It's not always bad. (Pics)

[Imnotbad]

I post alot because I get lonely and I don't have anyone to talk to really. Most of the stuff I post is negative and stressful. So I'm going to try and turn it around and try my best to post mostly positive stuff. Even if it seems abit boring. Its about making things feel better and not let the bad stuff over power the good.

One of the things I feel super proud of is my my garden. I done it all completely on my own no man help. Just me on my own. It was done a couple of years ago . But I still feel proud so I'm sharing it .

Has that made you feel better? Tearing someone down when they are trying to build themselves up?

Do you always like to start your Sunday's by being unnecessarily nasty or is it just today?

Ditto

Grow up- people don't have to agree or do what you want them to do. You aren't the thought police.

@LuluBlakey1 you just told me to grow up and then told me I’m not the “thought police” 😂

There is a time and a place for comments like yours and this was neither, have some empathy and understanding.

Well done OP, it looks fantastic, what an achievement doing that all on your own!

To anyone being rude about artificial grass: some people need it to keep their children safe, my son has complex ASD and learning disability and has Pica eating disorder and he would eat the whole lawn if he could.
Plastic grass means he is free to enjoy a garden in safety and he can’t eat the artificial grass. Stop being so judgmental and take a minute to consider other people have difficult circumstances and are trying to do what’s right for them.

Thank you 😊

That's brilliant. Well done you ☺️

Maybe a few tubs with flowers or small veg to keep you going?

Thank you 🙂

I'm not going to add anything to be honest. I need it to be practically maintenence free.

Dog probably piss on my veg patch anyway 🤢

@Woollypullover

sonrtimes it's best not to post if you can't say something nice.

@LuluBlakey1

time & place, and this thread was neither!!

someone's MH is more important that a small bit of artificial grass in a new build where 'real' grass is difficult to grow & maintain. The OP has a lot going on in her life & if a couple of meters of artificial grass makes her life easier then I can't get worked up about

@Imnotbad

you did really really well, the transformation is incredible. If you could bottle some of your energy I'd be happy to pay good money for it!

Im glad I stumbled across this thread, I keep losing you, but love hearing about/seeing your projects & transformations!!

how is the front doing now??

Looks great. You have such patience, I’d have given up at the spreading all the gritty stuff out stage☹️.

Oh! I’ve seen your threads before and I’m so impressed! You are strong, determined, creative and bloody TALENTED!

and what I love about reading your posts, is you are always finding ways to feel good about yourself, your environment, your children’s wellbeing

you sound bloody amazing xxxx

I have no energy 😭

The front is shit... let's not talk about that ... 🤣

I put a basic shelving unit together yesterday. For under my stairs. So I'm going to organise that area to make it easier to find /store stuff . I'm going to do the same upstairs as well. I have got as far at staring at it today .

I don't know about being talented wish I was.

I really struggle to be positive to be honest most of my threads are depressing . But I need to cone from a better direction now for my own wellbeing and the kids .

Well done - we had our garden professionally landscaped etc last year and it cost us thousands and I have to say yours is way nicer looking!!! I'd say it's so satisfying sitting out in it knowing you have created that lovely space 🥰

Thank you for all the kind responses. It's been a nice lift up. It motivated me to sort the cupboard under my stairs 😅.

I Need to spend mon/Tuesday doing washing and sorting the house out.

Wednesday pound shop for paint brushes etc. Kids are away from Wednesday early evening.

Thursday paint/decorate the spare room

If I can get that done that would be good

It’s awful you struggle so much with being happy. I know the feeling.

i know there is no easy fix, but keep doing what you’re doing. Hope you have a kind and understanding gp. I’m positively rattling with anti ds, and after years finally have the right dose for me. creating beautiful spaces is really helpful too, my bedroom is my little sanctuary. (Trying to tell this to my son who lives in squalor, we are starting on his room this week hopefully)

I have so much admiration for you, I really do.

oh, a candle and a plant always bring me a little joy too xxxx

Lovely dog!

I hope your OK. Sounds like your getting there. It's great you have your room to be your personal space. I hope it gos well with your ds room. He will probably feel good about it to 🙂

Thank you

Wow I would love to do that. Good for you 😊

@Imnotbad

well you've a lot more energy than I have these days. But if you've none to sell I'll just have to keep looking... 😂😂

shame about the front, it looked lovely when you did it!

well done getting & assembling the shelving unit!!

Yeah but never mind I cat sort it again. And yet keep looking share if you find some 😅

Yeah under the stairs is tidy now

Could I do this 🤔

@Imnotbad

of course you could!! Look at what you did in the other room!!

it's a fab design!!
