The Weekly Friday Feast

Thanks @Jacques ,

that’s sweet of you to say. I have joined a knitting group that meets once a fortnight at a library and they do collaborative blankets for the children’s hospital. I tried that but found it too stressful having a time limit. So this way I just work on squares and take my time.

Hi @TAB , 

I am pretty good but have been a little stressed lately. I sent my best friend a text yesterday because she seems disinterested in talking to me when I ring. She is super busy with her life as she has an adult daughter with disabilities and she tutors as well. She is always super busy and so tired. I don’t want to be a nuisance so I don’t know what to do. I want to stay in contact but I think she thinks I ring too much. So at the moment I am backing off and giving her space. As I said she is my best and pretty much my only friend so it’s hard.

Also @TAB @Jacques 

I had my NDIS review on Tuesday so that was kind of stressful. Hopefully my plan comes out better this year.

Not easy @Oaktree  brother did busy think to me. Last time spoke i said dont apologise thats long gone I just dont talk to him anymore. Chased him for years.

School friend barely talks to me last 12mths i txt he rarely replies now. So i send less and less. Yes not easy

@TAB 

The thing is I have known my best friend for 24 years. We had a period of a few years where we didn’t talk because I stopped chasing her. She didn’t reach out to me at all during the break and she blames me for submarining. The thing is if I stop calling I know that she won’t call me. Is the friendship more important to me than it is to her? She is very generous with her money but I would rather have time.
