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.

one of my favourite images of all time (not taken by me). It’s a happy place image.
I just realised that this is why images fill my iPad and phone. I can’t visualise anywhere or anything so I rely on images for that. She says smacking her forehead 🤦♀️ for only just connecting this :face_with_rolling_eyes:. You learn something about yourself when you least expect to.

Just checking in now also. Thanks for the messages @Shaz51 @Bimby2 @outlander @Maggie and @Teej. I hope you're all doing well enough ❤
@Teej So nice to hear about your spring cheer. I have been spending some time in the garden too. I can feel the weather is changing and it's very welcome. We haven't had the heater on for the last two nights and the windows have been open throughout the day and into the evening, which I really appreciate being able to do.

Thanks @CheerBear for checking in and sharing 💜. It was good to hear from you and that friend is proving a pretty good antidote for banana head 😊. Your garden cheer is lovely. I want to get back in the garden again too to do work not just admire my pretties and walk back inside, just haven’t made it lately.
Tomorrow is the appointment day unless she cancels :face_with_rolling_eyes:. I’m trying not to be to caught up in it but I guess there are times I am. I am going ok and had a pretty stable week by my standards but I think I’ve made things pretty small and caged in for that to happen. Brain is a little in hyperdrive though reflecting and thinking through things.
I had a teej novel thesis lecture :face_with_rolling_eyes:🤦♀️ in my head after reading your rave post but to tell the truth I haven’t got it in me to write just now so you don’t have to suffer after all 😜.
@Maggie, @outlander, @Shaz51, @Bimby2
I hope today finds you going ok. @Maggie I read some of your thread and I’m so glad there is some positive. I haven’t really caught up on much else for now.
Some spring cheer for you all.
Hugs 💜🤗
