Check-In Post May 8th 2024

Hello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.


This Week's Question: What's the most complicated project you've ever tackled?


If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.

I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

Oh, that's great!

I didn't even know he'd done it. I went out to do some work on it myself and found the bin half full of clippings! Stealth gardening, obviously, lol!

[jupiter2932]

Aww, that's sweet. I've had similar help from a neighbor in mowing my parents' lawn when I was ill and completely forgot to arrange to get it done (we haven't been able to sell their house yet).

[badly_knitted]

Kind of them! Too bad you can't get the house sold though.

I knew my neighbour was going to do it sometime this week, he offered when he saw me struggling and I was happy to accept. But I didn't hear a thing!

Hopefully we'll be selling it soon--it's not actually selling it that's the problem, it's been getting the will probated/all the title and paperwork sorted. In the three years since my parents passed away, I've been sick, and my sister, who's the one taking care of it, has had two children, gotten married, and moved out of the country, so we literally just haven't been able to finish things up.

Wow, and I thought it was complicated when my mum died! Hoping it all gets sorted soon.

[jupiter2932]

Thanks :D. Fortunately, my sister's a lawyer, but with two little ones under three, she's had her hands pretty full, so it's just taking a while.

It's a lot for her to juggle!
