~ The Toolshed ~

So I've decided to create a new space, similar to The Ice-Memery but instead of being silly memes, these are memes/images/words etc. that I've found that are more like tools and insights for recovery. Hence, I welcome you to:

~ The Toolshed! ~

🔧💡🔩🤔

These are things I've found that are insightful, provide psychoeducation, or that have helped inspire me in my recovery journey. I invite anyone who wishes to contribute to do so! It doesn't have to be pictures, it can be discussion, questions, videos, whatever you like! But to start us off, I would love to share a nice lil stack of memes/pics I've found that I thought were really worth the read.

P.S. If you haven't already, you can also check out our Coping Toolbox for ideas and strategies to help you when you need to cope with the hard stuff!

So without further ado, lemme kick us off!

Will just tag a few forumites to start, pls do tag anyone you feel would enjoy or wanna contribute to this thread!

@Glisten @AlwaysMyself I wouldn't be surprised if Mr Murdermittens did indeed have a Kitty Krack Kartel.

I have the image of him sitting behind a large desk, meowing orders to his minions and threatening to send those who don't obey to swim with the fishes.

He's a cunning one, I am sure he uses subliminal meowing while I sleep so that I don't boot him off my bed when he sits on the spare pillow and insists on being given his fix.

Tomaatii I think there's a story waiting to be written about this...

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@AlwaysMyself lol! No I don't. I'm very concise when speaking - comes from working for a phone company for 17 years. I had to speak clearly and concisely to customers.

You got it with the name comment. As an abbreviation 😉

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Glisten yes, I think the hippity hoppity hoppers would be a nice touch as an entree.

A choice would need to be offered as to how they were cooked - I'm thinking fried, steamed or toasted.

When my cousin was very young she used to say harsegroppers which of course I found hilarious.

@AlwaysMyself given that you have tried the hoppers, how were they served ?

I think the strangest thing I've ever eaten is escargot. Revolting. And frog legs taste like chicken IMHO.

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Glisten that sounds like a plan - ie spend the morning getting your sweat on. Is that the $10 one?

I want the rain too but also wanted to do some gardening although it would probably not happen while my sciatica is sciaticing.

Left side this time which makes a change. Normally it's the right side.

I think I'll continue my diamond painting and then put the completed ones into a display folder.

I might get a physio ball too, I've heard they're good for relieving back pain. Kmart sells them for $9 or I could get one from Orbit Fitness for $66. NOT!
