As One Thing Ends, a New Adventure Begins

Hi all,

so after almost 3 years, our group had been told that we are not going to make the magazine anymore. It's a sad news for all of us as we really enjoyed working on it. Unfortunately, due to financial struggles across all charity sectors, charities are doing cuts in funding and it also touched our group.

All members of the group has been deeply touched by the news as the magazine was their support network in their own life as they have some struggles of their own. Despite of that, I felt for a long time that I didn't belong there anymore. Over time, I've been slowly moving on with experience and life goals owing to college, hobbies and my energetic nature where I want to do 329042394 at once. 

That said, It doesn't mean I'm not sad, I think that I'm not hit that hard by the news. I took the whole bitter sweet experience as a beginning of a new adventure as I have more time for something new in my life for example: I would like to join a new crochet group and in the new college year make my own crochet group for students. Pick up a brush more often and do some art or painting/decorating without worrying that I will be missed somewhere else. 

I met great people within those 3 years working at the magazine which I'm grateful for. With some of them our friendship is going to continue and I believe that we will meet here and there again.

Roztěkané: Jak se žije ženám s ADHD

Title: Roztěkané: Jak se žije ženám s ADHD
Autor: Klára Kubíčková, Jana Srncová
Language: Czech

The book is about women's ADHD and also motherhood. It doesn't provide any tips what to do with your strange head. Nonetheless I feel it's supposed to be used as a balm for your energetic and chaotic soul, leaving you with a feeling that you're not the only one who is chaotic or too much for somebody else or taking 309483049 projects at once and other things which ADHD women do. And it's absolutely normal that your strategies fail when you reach motherhood, it's not a shame to ask for help of family or a specialist who can provide you with a better support.

Would I recommend it? Definitely.

Gouache paint - a mouse hunting a snack

After a month I finished this wee painting due to a fact that we have holiday at college. So I regained freedom for my own hobbies (for a bit :D).

Weekly schedule

 Hi all!

I've been using for past month my own designed weekly schedule due to a fact that I'm time blind (and it really sucks!). So I'm hoping that the template might help someone too.

Stirling Castle part I.

A week ago our class visited Stirling castle. How we were all surprised how cold it was up on that rock!

The castle sits on a huge rock on a top of the hill. I quickly understood why royalty and important people in the past chose this place - its location has a big advantage in the position where you can see from every angle if somebody is coming on to you from far distance. Many times rebuild in the past which had added couple of new buildings into the castle or it was reconstructed to probably suit the needs of that time.
