You’ve made some good points there. @TAB . People have issues of their own. I’m sorry to hear you are a bit down. sure sounds like you’ve got a lot happening for you.
I’ve got a lot of projects in my mind that I’m working on in my head. I’m having a quiet day because I think I’ve got a stomach bug. But I’ll be up soon to start on all these things I have in my mind.
I’ve got a filming session about BPD for a health company. I’m looking forward to that. It’ll be in early September. Then I’ve got some work to do for BPD Awareness week which runs in Oct.
In the meanwhile, I’m sorting out all my school projects that I have to prepare for the kids. We are having a robot Lego league competition soon, I’m also running and organising all the kinder/preschool visits and school transition programs…. So there’s a lot to do.
Myeh, just keep going and do what I can. At least I enjoy it and find it meaningful - that’s the main thing.

No I never bought refurbished phones either. All of mine were Nokias @TAB. I love using my PC however. I hope you get to meet people in your new job! I'm a bit like you not having people in my life for a variety of reasons. I don't go out and its hard to meet new people. Its been like this for a long time and many people on this forum are like us. I lost contact with my brother and sister-in-law things just did not work out. Had an old uni friend but wasnt ideal had to walk away. Been alone for years. Live in semi regional district, without car, no groups to get along to etc... So I understand but sometimes its better living without people who can make your life worse. Would welcome anyone who adds value to my life without the dramas!

Hi @Former-Member.
Yes I am enjoying the early lead into spring. Nice to see the buds on the flowers and on the trees. Still pretty cold where I am.
A bit cold for gardening.
The cheeky possums at my house are eating all the winter herbs eg.Parsley and I even saw one eating bids on the tree.
I love getting a bargain too. I work in an OP shop and got one nice dress for spring recently.
I am fairly new too Sane forums.
Enjoy your day smiling gecko 😊🌹

Welcome to the forums I hope you will enjoy your stay here @Former-Member. Working in an opshop is rewarding I used to work as a voluntary worker cashier for an opshop plus sorting clothes out the back of the shop. Many people on here have done the same. I hope you enjoy your garments for spring! I bought a few things which should be enough. Can't afford clothing really. It can put a bit of a dent in the budget lol. Yes today has been a nice day! Take care 🙂
