Re: A long rave

@CheerBear, yay for the return of school! (Easy to say now that I don't have to go there!)

Yesterday was good. Productive creatively. Also some good sleep chunks, catching up. Woman Happy

Today will probably be more of the same. Still finding it hard to get out of the flat and the aircon this summer. I'm sweating before I make it to the front gate. After that, it's just sweat and more sweat, streams of it, to a mad degree. When I was in the country town last week, it was ridiculous. So embarrassing having to deep wiping my face every two seconds at the house of my friend and collaborator. The other friend I visited there had aircon, a relief.

Re: A long rave

@Mazarita 🙂 things are great thanks Mazzy. I am going to take my son2 to the movies tonight as a treat to see the Clint Eastwood movie The Mule. He has never been out late so it will be a very exciting night for him :). 

How are you faring this morning?

Re: A long rave

@Mazarita Is the sweating menopause related? or is it the medicines that you are on?  I think everyone is sweating more than usual because of the heat. Personally I think you probably looked like you had a beautiful glow about you than sweating 🙂

Re: A long rave

@Mazarita@CheerBear Ladies I am about to crash. Great talking to you both. Particularly Mazzy am missing your long raves. Do you think you could post some up for the pea to read :). Love gp xxxxxx

Re: A long rave

I'm good this morning, @Bunniekins. Been awake for about three hours after two and a half hours sleep. Will get some more before long though. Not worrying too much about the lack of order in my sleep at the moment, just taking it when it comes. It wouldn't do anything to worry about it too much anyway, so might as well go with the flow for now.

The Mule looks interesting. Hope you and Son2 enjoy it, and the later night, heaps. Woman Happy

I think the sweating is probably menopause plus the anti-depressant I'm on. My psychologist tells me she sees a number of people on the same one, and that most of us stream sweat if she doesn't have her aircon on full. But it never used to do this to me before. I've been on it for years. So there has to be something else going on too now. The heat here is not that bad, nothing like what others have been getting this season, though still warm and humid, as usual, for this time of year in this sub-tropical zone. 

Thanks for the beautiful glow image in your mind. In reality, my face probably looks more like a tap running over a tomato. Smiley LOL

Re: A long rave

Nightie night, @Bunniekins (just as the first light is in the sky here). Sleep well. Long raves are likely to return at some future moment. Heart

Re: A long rave

Thanks again @Bunniekins for your reassurance 🙂 Great that your son managed to find his people at school. Hope you and S2 have an awesome. Sounds really exciting!

Feeling for you with the discomfort of summer where you are @Mazarita. I'd much prefer the heat we have here than the heat plus humidity you have there!

Did your article get published? Is it the kind of thing you can see how it went (as much as an article can go!)? Maybe the question 'how it was received' is better!

Re: A long rave

@CheerBear, I think I'd rather the heat here than the 40 plus days elsewhere, though I'm nonetheless taking full refuge in aircon like never before. 

Yes, the article was published! It's been shared by a collection of others on social media. A fair few 'likes'. Some have commented favourably on it. That's about all you get really, but it's more than enough for me. Woman Happy

What's the day looking like for you?

Re: A long rave

That's so great to hear @Mazarita. I think it's really brave to put yourself out there as you do. Nice to read the comments and see the likes I imagine 🙂

Today is looking like a house day. I would really like my crew to do their room. Big is passing down their desk to next one so it will be clearing out and moving things around - something no-one will be keen on! I had a really testing afternoon with them yesterday and I'm hoping very much to not have a repeat of that today but it needs to be done.

Other than that, playing with kitten who they're training to do all kinds of things at the moment, and maybe mowing is on the cards. Would be great to get that done today also 🙂

Re: A long rave

Thanks, @CheerBear. Confidence is at a relative high at the moment, a good time to be doing things like this. May not last forever, so making hay while the sun shines. At other times I have been too timid, anxious, and self-recriminating to extend myself as far.

Sounds like you have a productive day planned. Fingers crossed the crew are in a better place with it all than yesterday, and you too. 

I'm impressed that the kitten can be trained to do things. Cats are not so easily trainable in my experience. One of the things I like about them is their independent spirit. They seem to do as they please a fair bit!

Dawn is here now, and so time to head towards bed again. Great to see you this morning. Friendly vibes heading your way for the rest of the day. Heart
