Re: Taking the plunge
That fine line is so hard for everyone @Maggie 🙁 It's something I'm struggling with more and more now I do a lot more with my people. It frustrates me at times but I understand it. I can imagine it being sad to see and be part of, even indirectly part of.
I'm thinking you've mentioned your foster daughter before but I forgot. That's huge and 12 days is seriously teeny. I'm thinking of all the feels that might come along with that at the time and now as a memory. So many questions, but maybe not ones to ask or to need an answer for. You are a wonderful person Maggie ❤
Oh dear with the mind changes and the patience that might take on your end :face_with_rolling_eyes: I wish I could share what the table and dining room here looks like. There is paint and canvas out permanently now 😆 You've created a dotting monster in unwell person 😍 Different people join them at different times (including my little crew) and sit with them sometimes in silence, sometimes in quiet conversation and sometimes in big laughs. I'm stoked to see it happening as it's having such a calming and distracting impact on them. They get their big results in a few days and usually the tension would be starting to really build around now but this feels calmer. I'm sure it has something to do with the time out they're taking with their paint ❤

Re: Taking the plunge
@CheerBear Trying to be helpful, when it registers as unhelpful, is tricky. I can only imagine how hard that is being as close as you are to your family. Frustrating trying to look and feel, through the eyes of others.
Your table sounds amazing. Silence, quiet conversation, big laughter, important memories to hold on to. Difficult as it is also, with big results just days away.
I not longer spend time practicing, and mapping out stones for my neighbour, it just happens, that’s the way she likes it, she’s spontaneous, and it’s her stone, her art, her joy. I’m just helping when needed.
I’m off to the shower, and local tree 😩😩😩😁😁😁😁
Hope your day is as good as it can be. 💜💜💕💕💜

Re: Taking the plunge
It's been a very tossy turny morning for me and I've been busting for it to get to not-totally-ridiculous-o'clock so I can put an end to lying in bed trying to sneak in some sleep. So much appreciation for the mornings and their fresh start 🙂
@Maggie I'll leave a cuppa in these ones today. No pressure to come by and say hi though, but here it you'd like.
Hope the day starts OK for any/all ❤

Re: Taking the plunge
🙁 @Maggie. Drained dry sounds awful. Is it running it over in your head, or not-knowing where to from here, or the post big thing crash (or something totally different)?
Lots back 💕💕💕☕💕☕💕
Lots back 💕💕💕☕💕☕💕
