photography wise except editing (that is a good point for keeping you going) you can explore something else (for the moment at least) without the need of carrying a camera and lenses: use your phone. it is more than a challenge, trust me

Thanks! I'm working on trying to stop my brain from feeling like it must be thinking ten steps ahead all the time, and to slow down be present in the moment a little more. It takes time, but I'm getting better at it ...

I do use just my phone from time to time, but part of the enjoyment of photography for me is using the camera itself 😊

It's so good to have a creative outlet when living with chronic illness, I paint, that keeps me mostly sane! I'm impressed you manage to work and do the school run! That's a massive achievement. I'm so pleased you are getting glimpses of improvement, occasional glimpses here too.
