I am also grateful for the forests, trees, and flowers making the air fresh 🙂

Congrats @Former-Member

@PeppiPatty I am a moon worshipper too .... HOWL

Had a freebie movie ticket from Carers today saw "Light Between the Oceans".

Big triggers for me ... I had already read the book ... but of a brief & cleansing sort. Kinda knew it would be that way. A bub in arms just behind me.

Hi @Former-Member @Appleblossom @Former-Member @Former-Member

Yes, yes, I'm a moony lady......

I'm wanting to see that film @Appleblossom

It's almost Christmas .....

I got my teeth cleaned for free at this community Centre here in Perth and my teeth feel great. I was told that previous dentists have gone silly billy with fillings in my teeth in the past and my main problem is grinding and I'm saying.....thats cool how much is one crown at a time?? My the age of 100 years old, my teeth will be all shiny pearly and big.

I am grateful for the lotto ticket I have in my handbag..........

Hi @PeppiPatty, good to see you too

About a million second chances every single day really. Mostly I've just been realising lately how close I came last year, and earlier this year, to losing things that are really, really important to me... but I didn't lose them and now I have a second chance with them. So I'm grateful.

Hi @Former-Member and @PeppiPatty Good to see you both.

I wonder how our sister @MoonGal is going?

Ohh @Appleblossom xx

Our sister @MoonGal is doing a creative writting course and I am sure this is her last week this week xoxo

Hello @CherryBomb xx

Hello @sunshine26 @Susan1 @ujxjkpbr @Violet3 @Whisper @whitedog @Zulema

Helloooo, Sisters @Appleblossom & @Shaz51 et al.

Sister @MoonGal is well today.

I am grateful that I have come to a decision this morning to pack up the past, the hurt, the fear of Mother and Brother into an imaginary chest and bury it at sea. I just need to stop processing, stop exploring, stop trying to figure it all out, stop trying to heal the wound, it is terminal. It hurts like an acid bath in my mind and adds pain to my body and strips my spirit of all joy. The past is done. It done me. Time to cut the ties that bind and bury the past. A Sea Burial as fits a woman who lives by the Moon and Tides of bipolarity. I will still of course be a daughter, but I don;thave to be a sister. And when Mum passes I do not have to be a daughter, and that will be a huge relief and probably grief, until then I can be in role of love and care and must, because life demands it.




I will to live in the now.



I completed one course on character and have a lovely shiny certificate of completion from a University with my name on it. I am working now on the last assignment for the course on Plot and by this time next week I will have another shiny certificate. I have enjoyed the process immensely and learned so much about the craft of writing. I am grateful to have access (and that they had financial aid and waived my fees). I look forward to studying setting and description next year.

I am grateful to have the tools, the mind, the imagination to write.
I am grateful I have a loving partner who supports me and listens to my newly written stories as I get anxious and agonise over the words.
I am grateful I have £500 and a room of my own.
