Hello all
Happy birthday, Brett @PurpleDragonartsandcrafts , well done to those who’ve had sales, and sending hugs to those who need them.
Today I’m back with the bee theme and my plain bee stamped hanging decoration which I’ve finally got round to listing:
It’s a lovely sunny day here, so far, at least.
I’m sorry your daughter’s having such a hard time, Karen @karenanncreations. X
Happy birthday, Brett @PurpleDragonartsandcrafts. 
Yet another relist from me: Teddy bears for an adult
Lovely Photo Joss @XStitcherJoss and good to see you looking OK…xx
Morning everyone.
I’m so pleased you like your cards Sharon @TheOldButton and that they arrived safe and sound. 
The question of copyright is a minefield isn’t it, when is it copying or when is it ‘artistic appropriation’? I think it’s fine to ‘borrow an idea’ as long as you develop and put your own artistic stamp on it. Judith Kerr was such a good artist and writer - she is inimitable anyway and few artists can match accomplishment of her work - a genius at play.
Happy Birthday Brett @PurpleDragonartsandcrafts - have a Fab day.
Those textiles are interesting Pam @PCCrafts and the musical evening sounds great fun.
Todays re-listing is another hawkmoth. Have a nice day everyone.
Morning everyone,
I’m back from my few days away up north. A much needed break, we even got to see the sea for the 1st time this year.
Happy birthday Brett @PurpleDragonartsandcrafts
I’ve had a sale since I reopened my shop, my 1st this month Deborah @DeborahJonesJewellery
Old photo, Brenda! (But I do look a deal better than I did a couple of weeks ago, when I think I looked a weary ninety!) X
Kim @KBCreations, I just spent the money I received for mother’s day on those cheerful red oven gloves!
What a worry for you Karen regarding the psychiatrist - ADHD is such a difficult and misunderstood area especially in girls and I really feel for you both. I’ve got my fingers crossed that your daughter can access appropriate services as the right treatment can make all the difference. xx
Happy birthday! Enjoy and eat cake
Morning all, another dry day here, not sunny like yesterday though.
Happy Birthday Brett @PurpleDragonartsandcrafts
Congrats Sue @Susieshackletontextiles have updated the tally. Hope you had a good restorative trip away.
Back later with a listing, juggling some stock around at the moment.
Good Morning all, lovely and sunny here, and the washing is out!! (for a change!)
New item today
A cute hand painted turtle including a mount
Thank you! The best of it is shes 32!
Despite trying to get a diagnosis at school we are only now getting somewhere so shes struggled all these years.
Apparently her age group more and more are being diagnosed as it was missed in their younger years.
Shocking isnt it 
xx
How old is your daughter Karen @karenanncreations - my daughter was diagnosed with Aspergers as a young adult following self referral. She suffered years of anxiety in her childhood but the diagnosis was the best thing to have happened to her. Although she would probably prefer to be without the label it has made her (and family and friends) realise why she is the way she is. People stopped trying to change her and accepted her for the way she is and the anxiety, although still there for many situations, has dropped considerably as she has developed coping strategies. Thinking of you and your daughter.
Edit- just seen she’s 32. Keep on going … it’s so worth it. Apparently girls are very good at masking autistic tendencies!
Faved to here …
I absolutely feel for you Karen @karenanncreations. I hope your daughter can access the right treatment for her and gets the support she needs.
My son has ADHD and it took a while for him to be diagnosed. He was in the CAMHS system until he reached 16 and then according to the rules at that time he was an adult and therefore couldn’t access any support! We had a very difficult few years but he was finally seen by a specialist in adult ADHD and put back on medication at 30! He’s 35 now and is much more on an even keel which is good to see. Take care x
Morning everyone.
Happy Birthday Brett @PurpleDragonartsandcrafts hope you have a great day.
That must be so stressful for you Karen @karenanncreations , I hope things get brighter for you and your daughter soon.
Nice to know there’s a market out there if you ever feel like diversifying Nikki @GlintBeads 
Just a relisted Easter card from me today.
Thank you… I think what has really made it worse is that she has really bad rollercoaster mood swings. One minute she is happy and suddenly it overwhelms her and she is so low… The psychiatrist may have given her the impression that this could be fixed with drugs etc but this time told her she will have to live with it! Shes finding it hard to come to terms with as she hates feeling like this all the time.
She has learning difficulties too… They are hoping his replacement- a Snr nurse who deals in mental health will be able to suggest therapy… In the meantime we are left with someone who really doesn’t want to be here 
Its very difficult xx
I’m sorry to hear about your daughter’s distress, Karen @karenanncreations such a worry for you . I hope your new practitioner has something to offer you. X
