@rav3n same, I wanted an iced coffee but it's cold so thought I'd have something warm. Although I'm rally thirsty and my mouth is dry so I'm thinking I might have one now that I've finished my cup of tea.

I had a guy ring me yesterday out of the blue and he was saying that he is going to just pop in some time, it really doesn't sit right with me cos he has previously taken advantage of me and that's not a situation I want to be in again. I told him he isn't just allowed to rock up without asking me first but part of me knows he won't listen to what I say 😕

@AuntGlow

that's tough, just one day late as well! @NightFury i'm with @MissGremlin, you're not failing at adulting!! adulting can be messy and hectic, and if you're not making mistakes... honestly that shocks me more haha. you'll find your own way of making everything work, i believe that 💙

also come join us for a cuppa if you're up for it!

@rav3n @MissGremlin

Just put the jug on, I'm going to have a frothy Milo.

@rav3n @NightFury adulting is a hard gig, we are expected to do so many things, run a house, pay bills, hold a job, be social, function in society all while trying to take care of ourselves. And plus we are human we make mistakes and we learn from them. Some days i think I'm smashing this sh!t other days I don't know what the hell I'm doing, ok most days is the latter. But the point is that we keep trying we keep showing up, we are constantly changing and growing and who knows just one day we might have our sh!t together a bit more than we do now 😊

@NightFury yummy 😋

@MissGremlin You are absolutely allowed to say no and set boundaries. And I am so proud of you for telling him no, but worried that you feel he will ignore this. Technically, if he rocks up without your permission, this is trespassing. Your home is your safe space, so maybe you could call 1800 Respect to look at some safety planning? What are your thoughts?

And yes, adulting is hard. We all need more compassion for ourselves and one another, hey? @NightFury

@AuntGlow it gets me cos i haven't heard from him for ages but then he just randomly rings, it really threw me and left me a bit shaken. Unfortunately 1800respect isn't an option but thankyou. I hate that my home hardly feels like a safe space, I'm trying to work on making it feel safer but its not a quick and easy fix given the situation.

I am with you... okay. 💛 What do you need most right now, in this moment? @MissGremlin

frothy.. even better 😋 @NightFury you ever have a cheeky spoon of milo powder? or is it just me hehe?

i still don't know if i'm supposed to make hot choc with water or milk or both?! how do you both usually have it? @NightFury @MissGremlin @AuntGlow

@AuntGlow just company. There's no easy or at times any solutions for my problems and situation and I've accepted that.

@NightFury I'm having a cold Milo but the tin attacked me when I opened it and now i have a boo boo 😂.
