I have good days and bad days.<\/p>\n<p>We all want to assume the best, so when you see me posting on social media, you may assume it means I\u2019m getting better. Sadly, that&#8217;s not necessarily the case. It more likely means I want to share something and I\u2019m feeling well enough to do it, or I\u2019m ignoring how bad I feel, to do it anyway.<\/p>\n<p>When I post, people assume I\u2019ll reply to them if they comment. Sometimes this is possible. Sometimes I\u2019m just not up to it. Yesterday morning I posted and then had lots of comments and questions. Part way through the day I realised that I just wasn\u2019t up to replying anymore. So I stopped.<\/p>\n<p>Please don\u2019t take my lack of response as rudeness. I\u2019m not well, and sometimes I reach the end of what I can do. Your question might be something easy to answer, but I don\u2019t have the capacity to do so. Or your question might be too difficult for me to work out an answer for, then.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a question, please try reading the text of the post itself, some of my other posts, or my website to see if the answer is there. For some questions, the answers are already out there. Questions such as \u201cIs this book available in the US\/Europe\/France\/South Africa?\u201d &#8211; without meaning to sound tired or frustrated, I\u2019ve answered this many times already. \u201cHow much is this book?\u201d &#8211; the answer to this is readily available on my website. Please do what you can to help me by looking for the answer to a question. I\u2019m really sorry if I sound tired and frustrated. I just have really limited resources.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m living within a fairly narrow set of parameters currently. I can\u2019t do all the things I want to do. I have to prioritise. Sometimes, I prioritise rest. Sometimes, I prioritise a trip to the doctors. Sometimes, my family. For the Big Mail Out, I devoted a lot of time and effort to my customers, so that you could have your books. I didn\u2019t want to wait until I\u2019m \u201cwell enough\u201d, because I don\u2019t know when that will be. It really took it out of me.<\/p>\n<p>Please just bear with me. I\u2019m doing the best I can.<\/p>\n<p>Image is of the sampler from \u201cHardanger Filling Stitches\u201d.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vettycreations.com.au\/hardanger-filling-stitches.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.vettycreations.com.au\/hardanger-filling-stitches.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You may have heard that I am not well.
