Twisted -self care

Twisted -self care

Every morning I drive east into the sun.
At traffic lights I put sunscreen on the backs of my hands.
This morning I realised that this is self care,
Very rare for me.
I need to do more of this....

Re: Twisted -self care

Oh that is a long day @Catcakes 🙁 I'd imagine that might be pretty draining. Knitting is a great thing to be doing while your mum was sleeping. Was it the project I saw in craft corner? Love those colour shades.

Have you got much on over the weekend?

Re: Twisted -self care

Yes @CheerBear, it’s a blanket for a baby due in May.My D2 has told me I need to do at least five rows per day.
I will go to Mum’s again tomorrow but I have Sunday off.🌿

Re: Twisted -self care

What a special gift @Catcakes. Setting a number of rows a day is a great idea 👍 One of my projects at the moment is to finish off a baby blanket for someone. A relative of theirs was making it when they passed away and someone asked me if I might be able to finish it off. I should set a goal for each day too because I'm running out of time now.

Good to hear you have Sunday off. Sounds like you could use a day off.

Re: Twisted -self care

I certainly could @CheerBear.
We all need a day off now and then 😊

Haven’t stopped yet ...,, just on pause waiting for one of my kids to get back to me about pick-up or not .....

Long tiring day @Catcakes ...... can you have a soak in a tub for a while ? It mucat be quite physically taxing as well.

Stopping by to say hello - missed yesterday as I had a nice day doing different stuff with my flat mate, so that was really nice for both of us.

@Catcakes glad to hear you're having a day off tomorrow, that will be most welcome I'm sure. and you baby blanket must be coming along nicely too. The target number of rows is a very good idea for when there's a time limit, clever daughter!

@Shaz51 @Appleblossom @CheerBear @Faith-and-Hope

Lovely to catch up on all your 'doings' and things.
Sorry, running out of time to get things sorted, can't talk as much as usual. (Probably a relief to some, that)

Pleasant night and tomorrow to you. I may not be around here tomorrow - don't cope with the wishes that will come with what tomorrow is.
