Linda G Hill stream of consciousness Saturday prompt. Where we are given a word and just write. No overthinking or editing (okay maybe typos). Check it out for full details. “hat” is the word for the this week.
We wear many hats. I don’t think we actually realize how many. Not just the ones we know like mother, father, sister, brother, nurse, lawyer or blogger. You get the idea. Also the “hat” of being a calming influence in the family. The “go to” person for tech help. The friend up for anything.
When we think of all we do and offer I think we have more “hats” then we realize.
You can always start now!

The hats worn in a week would scare a Hatter, even a sane one. This week I have been Mother, Wife, Grandmother, apasser on of the most life changing news. Supporter, councillor, homeowner, tear wiper stiff-upper-liper . Cleaner and fur-baby physiotherapist. I have been ace crier and carer. I have been a shoulder to hold up the world. Your post though light-hearted resonated with my hats this awful week that has altered our lives for ever. At one point I unzipped the hood from my jacket and sobbed where nobody seen and nobody heard . Xx

Oh Ellen I don’t know what to type. Your “hat” list was exhausting and I have no doubt you missed a few. Creating space, supporting blogging friends are two more hats that you wear. I do think a good sob/cry is often needed. It is hard but this year I’m trying to put some “hats” aside for a bit. Hard but creating a few boundaries. Again hard as I so don’t deal with any type of confrontation. Well I guess I did know what to type. Deep breath. Know people are rooting for you. Take care.

I love reading your SoC writings because as soon as I see the prompt I think of what I would write and its never the same!
I love how you’ve talked about the many hats we wear, and I think you are right we don’t even know all the hats we wear sometime, or the hats that others place on our heads.
