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.

Yay for humpty being put back together again @Teej and for the thumbs up from therapist 🙂 Great idea to stop that driving yourself insane loop 👍 I hope you can reschedule the assessment.
Today is a good day for me here thanks. I've been in the sun by water 😊
Anything on for you for the weekend?
💙 to you @Faith-and-Hope. Hoping your day has good also

Sounds like a lovely way to spend today @CheerBear . So glad you are having an ok day after a rough week.
My plans for this weekend are to stay sane and try to get some things done around the house.
I have a big home next week midweek. It feels like this time has gone so quickly. He’s had a great time away.
I do have a big mum thing this weekend that I may or may not be needed for. There is lots of big things going on for one of mine in particular.
How about you? Much on?

Sounds like a busy weekend @CheerBear . Smile on my dial that you are having chill, not heavy, not complicated time with friend 😄.
Its time for this black duck to try and do some thing. Kind of feeling shattered mentally from today’s events but a little calmer too. I should know by this afternoon when jca is and if therapist can come.

PS @Faith-and-Hope , @CheerBear , @Zoe7 my jca will be over by this time in a fortnight by a few hours. Not sure if therapist can come yet but it is good to have a date.

Hi @Faith-and-Hope @Teej @CheerBear Lots of positives for you all today - I am choosing to focus on them 
Yeah for some chill time with friend CB and the less awkward that has been happening.
It will be good to have your jca meeting over and done with - hope you can have support for it Hon.
F&H - photoshop was difficult for you to begin with now you are not only embracing it but enjoying it - WTG you
Been a long day for me - was very tired all day so that affected my energy levels. I still had a smile on my face though so that is something. Definitely a lot of rest over the weekend - going to take it as it comes and not put any pressure on myself to do anything. Hoping though by Sunday I will have some energy back as this will be my first full week at work.
