Re: Life and trauma

@MJG017 it's just exhausting going through this time and time again.

 

How are you going?

Did you get up to much today?

How's the Lego building going?

I know a lot of people make good money selling their prints... mainly dragons from what i've seen but there's all sorts of stuff that sells pretty well.

 

I enjoy doing prints for other people, but i do it for fun and as a distraction.  The money doesn't really mean much to me these days so I just keep doing it for fun, and for giving things to people for them to enjoy.  Things like little puzzles and fidgets for example...

These sorts of things, but with shiny silk multi-colour filament to make them look a bit fancy. 😁

@MJG017  oh I so want some to fidget with 😂. I have this tiny bit of string on my lanyard that I play with when I'm shopping, I do it without even realising half the time. I need some keyrings to hang on there to fidget with 😂

I didn't do much today.  I just finished the first 4 bags of my Lego Lambo (8 more bags to go!), and realised its 7pm and i'm hungry, so i'm off to deal with that.  It's a bit hard to continue with a kitten that keeps jumping up on a table full of bits of Lego. 😁

The fidgets ive done are quite popular.  The first one i did for someone, i ended up keeping becaise i kept playing with it, so i had to print another. 

 

The neighbours have 2 teenage girls, ine with autism and one with ADHD... they both loved them.

@MJG017 i need to get my hands on some.

 

Glad you were able to help them out with some fidgets, they are great for people with Autism and ADHD so good on you.

 

I talked to my doctor recently about the possibility of me having both Autism and ADHD and he is positive I've got them both but I can't afford a diagnosis.

@MJG017 I'm not helping with constantly distracting you with my messages 😂.

 

Ooohhh that sounds yummy, wonder if you have enough time to finish the bag before it's ready. 

 

Silly Luna 😂

I love my fidgets, I have a few but my favourite is probably my spinner. It’s my favourite colour.
