@Former-Member Yeah sometimes words just don't cut it hey.
Sometimes wwhen I keep getting 'stuck' I do find a change of scenery can help. If I can get unstuck long enough to move anyway 😅
Have you gotten some sun today? I popped out for a bit this morning to catch some rays, I love some warm sun on my back! Plus vitamin D always handy

@MJG017 yes it's a bad day but it's only going to get worse. I only have until the 13th to try and sort accommodation out. I'm trying so hard to keep myself safe, some moments it's doable others it's such a struggle. I'm exhausted but I can't lose focus or control. But right now the reality is I'm not coping and sooner or later I'm going to need that extra support to try and keep safe.
Can you try and distract me somehow please? I've tried today so many times but nothing has worked other than to just pass the time.

@Former-Member haha luckily it's easier to choose when it's not a choice for me!! If that makes sense...
Okay!! Well since I just had to scoop a tiny spider out of the air, how bout bugs!! Do you like spiders, or you a 'burn it all down it's the only way to be sure' kinda person?
Do you like preying mantids? Or dragonflies? Also wanna see my contender for silliest bug?

@Former-Member EEE nice!! I love spiders, but I still get the super ick feeling if I find one crawling on me!! Used to have a huge golden orb weaver outside my bedroom window growing up, and a huntsman that lived behind our shower curtain - so I got used to em!!
Hehe here, I give you the derpiest bug of all - the weevil!!
haha look at its little face!!
Do you get lots of pests and stuff you gotta manage with your ickle butterfly babies?

@Jynx yeah I love watching orb weavers, get them regularly here usually across my arch outside, always have to check before walking through it 😂.
Awww that face is just too cute 😍.
Get lots of ladybugs, also get wasps but they are a pest and k!ll the caterpillars.
Fun fact did you know that this funny looking thing
Turns into this cute ladybug
