h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Kea a while back I was reading and saw you had paid me a lovely compliment about having compassion plus wishing I would post more.


I have had to accept a slow down in activity which is hard, as you unfortunately know from your own experiences. I am still popping in to read an do some posting but it is considerably less.
I am not giving up h2g2 because I have met so many wonderful people and still yearn to learn more. The turmoil is too much of a drain at times but topics and posters are relaxing a bit again.

I wish I could retain, explain and reply more efficiently but I'll just have to work with what I have. I'm lucky to have made friends earlier when I was here more often. Now some people kind of know me when I pop up!

I hope you are better rested and feeling pretty good considering all you have delt with
Kea thank you for the kind remarks and for being a friend,
I hope to see you around soon.

Lovely to hear from you abbi I have been wondering where you have been - wasn't sure if you weren't on much, or if we were just on different parts of h2.

I'm really hoping that the onsite turmoil will settle down too. I've been spending more time in Peer Review lately, and was on the verge of unsubbing from the Forum completely. Fortunately things there seem more respectful again, so I'm back in a few thread there.

I'm sorry to hear that you have had to pull back activity wise, but am glad you still get to come here! Did you get all the house renovations done? How is that now?

I haven't been in Eyes for ages, so I don't really know how the old crowd is going. I have to catch up on the DMN threads too

I'm in a strange place. Just feeling stuck in my life and approaching 40 and thinking I need to make some big decisions in the next few years - pragmatic ones, but ones I don't really feel up to making (mostly to do with the long term and taking care of myself).

One good thing on the horizon is I am about to upgrade my computer. I'm hoping that it will make my online time much easier .

And I am recovering from the Summer. It took me longer than I thought it would. I've had to think hard about what I will do next time someone in my life needs that kind of support. No idea what I will do, except that I need to stop and think more about myself and the impact it will have on me.


I'm glad we're friends too. It's good to have this thread to touch base in from time to time.

best wishes,
kea.

Glad your computer is making online time more efficient

Those are the hardest changes and plans you are pondering or being nagged by. I wish you luck and the ability to think forward for yourself in a variety of ways.

I used to schedule the time - like a job, wven worry at times. That way I would do what I needed for the future without denial but stay mostly in the present. I tend to get most depressed when spening a lot of time in the very real past or the infinite possibilities imagining the furture.
It must be done at times. I hope you are able to keep a healthy bablance while working on the security of your future.

My home changes were about that.

I finally have a place for artwork and a bathroom that suits me plus lots of windows to observe and feel more a part of the natural world.
It was a very good decision

We wil also have a better arrangement if twinny comes to live with us later.

The rest of the process is on hold; waiting for workers.
My world was getting smaller with 99 percent of my time at home. I wanted to open myself to nature and retain contributing in the home in some way. Cooking I enjoy but have not accomplished much the last few years. I hope the kitchen changes will have me cooking and enjoying it some again

I miss my own cooking!
