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.

@CheerBear . So awesome to read.
Edited AGAIN cos I’m a tired goose 😳. I’m so pleased for you that it’s coming together at the moment. I know you will achieve your goals. This is what I think of when I think of the wild child Cheerbear and her future.
Having a very quiet day today. I was awake all night again for the second time this week. All mostly ok though. The kids have left today for 10 weeks but I’m ok with it, just trying to work out how to juggle my finances again when they are gone. It is actually usually better for me to have them here for food buying, it’s cheaper in bulk and I get more variety for my $.
Also something left from field happened yesterday. I’ve been on an elective surgery waitlisted for nearly three years. Yesterday I got the call up. It’s for a breast reduction which couldn’t come soon enough but I have also had the call up for my hairy teethy thing 10 days later. They are just an initial appointments but is likely to mean that I’ll be offered both within weeks of each other which I don’t think they’ll do as they are both biggish surgeries. I’m also concerned because I’ve put on some weight but will have to wait and see. It would be so good to have that breast reduction surgery though. I didn’t think it would happen.
Hi and hugs to all 💜🤗

So happy for you @CheerBear What an achievement. You earnt your movie night. I'm imagining you waking full of hope and happy anticipation this morning.
@Teej Great that you have appointments for both things. Hopefully you can get them both to be scheduled in a way that you don't have to miss out or wait longer on either. And hoping you got some sleep last night.
