Jewellery
Hi - I'm afraid going out of the house to anything is nearly impossible as I'm agoraphobic. I go out with members of my care team and family but have great difficulty even walking or functioning at any level. I also find social interaction difficult so a public class is a bit beyond my reach right now. I do attend a card making class twice a month run by my social work support network. I have taught 2 sets of Christmas card making over the last 2 years and then the clients join the twice monthly groups. I find them very challenging as I then try to become one of the group and not the teacher. I am a teacher by profession but don't like fulfilling that role very much anymore. I'd love to go to a class where I'm the pupil and not the teacher and will always have that as one of my many goals.
I will take your advice and try the "talking" to girlfriends bit - I'm rushing as I don't want him to come home in the middle of this.
Men don't always feel able to let you look further than them for support but I feel it is essential.
What other jewellery do you make?
