Re: Taking the plunge
So good you are beginning to feel better @CheerBear . It’s been a long dragged out illness. The people here I know who have had it , say it was really hard to shake. I hope the big weekend goes ok enough. Rest where you can. 🙏🙏
I did wonder about soccer last night @CheerBear . It was a rough one here weather wise. At least your house is still clean. 👍👍
I feel like I’ve missed something huge seeing the panic buying @CheerBear . I’m scratching my head at it all. I didn’t know it had extended to all the other things you mentioned. Wow.
Do you see your psych today @CheerBear ??

Re: Taking the plunge
It's been so full on @Maggie. I don't remember feeling quite so sick with a bug like that for as long as I have this time. On the mend is a huge relief!
I didn't know the panic extended to those things either until I went to do a usual shop. I don't think it's that widespread for all the other stuff, but here it feels like zombie apocalypse times :face_with_rolling_eyes: Middle and I felt it lots with the hours spent seeing Dr's this week. Everywhere was packed.
Psych next week for me. I see counsellor one week and psych the next. I spent my session yesterday with counsellor in a big ball of 'too hard, too much, want to get away' tears. I have struggled more this week than I could say. Today will be better though 🤞🙂
I have a break place friend kind of person coming over for coffee while I make another one of those cakes 🎁 She's lovely and I haven't seen her for a while.
How's today looking for you? Any colour or paint in there maybe?

Re: Taking the plunge
So sorry the struggle has been/ is so hard @CheerBear . When the chips are down, really down, support is scarce. You do an amazing job pushing through what you do. But that’s no help at all. The struggle goes on. Sometimes I wonder if it’s just expected of us. I do know walls and animals are the only witnesses to many of the deepest, heartbreaking tears and fears. 💜💜💜
Oh another cake @CheerBear . That might be fun. Having a break place friend will be really good today.
I have to find my kitchen before counsellor arrives @CheerBear . It keeps disappearing on me. I might find colour after that.

Re: Taking the plunge
The cake I am hoping to make will have a packet of tipped up lollies (smarties or M&Ms probably) spilling on to it. We'll see. I have an excited crew member here 😊
Good luck with the hunt for your kitchen. Annoying disappearing kitchens 😆 Ours might get lost under buttercream today!
Better fly. Mega ❤

Re: Taking the plunge
Yes @CheerBear I do get it. Counsellor tries to support me in ( those ) big ones, but I have a bunch of cactus that thrive on crisis. So in the intimacy relationship, I would be more than lost. Big 💜💜💜 Just the fact that they stay, even from a distance, is such a gift.
Yea for excited crew member, cake and tipped up lollies ( smarties or m&ms. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I’m off to find a kitchen. 🙏🙏🙏 Enjoy what you can today. 🎂🎂🎂❤️❤️❤️

Re: Taking the plunge
How have you been the last couple of days? hope muddling along is OK.
The cake actually worked and the littler one was really impressed 😁 I did an M&M's pack 'floating' above the cake, pouring M&M's on to it.
I/we did something pretty huge last night - we went to the cricket. It's been a long time since I've been able to try a crowd anywhere near that. Unwell person bought the tickets for us last year and Mr Friend, Little, Big and Big's friend came along to see Australia win the T20 world cup. It was so much fun and I'm super glad I was able to go and to take 2/3rds of the crew to see it.
How's today looking for you?
Sending lotsa ❤
