That is so lovely!

I make quilts and baby toys, but as I could never get the hang of a sewing machine I hand see. I also do cross stich and knit .... Lots of stuff. Only when I am well enough though.

hi fibropop thank you 😊 I wished. I could do cross stich ,and patchwork by hand is time consuming well done 😊 I'm not good at hand stich Hehe i dread putting on the bindings. Julie

hi just peachy thank you 😊 ,my sisters say I have a talent,I get it from my mum, she made curtains but I found it boring lol So I got myself into some patchwork and making dolls and soft furnishing I've been doing this about 5 year now on and off as the depression and anxiety. Get me down.Julie xx

[Hidden]

Damn that depression and anxiety. It gets me down too. When it does I try very hard to find the good in life. More often than not it is something small or ridiculous about myself. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. Occasionally I will make lists of things I'm grateful for(in my mind) I am grateful I don't have a wart on my nose, my apologizes if you do. I am grateful for my grandson who can roll his eyes around in different directions at the same time. This is true, I'm thinking show biz someday.I am certainly grateful for this forum. Pam

hi just-peachy yes it's a living nightmare with the anxiety and depression,I find it really hard to get out.so I can imagine how you must feel it awful 😑 my boy is 20 he was diagnose With ADHD when he was 7 years of age, I had to give up work because I was getting. Phone calls from the school nearly every Day and said they can't cope with him and told me to start picking him up from school at 1 o clock ,it was over a year before they took him back fall time.and no I not got a wart on my nose hehe😝 your grandson sound lovely I bet he keeps you on your feet bless him hehe. Julie☺

[Hidden in reply to juJu43]

I have to commit on the ADHD. I taught art K-8 so I had some students with it and I found if I let them move around a specific area they did much better. Staying stationary was impossible for some. I found the schools here in the US don't want to deal with it so they send them home or try to get parents to have them medicated. It must have been so difficult for you and your son.Glad you are wartless, Pam

[juJu43 in reply to Hidden]

he's adhd made me worse with my ocd by ringing he's phone 40 times a day and if I got an answer the anxiety would go away for a bit and if he didn't answer I will panic 2 it gets to a point I'm sick and having the bad thoughts Off my son Is dead . I just me and my son to have a normal life. There are some good days, i have a loving. Family too.julie
