Re: Just checking in.
Been there with the single parenting thing @CheerBear . Hubby was working 100 + hour weeks, so I was it. ..... and there are days that you just feel like -
Reach for the little things ..... wrapping both hands around a hot cup of tea and staring at green flowering things ..... playing something gentle through earbuds, something that makes you breathe slowly ...... putting feet way, way up on 5 cushions and sliced cucumber or (cold) teabags on your eyes.
Hugs n hugs special bear .....
💜💐

Re: Just checking in.
I made soul soup, full of sweet corn (one of my faves), ginger, garlic etc. That will be my little thing tonight I think.
I hope today has been OK in your world ❤

Re: Just checking in.
Today has been a rollercoaster in my world for a variety of reasons. I am hiding out at uni at the mo, and might search for a coffee before going home. I have to take some art materials to a wonky baby dragon at home to finish an assignment with, so I have to actually go home at some point, but not yet ..... the art shop is open late tonight. I need some me time.
Can I share your soul soup ?
💕

Re: Just checking in.
Huge hugs @Faith-and-Hope ❤ Taking me time and hiding out for a bit sounds like a good idea. You do so much for those you love and they're all so lucky to have you.
If I could bring you real soul soup I would. Here's a virtual bowl of it for you instead
Lots of ❤

Re: Just checking in.
I printed what I need to but haven’t gone through it yet. @CheerBear . I had to set the new printer up first. The next two weeks are really going to be on a knifes edge. As from this afternoon things began.
I know you are in for a rough ride this week as well with lots of hard tiring kid stuff, with other things to work through as well. Love that you had soup. I made a big pot of minestrone up last night which was for tonight. Just now I’m thankful for that. I didn’t sleep much last night and think I’ll be counting down the hours until I can take meds to sleep. I’m such a lost cause without sleep 😯😳. I really wanted to do the paperwork tonight. Maybe soup will give me a lift.

@CheerBear I’m sure you just asked me for a ramble didn’t you? 😜😉
