I'm into Jesus, and mental health. But mostly I post about crochet and my running.

67 rows in of shard 4 for the Kintsugi hope blanket
The weight of a thousand jokes. Say it again. Go on. I dare you. Say it again and watch the laughter die. Say that you'd rather jump than be in the classroom, Say that you'll hang yourself if he doesn't answer immediately. Say it like the words hang or jump are everyday words Because they probably are for you — You, who has never been where I am now. Say it again and watch us tense up. Watch our breathing stop, Watch our bodies tremble. Watch me count the seconds until the fear passes And feel the same shock I used to feel When the counting doesn't stop. Say it again And I'll remember nights I didn't sleep, Voicemails I can't delete, Conversations I can't forget. Say it and know that I'll remember praying each night That I'll see my friend again, Praying that they won't hate me for asking for help. Praying that they'll still be here. Say it again And know that not all of us find it funny. Not all of us are laughing. Not all of us are coping. Not all of us are breathing.

Jan 10 Stock Hill Mine Cave - Downstream Series. Duration 3-4 hrs Following on from last year's trip to the Upstream section of Stock Hill Mine Cave, this trip will visit the Downstream Series. This relatively recent discovery contains some sporting passages and notable features such as the Font, COVID Crawl, Early Dors Pitch and the Crystal Palace. It is quite a physical trip with a lot of flat out crawling, energy sapping mud, plus difficult slippery traverses and little in terms of reward for your effort! Just was is needed to blow away the Xmas cobwebs.
