Lift Chi Up. Resilience day 2. A very quiet dinner with Nick Curnow and another noted introvert! Nick thinks he has found a kindred spirit. Deadheading, watering the new plantings, watching the sunset with Katie.

Lovely reflective listening from Dash. I was reiterating that he was welcome to be with the grown ups in the kitchen but that he couldn’t have the tablet playing at the same time. He asked why and, without particularly thinking about it, I said that the extra noise made me feel hassled. And he said ‘So you feel uncomfortable because it’s like you’re trying to do too many things at once’. Which was actually a much more accurate description of the feeling than ‘hassled’.
