Help. Please.

Tornadoes can be helpful @Anastasia maybe a few things get swept up in there, maybe a few papers go missing, these things happen

Oh @saltandpepper no it's definitely no where near as bad now as it was 20 years ago.

Arghhhhhhhhhhh wish I hadn't said that, I am so sorry. What I mean is that at any age saying goodbye is hard. It gets better I promise!

Mine make their own choices now and have done for years around seeing their Dad - and they love him and want to see him as I am certain your boy will too. It sounds like you have great times together, making memories. Keep doing that, he will hold the times close in his heart.

I hope the therapy helps today S&P.

Can I just remind you how incredible you are? Think about the messages you have written to Centaur...please be kind to you.

Congratulations on your new account!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One door closes saying.

As far as getting up, you are not alone. I had to pull all the bedsheets, quilt etc off my boy today to get him up...but he did! You will too.

@saltandpepper

Haha @Anastasia so he wasn't springing out of bed then uh?

Well look, you motivated me, grabbed the laptop and taken it to bed and just sent off an invoice that I had to do today. Done.

Nah all good @Anastasia I know it'll get easier. This is the worst of it, it'll pass.

Yeah thanks I didn't really do anything it just fell into my lap which is excellent because I just remembered my car rego is due in about a week and I have exactly $0 set aside for it. Shit. Totally forgot.

Sometimes I leave therapy feeling better and stronger for it, but sometimes not so much. Depends how far down the rabbit hole we go. There's stuff I need to talk to him about but not sure, it'll probably go to a messy place if I do. Don't want to tip the scales right now.

Yeah Centaur... Kind of breaks my heart to think of anyone struggling so much. It got to me. I really wish I could have helped there.

Jesus. My emotions have been cut at the wires this week I think. Finding it hard to stop myself from crying. I don't know what's been going on.

Hey @saltandpepper

LOOK AT YOU - tick that box, invoice sent! 💪✔❤ You're amazing!

I hear you about therapy, in truth I cancel at times just to avoid dealing with the aftermath of it. So I hear you.

As far as Centaur - you would have helped. I think you were the catalyst in opening up the conversation. Sometimes just one comment can change the way in which someone is feeling - never underestimate that.

Can I remind you - you are amazing. I wish you could see in yourself what others see in you 🙏

As far as being emotional, I am not surprised with what you have going on...perhaps it's time for you to step back and receive support? I have no doubt there are many members that would happily support you. I will be there in spirit with you today, I think you are courageous to say the least.

Well you're just trying to make me cry now aren't ya @Anastasia haha

Thanks for the support, I appreciate it.

Yeah I do the same re therapy sometimes--speaking of which I better head out.

Hope you get your list checked off today and enjoy more time with your son when he gets back. It's good he's visiting your parents today too, a bit of extra love and support for him.

Don't forget your 5 minutes of down time today, ok?

Just for you - I'm taking that 5 inutes now - chat later @saltandpepper x

Hey @saltandpepper

Just popping in as I will be offline to go and see my Dad. Hope you went ok with therapist. I've had you in my thoughts and sent to the Universe to lighten your load...hope it helps 🙏✔💪

cheers @Anastasia hope your dad is doing a bit better tonight.

yeah all good re therapy, kept it light. At home now having a drink and eating pizza--pizza might be a stretch, it's flat bread with cheese on it, nice though

Hi @saltandpepper @Anastasia 👋
