Who is keen for a Coffee Hour this week, I will hold 1 or even 2 if we have the interest in a couple of time zones that work for whoever is keen ☕ For example, 8am in UK time is 8pm for me. Or 6am for me is 6pm in the UK. And USA it depends where you are, but I am good for both mornings before work, or the evening!

The most terrifying thing, I actually spoke, face on, on the camera! Ok I hid behind a book for some of it, but I challenged myself and I did it! I just watched it and it was very cringe, I daren't watch before as I would never have published it, so the audio is a bit off, and I am sure my face looks unnaturally red but I did it! I had one major event where I did have to stop and start when I knocked a lamp over but I jumped right back in and made myself finish! I tried my daughter's iPhone to take some photos in the garden the other day, and the colour and cinematic mode are amazing in the newer phones! So much better than the old camera that I have!

I know I've been here for a while but I realised I had only replied to Peter's post and that was with my previous channel name! Thank you for the heads up @L T So here I am with my actual channel name, Lucy on Life, helping people to be happy at work and happy in life. Very much enjoying this YouTube adventure so far, love helping people and building community. Thank you to all of you for your kind support ❤️ https://www.youtube.com/@LucyOnLife

Today I was going through the posts and I saw that I had missed a lot; both new posts and comments 😞 I am gutted about that. I went into my notifications to see what I had turned on - and have now fixed it so I can see everything. I was so touched to see so many new conversations and questions people had asked, and had answered by you (I was MIA!), our community, and I am so sorry I missed this boat. It's a big effort to decide to contribute, especially meaningfully, in a community, or on a video, or anywhere - because the ask is greater than the human capacity to give to everyone who would like us to contribute. I hope I don't get a strike for a swear-y cup. I am watching reruns of "24" (I never watched it 20 years ago or whenever it came out) but I heard the only reason they got an R13 rating is because the language is low level.... Thank you for being here 😍
