~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Hey hi hello! Welcome to the second iteration of...

~ The Toolshed ~

I decided to make a new thread, as the first one had errors and phantom pages, and was getting quite long! You can still find all the amazing pics, inspiring quotes, and uplifting messages of the first Toolshed here.

What is the Toolshed? Ain't a place to hang your hammer! Hehe this is a space where we can share the things that have helped us in our recovery. Tools, coping skills, inspiring ideas, and messages of hope and growth, is what this space is all about!!

You can stay connected and up to date on this space by favouriting, or by subscribing to the thread - head to the top of the page, and find the three dots to the right of the thread title (next to the star), click, and from the drop down menu you can 'favourite' or 'subscribe' - and clicking the star itself will also favourite the thread for you.

Favourite threads are then always available in your favourites list which should appear on the right hand side of most forums pages - or you can go to your profile and scroll down to the 'Favourites' section under your recent posts.

If you subscribe, it means that you will get a notification every time someone posts something new in the thread. So up to you if you simply want it to be always accessible, or if you want all the updates, or both!

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! So without further ado, here's my latest batch!

Thankyou @Blackcloud my sweet ❤️.

I've been laying on my lounge for most of the day with movies on in the background.

I've just hopped in the car for a drive and possibly a quick shopping trip after.

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Thanks @Flutterbug9 ; that first one about just facing now - not "all of your life" - is very true for me at the moment. I'm making decisions without knowing that it will bring and whether or not that will be a better or worse thing in 6 months time. But trying something new that might be better is better than staying where something is not OK.

@Sadness2015 then you are lucky you don't have to.

I am grateful that I wake up each morning, as there was a time where that wasn't the case. I am an optimist, there is enough negativity in the world to worry about everything so I give the big stuff to God and He looks after it for me. I'd never get out of bed if I worried about everything that was wrong.

I am also a believer in the Japanese proverb -

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@Chasingsunsets nah the iced coffees don't impact my sleeping. Not quite sure what's going on tonight but I don't like it. (I'm safe). I've done all my usual routine and wind down things but I cannot for the life of me fall asleep.
