TheBookHippie So so so pretty!!! 4d

Deblovestoread I did using scraps from piecing quilts. It was a lovely few hours spent in my sewing room. 4d

CrowCAH @Deblovestoread wonderful work! 😁 4d

ShelleyBooksie @Deblovestoread - super cool!! 4d

Deblovestoread @ShelleyBooksie They seem to be taking their own sweet time making their way to their destinations. I weighed them to make sure they were under an ounce so don‘t know what the hold up is. 4d

@ShelleyBooksie thank you for the homemade card, super creative!

I love the “sparrow” and compass stickers, me thinks they be a little piratey 🏴‍☠️🙃

And the peacock 🦚 on the envelope ✉️ bodes to my love of Pride and Prejudice 🥰

ShelleyBooksie Yay! Glad it arrived ♡♡ 4d

How to Stop Trying: An Overachiever�s Guide to Self-Acceptance, Letting Go, and Other Impossible Things | Kate Williams

#MentalHealthMonday

I‘m coping by staying hydrated, watching YouTube videos by licensed mental health professionals, writing, and spending time outside later. And will probably do some reading too! Oh, and being less hard on myself. Hence this book!

Anyone want to be added to my #MentalHealthMonday tagged list? Let me know!

IriDas Im supposed to be coping? Excuse me a moment **screams into the void** OK, I‘m back. 😉 Would love to be added. I‘m glad you can get some refreshment today. Much needed right now. 2w

Deblovestoread To cope I‘m taking a day off from news. I have a couple of small chores to do and then I am finishing up my cards for #SummerCardSwap. Tonight I‘m going to an outside concert with my daughter where I intend to dance with abandon and sing (badly) at the top of my lungs. 2w

dabbe I do! 🙋‍♀️ And thank you! I'm taking the dogs for a walk before it gets above 100º; then, I hope to get some housework done while jamming to my favorite 70s-80s tunes, then read in the afternoon, and watch the D-Backs. NO NEWS. Totally hiding from that. 💙 2w

dabbe @Deblovestoread I hope you and your daughter shake down that concert house! 😍 2w

CatLass007 I‘m avoiding the news as much as possible, listening to good music, and listening to good books. I also am wondering why one of my cats, Benjamin, thinks that the best time to cuddle is in the summer when it‘s 90° out. This morning when I was still in bed, he decided to climb on my pillow and press his back up against my left ear. It‘s OK I‘ve been having earache in that ear. The last few days and heat is always good for an earache. I (cont)⬇️ 2w

CatLass007 will request prayer and positive thoughts sent Molly‘s way (and mine) since her health is declining and I need to be super aware of how she‘s behaving because I think the day to take her to be euthanized will be this week. I just need to be careful not to hold onto her for too long. I have to remember that this is for her not for me. 2w

AnnCrystal @CatLass007 prayers for you both during this difficult time. Molly just needs to know you're near when she does journey on 😢🙏🏼🫂💝. (edited) 2w

Kerrbearlib @IriDas Screaming into the void counts as coping, in my opinion, lol! I will be sure to add you next time!

Thank you to all my dear Litten friends for the #summercardswap! Work leading up to vacation was crazy and I only sent a few before I left. So I had to bring my cards with me to write and send (see upper right corner of this photo). Fortunately it‘s still lovely on my cabin‘s balcony so I‘m writing cards this morning. @TheBookHippie
