I thought I'd start a discussion where we can check in with members and use this space to keep in contact. It's a space to be able to say how you really feel and it's a space for the good, the bad and the ugly moments in our lives.

im lost tonight and cant remember where i read what, or by who or when.
But I'm glad to see you @oceangirl 🙂 decisions are always hard to make.. but i think you are right to wait and decide when you get your offer. a week can be huge in my world as to how im feeling.
Hi @Faith-and-Hope i don't know if it was here or somewhere else that i read how hard things are with hubby and his cold/lack of eating/mil ... being mil. so much fuel for frustration and hurt. hearing you and with you.

My day hasn't "ended up" yet .... presuming you picked up my other post about running around in the rain looking for medications to try to bring WH's temp down .... it's over-riding the analgesia ....
Think it will be me on the couch tonight ....
Doing jigsaw puzzles at the mo .... and chatting with you now .... 🤗💕

Hi @Faith-and-Hope
Hi @oceangirl ... 😊💕
Its good to hear from you- and thank you for your concern.. I have been thinking of you too. Thank you .... 🌷💜
I'm okay atm- I had a specialist appointment today, and that went well. ✅
My specialist and I are more on the same page now, I am quite lucky to have her and she has been looking after me since 98. We have quite a long history together. ✅
I'm glad to hear it ... I think there was a while there last year when you were considering whether you needed to find someone else .... is my memory serving me correctly ?
I do understand your worries for WH and him not taking care of himself. 😔 Will be an ongoing saga fir a while I'm afraid ..... 😔
Hope you sorted your wifi woes and you were able to get the tribe to lunch on time. Got the wifi sorted, but the tribe were 3/4 an hour late ... 😠 I hate that, but teens and 20-somethings run on their own time, and if it doesn't. align with our ideas .... ?? 😠:face_with_rolling_eyes:😔
I have been a bit down over the last week or two but I am hoping things pick up for me, I was doing a day program at the local hospital but I asked yesterday to change programs because it was not for me. It seemed to be causing me more stress then being helpful for me. At this stage I am not going into hospital and I need to keep managing things at home and doing my volunteer work. Good to see you being proactive about it .... it sounds like you gave it a good try before changing programs. I hope things stabilise for you and that you're still enjoying the volunteer work 😊
I am just weighing up my options- going back to uni or just sticking with my volunteer wor just slowly build myself up again. I think going back to uni is going to be too stressful for me. But I am trying to keep an open mind, and I think I am leaning towards my volunteer work but my offer should come in next Thursday. I look forward to hearing how it turns out @oceangirl .... it's all a journey, and we need to find things to appreciate to help us stay engaged with the path we're on. I would love to hear about any adventures you are happy to share from the zoo ❣
