I am posting this as I feel that I have to defend,explain my personal life to various people. I have taken fleece in for prep and spinning this ,obviously a mistake. I always make it clear that I am busy that the process can be lengthy as there is a lot if work involved and I charge a low rate as I do it for the pleasure of it.
I have had an horrendous 2 years ,having lost my mother, then my father last Christmas Eve. I suffer from very poor mental health and the work with fleece etc really helps me. My mental health has been really bad for the past 2 years ,watching one parent die from cancer and the other from a broken heart destroys you.
I have 2 teenage children on the autistic spectrum so everyday life is challenging. We have then had 18.months of hell from our neighbours which culminated in the police involved due to them filming my daughter playing her piano through the window , this was then posted on social media . My beautiful gifted daughter has now not played the piano for months.
The final straw has been our landlord deciding that he wants the house back,we had lived their for 10 years. I have found us house that suits our peculiar needs perfectly, but have had the upheaval of moving 2 weeks ago to deal with.
I ,like many others ,have also had to deal with the immense anxieties of my children around covid and their panic that I, their rock,was hoping to catch it and die if I went out anywhere.
I apologise if over the last few months I have lost some of my spinning mojo, i have been working on fleece but not as obsessively as usual because other things gs have got in the way and I have been really struggling to help myself going ,but I have had to for my children.

If you have read this far, thank you. I apologise to you all, but also I really do not like displaying my personal life on social media, if don't think you should have to .

Poor mental health is very,very difficult to live with I do hope that not many of you suffer as I do.

Morning, I haven't posted for awhile. Things have been strange for us all, I had lost my love of spinning for a time after losing my father at Christmas, then this virus hit and I have lost my father in law to it, but I have found solace in spinning. The gentle rhythms of the wheel are very healing. Stay safe everyone, especially as the world around us opens up
