Today I aim to finish a crochet order....I've been procrastinating over the past couple of days.
Not sure what I’m going to do with this. Brain isn’t braining very well today.

The DWD teams, here and on the Facebook page. They’ve been awesome and so supportive over the past couple of weeks, and I would have had a total meltdown without them :)

You're stronger than you give yourself credit for. Suzi would be so proud of you (panda)
Thank you, lovely (blush)
I did this a lot yesterday. Got a bit soppy after spending time with a couple of friends from the darts team.
Sorry, I’ve been a bit lax on this recently!

Today, I’m grateful for the blessing of being Suzi’s friend (not that that’s a small thing, but I’m cheating)

I’m grateful for my darts teams. They may not fully understand where I’m at but at least they try and fill in the gaps when I’m struggling.

Can I do it from inside?? Bucketing here!!(rofl)
I’m taking advantage of the weather here to clean out the junk in my car. Been meaning to do it for ages. It’s nice hearing the birds singing.

Bright sunshine here! So I will go and hang the washing out and check on A's plants.
I may consider going for a short walk with the dogs, but I’m not promising anything ;)
If it’s as pleasant down your way as it is here it’s perfect for a nice walk with the puppers.

Oh and, to me, DWD counts as your local community ;)
I don’t think I can manage that today but I will try to achieve something this week.

Finishing my end of module assessment. That's definitely meaningful!
Failed miserably here. Unless giving Talia loads of birthday cuddles counts?

Absolutely one of the biggest, for me, is being able to contribute to DWD
I really need a helping hand with this one. Struggling to see any good in myself at the moment.

1. My sister’s grave. She was still born with spina bifida. My mum nearly died giving birth to her. Despite all this, we love her and my family has never forgotten that she is part of our family.
2. A Love letter my grandad wrote to my gran when he was a prisoner of war in Burma, in awful conditions, starving and mistreated.
3. I spent 9 months stitching this picture (every day) of my parents on their wedding day for their Ruby Wedding Anniversary - in the middle of possibly the biggest MH crisis I’ve ever had. It was 70,000 stitches in total and I still don’t know how I managed it!

My best buddy. I was reluctant to take this little lady on at first through fear of letting her and her former owners down. Now I’d be lost without her. I love this old girl so much
I don’t have much to be proud of but being able to say I was a part of the team making a major sporting event happen is something I hope will make my kids proud of me.
The only thing I wanted when my mum passed. A certificate from the News of the World she got for hitting a 180 in the local darts league. It was 1958, and believe me scoring a maximum well these big brass barrels back in the day was quite an achievement. I I’d t know when I took up the sport that my mum used to play. One of the few things we had in common.

Oof! This is a tough one.
1. Being part of the volunteer team at the Rugby League World Cup.
2. Represented Worcestershire County Darts Team.
3. Fought hard for the people I care about, both family and friends, and although the outcome hasn’t always been positive I keep trying cos I refuse to give up on them.

That is one of the best things I’ve heard this week!

Sorry I don’t know why I didn’t see this. My friends worry about their pets getting the right care while they are away has been an issue and being able to relieve that stress in way I couldn’t imagine means soooooo much.

Not today, but once we've got a new shed (ours is knackered) we're turning the bit behind into a secret wildlife garden. A has already painted a birdhouse and a bug hotel to go back there.

"Life is 10% what happens to you, and 90% how you react to it". Charles R. Swindoll.
I have two, one you’ve heard many times from me…
“Sometimes you have to take a leap of faith first, the trust part comes later.”
The other quote related to Superman that seems fitting right now…
“I believe in second chances, I believe in redemption, but, mostly, I believe in my friends.”
Day 31:

- my lovely husband, who I will be married to 22 years on Friday. Here's to next 22.
- my gorgeous daughter. Many, many years ago a wise woman told me to listen to the small things, because they will then come with the big things. I've been told that she tried alcohol at the party on Friday, but she didn't like it.
- my friends here and in rl. The last couple of months have been pants, but this has been a safe place to off load. I hope it will be here for a long time to come.
