@amiablePeace77 I have more time on weekends to answer some of these threads thoughtfully!
@soulsings
Nice soul. Week days can be very busy.
@amiablePeace77
Usually my grandson is around, so we have a few activities together, but otherwise, as a pensioner, there is not much to do.
Sundays in the French countryside are quiet, because no stores are opened (bakeries and supermarket only till noon). Most people stay home or go on visits.
In my town a lot of people attend the church service because it's a way to meet others rather than because of religious convictions. It's about 2/3 full most Sundays, but in the summer, it's totally congested with people standing in the aisles. We have the scouts, the tourists, vacationers who own property in the area.
I do not go every Sunday, but I work for the sacristy to keep all the linens in order and repair textile decorations. I occasionally take home vessels in need of polishing.
@Fradiga
Sounds very similar to here Fradiga. Sundays are for church and visiting family.
I could imagine you enjoy the quiet time in the countryside after a busy summer with lots of people around!
@amiablePeace77
Yes. I don't mind people around, but I enjoy the quiet after that 😀
I complete my pending assignments, pray, and even crochet when I get free time.
@Admirablerainbow2825
It's good to have some extra time when things cannot be finished during the week. Have you done some crochet work recently?
@amiablePeace77
Yes. Crocheted scrunchies😃
@Admirablerainbow2825
Oh nice! Most people with longer hair need them! Do you also sell them?
Thank you! No, not yet
@Admirablerainbow2825
Might be a good business opportunity for you in future 😉
@amiablePeace77 I spend most trying to either numb myself, give in to unhealthy impulses, and try to not crash beyond repair.
@HardestLife1
I am really sorry to hear this. It's good though that you're aware of your situation. Do you think talking to someone trusted, maybe a listener here could help? I find the more we numb ourselves to prevent feeling the pain the more things get pushed down, sadly they will always surface again and might make life even worse.
@amiablePeace77
I'm at work on weekends but I also spend time with my long distance boyfriend.
@freshRabbit5716
I could imagine you look forward to the weekend to chat with him.
I go to my parents or relax.
@DutchMike
I could imagine your parents are grateful for your visits!
Quite so. We go into town, visit a bit nature, have coffee, go cycling.
@DutchMike
Sounds lovely!
