Re: rough time

🤞 with you for crochet bug too @outlander 🙂 You're inspiring me to pick something up again myself.

Not much on today. Kids and I have some big tidying up to do to get ready for school. Things like making sure they all have shoes that fit (big needs new ones), a uniform to have taken up, lunch boxes bits and pieces to organise etc. I'll have to get stuck into that soon I think.

The colours are lovely 🙂 I don't always feel exactly like the cheery cheer bear that is my name or the pink rainbow either, but in some ways I like having it there as a reminder that it is still there too (if that makes sense). Maybe your new pic can be a reminder of a similar thing for you too? ❤

Re: rough time

i hope you do pick something up @CheerBear i like watching yours progress and how you talk about your projects too.

ah yes the joys of making sure everyone has everything they need huh. big here has everything except new school shirts which we usually buy from the shcool as its alot cheaper for the exact same shirt as in lowes stores. so we stock up when the school shops open a day or 2 before they return and little is in need of more well everything since shes gone through a growth spurt and now barely any of her uniforms fit 😕
but they got bags and lunch boxes etc at christmas time so made things easier that way as well.

my pic is actually the sun coming up over earth so i guess its a timley reminder that the sun will rise again. i was attracted to it esp for those colours.

This time can be bonkers for school stuff @outlander! Even with Big's scholarship I've had to find big $ that's hurting. They're quite big too so shoes are proving a little hard to find. The little two don't need much (except for some encouragement to clean up 😉) but some lunch gear wouldn't hurt. Today might be a good day to do it with everyone else off at bbqs etc.

Thanks for your encouragement with the crafty stuff.

Love the idea of the sun rising again 💗 It will. Nothing is forever except forever

Re: rough time

yes it sure is bonkers! the kids have used their stuff for a while now plus they tend to use their bags for like day trips and stuff as well so they are getting well used so time for a change now.
some schools esp their uniform prices can be abit ridiculous though i must say! the joys of older kids though is they dont need their uniforms replaced constantly lol.
I kinda miss school though, as hard as it was.

hmm they are expensive but maybe somewhere like footlocker or a speciality shoe shop would help (they tend to get free foot assessments too)

thank you for always encouraging my crafty stuff too, ive learnt lots from you even though ive not done much except sqaures!

yes that is true, Nothing is forever

Hi @outlander, how are you going?

Re: rough time

Thankyou so much for being there for me last night @outlander 💜💖 You’re the best.

I’m not feeling well at all today. Hmm 🤔 I wonder why?

I think the scotch will get poured down the sink. It feels like drinking poison to me.

Thankyou @CheerBear for your message. Much appreciated. 💖💜

With all that goes on lately, I don’t think I could concentrate on crocheting. I wish I could. I used to enjoy it. Thanks for offering again.

I hope yours and @outlander s day is going well.

Its lovely to catch up with you and outlander. I’ve missed chatting. I get insecure at times and don’t want to intrude on conversations. But I’m getting better with self esteem. It’s about time, lol.

☕️🍰 I was even too ill to have my morning coffee and only just had one now.

😘
