So true @Jynx life can improve

Thankyou 

[Faith-and-Hope]

I use Kintsugi as a theme in some of my artwork @Former-Member ...... a reminder that we are perfectly imperfect ..... and "repair by gold" represents making "broken" things more beautiful through tender care and valuing them.

So glad you reached out Hon ..... I value knowing you ❣️

@Faith-and-Hope Just ordered my sister's Christmas present so all but Dad's present ordered now ...am going to have to move my sleep study appointment to save that money but I think it would be better later in the holidays when everything has died down anyway. Still no idea what to get Dad but will continue my search as and when I can.

I have also done a bit of the organising of the kids Art work - now just need time to put it all together but if I do 4 classes tonight and tomorrow then I can do 2 each evening this week and have them all done by Friday (that is the present plan anyway).

It is raining quite heavily tonight so I don't think I will be able to do much at my parents' place tomorrow so that will also give me more time. I will visit and do what I can to help inside - maybe vacuum, change the bed for Mum and make sure all the washing is done (can use their dryer0 and see if they need any shopping done. Dad is a really good cook so that is covered.

Hugs @Former-Member ..... I am sorry h is not supporting you well.  Sending gentle thoughts your way Hon ..... float when you are too tired to swim, and keep looking after you ❣️

Wishing you good rest tonight @Zoe7.  You are getting though your gifts list, and I hope you manage your school commitments tomorrow ..... please conserve a little energy where you can in helping your parents ..... remember to "put on your own oxygen mask first" ....,

[Faith-and-Hope]

Packing deferred until tomorrow @Zoe7.  A friend who was going to visit can't make it, so I have all day.  I have been piling things all week, so it's half done anyway 😏.
