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.

Hi 👋 @Mazarita, @CheerBear,
@CheerBear I have been so pleased to hear that you had a friend irl that you got to share with and that she bagged you out so for a little while the heaviness lifted. I truly appreciate my friend for that part.
Also good to read that smell nice friend has been supportive. I hope the ultrasound went ok.
I did my usual and volcano errupted over the last few days. Just realised it could be hormones 😬😏. I always know when hormones are having an impact as all my thoughts include swear words 😳:face_with_rolling_eyes:....and I am extra volatile. It’s shouldnt be this way on the hrt but I guess I haven’t been keeping them in my system long enough either.
Hoping everyone here is having an ok day 💜😊

Good morning, @CheerBear. Awake again at ridiculous-o-clock if you feel like a chat this morning. Hope yesterday went well and that today looks better.

An hour later and I haven't gone to bed again yet, @CheerBear, just letting you know I'm still here. Totally understand if you are not up for chat this morning, though. Sending hugs and love for this coming day.

Awesome with the sleep in (by your standards), @CheerBear. 
I'm good this morning, though I have been running on only a few hours sleep the past few days, something you know much more about than me, I think!
Last night I finished my first video for about six months! Very pleased. It is just a simple video document of my friend reading from his book at the launch in the country town on Sunday. But happy with what I have done.
How are you this morning?
