Sometimes life does feel like that - and sometimes it feels like there is just not enough space. I rarely feel lonely but sometimes i do feel very alone - and as el m said on another talkabout that is often when i am surrounded by people - and i just want to be out of there but do not connect. i do stuff like go to films or theatre by myself - or go for a run - or do a really punishing work out -just connect with myself. Can you do stuff like that for you?

And my funny story - is that i have to organise a party for over 20 5 and 6 year old superheroes and superheroines this weekend. It is to celebrate my kid's birthday. I love cooking but i hate baking - and the annual event of making my kid's cake is really stressful. First year i did a duck which everyone thought was an elephant so you get the picture. A couple of years ago she chose a fairy tale palace well that took me 12 hours! She wants a tower with a superhero on top of it this time - so supergirl can be seen at the top of the tower looking out for trouble to help. I was breathing easy - a tower is not so hard is it? Then this morning she starts to elaborate - so mummy the tower is in the middle of a city - and there is a park and lots of skyscrapers and hundreds of people and cars - oh and maybe a building on fire and a child who is stuck in an elevator...........think i am going to start baking now!
