had tried to pack her things and wanted to come home with me again. She cried when I left and said, she would be ok. So so very sad.

NBN finally sorted after much effort. 2 weeks wait. Wifi here is terrible now. Often can't get on.

I hope your day is going ok/well.

Hi everyone.

Re: Far and Away

Sorry fell asleep @Former-Member Definitely need more but will need to wait until tonight and try for an early night as I have too much to get done still.

So sad about your Mum Hon - it is heartbreaking for you but you are doing all you can. So glad you visited her again but can definitely hear how much it is taking out of you too It is so hard seeing her like that and wanting to come home with you but visiting her often hopefully gives her a little comfort

In response to: Re: Far and Away

Re: Far and Away

Good you slept @Zoe7

Lots of tears here.

Mum never cries normally.

It is heartbreaking

To see that she tried to pack her things was 😢😢😢😢😢

She says, can I come home with you, or where can I go. I’ve packed my things. 😭😭
