Good Morning!

Hey dear @Former-Member lovely to see you hun. I missed you. Hope things are well with you love. I've been buying craftmaking cards and decoupage stickers. I'm handmaking cards. It's fun and sending them to relatives and friends. I am traditional and love to send cards and letters in the post. Postman Pat delivers them for me lol.

Take good care sweetie @Former-Member. Blessings.

Yes dear @outlander, I've done remarkably well. I've been discharged as in remission of mental illness 8 years ago. So I no longer routinely see a Psychiatrist and I've not been in hospital for 10 years and 2 months. We all have hiccups lol. My mother has been abusing me for years so it was not nice. But my brokenheart has been healed by Jesus, so I am grateful. He binds the wounds of the brokenhearted. And I do intend to keep a Gratitude Book and give thanks for everything in all circumstances lol.

It would be nice to have a normal nurturing mother but unfortunately I have a bad witch of a mother haha. Still I have the good Lord Jesus, my cat fluffy, my auntie and all my cherished Christian friends who are my brothers and sisters in Christ. The church is my family now lol. And I've never been happier.

Love you dearly @outlander.

@BambiFawni really understand the witchiness of some mothers. i have one of those too and have sufferred alot of emotional abuse basically since early teens- thats as far as i can remember anyway in that regard. its really nice to hear you talk this way, you seem so hmm calm and gentle natured i think anyone would be lucky to meet you. gratitude journals are good too, i dont have one but i do have a daily positives thread- your more than welcome to join in there if you like and also a gratitude thread. im happy to tag you into them if you like- no pressure of course

sending some gentle, warm and loving hugs your way

@BambiFawnthose cards sound nice, you should post some pictures of them. I am deciding what craft project I take on next. Thinking of doing another quilt.
