A long rave

[eth]

Hi @CheerBear  I hope your appointments go really well today and you are able to get clear on current goals with the MH worker.  Glad my suggestions might help with that.

I'm ok this morning - so far it looks like catching up on washing, planting out basil seedlings and maybe getting on the exercise bike and having a shower.  Plus I'm cooking for 3 tonight.  I think I'll do potato and leek soup with gremolata and seeded bread rolls.  I was going to do a frittata but sil did a spinach and fetta one last night and it's too similar.  

It's a beautiful day here too - proper spring weather.  My sweet peas have started to flower.

Hi to you too @Exoplanet

[CheerBear]

Sounds like a nice day ahead for you @eth. I often haven't even heard of some of your cooking words and food but that sounds yum! Great about your sweet peas 😊

I have a little greenhouse and we planted some seeds in trays for it recently after putting beds in the vegetable garden. I have just watered them and found so many have started to come up. It's a bit exciting! I'd definitely be in the garden today if I didn't have other things on.

Better run. Hope there's plenty of good in your day 🙂

Lots of love to you, sorry you had a raggedy nights sleep but I still think your slowly but steadily improving Home feels quite good, it kind of feels the same - it always feels like it wasn't real, I didn't really go . . . but I know I did & that's just me 🙂 I'm actually pretty impressed that my sleep pattern seems to have slotted back into place without any hic-ups, maybe a little later, but nothing dramatic 🙂 Yep, the netting is finished & the little dog can't get out anymore 🙂 🙂 🙂 The boundary fence should be getting done in October, I have that all arranged too 😄 {I'm so looking forward to having a real gate! 🙂 } I've got my old obsession back, searching google for new camp spots 🙂 I've got 2 spots up my sleeve now, there's the one from last year that was private & when I went there, I was the only one 🙂 Might return to that one next? But my longing for new 'wake ups' has been renewed, so I'll let myself enjoy dreaming on google as well 🙂 Good luck getting some housework done & a pat on the back for the housework you've achieved 🙂 Glad you got out for that walk & yee haa on the $5 bargain : Congratulations on the future screenings of your video, I think it's perfect timing to be doing some written & visual material for those things to happen ❤️

Sorry to hear your having sleep challenges, I have very little doubt that is has to do with the stress of everything that's going on at the moment. Glad to hear your Mum is improving to the bossy stage 🙂 . . . always a good sign 🙂 Another visit to hospital, where she is well looked after, might not be the worst thing. One step at a time, with all the things to do, at a pace that you can manage with the phyical problems. You never need to be sorry my friend Sending lots of love

From little things, big things grow 🙂

Hello @eth & @CheerBear 

Things grow so much better with the support of roots in all directions, it takes a lot for just one little stem, particularly once it has branches & leaves. Your doing great, your growing straight & tall, & you will blossom beautifully when the season is right for you

Beautiful words thankyou @Exoplanet  Hope today is going well for you so far.

Good morning to you too @Teej xx

@Exoplanet thank you for your lovely post. ❤ to you.

Yum @eth! That's not what I was thinking it would be. Sounds good 🙂 Love the colours in your photo.

Morning @CheerBear, @eth, @Exoplanet, @Mazarita and whoever else is around. Just dropping by to say hi and that I’ve loved reading all your last adventures. 

I really loved your your camping trip @Exoplanet. 💜

Im having a really flat teary day today so won’t say too much because there are so many positives here. 

I have ave also been growing some veggies and herbs from seeds. I’ve had mixed results. None of the basil grew but the seeds were out of date. Lots of lettuce and bok choy, some sage, coriander and dill. All looking a little sad for themselves but surviving. They were doing very well on my windowsill until a young magpie flew in and got trapped at my kitchen window and I had to catch it and release it outside. In the process it knocked off my container with the emerging seedlings and they crashed everywhere. I’ve managed to salvage most and they are outside now as it’s a bit warmer. 

Wishing everyone a kind and gentle day. 💜🤗

That's the big thing I love about our forums here, everyone is going through all sorts of difficult situations, that sometimes we can't see positive impacts in our lives, but here we get so much encouragement and lovely pictures, and the little things we do or say can make a difference, reading all the posts, mother nature is all around us as you have all shown just little things that have happened on here. 

I am so very grateful to everyone on here, how much it can change the way i feel sometimes in my deepest hard moment
