Re: Taking the plunge

I had a good enough day thanks @Maggie. Still very much learning as I go but I think that's OK. I was on the phone for a little while doing the work I used to only do, and it was really lovely talking with people. Great reminder of why this work is important. One kid was having a really bad day yesterday which wasn't great though. Seriously tricky to juggle that at the same time. Crossed everythings that it is a better day for them today.

How are you doing this morning? How was your yesterday?

@Former-Member how are you also?

Re: Taking the plunge

@CheerBear I think this is the hardest it will be. Once the Crew are back at school, you won’t be trying to be in two places at once. It is tricky at the moment, especially when one is having a bad day.

How is Middle? Is having two arms free helping?

Everything crossed today is better for you. 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

I had a busy yesterday. I started organising some boxes that haven’t been done since I moved here. They are shoe boxes. I have different crafts in each. Yes, I do have a things about shoes, and I’ve kept these boxes for years. I just threw stuff everywhere in the move. Then I moveed some furniture around. I now have my tablet by the window. More light. Better for painting etc.

I’m tired this morning. But it feels good to have it done. Plus cleaning along the way.

I'm okay thanks @CheerBear @Maggie 😀🌸

Sorry yesterday wasnt such a good day for one of the crew @CheerBear . Hoping today is an improvement, for them, and thus you.

Hey @Maggie how long are you on the training wheels, before you become a fully fledged Guide? Are you enjoying it?

Lots of medical appts this week for hubby. One down yesterday, another three speciatists to go. Usual merry go round. I then have an appt with eye specialist on Friday myself.

But today is a free day. Hoping I might get some craft in. Got a new diamond painting canvas enticing me.

Weather cold from today, after some mid 20's days prior. Not ideal for outdoor activities.

Hope you ladies have a good day. As well as @Bunniekins @eth @outlander @Faith-and-Hope @TheVorticon

Sherry 🐶🌺

Re: Taking the plunge

I am thinking/hoping the same @Maggie. That this is deep end stuff and it will only get easier once the kids are at school and when we are back in the office. I wouldn't have thought this was close to possible for me 6 months ago (just looked at the date and it was six months to the day ago that I went to hospital).

Middle had the tricky day yesterday. Lots of big feelings inside their little body. When Middle has a bad day the whole house feels it. They baked though, which helped for a bit. Baking is something this one in particular has really enjoyed while we have been at home.

Organising things often feels really good once it is done I find but it can be tiring. So nice to have some light to sit in and paint by. How's the pain today?

Yay for being a shoe person 😁 I am a one-particular-type-of-shoe person haha.

How's today looking for you?

Re: Taking the plunge

I keep missing your posts @Former-Member, as my notifications are lagging. Sorry.

Tough with lots of appointments this week. My unwell person's attitude can be a bit/a lot yuckier when there are lots of appointments. I hope Mr Sherry copes OK enough.

Enjoy your free day. How fun to have a new diamond painting waiting 😁

Re: Taking the plunge

Feeling very inadequate @Former-Member. I can only do my best, which I try to do.

Not sure how long the training goes for. I’ll check info that’s been given to us in case I’ve missed that.

You must be sick of medical appointments @Former-Member . At least Friday is something for you.

A crafty day today. 👍👍👍 Did your drills arrive from overseas? I know you were waiting to finish one? I hope you can recharge a bit, rest ect.

Heavy fog here today. Not overly cold though. Front later in the week, -2.
