September has been a struggle for me and my family. Having children that find school difficult has such an impact on the whole family. September brings fear and dread into my bones. I sit with a huge rock of anxiety in my stomach for most of the month. My mental health has been teetering on the edge trying to scaffold my children’s needs and support them through their struggles. It has a knock on effect! October is here and things are improving, slowly but we are on the right path. A slight uphill is a win! I’m finding time to do things that fill my cup. Returning to choir has been something I did this week and wow FaceNoise. is VERY good for the soul. I’ve found time to sew, sewing things I’ve wanted to make for ages. Sewing for me is so good for my brain and my mental wellbeing. I’m feeling more positive and hopeful. Sorry for the ramblings….but if you’re feeling crap I recommend dusting off your sewing machine and quacking some Fleetwood Mac on and everything will feel better!!
