RE: Darkness surrounds me

@CheerBearI had to buy new school uniform for Miss 12 because she won't stop growing!! She is my height now and I am probably average height so will soon be taller than me!

She isn't picky about clothes however to will happily choose things from K-mart or Best and Less which makes it not as pricey to buy new clothes!

Ghostbusters is a good movie. We haven't watched that for awhile, might suggest it today for them!

Hopefully they clean out the playroom with minimal complaining

@CheerBearyes we do the op shopping too!

I have a friend of mine who has a daughter 2 years older and tall too so she gives me alot of clothes also which is really nice of her. She shops at expensive shops! so my Miss likes it when she gets those too. Hand me downs are a great thing. I then pass them onto my neice when they are too small for my MIss.

Good morning @Faith-and-Hope, gonna be a hot one today!

👋 Morning @CheerBear .....

Hi also @Former-Member @Maggie @Former-Member if you’re still here .....

Hey @Former-Member ..... good to see you too.

I have woken early this morning, but I think I managed 6-7 hours sleep, which is great. Must be acclimatising to local time a bit more.

Trying to work out a long-ish walk for coffee this morning. My regular long-walk-for-coffee shop is in a business district so not open today.

Morning @Faith-and-Hope

Thats a good sleep and yes, getting used to the east times.

A walk for coffee sounds good this morning before it heats up too much

Thanks @Former-Member for keeping me company! Now you need to go home and sleep

Looks like the temperature will be reasonable till lunchtime @Former-Member, with cloud cover, but clear and hot all afternoon .....

I will try to get out early, and maybe swim this afternoon .... well, more like veg in the pool. We have a sports centre available near here. I have to do some more sorting out in the house, so that might be my incentive, along with an ice cream or iced coffee, depending on how much stuffing I have left by then.

@Faith-and-Hopethat sounds like a good idea. I was so happy to read also that you are getting your art corner set up for yourself for when you are here. Sounds like some good self caring happening along with the gratitude journal.

Mmmm iced coffee is my favourite

You are welcome @Former-Member Yes I'm signing off now and will be alsepp within 5mins of head down 🙂

Hope you get some rest soon and have a good weekend.

Frog out

Have found a coffee shop in a green park on Google maps, so might head for that and see how I go. Think you would like it @Maggie .... 🌷💕

I hope you can put your feet up for most of the day @Former-Member.

Hope you get help with the playroom @CheerBear. Mine were great at making the effort to get them to help so draining that it wasn’t worth it .... so I set mini-targets .... and made deals .....

“Okay, pancakes for breakfast for anyone who puts their hand to putting some Lego back in the box, and ice cream with it for anyone who gets it all packed away.”

”We will catch the bus to the $5 movies if someone makes popcorn, someone fills water bottles, and someone packs away the toys on the playroom rug ..... just the ones on the rug .... and no tipping the ones on the rug onto the floor !! Yes, you can share those jobs if you want (Yessssss !! Secret fist pump !!)”
