What I want vs limitations

harmonica

I wanted sooo much to make a great travel capsule, indulge myself in some style playing and share with you here. I wanted the most perfect capsule that covered every need (shopping, sightseeing, work, restaurants, galleries, jazz club, modest but fun night life... ) and discuss it to perfection with you.

I want to participate and give proper comments to all the interesting and inspirational posts here. It's so good to participate in this community and pay back for the so appreciated comments I've gotten. And putting it all down in words are important parts of grasping different styles, fitting etc

Reality says: exhausted, major all day + night head ache, work loads waiting, appointments, everyday home/work logistics etc etc etc

Just wanted to stop by and say sorry for not participating as much as I want

Harmonica, big hugs to you!
You don't owe an explanation. I think we would all like to participate more than we can. Real Life Comes First!
If you're like me, you start threads in your head, have elaborate picture stories and discussions worked out, but not only can't find the time, are too tired when you're here to execute them, or get sidetracked reading new conversations. I get it, I'm sure we all do. Perhaps breaking it down into manageable bits would help. When you do get time to post your wardrobe experiments, we will still be here to share the fun xoxo

Ditto what Fruitful said. There are no expectations so don't put pressure on yourself. Life interceds, as does exhaustion and headaches.

You DO participate in a capacity that suits you and your time restraints. And I always enjoy it when you do.

I rarely post. But I am going to try to do at least one of Bella's photo inspirations. Start small and manageable. Maybe you could do the same with the challenge. Just one ( and you all week to do it !! )

Hugs !

Just get yourself ready for the trip and have a good time! You can tell us all about it when you can and the internet is always here to bring us all back at some point right?

It's all about balance

Fruitful: I think what bothers me most, is exactly what you are describing - starting treads and answers in your head. That was really nagging me yesterday, as well as all the smaller and larger tasks waiting.

Kids and neighbours helped out yesterday, so I got a lot off my shoulders. Feeling better today
