Writing and receiving letters via virtual post

a quick check in @Oaktree

Are you alright?

I read that you felt you still did not fit in on the forums?

Would it help if I told you that I still have those feelings on and off.

In fact quite frequently before starting this thread.

That was one of the reasons I thought of the idea of writing letters to people where you needed to say something to them...at the same time did not want them to read the letter... an exercise in releasing feelings that were causing more harm kept on the inner. A sense of relief to release them to the outer.

Then @Lilaca came up with the idea Winnie the Pooh Bear and friends.

Very clever as some of the characters represent mental health issues of their own.

I try to include this in my posts on here. So if I sound that I am anxious or confused or depressed all of the time; that is my effort to acknowledge that there is nothing wrong with us if we have mental health systems. The issue is with the rest of the world who do not understand that.

Hopefully that makes sense.

Tigger is late replying to everyone today.

Tigger found himself in a foreign country the first time that he tried to log on.

He was walking around in circles trying to work out where he was.

More importantly what concerned him was how did he get there?

He had already received over the last month or so no match authenticated tickets for standing in the wrong spot?

Could not be for parking as he did not drive or ride a bike.

Perhaps it was for bouncing too much.

Today he travelled from the first unknown foreign country to yet another.

Tigger decided that he would go out and buy a super duper motorbike so that when he travelled instead of bouncing and being deported from his now home country, he would be able to outride the culprits.

He set off trying to do some research. One of his friends Henry Rush had tried to give him lessons several times. Alas, if Tigger has no interest in something, his mind switches off automatically no matter how hard the thoughtful instructor tries.

You could qualify this last statement by asking my husband

Husband exercising raising eyebrows even more as Tigger updated him on additional friends whom he is writing to.

He will often ask how much longer I will be in the office to which I reply I have to finish my writing to my friends whom I have already told you about, now also an apprentice post bat who currently has tonsilitis; A beetle with a Scottish accent and a very unusual sleek black, bilingual cat who is very close friends with a vivacious, long silver haired, fairy with silver sparkling wings. The fairy's name, just in case you are interested, is
Ariadne. She wears Visace gowns and Prada Boots. I must ask her about her handbag.

He does not bother responding now and busies himself elsewhere, keeping out of my way perhaps.

Even our grumpy cat glares at me when I return to the living room. Senses that I have been talking to a bilingual cat with sexy friends. My cat hardly speaks at all. Oddly it is when we are in another room or if he is frightened of a shadow.

The ( can't get rid of the colour now) message that I received was that I was not allowed to log in as I was not in this country?

I eventually remembered if having problems ;;;;;;;have you tried switching it off at the wall and then back on a few minutes later????

JUst ignore the colour. I will too.

Tigger

Oh how very exciting for us all.......

Please try to read back a couple of posts if possible as it is so very exhausting trying to write everyone's name.

Ah ha......

Tiggered has remembered that the black beetle with a Scottish accent, named Henry Rush. Are you related to Geoffrey Rush?

has helped him and given directions about this type of situation.

Woo hoo it worked. Thank you Henry Rush.

Tigger has received a message from our very special friend Christopher Robin asking me to let you all know that she is coming home.

Yeah 🎈✨🎀🍕🥐🥣🥘🥧🍮🍯🍷🍼🥛🧃☕🍵🍸🍹🍺:tumbler_glass:🥤

Hello @Appleblossom

Gum nut both of those look so relaxing and inviting.

One for outside under a tree and the other under the front porch.

How about Brahms lullaby? for Horrace and Aloysius who sleeps with one eye open.

Would also help calm Tigger down.

Who else has suggestions?.................

One day will get to the lullaby ...

one day ... or better at night ...

@Flax @Oaktree @NatureLover @Shaz51 @Sophia1

Oh dear @Sophia1 Tigger,

You are awesome!!!!!

Owl has to bow out of contributing due to lack of being able to keep up with who's who in the zoo, lol so to speak.

I enjoy fondly looking on and livye all of your creative writing stories but this Owl just does not have the capacity to be involved.

Owl wants to say thank you for making me feel loved and included 🙏💐💕🦉

If you find a replacement Owl, please feel welcome to invite them into your gorgeous bubbly group of friends

Oh @Shaz51

You really are lovely Christopher Robin...I wish I had more time to contribute. I wish I could find my inner child. I just have so much going on irl that I can't think long enough for remembering who is who and being involved 😔

At the moment this Owl is batting heads with pdoc because pdoc wants $1k payment for his one appointment. Owl is not happy, in fact Owl is angry!!! Leaving now so as not to spoil this lovely thread which I have done in the past 😔

Love to you all

Piglet is feeling very down this afternoon. Piglet is feeling hopeless and has allowed insecurities and anxiety to get the better of them.

Piglet had booked an appointment to have the COVID jab. Piglet's Dr has been pressing Piglet to get the jab because of underlying conditions putting Piglet at high risk. Piglet has been eligible since early in the rollout to get the vaccine. But Piglet is over 60 and can only have the AZ jab. And that makes poor Piglet very anxious. Piglet's partner died only a couple of months ago of a blood clot and Piglets brother developed blood clots 2 weeks after having his AZ jab. Piglet is worried about the AZ jab, because Piglet is alone now and nobody is around to help or even know if Piglet gets really sick.

Piglet wants to do the right thing ... for themself, for their family and friends and for the community. Therefore a nervous Piglet booked an appointment online on the weekend, for a jab at their local hospital tomorrow.

But this afternoon ... Piglet rang and cancelled that appointment, because anxiety became too much. If Piglet could have the Pfizer jab, Piglet would have had it months ago. But the conerns around the AZ jab got too much for Piglet.

Now Piglet feels silly and guilty for not doing the right thing. Piglet is worried that this means they will not be able to go out and play with the forrest friends here. It means Piglet cannot go and do the volunteer work that they want to get back into doing. To volunteer in aged care homes you must have had the jab, and rightly so.

So this means Piglet is isolating themself more and more by not having the jab. What is Piglet to do? Piglet is even worried about getting too close to the bat friends here ... they spread virus, dont they? Piglet worries about literally everything! Anxiety is a curse for poor silly Piglet.

So my forrest friends ... I know you want me to come and play with you all, and I really would love to do so ... but Piglet is not in a good mindset right now. So Piglet will continue to hide.

Piglet (Emelia)
