~ 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!

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Glisten my 82 year old mother is more active on Farcebook than I am. She is always asking me if I saw some post or other. I have a small group of friends but use it more to keep in touch with my US friends.

As for the house sitting gig, the puppy pads reminds me of CCL (crazy cat lady). One of her cats gets bullied by the others so she has resorted to crapping on the floor in various places. My bro was cat sitting for CCL one time and after stepping in cat poo more than once, got really quite terse.
She doesn't have 3 chandeliers but the house has always been cluttered with a layer of cat hair over everything. She and her mum were never the best at housework. Ironically her toilet is a bit dodgy and she only has 1. I was hurt when she didn't ask me to cat sit while she was swanning away on her cruise but on reflection I am kind of glad she sucked some other friend into doing it.

I'm often tempted to contact the council and let them know she has more than her allotted amount of moggies. They are not groomed regularly and most of them are medium to long hair. To spend over a grand on a pure breed only to have it with matted hair.

How do people live with the stink?!

@MissGremlin Please don’t feel sorry it’s totally OK not to be able to reply.

Always good to listen to your body and breaking up a shopping trip into 2 is a great way of doing it. I hope it goes well and you’re able to get what you need.

It’s a tough day for me today as I get through this awful cross taper. Being on the forums does help and makes me feel like I have understanding people around me.

Im sure he will enjoy his groom he does like a bath and a little pamper! They’re coming a bit earlier at 2:30 today. 🙂
