Can we have a positivity thread?

I’m wearing a brand new tee shirt today, that I bought on my holiday a couple of weeks, so is reminding me of being in the south of France rather than in cold foggy Surrey.

then you should go and see her. Should be a positive experience and therefore appropriate to this thread!

You should all do some weird synced up shout out between songs on all the nights

Feeling really shit from overwork atm BUT I’m trying to see the positives:

• I’m overworked because I’m in demand
• The organisations I’m working for pay really well and are working to make a better world
• They’re also my ideal clients and I’ve been gagging for more work from them for ages
• My contact people at the organisations are super nice and have been very understanding
• Once I’ve finished it all and got paid (mid-Nov) I’m gonna take it easy until Christmas

Good evening positivity thread, I have seen Laura Veirs!

That is amazing!! Did you show her / link her to this thread?

If I see her tonight I’ll ask her

[thewarn]

the eldest has been awarded her EHCP (like the old ‘statement of special educational needs’) after a bit of a battle with the council. It hopefully should mean that she gets the help she needs through school and later on through college and uni if she goes. She’s also having a super start to the year at school

Really pleased to hear this ccb. We’re currently battling the council too…

[Scagden]

I tried to explain about the thread but I probably just came across as a burbling idiot as a) I’d just been blown away by her set and b) I was a bit star-struck actually talking to her IRL.

I may well have said “positivity… the internet with threads… a thing… with sign? You? It’s for being positive and nice.” Actually I doubt I was as coherent as that. She was a very good sport though.

Ah I think they’re refusing most EHCP applications in the first instance. It’s worth going to mediation / appeal though - the council backed down before it got that far.

Feel free to DM me (or if @ColonClsdParenthasis wants to email me that’s fine too) - not sure how much advice I’ve got but am happy to try.

At home this week I have avoided beer and just had one glass of white wine per night and have exercised/meditated every day, I’m feeling more flexible from yoga which is nice
