~ The Toolshed ~

~ 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!

Hey @Jynx how’s your Sunday going? I’m about to take the plunge and dive into responses and try and catchup on some threads.

Hope it’s been a good day for everyone 🙏

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Glisten that's an interesting point. She doesn't smell like cat when we go out but it would be interesting to smell if I sat next to her in an office environment. Often when I've gone over to see her or drop something off to her the smell when she opens the front door is breath-taking. In the worst way possible.

We've known each other for 51 years. Her mum was my second mum. We've had our ups and downs but we have a lot of history. We were supposed to be doing a cruise or special trip for our 50th anniversary but she quickly told me she wouldn't be able to as she had just started new job, didn't have leave etc etc. I said okay we'll do it in 2025. So what does she do? Goes on a holiday with her friend she's known for 10 years.
We have a mutual friend who moved back to Qld but was coming back over the Christmas break and I said to her to let me know when she was free to catch up. I didn't hear from her and I mentioned how disappointed I was to CCL. She in turn said that oh yes, she suggested we do a high tea but I told her you probably wouldn't come. Not the first time she's done that either.

We used to have her with us for Christmas and she would always leave just after lunch because she'd double book herself. We decided to do it year about so she could spend the whole day with us one year and then the next year with her other friend.

The first year we had her over she left after lunch as usual because she had forgotten the plan.
I spoke to mum and bro about it and we've now decided that we will invite her if we are in town and if we choose to go to 2J instead to have Christmas with my aunt and uncle then she can sit at home with her cats for all I care now.

I love her like a sister, and I dislike her like a sister.

Aren't you glad you mentioned CCL now?! 🤣🤣

How's your day been Tomaatti? I went to Funnings and bought more plants. I love Funnings.

I KNOW @REDLINEZ750 i ran to the loo but missed then

@Jynx @ENKELI @Glisten @Chasingsunsets

then

i spent a long time shower cleaning down at the same time generously applying lots of very nice smelly soap over shitty body ……

the joys of Sunday …… I couldn’t watch The Voice because I was washing myself down.
drinking tea, very proud of my multi skills of washing body in shower at the same time washing bathroom floor. And I’m under 60 years old

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@PeppyPatti I am on a 90 day waiting list to have it removed. And because of liver issues, I already have pooped myself on a couple of occasions, so I am used to it. Lol I might have to start wearing pullups. 😂
