there's no deadline on grief/mourning Light, no pressure to get through the hard times fast. These things need to run their course, there's no need to push yourself through. That'll only hurt in the long run

we've been cleaning the ceiling in the stockroom at work all week, and I'm really feeling the effects on my back/neck/shoulders :/
Going to be real glad when its over and done with! I'm so tired these days that I haven't been on much at all X.X

Colds are awful. Hope you feel better soon.


I feel like there's been so much going on that we really haven't had much time to grieve honestly. We've been having to call so many different companies/people, going to a bunch of different places, so much cleaning.

My body is just not keeping up with the strain. I'm so exhausted. Even on days we don't do a lot of physical stuff I am just completely exhausted.

We also need to work on the ceiling at Sandy's house. We have to peel the cracked paint off and then paint it again.

I hope you stop being sore soon. Maybe a hot bath would help?

*hugs light*

*hugs Popodoki*

So many hugs!
How are you doing?

I'm doing okay.

My friends kind of disappointed and excluded me the past week.. But I talked to one of them and she said it was totally not on purpose... It's fine, I know that, but I cannot help feeling excluded and sad.

At least I could do a little more for uni because of that

How are you?

Did you manage to talk to all those friends? I think its an 'issue' worth discussing, that even if they meant no such thing it still came across as exclusion. Wouldn't want there to be lingering bad feelings if there's a chance it can be talked out o;

I'm so sorry for my total absences these days, its cleaning chaos at work and on top of that my cosplays are getting most of my free time attention because I have a big convention this week and they're not 100% how I want them yet

I talked to one group of friends, as I said, but not to the other group. It's fine, I couldn't have participated in that group activity anyhow as I was working that weekend, but still it would have been nice to have been asked. Oh well. No hard feelings :)

Seems like everyone is absent here. The forums are almost dead. Let's see if the caravan can help :)

How was your convention?

I've been super busy at home. Cleaning out two houses so we can move into a new one. Plus I had another funeral to go to. And there's just so much paperwork involved.


Sorry that your friends made you feel excluded. I hate that feeling. I also like to be invited even if I know I can't come. Oh well.


Which cosplays are you doing this time? Good luck on getting them done in time and how you want them to be.

oh wow I've been so inactive even the caravan has completely passed my notice :'x

Well I had my vacation and it was great but tiring, and I got tossed back into work straight after so my recovery has been a bit rough. Not much energy to really be online much at all, sorry!

I was quite happy with my cosplays, managed to finish them enough to my liking so they were wearable. One lesson learned though is not to wear a winged cosplay on the busiest day of a con (Mercy from Overwatch) c':

but they survived and so did I, on to the next adventure haha

how's everyone here?

It's been super slow on here recently. I usually get to reply to most of the threads I'm subscribed to at least once a day but a lot of them nobody has been on for a couple days.

I'm glad that you had a good time on your vacation!
No worries. I understand that. It happens to me all the time. lol.

Ooo! I really like Overwatch. The characters and story is really cool. I'm not super great at playing it though. lol. My reactions are pretty slow. But I enjoy watching my husband play.

I'm okay mostly. Stressing about new dog ownership and getting a new house. All that jazz. Very stressful.
