    Lol. They can learn, but it’s not easy to teach them.

    Mine mouses often and fine cause the other paw has had multiple time periods of overmousing ouchies. Bur does your's paint?!?!?! (mine doesn't, of course, but as a painter it would be an interesting experiment maybe!!!)

    I did try painting with it when my right arm was in the sling from shoulder surgery. The painting itself wasn’t terrible, but the ‘only one hand’ thing really was problematic - trying to open up tubes of paint set things up, etc….was just impossible..

    i wondered because of the right brain left brain wiring and painting/creativity

    I still don’t really know a proper answer to that. I do have my partial left hand painting here, and I was pondering working on it with very limited vision … but the limited time i.e. 10 minute intervals made that idea virtually impossible

    But I believe so much of the drama and stress is people trying to find their happy place…

    Laurie you're a generous soul!

    Nah, my personal observations say that almost everyone experiences some drama and stress that escalates and shares out sometimes and that's probably normal. (I especially would like to believe that because I'm one of those venting 🙀🙈, though I don't expect friends to get involved beyond the advice they offer and no after midnight phone calls either!!!!!)

    But some people experience drama remarkably more frequently than others.

    And for some of them it even spils outside their friend and family circle for example involving neighbors

    They often have contributing factors, don't get me wrong: undiagnosed or diagnosed mental issues, addictions / recovery, financial and other stresses to name a few.

    Hmm.... interesting way to think of it. I tend to think of it more as something that I consume, possibly "do"; but not as something that is "my friend". OR, for that matter, "my enemy".

    AFter tonight's green soup production - seems broccoli has been standing by me :) 4 massive bunches went into the pot! I feel so green....

    It’s not a friend or foe thing with sugar and broccoli. For me, when stressed, it’s definitely chocolate over broccoli.

    I stood by my desire for chocolate in my times of need also… but chocolate never “stood by me” … as in helped me or did me any real good. Broccoli has. I’m trying to get my mind around that!!!!!

    Chocolate has been like one of those fickle friends who stab you in the back when you let your guard down 😜
