Thread: Hi everyone

    Hi everyone

    Hi there,
    It's been a while since I posted anything so I thought I would wave and say hi.
    I shocked myself this morning when I managed to tip a whole teapot of boiling water over my knee/leg. I recognise that this is a sign I need to slow things down! Life has been very busy with end of term stuff and eldest going on her first abroad trip (which I know I have been anxious about)
    I do think I am more accepting of my mental health condition now.. I am never going to be someone who can take on a lot of different things at one time & stress has to be kept to a minimum. I'm ok with that and I am enjoying life and having more fun these days!
    I recognise how far I have come since my darkest, scariest times of severe depression. If you are reading this and are in that zone at the current time then please hang in there, life does get better and joy does return.
    Arty xx

    Hi sweetie Do you need to see a dr about your knee?
    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 went to A&E straight after it happened so it has been looked at, thanks.
    I'm taking it steady again today. I am using the time to catch up on some crochet and write a few lists

    Thanks Suzi. I'm just starting my third 'Attic 24' blanket. They use the same stitch over and over again so even if I am struggling I can still do them I've started going back to a crochet group too also my paints are out!

    Morning, lovely. How are you?
    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.

    Thank-you for your concern my friends. I am still taking things very steady.
    Lovely that you know of Attic 24 Suzi. I am making my second Cosy Stripe blanket. It is so simple but looks wonderful when completed. x
