Uk (Welsh in particular) mature students advice please - am I wrong to think I can survive (financially) if I attempt a full time degree.
Thank you in advance a nearly 50 year old with a mortgage and a teenager.

The teeny tiny lone daffodil in our garden reminded me I haven’t shared the Welsh Lady Gilbert that I made for St David’s Day!

I love the synchronicities that show up giving confirmation that something was ‘meant to be’. The ‘adult beginner class’ advertisement on Facebook the very day I looked into ballet (that was closing the next day).
My heart swelled and my eyes filled with tears when I practiced the other night.

So disappointed that the pieces I glazed in November still haven’t been fired.
Community pottery is great….except when you start making things in September that you’re waiting for 6months later.

Help please. If I want to listen to ancient Welsh sounds what can I search?
Welsh Celtic (not Gaelic or Scottish/Irish - love them but looking for Welsh connections)
Love the old Calon lan and Dafydd Iwan but that’s not what I’m looking for either.
I think I need Traditional not Folk? Any ideas?

My body is telling me I need to move more. My energy needs to find its flow again. So to help and heal my inner child I’ve just signed up to adult ballet class trial 🩰

Friendly reminder if you have ADHD and you feel like you are annoying to exist or hated by others, you aren’t, rejection sensitivity dysphoria is common with ADHD brains 🧠 💗

I know I’ve made myself ill by being so down on myself this week. Working myself up to something that disappointed me so much. The RSD has hit me hard.
Now I’ve hit the guilt stage. I’ve just had to do the ‘I’m too sick, cough’ phone call to my parents!

Someone has seen the black shiny thing that looked like Venom that was watching me with its tentacles from the corner of my room. But no one has owned up to seeing the woman with long dark hair, lots of eyes that moved around her face like a Picasso who smiled at me when I woke from a nightmare.

I was supposed to be busy Monday but now I’m not. To get over the disappointment I promised myself I’d do something nice to treat myself and cheer myself up.
Do I visit my happy place (Tenby) or the place I’ve been meaning to visit (Hay-on-wye)

Feeling awful mentally has made physically ill with a cold. After breakfast I’ve gone to change the bedsheets but instead I’ve found myself having a bit of a lay down. I’m hoping I find the energy to get dressed.

Today’s Angel oracle card was perfect but I’m totally stuck in a ‘I’m not good enough’ rut today and tears are close to the surface constantly.

RSD with perceived rejection is bad, but my RSD because I’ve had an actual rejection email is all I can think about.

‘So you haven’t got official NHS diagnosis?’
‘Was it a quiz from ‘Just Seventeen’ or ‘Cosmo’?!’
‘Truthful answers, or what you thought they wanted to hear?’
‘You can’t meditate if you have ADHD’
‘diagnosed by Instagram!’
‘That’s not ADHD, everyone does it!’
All from friends on one evening out.

I’ve been thinking of my Great grandmother a lot this week. Just remembered it would have been her birthday on the 15th January. Grateful to the BFI that I get to see her, my grandmother, and my dad as a child in the 50s. (This was from our local paper a few years ago)

I didn’t do my grounding in the garden this morning. Finally the fence is getting fixed so today I’ve tidied the garden, pruned trees and re-potted, got my hands in the dirt and compost. Breathing exercises in a cleansing shower. I feel at peace …. But unbelievably tired.

After self-gifting this gorgeous tarot deck that Frank has created I finally got round to taking it for a spin!
The beautiful cards were easy to interpret (I did check in the little guide book for confirmation) and resonated.

I collected my new glasses today.
Tonight I can’t sleep because I’m running through the conversation I’m going to have to have with the optician because I can’t see out of my new glasses.
