Lizzie, I missed your live stream! BUT, what a joy to hang with you and the community even after the event. You did a lovely job on your first live stream! I resonated with everything people brought up and what you shared, as always. I am so sad you have to take a break from your art... and I love your adorable illustrations. A secret hope I have is that one day you will take special orders and I can send you this wee little illustration I did of the way I see my soul for you to create. BUT, I watched your video on why you don't take special orders and I total honor and celebrate that... and you! It is so important for us to honor our limits and it doesn't hurt anyone. I love the way you support Jenny; she and you have been remarkable for me, perhaps because we are all a bit older than a lot of the creators. I don't think anyone creating is as old as me. And as you know, and so graciously supported me, I started a channel... but having just semi-retired, I realized that I need a rest of producing and being out there so publicly. I kinda feel like I am in a season of hiding/time out. Which reminds me of your comment on Christmas being a huge "mask fest." I feel like in many ways, the last 50+ years has been a mask fest. I am weary, but so grateful for you and others who I can "hang" with without having to interact in the neurotypical ways. I am writing these comments while I watch and to ensure I don't go on and on, I will post this now. Thank you Lizzie!🧡💛🧡
Unmasking Autism is such an amazing book. I met Dr Price at my bus stop and totally fan girled like a year ago. We both work downtown Chicago. It was so cool 😎
"feel like I've accomplished something during the day" this is my whole life and where most of my anxiety comes from. I got stuck next to a guy that was really into the cricket on boxing day and I had to mask all morning being polite and asking questions even though when I looked at the screen I could only see the advertising and the darker shades of green on the grass. When I got out of there I needed a huge rest and I never went back lol I relate 100% to what you said about artists being our to go out and do workshops and talks but feeling like it's so much harder to do that and make an income with the anxieties. So jealous of other artists having that ability to make money from what they love

Lizzy, I'm sorry I missed your stream but watching it late Boxing day night. Hope you had a great day.
Woke up this morning and saw I missed your stream by just an hour. Glad I can watch it now!
