Re: Carers under 30...

lol yes that is true @Appleblossom
no i didnt go to sleep till about 3 and just been tossing and turning the rest. have cleaned the backyard up to the best of my ability and advertised some things for free to help clear out my house. i was going to crochet but my hands feeling pretty aggitated today from lifting something abit heavy up. i forget sometimes that just becuse the its healing doesnt mean its fully healed and still need to be careful.

how are you going?

Sounds ike a lot of work. Best to rest hand. I did not realise that you were moving.

Hi @outlander

Caught up with my egg friends (aka the eggheads). Turns out I did not get things quite right and have been given the following:

From two friends who share some eggs I have now got 2 complete dignity bags, 3 empty hand bags and a box of assorted items.

From another, 1 complete bag.

I have 2 empty hand bags and a box of assorted items that I have collected. I also have $15 in donations to put toward the bags.

I need to sort through the two boxes of items to see what I am missing to complete the 5 empty bags.

@Former-Member Busy Bee or hen ..lol

i have wanted to do clean up, but son is resisting. Has to be co-operative. His stuff involved.

@outlander Self regulating is a complex skill and involves all parts of our being, the tasks we do and our feelings. Not pushing ourselves beyond healthy levels.

its hard cos there are times we do need get our tushy off the couch .... it all depends ...

@Appleblossom partnering with @outlander to put some "dignity bags" together which are given to at risk women facing homeless, poverty or domestic violence. Instead of people paying me for eggs, I have asked for donation of items for these bags.

Re: Carers under 30...

What a great idea @Former-Member Glad you clarified that.

Do you have hens? Is it a barter economy and then donation?

In response to: Re: Carers under 30...

Re: Carers under 30...

We do have chooks @Appleblossom . I share the eggs with friends, I don't sell them. They wanted to do pay me so we came up with this instead.
