Day 12 ? of no cigarettes. π On we go!
Congratulations on that! (an for each next day)!π
About the gossiping, yes, what else does it do than drain everyones energy (or at least that's what it does to me, doing or hearing it) Then I had a conversation recently about minding what we speak about, in a sense of wheather it is a relevant subject or not (...and it's shocking how we could spare so much of what comes out of our mouths, including gossip)
As always nice to read what you are up toπ

Hey you :) Good to "see" you!
So agree! I'm kinda in a state of mostly silent right now and the more you let it be the less you feel the need to say. Erm... :D
Thanks! Yesterday was rubbish but the music got me through and turned it into a good 'un. Something switched with the momentum and today as even better!
p.s I learned to knit while I was away! It's harder than I thought! I mean to keep it consistent!! Geesh... a real craft, huh?!
I love it!!! I'm a bit obsessed in fact π
Oooh that is exciting!! What are you knitting?
So that means you found yarn/wool?
Actually on that matter (you said yarn was expensive and hard to get, no?)...

I was trying to knit a hooded scarf.
But fuck, sista! It's hard!!!
Me... I want to do this particular stitch and, of course, being me launch straight into things.
So it's a mess but I'm learning! ππ
Yes :) I found wool at a little shop in the village (and needles) that weren't crazy expensive. I re-used the first ball of wool three times practicing!
Nope. I keep fucking up the stitches and the pattern changes :( Unreal how much concentration, huh? But that isn't the only reason I'm learning this craft. More to follow ;)
I also have this specific design in my head, and another project I want to do commercially, but... good things take time apparently.
Only more respect for your skills. WOW. πππ
Hooded scarf, awesome!!
(love these, I think they are just super comfortable and it looks great, kind of turns any outfit into fashion I feel:D)
Hard? Yes!! I don't have the patience, but there are so many awesome stitches you can do...
Well I am very curious still:)
...apparently they doπ but then they turn out even better!!

:) well. Mine is a bit lumpy and bumpy... but then so is life and myself!
I'm still on it!
I don't think it's going to be a work of art. But a work worth remembering it will be for sure!
This was when I stopped smoking cigarettes for good ;)
The knitting was a part of the plan. And it works like a mofo bomb!
I am sure it is!!
When I knit (which isn't often) I always feel like all the thoughts I am having while knitting kind of get tangled into the piece. So definitely a piece of you:)
Wasn't knitting for me, but I was just thinking it's like you have to just give your brain another occupation instead! (I am a bit amazed myself how it works:D)
Yep. It's like that :)
I think it is also the left and right brain "crossing". I think it strengthens neuro-connectivity and maybe even creates new ones.
I only found I didn't crave smoking at all while I knitted. And boy did I knit for hours some nights!
Amazing craft though. I'd like to get decent at it. And just more respect for what you do π₯π
I am amazed every time to realize how much more we can teach our brain to do, or how many new ways are still there to discover...
I imagineπ

Btw, "Engage" is it an app? I am trying to figure out, it would be great to not having to use the laptop to write comments...
Yep. Engage keeps all comments together and they disappear when you've answered.
I just found it easier for admin. I've missed comments before so...
I've stopped kniting since we chatted. Must pick it up again π¬
That sounds good, I guess I get it too then...:)
Ouuu, yes!!
Yep. Simpler for me and my dodgy admin.
And I picked upnknitting again after your comment:D
Thanks for the reminder π
