Re: I can’t cope
Taking it slowly is ok. You got yourself ahead yesterday! @Snowie
Im done now and have tried coloured resin. I don’t think it’s going to set right though. Plus they don't look very good

Hey @Captain24 ! How are you? The resin looks great! I can't wait to see the finished product!

Re: I can’t cope
Hey @tyme
It takes 14 hours to dry so it’ll be interesting if they turn out. Not sure I got the measurements right. It’s hard to mix the colours right.
I’m doing ok, I have done everything on my lists up until Tuesday. All I have to do is get some fresh veggies in the morning and get mum and dads present. Then I’m done until it’s all systems go on Tuesday.
How are you?

Re: I can’t cope
It's pretty sweet that you get each other pressies. It's cute. What are you getting them - let us in on the secret? (If not, that's totally okay).
As for resin, I have NO idea how to do it so I am amazed with anyone who does!
Let's see how it turns out. @Captain24

Re: I can’t cope
It’s nothing serious just a pair of shoes that mum needs and some new shorts that dad wants. @tyme. Pretty boring.
What did you get up to today?

Re: I can’t cope
Not much. Went to church in the morning, then came home and I minded some kids while they played outside. So it was my nieces and nephews, and 2 other local kids @Captain24
Otherwise, not much.

Re: I can’t cope
Sounds like a busy morning. Do you like looking after kids? @tyme
Do you have any plans for your time off?

Re: I can’t cope
I'll be going to church some days, and probably just hanging out with the kids in the pool @Captain24
Not much otherwise.
I think I just want to be at home. I'm usually out and about all the time and when things are closed, I am MADE to stay home.
Or what I can do is see if I can book in any outstanding appointments such as blood test results, dental drip, optometrist etc. These are things I don't usually get to do but I should do before the end of the year. Otherwise I would have wasted all the benefits from my health insurance.
Let's see how long I can cope with the kids before we all go off....
Oh, tomorrow, I'll be minding the kids in the morning while they play. It's okay, because they are pretty chill (as long as they don't fight!)

Re: I can’t cope
Sounds pretty cruisy @tyme. I hope you can make your appointments.
I haven’t used my benefits which is silly of me. Especially when I need three pairs of glasses!
Thats a lot of time with the kids! Will you get some ‘you’ time? Just some space in your own?
Will you be ok without routine?
Yes they are coasters.
