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.

Sounds like she's a beauty @Kurra. I laughed at your description of her and so glad you spelled it out or I may have had another blonde moment 😝. I think bitza rescue dogs are the best. 💜🤗

Glad to hear things are on the way up @Zoe7. I hope you sleep tonight, from what Ive read that is the hardest part of your day. Hopefully tonight will be peaceful. 💜🤗

Try and do something simple and for yourself also. Keep reading and staying connected - no need to reply until you are able. Sending warm wishes your way x

That sucks. I have done a little house work myself today - cleaning up a bit actually lifted my spirits - sick of living in a mess - usually really tidy! Seems like if the house is a mess so is my head.
Same as with @Former-Member. Do something just for YOU also - doesn't have to be much!!!
Good to hear you have had a productive day Teej.
Don't stress about the Christmas break up dinner. Mine was tonight and I stayed home and had Chinese takeaway (and yes I ate - major win). New I couldn't face it - too noisey, too many people, too stressful. Don't stress about it now - see how you are travelling tomorrow and then make a decision. Do what feels right for YOU and no-one else. It's not avoiding just protecting yourself and that is ok! Sending hugs your wayxxx
