Last week a job advert landed on my Facebook feed:

I would love to do it and to anyone else it sounds a great job 14 hours a week, for me that is about 10 hours too many!! I even know the person who is advertising the job! But who would give me the job even if I was well enough having not worked for 15 years and being very out of date.
I came on the PC to post pictures of the things I have made in June, just to prove I actually did something and found that in my haste I have not got pictures of many of the things, so annoying as they were good too, even if I do say so myself, not something I do very often.
Any here are the ones I do have
Pattern from Embroidery on Paper for Every Occasion Perfect Paperback – Sep 2004

Pattern from Dee Craft
Pattern from Ann's Paper Art
I also made two hot air balloon cards with patterns from Dee Craft and this car pattern in green and added a roof to it. So I did do something, but it doesn't feel much. I have a couple of orders for cards which I need to get on with as the longer I leave it the more pressure I will be under and only have myself to blame.
I am really down at the moment due to limitations, decisions that I have to make and how it affects my family. The mindfulness has gone out the window as it's so hard to live in the moment and appreciate what you are doing when you know there will be consequences.
I have just seen these graphics which I think I need to take on board more, but it's still hard.
