Re: Taking the plunge
Sounds good today @CheerBear Being with people who ‘ get it’ is so important, especially when ‘ fine’ isn’t fine at all.
Fundraiser is Sunday @CheerBear OMG. 😫🥴🥴🥴:pile_of_poo::pile_of_poo::pile_of_poo: What more can I say.
I’m playing with my first mosaic atm. It’s a tiny pendant, not a good place to start, but..🤷♀️🤷♀️

Re: Taking the plunge
No notifications again here @Maggie. Makes it a bit tricky.
With you with the omg of the fundraiser. That's super hard especially on the back of the week or so you've just had 😕
Ours is Sunday too. Yesterday I said I couldn't do as much as I'd usually do and couldn't do any without help, and in return I was handed the whole thing and given a "your responsibility now". It felt like a bit of (a lot of) a kick as I so rarely say 'I can't do' and rarely ask for help. I tried asking for more help from others and got crickets in return. It made me question why bother trying to be a good person or do good at all.
* I'm trying to find a positive note to end this paragraph on for both of us, but nothing coming. More sorry for the :pile_of_poo: though 💛
Mosaic sounds fun but incredibly fiddly with the word "tiny" in it. Can't imagine tiny pendant mosaic though it sounds very cool.

Tricky @CheerBear no notifications.
Not good enough @CheerBear . Sounds like selfish people handing the responsibilities on to you, not hearing what you are saying. I’ve asked that question myself @CheerBear and often. Mainly the people in my world are more capable physically and mentally, but .. I have some not so good thought there. You are a good person @CheerBear and will always be just that. I wish we could combine the fundraisers, and have fun.
I have help. My trusted counsellor. The fundraiser is for her counseling. Can’t say much more without being too obvious.
Mosaic is fiddly @CheerBear , and I’m not having much success, but it’s keeping my mind from stormy thoughts atm, even short term.

Re: Taking the plunge
Smiled at combining fundraisers and having fun @Maggie. That's such a nice thought and something I think I'd really enjoy 😊❤ Would love to support your counsellor. She's good in the world (you both are).
Good to hear you have something that's helping keep the stormy thoughts away. I'm too unsettled for fiddly at the moment and would probably throw things in a rage tanty 😉 I've been playing my game when I can. It's a magical world of adventure and a great escape. Pretty sure that if I could click my fingers and become a Pokemon I would (they added a gorgeous and super powerful unicorn one this game) 😆
Thanks heaps for your company this morning. It's been a really good feeling start to today.
Hope the day has some good in it for you (all) ❤

Re: Taking the plunge
Good morning @Maggie @CheerBear @eth @outlander and others
Yes @Maggie we got a small amount of rain overnight ... 3mms in total. Almost enough to freshen things up a little bit. Its a beautiful morning in fact ... blue sky, just a hint of cool in the air after the storms last night. Its going to get hot though sadly, up to 35C predicted. So that tiny bit of moisture is long gone.
Ummm breakfast here this morning Maggie is french toast. I try to have an egg dish every 2nd or 3rd day. So its eggs again today. Hubby likes my french toast, so thats a bonus too.
Hubby's oncology 3-monthly appointment this morning, review of scans and blood tests to see how things are going.
@CheerBear I hope your gig goes well and you are up to it once you get there. Getting there is always the hardest part, when it comes to such things. Really gotta push yourself sometimes, but its usually worth it. I am much the same with my volunteering work.
Okay, hubby is stirring ... meds run first, then onto short order cook duties. And .... a nice hot pot of tea on the go.
Oops nearly forgot @Maggie ... the coffee you left out earlier ... the one you said might be cold by the time we got to it? Well ... I put it in the fridge and its now iced coffee. The only way I drink coffee. Yummy. You can leave one out for me anytime. Weird of me aye?
Have a decent day all of you.
Sherry 💕😊

❤ @outlander and @eth ❤
Thinking of you with hubby's appointments today @Former-Member. That's a hard and anxious one 🤗 (wish that hug emoji wasn't so happy looking sometimes 😏). Re the coffee - not weird of you unless I'm weird too as that's the only way for me too 🙂😉
