Hugs @MissGremlin

@Chasingsunsets i tried to still keep busy and things need to be done around here. Hope you can find the time to do the things you need to sweet.

That's great that she enjoyed it ☺️. Maybe weather/daylight savings has messed things up a bit? Would love to chat later if you are up for it ☺️

Hey @NightFury ,

Maybe you needed some piece an quiet?

In the past, you got school holidays. You don't get school holz now, do you?

I just came back today.... bit of a sore throat because it was cold last night.

Just swining past to see how you are!

Thankyou @NightFury sweet ❤️

Hi @tyme I hope your sore throat doesn't turn into anything too bad.

I needed some peace and quiet, which is why I worked from home yesterday, but for some reason, that peace and quiet feels...unsettling today and I feel isolated and lonely in it.

I don't get school holidays any more with my new job, no. Just the normal 4 weeks leave.

So today is my sons 18th birthday and right now I should be at a surprise birthday party dinner for him. But I can't cos my anxiety is too much, the thought of being around lots of other people in a noisy and bright environment and also eating food that isn't prepared by me is far too overwhelming.

But i feel like such a failure, i feel like I'm letting him down by not being there. I'm trying to hold back the tears cos I already feel crappy enough without making the headache worse by crying. But it all feels so heavy.

I know my son understands and that I can catch up with him another time but it hurts that I can't be there to celebrate with him on his special day.

I'm safe and I've grabbed some origami paper to try to distract myself.

Sitting with you @MissGremlin 🙏

It sounds so tough and emotional @MissGremlin big hugs to you, my friend.

Is there anything you would like from us that might be helpful tonight @MissGremlin 🙏

@Chasingsunsets just connection and company.

I had a phone call earlier that really frustrated me.
