Cuddle Party

Everyone needs contact comfort sometimes. Not everyone has ample opportunities for this in facetime. So here is a chance for a cuddle party in cyberspace. Virtual cuddling can help people feel better.

We have a cuddle room that comes with fort cushions, fort frames, sheets for draping, and a weighted blanket. A nest full of colorful egg pillows sits in one corner. There is a basket of grooming brushes, hairbrushes, and styling combs. A bin holds textured pillows. There is a big basket of craft supplies along with art markers, coloring pages, and blank paper. The kitchen has a popcorn machine. Labels are available to mark dietary needs, recipe ingredients, and level of spiciness. Here is the bathroom, open to everyone. There is a lawn tent and an outdoor hot tub. Bathers should post a sign for nude or clothed activity. Come snuggle up!

A tired woman with frizzy hair comes in. She grabs a weighted blanket and sets her project bag next to her as she sits on a cushion.

She writes a quick sign that says 'cuddles welcome, join the nap pile' & then puts it next to her. Then she falls into a nap waiting for people to join.

Yay!

* burrows into the pile *

Be forewarned - giving me access to cuddles *and* naps together, you may find it difficult to extract yourself should the need arise.
