Monday Mind Day for the ladies

Good afternoon Lounge Ladies,

I was reminded today of one of the threads we had at the start of Lockdown 1, we kept it to the ladies and I think it fitting to do the same with this.

It was to do with looking out for each other, or even if you want just some random chat. You can even ask for/share make up tips à la Swing.

I doubt any of us thought then we would be sat 40 odd weeks later and the world would still be upside down.

So pull up a chair, snuggle on a bean bag and have a natter

"Good evening Hope how are you xx"

Hey Kat, how chilly is it today?

It has been a strange one as I had to do the whole virtual funeral for an old friend who took his own life on new years day. I guess that is what made me think of last years post.

So opposed to doing a "be kind" type of thread I thought I would create a little corner on here.

How has your day been?

My office has been rearranged several times since #1

I’m pleased to say, for the main I’ve quite enjoyed working from home. My friends in both virtual fab and real life have kept in touch regularly and where needed, offered moral support

"Good evening Hope ..

That just made me laugh as one of my old colleagues addressed a letter to Hand & Cock once. This was a typo but only one letter out.

She got pulled up for it as the client complained and blamed it on a temp.

Is Mr Handcock giving us good news? I am still working so haven't got the tv on.

When you talk about your office set up it always makes me feel ashamed of mine I take up six feet of one of the kitchen walls with my set up and I always feel in a muck with it.

I bet you will be glad when you can get back to your Saturday meet ups with your gym friends.

Good though that you have a network around you x

I agree it's bloody freezing I'm really sorry about your friend. I lost my grandma almost 2 weeks ago I'm 'lucky' in a sense that I am getting to attend the funeral in person. It's a lovely thought to create a hopefully nice peaceful and calm corner xx

Sorry for your loss Kat. Yes the whole funeral thing is still so strange. We had 10 of us when my brother passed last year and obviously no wake.

You are welcome in this calm corner anytime x

Ha our bathroom is about the warmest room in the house. Not sure the echo effect on the phone would be appropriate though.

Hopefully you will be back to doing your laps of the pool soon x

Evening all. This is a nice idea OP, I'm sorry to hear of your friend. It's so sad when people feel there is no other way.

I started doing a little bit of meditation in lock down no 1, it's very good for that calming effect ~ until you hear your children bounding about like elephants.

I'm lucky that I went back to work 7ish weeks into it all, I'd of gone do lally if I hadnt!

I'll try and pop back later after we've eaten

Hi Angie

I get nagged at as we haven't done anything at home. It is only me working for my company at the moment, the rest are on furlough, so I have not stopped since everyone else went off at Lockdown 1.

When I log off I am too pooped.

I will get there eventually. Or rope you in to do this place too

Yes very sad and such a waste. It is unfortunate though that people cannot see all the love that was there for them. We as the ones left behind are guilty for not showing it I guess. We all just get caught up in our own little world.

I have only spent about 10 days in the office since March 16th. I am quite acquainted with the kitchen wall

Trying to find a place and a moment for peace can prove difficult.

I know. Just wanted to send the hug. And it's a lovely post.

I can't really talk about my stuff, so I'd rather spread some joy

You don't have to share your "stuff".

Think of it like a coffee morning where you can chat random things like which shampoo do you use. Does your cat forget to come home at night.

Whatever floats your boat x

Well that is not good. What can we do to get rid of the cranky stuff?

Getting you on a plane would be a start I guess?

Working is important too. The house will always be there. I’d be no good to ask to decorate as I can’t bend , thank god I’ve got help at home x

To be fair it was all only done a couple of years ago after a flood so it isn't desperate. I just have someone nagging me that everyone else gets all their DIY done and nothing here. My only argument is that I have a job and that at the moment is far more important.
