Hey, so this friend of mine was saying she feels totally invisible, and it kinda made me think about everyone here. Seriously, how are you guys actually doing? Like, for real?
I know we’re all busy with our crafts and stuff, trying to make cool things, but sometimes it’s good to just check in, you know? Asking “Are you okay?” might seem small, but it can actually help a lot. It’s like, knowing someone cares enough to ask if you’re struggling can take off some of the pressure. We’re all in this crafting thing together, so let’s try to look out for each other. A simple “You good?” can go a long way.
Mental health is a jerk I made a post in the past about it too. It’s easy to replay your fine and just let it be that. I know right now I am keeping my head in the sand because I have a angiogram on Wednesday and I am not looking forward to it at all but it’s a needed medical test so I have been anxious cleaning yesterday was a bit of a day and so more trash cause I get in the sew it mode and thow out things that have been sitting around unused. My trash can is pretty full for Wednesday pick up and I still have today and tomorrow to toss more items.
This is such a thoughful topic zannX honestly im a bit overwhelmed but not exactly by anything other than my own brain. I have adhd so sometimes that makes me feel like every task is super unmanageable and im also a mom of 2 toddlers so that takes up a lot of my time. I find little moments when I can have time to myself to get work done but often wish it was more. Anyways today I decided to organize my brain a bit and make a list. lists help me very much but I often think everything is fine until im back to making my very needed lists. Thank you for letting me release this by typing out how I really feel at the moment. how are you feeling zannx?
Im sorry for what youre going through medical wise judi, I hope youre able to find a moment to relax and unwind. I know so much is going on but take it bit by bit and hopefully crafting something you love can help you feel at ease for even just a moment
I am hoping to make something more then just putting a design together but I am working or trying to sell what tumblers I have made so I have room to make more and also just gifting some to random strangers cause why not. But I am a professional at outeordly not shooing what’s going on lol. I look normal but am far from it. I have a not so fun disease called Moya Moya disease (fun one to look up)and it comes in its own things I deal with I may not look like I have had strokes but have plenty of issues.
i appreciate you for sharing a vulnerable feeling I know that can be hard to do. you’ve been through so much but always keep such a loving heart towards others. youre very strong
I’m feeling under the weather today, and I want to create something because I’m slowly losing my spark. I just want to take a little while to recover. I didn’t even ask myself how I was until my friend called. Then I said to myself, “I know I’m not okay, but how about the others?” I feel like I need to ask because our problems may not be the same, but we all need someone to talk to.
I hope after some needed rest your spark lights back up. its always in you but sometimes we need to give it some much needed rest to think up new amazing things
