I'm sorry to read you're feeling grey. I think it's common at the end of summer. It's as though the freedoms the season brings dissipate and we're left with the fact we just have to toil until next spring brings back hope and excitement. Saying that I adore the cooler months as the warm months are too harsh on our hill. Remember a few years ago we all joined in with the #thingiloveaboutwinter hashtag? That was fun.<br /><br />We've begun our schooling journey this year and I have mixed feelings. The school is wonderful and Anouk loves it so it's really just my own (probably silly) misgivings. I feel stressed just thinking about dealing with big kid problems. Argh.<br /><br />As far as the Instagram stuff, I too struggle with the fake nature of certain profiles, the strange restraint that people seem to think makes for a covetable aesthetic but just screams control issues and sadness to me and the blatant commodification of every single item imaginable. A while ago I deleted most of the people I followed and stuck to a few select (you!) and people I actual know in real life. It was a nice break but then I missed the inspiration and creativity of fellow knitters and potters. My answer is to have two accounts. One public, one private. The public account can be checked and shared on when I fancy being inspired and can deal with the 'curation'. I also manage to keep myself in check by remembering something Felicia from The Craft Sessions wrote about crafting being the new consumerism.<br /><br />Anyway, my time is up as the bread is finished kneading and the girls, Nick and I are due somewhere at 10.<br /><br />Much love to my fellow girl mum.

Im...I too feel panicked at the sameness of my life. Impossibly tedious. Bland. How do we, as privileged, intelligent people get to this point? There is so much opportunity, so many things to do and see in life, yet it all feels separate from where I am. For me i think it is a yearning for more meaning. And to do things better. Not to waste the privilege and opportunity. Sometimes when feel like this i book a flight to Sydney for a weekend (where i have some good friends) and take myself away from the family, the house, the routine, which allows me an opportunity to pretend I am 23 years old again, and travelling the world. But perhaps thats what is needed. More travelling, less idleness. Its hard to find the balance.<br />Thank you for your beautiful sharing xxxStefanoirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10249824259548491423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-38156160597754787182017-02-20T06:41:14.766+11:002017-02-20T06:41:14.766+11:00Kate, how great to read a blog that tells the trut...Kate, how great to read a blog that tells the truth.

I don...I am so glad you decided to post this blog. I don't think you are at all alone with how you are feeling (although I know from experience that that knowledge doesn't really help the funk). Blah, that's how I'm feeling at the minute, Blah. It's like I'm on a hamster wheel instead of in a snow globe, but I can see all the wonderful things that everyone else seems to be doing and enjoying and I'm stuck there on the wheel of Blah! LOL<br /><br />It's little things that lift my spirit though, like seeing those spotty socks of yours on Instagram <3, sometimes things I didn't even feel like doing - like dance class, dreaded going, nearly talked myself out of it several times, finally forced myself through the doors and came out buzzing!<br /><br />I think you just have to accept how you're feeling sometimes and wait for it to pass. I saw a quote on Facebook the other day - <br /><br />This too shall pass<br /><br />It may pass like a kidney stone<br /><br />But it will pass. LOL<br /><br />Big hugs to you, I hope your funk lifts soon and you are back enjoying all those wonderful blessings. ;)Comberspudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12622541878228469681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-86104974364872258432017-02-18T03:14:55.373+11:002017-02-18T03:14:55.373+11:00Three words: out of Africa.

They do say that a problem shared is a problem halved. A lot of people reading your blog will, or have felt the same way that you do at one time or another. So will read this and think hey this is so normal and it doesn't matter how grateful or lucky you are it's just there. It's perfectly normal to feel the way you do, it's not wrong it just is. It will pass sometimes sooner than others family is the grounding and the rest superficial. Live each day with however it comes.

I feel like you need them.<br />Secondly, I have started logging out of instagram from Friday night to Monday morning. Its good. Very Good.<br />Then last week I done this stop scrolling challenge ( google it ), the point of which is to not atop you using social media but to make you more mindful when you use it. Really good.<br />Also, I'm not sure how much of my instagram you actually see but if I am one of those people who come across all scream-y ( & I probably do because I use it as a place to empty my thoughts but I'm thinking I might want to stop that )I am sorry.<br />Here in Perth our growing season has not been great. It was looking good but has become stunted. I feel robbed. Mainly of tomatoes....<br />I am loving This is Us too. Still loving Vikings & also The Crown.<br />I'm also going to recommend a really little book to you- Destination Simple.

I bet anything that it is post viral. Here in the UK we are seeing the first signs of long awaited spring. The pretty white snowdrops and yellow aconites are out.
