Re: Taking the plunge

Sorry to read that the gardener de-gardened your rocket plants @Maggie.
No offense intended (hoping you take this as a joke because it brought a smile to my face) but perhaps the gardener shares my opinion that rocket tastes like weeds 😉 But I hope your plants recover.

Lol @TheVorticon . I make a sauce out of it. The best green colour I’ve ever seen. Yes, very grassy taste. I’m vegetarian, so could be getting carried away.

Good to see you. 💞💞

Love that you replanted the rocket with ... Colourful words for good measure.

@Maggie

Gentle humour helps

Kettle is on @Maggie and anyone who might be up ❤

I'm sorry about your sad Maggie 🙁 Do you have counsellor today? Will you share your sad with her?

❤

@CheerBear Second ☕️ Here.

How are you doing?

Yes, counsellor and I have been talking about the sad for a few weeks now. Risks don’t always end positive.

Re: Taking the plunge

I'm meh @Maggie. Sad too but thankful to have my crew and the things we have.

It's hard to take a risk and to not have it work out. Is it a church sad? Just a guess and could be way off, and no pressure to talk if you don't want to or can't.

Re: Taking the plunge

Yes @CheerBear a church sad. Thankyou for hearing it. It’s just guttering , and I hoped for a different outcome. But I can’t fit back in the box, I don’t want to. I’ve changed. Pain has changed me. I have my faith, I know that much, but it’s not the same as church people have.

I can image feeling meh @CheerBear . Back in full lockdown. Yes, you have your Crew, thank goodness you have each other. Any projects happening? Any fire? 🔥🔥

Re: Taking the plunge

😔 I'm sorry @Maggie. That's a big blow. It takes a lot of courage to try and when it hasn't helped it's huge. Is counsellor com8ng today?

I don't have any projects happening but want to. I think it would help. I wish I could have taken my desk back before we shut down. I think it would have inspired me to get things sorted here again. Waiting for news on remote learning before I sort the house out, again 😑. I went to go to Spotlight the day before shut down and remembered it was in an already locked down place so I didn't go. Now I am struggling with what is essential and not. Bunnings and Spotlight are probably not essential 🙁 I have a work project I could (probably should) be doing though. Middle and I did the driveway again in bright rainbow chalk yesterday. That was something at least.

Re: Taking the plunge

@CheerBear Yes, counsellor will be here st 9 am, so I had better get a giggle on. 😁

I know what it feels like, knowing a project would help, but not quite getting to project motivation motor kicking in. I think essentials do actually involve Bunnings and spotlight, it’s a mind care thing. Art is therapy, therapy helps get though tough times. It’s more that food and rest. Just my ravings there.

Driveway sounds lovely. 🌈🌈🌈

I better get moving, my lounge is lost. 😁😁 My Painting ( student) he he, came twice this week. She was keen to finish her project. Sending 💞💞💞💞☕️☕️☕️☕️

Re: Taking the plunge

@CheerBear It was meant to read jiggle on, not giggle 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Not sure if you will be dropping by today, but leaving a ☕️☕️ Just in case you do.

I hope you are doing as best you can. 💞💞💞
