Mira's best bits and pieces.

Thanks, I am trying to get my home looking more and more like it did when the house was built. That means back to the '30s I am sitting on the couch in this picture and I love that there is not a tv in sight

[Suzi]

I'm loving your chair!

Hey Mira, it's great you're keeping busy as distraction is often the best medicine for mental health, especially if it's a distraction that gives you a sense of purpose. That's something I've always struggled with as I'm often alone in my room.

You should look into a meetup group in ur town. I know that's cliche advice but it gives you a sense of belonging & the events are varied. I've been to 3 so far (open mic night, quiz night & recently for drinks). The meetup app is brilliant & really popular .

[Mira]

I know what you mean, i have the same. If i am not at my mums I am alone most of the time. And i dont seem to find anything to distract me.

I looked into meet up. But sadly its not around in my area. Well not anything interesting. Most are in Rotterdam but tjats a 3 hour trip so thats a bit to far.

[Suzi]

Are there any social groups around you? What about going back to bowling?

[Flo]

I love your art deco stuff! Is that an orchid I see in the background? If so, I have one the same colour. I've had it a year now and it's still going. I'm not green fingered and most plants just die on me! Suzi's suggestion of bowling is a great idea. You could probably join a team. I used to be quite good at it, but haven't bowled for years.

[Mira]

Thanks Flo, I love that period as well. I want my whole house like that. Yes that is a orchid. I do not have it that long but its still doing well. My fingers are no where near green. So I am always looking out for plants that are indestructible for my non green fingers haha.

Because of Suzi's idea I sent a whatsapp to my old team mate. He still bowls and I want to meet again. Not going to go back to bowling just yet but maybe see a few matches? I can already get angry at myself now when I think that I will no where near get to my old average. So maybe its not for me. But seeing the old team members might do me good.

[Paula]

That’s great! Well done

[Suzi]

Oh wow! I hope you have a great time! It's amazing that you sent that message! I'm so proud of you!

[Strugglingmum]

That's fantastic. It's good to meet up.
