Good Morning!

[Appleblossom]

@MDT The really good thing about yesterday was, that I made the most of all the resources I have, and did not slip into any dysfunctional behaviours, even tho pressure was big.

My resources being .... my home my car, my finances, friends irl and online, my mind and organisational skills, negotiating food during covid etc ... food prep .... negotiating with his care team.  The pressures being keeping a good home going for my son, even while I am physically ill.  I can do that, but I get weary ... 

I even had a big emotional release watching one show ... about a mother in grief ... and then a laugh watching another... and apparently another forumite @StuF has my sense of humour ... so I actually got to share about it online ... AND feel connected ...

when I was a kid ... I never had tv til too late .. and had no clue what kids at school were on about talking tv ... so there I have done a lot of PSYCHOSOCIAL catch up ...

Hope your days goes well mates  ... it helps me keep hope, for my son to have you guys to chat to ...Apple

Hi @Appleblossom ,

I have seen you around too 🙂 thankyou for the welcome, that is very kind. Hope things improve for you. I'm a bit down myself.

Hi @MDT , thankyou also for the welcome! Great to say hello.

Hey @maddison thanks for the intro and giving everyone info about yourself.  We'll get to know you a bit better as time goes along.  Empath is good but can also be a curse I have learned.  I used to be quite sensitive 😊 I hope you enjoy interacting with us all here on this thread. Its a nice bunch of interesting folks who post all kinds of things!

Good evening forumites. I hope your Sunday has gone well! 

@maddison I’m so glad you enjoy crocheting! I’ve started a new granny square crochet blanket this afternoon after picking up my 4.25mm crochet hook and finding some yarn to start a blanket on. I’ve found myself to be feeling quite happy and calm whilst working on the blanket and I think my mental health has improved slightly as I don’t feel as depressed as I did on Thursday or Friday which is a positive sign. I’ve also had my essential oil diffuser on in my room whilst I’ve been crocheting with a blend and I think that’s also helped with my mood. 

@Shaz51 I hope you’ve got some better weather up where you are and that you are feeling cooler!

Take care!

Judi9877☺️💐

That's fascinating re space weather @Former-Member 

The Bureau of Meteorology also has Space Weather Services 

It seems really complex.

Maybe our level of stupidity is not organic 

Hello Good Morning thread

Hope your day and night are kind to you.

I got into space weather as I noticed other people passing commentary and benefitting from it @frog.  I thought it may be good to get into it to just see and make my own personal observations.  Thanks for providing the Bureau of Meteorology link! They seem to get their reports from the USA 💗
