Re: Taking the plunge
It's nice to see you @Former-Member 😊 Those photos above are awesome. So happy 😁
A CAL is a crochet-a-long which is usually quite a large or detailed project separated into parts (usually weeks) and people from everywhere join in as they go. They're super cool 🙂 I'll post a pic once I've finished part 1.
Hope you have a day with good in it ❤

Re: Taking the plunge
It's a pretty cool one (image/type of coffee etc) @Maggie. I wonder if it's a real one 🤔
I'm going well thanks 🙂. Early morning for me and a bit of a tossy turny night but that's OK. My plans are to step way out of my comfort zone and spend the night in the city with a he person. I have a couple of nights at home with work and court over the next couple of days, so we're planning on spending some time together includong staying in the cith tonight. It's a treat for both of us (and a very big deal for someone who doesn't do going out like this!). Im nervous and excited 🙂
That aside, I have some prep for the hearing I need to do before I can do anything fun or exciting. I'm seriously anxious about it but trying really hard to keep it under control.
How are you going? How was your yesterday?

Re: Taking the plunge
@CheerBear It’s a huge thing to be dealing with, and so early into the new year. I have a feeling it should go ok for you, but I know at the moment, no one really knows. People like that can be sneaky and dishonest. I learnt that at my previous place.
Being well prepared is good, but hard to do. Go gently.
A night in the city @CheerBear . Wow, definitely out of your comfort zone. Time with he person, nervous and excited. I hope there are some beautiful memories for you both. Time out might be just what you need right now.
I’m doing a lot of soul searching @CheerBear, and it’s not coming easy at all. If I can work through some major ( self ) issues, I might get some clarity, then again, I might not.

Re: Taking the plunge

The early bird coffee pic is seriously cool. 👍👍👍☕️☕️☕️

Re: Taking the plunge
I think it depends so much on who is the person on during the day and how tolerant (or not) they are @Maggie. This seems so petty but it feels so important. It's taking a stand against so much more than this one thing that happened. I'm full on :pile_of_poo:ing myself about it. Going by the letter I received from them I wouldn't be surprised if they have lawyers there. Me vs something way bigger than me. I don't feel so brave anymore but it's too late to back down now. Oh well. I am trying to step in as I need then step way back as it gets too much quickly.
Time out tonight with he person seems like a great idea to me. I've fallen big time. It's exciting and so scary! All of a sudden insecurities and vulnerabilities are surfacing inside me. It would usually make me run far and fast but I'm not this time which is taking some sitting with. I'm sure you get that one.
Soul searching can be super tough. It is hard to do for so many reasons including, as you said, the lack of certainty that it will bring any kind of clarity. Is there a particular something that has brought this on at the moment? How are you looking after yourself while you're doing it?

Re: Taking the plunge
Never a silly question @Maggie! I'm doing it on my own. It's not as complicated or big as mandala madness (I think).
Love that you looked it up 🙂 I think it's pretty cool! I finished part 1 yesterday
