Re: Sleeping too much
Hi @Former-Member and everyone ....
Good morning ....😊☕️
I haven't read back through the posts from last night, but just wanted to say ....
It's my D3's last day of high school ..... we made it ❣✅🌷💜
Next hurdle is the WACE - passing the entry requirements for uni ..... butcha know what ?? I only needed her to graduate .... if she doesn't get over the uni entry bar this year ..... not fussed ..... she can take it from here herself ... and take however long she wants to take, of that's what she even wants to do ❣
Thank you so much for riding these waves with me. Doesn't solve the WH issues by a long shot, but I have D3 sorted well enough that whatever happens now with WH, I'm not compromising her to stand by him ..... 😔
And yes ..... 🖐🏼 op-shop and bargains bin over-shopper here ..... have changed clothing sizes up and down 2 - 3 sizes in the last 10 years with MbS .... clothes are my art .... unashamedly overstocked and lovin' it .... ❣ I put the brakes on my asking myself .... "Do I REALLY need another one of these ? It's so similar to what I've already got .... better leave it for someone else who needs it more than I do .... ". Hope that helps @Former-Member
Gotta dash ..... stay cool everyone .... 💜💐💜💐💜💕

Re: Sleeping too much
@Peppi Patty..I'm sorry I've more time.
This morning I passed by a homeless man who's well known enough here.
He mostly lives on the beach, probably gets taken in for a night here & there by agencies.
He has one dog now, nice natured, kind & patient..just like him.
Whenever I see this man, he's gathering a few small things at supermarket, or throwing a ball to his dog,reading, causing no harm to anyone or dropping into pub for a can of something.
No doubt afflicted in some way, he chooses homelessness as 'his way'.
One time he got a heap of chocolates from vending machine and gave freely to my boy's on passing him at the supermarket.
Wasn't looking for anything in return, just a kind thought said that I can't remember & a smile in his eyes.
I feel saddened that people play judge & jury so freely.
Like they know another's suffering because they present as X,Y or z.
It's not necessarily how one presents, it's more about the realness of the person.
This man waived hello to my son + I, kept on reading, think he said don't worry you will know me!
I was struck by his good looks for a homeless man, character showing in his face.
Some don't tell a story so freely.
It's lived rather than told!
Maybe I felt sadness. Maybe I should work in welfare. Maybe I felt compelled to check he was ok, had enough food. I didn't need a packet of biscuits if it meant he had food to eat.
I think this man kind of made my day..
People can judge. But if you remain who you are, with all your quirks intact...isn't this how we are meant to be?!
On my day goes!! Lol

Re: Sleeping too much
@Faith-and-Hope, another opshopaholic kindred spirit (we are many!), and "leave it for someone who needs it more, hmm, good thought. Think also, as an excuse, i see spending at op shops as also donating to charity - the stuff often bounces back anyway. And PTL! CONGRATULATIONS! Not just for for D3 but for you, for silently pushing that barrow uphill, with all the other stuff on your back. You did good! Excellent Mum! Hope you physically feel that worry fly off now. Give D3 a hug from us. 💜🌷💜🌷💜🌷💕
Hi to everyone else, will check in later
Be kind to yourself and each other today.
☕❤💜😊 💙💜🙏

@Former-Member
All we can do is walk on - I have rough mornings - even if there is nothing to do that day that required my urgent attention I still have trouble facing the day - but - it wears off
Still - you have daily issues you can't ignore - and walking on instead of walking away is hard but better - you have faith enough to believe it will never be too much because God has promised us that
Thinking of you - still wonder how you do it in continuing perfect storms of events
Sending hugs
Decadian
