hope everyone is doing okay so far today and that the day is as nice as it can possibly be to us within all of our circumstances, thinking of you all and so grateful to have found this community at a time where I probably need it more than ever 💗
@Appleblossom sending you kindness and gentle hugs, I hope you can find some comfort knowing even just going out to do these things while dealing with such heavy feelings means you’re giving today your absolute best

Thanks @lonemushroom
I really appreciate that. I am having mixed feelings. It’s ok if I just focus on my relationship with my own children.
I know it’s a challenging day for many. Be kind to yourselves today!

I'm glad you ahd some solid distractions today @Appleblossom
I also distracted myself by going to a fund-raising event for breast and ovarian cancer (although it did rain the whole time, so I was soaked) so a good distraction,
I was lonely when I got home. But. here I am

Hey @Till23 good to see you.... Soaked.... Relays can be great. I did them mostly in my teens and then with my brother towards the end of his life.
Grateful for being here, even if I have big decisions ahead. Trying to make sense of my crazy life. We had blue skies here.
@lonemushroom hey! Sometimes it is just getting through it ...
@Oaktree @MissinTooth thanks friends

It wasn't a relay @Appleblossom I was the community ambassador for the event so cheering people home, starting them off, drawing raffles etc the participants were running or walking (as was I) and we were all raising money. It was definitely out of my comfort zone.
I tried not to think about my crazy life while I was out, but a pretty lonely home coming, nothing new there though, just seems a bit harder today.
Good luck with upcoming decisions
