Hahaha @Zoe7 .... sooo cute ❣️ Missing you and being here too, but I am having to work to deadlines. Gotta keep swimming .... 💦
Thanks so much @eth 🌷
So good to see you @utopia , but not so good that you will miss your neice's wedding ..... still, they would have been expecting it I'm sure, under your health conditions and the current COVID-19 conditions.
I have already started isolation one of my baby dragons, and that might mean not visiting the western ones for a while .... which is heartbreaking but probably necessary.
I am up to my ears in legal mess myself, cos WH can be relied upon to be obnoxious at the moment, including all over the separation process .... :face_with_rolling_eyes:😡
My art course is bringing me joy though .....

I understand @Faith-and-Hope - still up to my eyes in everything here too. There is a little added pressure also with students being away and having to catch them up or re-arrange groups to accommodate those absences on the run. We have been told that we do not need to arrange work for those absent students but if parents request it then I am organising it (so a little extra work but I don't want those kids to fall even further behind). I don't feel like I have an off switch right now - and I suspect you feel the same Long days and late nights again for now but we have to do what we have to do hey 👍
I hope the legals and obnoxiousness of WH eases soon for you but am so glad you have your studies and bds there with you. It is disappointing that you cannot travel to see your married bds but no doubt they understand - especially with D2 and having to isolate her for her health.
I am very much missing you but know you are always with me 💖 as I am with you Give Nelly a pat from me and a hi to the baby dragons too 😺🐲

Good-ish @Zoe7
One of my classes was cancelled today, and an assignment extended to next week that was due in today, which took some pressure off. I am really pleased about that, because we are being asked to ever to our own work, and I have unfinished pieces ..... but I will now work towards finishing them across the week and be able to included them completed 👍
I als went to Bunnungs yesterday 😏 .... for some art supplies, but also household organisational gear. I have finally gotten stuck into trying to sort some order into this place, even though my lounge room now looks like a rubbish tip with all the displaced stuff piled in there ..... so I started into my laundry cupboards last night, and my wardrobe from the night before, and what I have got done within that time is starting to look and feel like home in a way that I haven't felt since we moved here two years ago now.
Having the cancelled class, and skipping out on another one tonight cos I forgot the time 🤭 ..... I have decided to just keep going with what I want to do, and not worry about any other commitments for now. I have taken myself out for a drink and chillax on my way home from the chemist on foot ..... and there is some lovely music playing somewhere nearby, and a lovely breeze. When I get back I am going to use a waterless wash spray thingy I found in the laundry cupboard to wash the car I have been landed with 😡 cos it looks like :pile_of_poo: ..... and that will probably take up the whole bottle, but I didn't buy it anyway ...... and at least I can have a clean car. Then I will start emptying it of what I bought yesterday that I was too tired to lug upstairs and put away .... including a set of steps for things I can't reach to sort and clean ..... so that will probably give me incentive to keep going with that stuff too .....
I am just going to give in to the organising / cleaning bug for the moment, and see how much else of home I can find in the next day or so, just picking it all apart, one piece of :pile_of_poo: after another until I rub out of oomph.

haha you sound like me over the last holidays @Faith-and-Hope but I am soooo happy to hear you are making this place more of a home for yourself. This is one positive out of all the shite - finally you can have a home and life around you that you that is yours ....that makes me incredibly happy for you 😀
Whilst you are washing 'your' car you are most welcome to come and do mine also - it is a shade of brown but I know under there somewhere is white lol It is supposed to rain tomorrow so maybe I can head outside and wash it under the rain LOL
I love that you are taking time to do things for yourself - other things unless urgent can wait ...time to take care of you Hon
