@tonys Done me lumbar spine, been to physio today, he helped a bit and I done me exercises, and I am lumbering along less awkwardly. Seems like Tango and Skating are not on for me irl. Did Right knee, then left ankle then lower back. Did it at tango with a gorilla partner throwing me around der ... Mebe a bit of virtual skating could be fun tho. I'd love those skates. Thank you kindly. Used to skate with me dad in 1970!

@tyme Love your chipping in.

This is one link with the approach I mentioned.

I have done various groupwork trainings yada yada ... yonks ago. I always liked this model as it allows for discussion and debate and implies things heating up while working out directions. Clamping down and censorship which seems the latest fad, is unlikely to be helpful in the long run, as human beans are diverse, even if we are all trying to play along nicely. Stuff happens. Just wot I have seen watching from the edges. Happens everywhere. No need to take it personally. The approach is meant for management but I think it has application to any team or community building enterprise. I do believe safety can be illusory. We should do our best, but insurance policies are often a rip off.

Yep size is no indicator of scariness, I can certainly hurl an egg. Or a tomato! And I'm 5'3" haha! Can't believe you're rotting them though, you absolute ratbag!

Take care @tonys, I hope you're talking about a tomato attack rather than a MH one but either way, cover your head and look for shelter from the storm. And try and give back as good as you get!

That applies to tomatoes, rotten eggs, and fighting negative thoughts with great ones about the people you love and the things that bring you joy. If you can. It's bloody hard, I am trying to as well. But making some progress.

It's a joy to finally connect with you. Has brought a smile to my face on a troublesome day.

Hey @Former-Member , hope you are okay ? *looking for @Former-Member

@tyme We have become a bit of a rowdy bunch and derailed the thread a bit!

I was trying to get back to the roots of the thread in terms of just talking, philosophising about modes of travel, without our issues. But I'm an interloper so I can only really guess at the roots.

Perhaps we should start a thread for random questions, scenarios and thought experiments 🙂 minimal baggage, a place where we can just be and forget our problems

Go for it and tag me in! @LeChuck

@LeChuck you are so not an interloper and so welcome ...

I am sitting here ATM reading this thread and chuckling as there's so much sweet in it

Ur so caring and trying to welcome everyone which is very much my vibe (how bad is exclusion....)

@ well I am so sorry to bother you with this again @tyme @Appleblossom @moderator And I hope you dont mind me sending you a copy too @EternalFlower @Former-Member as you have been a big part of my coming out of my shell on your thread. I was having a lovely time trying to unwind after last nights clobbering. . . Even made a new friend. You have all seen me Very Clearly asking this person not to contact or tag me 'ever again'. and ignore my writing to others if they dont like it. 10.30 pm another unwelcome kick in my head

Is it that I made a new friend tonight ? Is It attention seeking. Am I breathing their air. ? I am hopping you will find out what on earth it was I did _-- TONIGHT __ to deserve a second dose of this person and a second lovely evening to be ruined. Is this what happens when we try to be nice the first time. and hope it just goes away. My carers does say I back down to easy and people like an easy target. . .? I even wished this person well and still do.

I have a awful lot of problems and some obvious physical disabilities to cope with and I dont Burdon or take it out on others. I do try hard to leave things a little more shiny than I found them.

You do all know this will never ever stop unless I go. tickers in the red and my support worker and book keeper is pretty upset .

And It should be more than obvious I cant come back to someone watching my every move for a slip up. No one can live like that. This person wants to watch people for slipups. well I'm not perfect. easy target, so I wish you all well.

My gut said stay of the forum, but I trusted didnt I. Will do the audit thing and apart from that, stay away for a while. A phone call to my book keeper from sane might be nice as I dont think I even want to look at my emails any more. I have given sane that number so it should be in their records on my previous emails to them. Wish all of you the best. maybe one day I"ll try again. tonys mb 1 oh yess thankyou chuck you cheered me up more than you relize @LeChuck good luck mate

Are u ok @tonys ? I noticed no one had replied. I have had a really crappy day. Sux being homeless. Wouldn't wish it upon worst enemy. I struggle more than humanly possible. I wanted to check in with you. Everyone here cares about you, your bookkeeper & your support worker.

You are a ray of sunshine on these forums. Everyone here cares about you. Like they say, there's no easy life, just life.

I'm sure you will find a candle somewhere amongst all that darkness.

Think of your friends & stare into the flame. Better days for you ahead.

Nights, they are rough. You have supports with U tho.

If I had a bookie as you describe....

I won't say anymore,...,...,...,,, that's a story for another day ! ! !

Hey @tonys I did not see clobbering #2 unless it was deleted ? These forums are moderated but I don't know how.

I'm glad U logged on that computer again and we're having a. Good time brining warmth and light and I hope being warmed and brightened in return.

I was grateful that you wrote you were proud of me. I don't know if you realise how much this means to me.

Im a city girl and don't know much about farm life but 2 years ago I went alone to stay with a lovely couple on their farm. No wifi and they made their own butter and milk , they were so sweet. I'd sit out in their shed and look over the whole world going dark. It was so quiet. I felt grateful.

Ur pain hurts me and I feel it. Please take care

That is a beautiful story @EternalFlower & thankyou for supporting @tonys in their time of need. I REALLY don't want my words to cause any further turmoil to them. I guess we have to all tread very lightly. As @Former-Member stated, we never really know who we are talking to behind this screen.

I can't chat long. I have an appointment today, with an exceptionally beautiful woman 🤞👍⭐

I'm not going to cause any further damage here. I get, that people are intimidated by me.

I try my best to make others feel safe. Nobody ever deserves to be abused.

Do they?

A small gift.

It helps me when I'm lost & needing help.

Anyway, maybe it'll do the trick.

One last trick.

@tyme @tyme @Appleblossom

And all those who have ever been here for me . I wish you all the peace joy & health in the world.

Oh...& Don't forget

Take Care of Yourself! 😊
