    Really good to hear
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    I too love crochet. I first picked it up from here the original dwd page. Then I self taught myself. I find it really helps to distract and calm my mind. I just made dd a scarf which I'm really proud of. She doesn't really want to wear it but I'm still pleased I made it. What things do you like to make.

    I have made a couple of blankets, toys, scarves and recently a Xmas wreath. At the moment I am knitting a cowl. I agree with you re: calming the mind. If you like to read, have a look at ‘Crochet saved my life:The mental and physical health benefits of crochet’.

    Hi my friends, today has been a really good day. This morning I met a really good friend for a cuppa and then took my fabulous children ice skating (with a friend each) My Mum & I watched them & were so proud of the individuals they have become. I feel calm tonight and am going to catch up with some TV and crochet. Hope you are all ok too x

    Today is the day the kids go to their Dad for Xmas. I can feel myself getting mentally tired so although I will miss them, I think the break will do me good. Once again, I must say how great it is for people to have DWD to support them over Xmas. I think there is a lot of pressure on people to look and feel happy. Talking really helps

    I hope that you'll be okay while the kids are with their dad. It sounds like you will have enough to keep you busy for the next few days.
