Much mail love today! A card from [livejournal.com profile] silme and [livejournal.com profile] luis_mw, and a parcel from [livejournal.com profile] firinel that put a *huge* smile on my face. While she was visiting, I quizzed her about how she works so beautifully in watercolors, a medium I have *no* skill in. When she mentioned not buying 'student' supplies I had to laugh - of course that's what I'd been buying! So, she sent me a gorgeous set of watercolors! Thank you so much, Fin! (and we had a wonderful time too - hopefully the weather will cooperate more for your next visit!)

The financial situation has opened up a bit, and just in time, too, as things were getting really frustrating. No word on other arenas opening up yet, though. Still, we've scored some breathing room, for which I am most grateful.

I'm having some serious bone/joint issues lately. Not the usual aches and pains, but something much 'larger' if that makes sense. Concentration is difficult, and knitting or spinning is out of the question for any real length of time. Hopefully that'll pass soon.

Getting emotionally healthier is a double-edged sword, I think. I've begun following through on my understanding that my mother has no sense of boundaries, and simply will not respect mine, no matter how much I protest. So, I've been staying away from the phone, even when I have news I'd like to share, because I know that anything I had to say would be heard with half an ear, and then run over so she could rant on whatever had her attention that moment. The phone has not rung in many days. I've been inviting them for a visit for months now, and something is always more important.
Sometimes it's a bit of a downer, really. I know it's better for my mental health this way, but...I guess old habits die hard.

I certainly did - in fact, I got apples from the farmer's market this past weekend, and will be making a super sekrit apple pie tomorrow!:)

Expect a package soon...;)
