A Friend a Day Makes Sure You're Okay

Yesterday was R.U.O.K? Day
I'd have asked someone if I'd realised
and if ever there was a day I could have benefited from someone asking me
'are you okay?'
it would have been as good a day as any

instead

after my morning [workshop] I drove over to Denises

on a promise of the chance to rummage through her cast offs 
before she rocketed them off to the oppy.



I nearly called off with a lame excuse
being that I don't require anymore clothes
and I quite liked the idea of my own company
but the lure of spending some time with my friend in her creative space was too strong



and after a couple of hours chatting, drinking coffee & rummaging 
with some impromptu REinventing advice given
we discussed plans and patterns in the pipe line




I left feeling REfreshed & REjuvenated
knowing intuitively
 we were OK
and both better for having seen each other


.....although now I've got to work out where to put my pile of treasure!


Everyday should be R.U.O.K Day

'R.U.O.K?'

  5. My RUOK day is tomorrow and if I am lucky for an amazing 4-5hours. I am also spending it being creative - not a drop of housework or meal preparation included - oh for what bliss - if only for one day of what I hope will be once a month. :)
