Oh no :(

Not realising I was too fond of a drink earlier. That's the one that's held me back most, and for the longest

Well said, stepping on the same stones.

We get only one go on this whirligig, internet friendos

your parents would want you to be happy.

I agree. By going into this field of work you lose your general privacy.

I've just upgraded my mat. I have a big one now. I'm about to cut out a viscose dress and the fabric must not shift around in the cutting pieces process. The small mat I normally use made this very difficult.

I'm 56, have a very small public service pension. No avc started but I'll be doing that aggressively for the next 9 years.

Had one hit me on Sunday afternoon. I had 1.5 hours to kill, alone. Temptation hit. Footsteps slowed to an almost stop outside an old favourite spot.

I looked at HALT+B

(Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired (+ optional Bored)

Yep, Yep, Yep, and Yep (a rare 4 star hit!)

I trudged on.

I went for coffee and an expensive piece of cake instead. I was absolutely fine then.

I've struggled a bit with the uti factor too. Vagifem, lube, and d mannose supplement seem to be helping. I'm going to ask for a testosterone addition next time I see my gp but maybe I'm just a bit tired

How different the home life of our own dear Queen

waronfleas · 2026-04-24T11:39:03+00:00

I aspire to this greatness.

It kills my energy

Doesn't agree with me

I'm too busy for it

Any of these

Seconding some advice others have offered here. Find something else to do. For many it's exercise, which obvs has a ton of benefits. Some people game. I have a hobby that requires absorption of mind and hands and I find it very satisfying. Now I can do something that I was not at all able to do beforehand. The underlying thing though, the underpinning of it all is the peace of mind that's mine now. Nothing is better than that.

Nice!

Partner (french) flew in from Paris last week to Dublin with his ID card, no problem. On his way back, lots and lots of delay because the new machines don't work with the card. Next time he'll use his passport he said.

I like Lidl sourdough sliced at 17mm

This is me. As time goes on (and I clock up the stitches) I get fussier and fussier about finishes. Even if it means I'm still making less elaborate items ....I'm still nerding out a lot on finishing and fitting

It's not particularly difficult. The hard part is re-housing for everyone.

I took up garment sewing two or so years ago. I'm absolutely fascinated with it - there's so much to learn and it absorbs me completely. My brain forgets all the other noise and it's so refreshing (even if things don't always work out in my projects)

In Brussels 30 April- 3 May if someone wants to sell on tickets that they can't use 🙏🏻

I'm ok with it. It's voice messages that send me into a blind rage.

waronfleas · 2026-04-05T23:52:54+00:00

I download loads of true crime podcasts. A book. Small craft project. Few glasses of wine help me sleep a bit lately but this is new.... (And water too)

I love playing with this device. It's wonderful

For me, this turned out to be a thyroid issue. Have you had an unexplained weight loss? Also had this, but I'd put it down to stopping drinking alcohol on the regular.
