~ 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!

@Taali

And wishing you a wonderful day as well. Yesterday turned out a good day. Despite my natural children ignoring me as their father but our adopted Daughter and foster son didn't. i had a wonderful yarn with out ex foster son, who is on probation, about really important matters in his life. Things i had wanted to discuss with him for decades but he had always shied away from. Our foster son has a knack breaking his parole but he is 9 months in and he is still free. He told me he wants to come and celebrate my 68 birthday with me in 2028 when his probation will finally end and he can leave the state he is in and come back this way.

My daughter was disappointed she could not give me the chocolates she had bought for me and i could not give her the sausage rolls i had made for her and mum.

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

That is so true @DownMoreThanUp

I'm really glad you saw your foster /adopted son yesterday!

Maybe you can give your sausage rolls to your daughter on your next visit

That is, if you can get through the week without giving in to temptation.

I hope you have a lovely peaceful day 💗

Have things settled for you?

Tiny steps my friend @Taali 🧡

i made 30 for each! i had 3 for lunch and 3 for dinner last night. They are delicious. i put hers and my wife's in the freezer. i always store them there. Nothing handier than some home ready made sausage rolls and meat pies. Just over 20 minutes in a 200C (Sun light powered) fan forced oven later, and a lovely cheap lunch or dinner awaits. i eat them with my own home made chilli sauce, i love make chilli sauces from a mix of fresh chillies (and fresh herbs,) which are differently heat rated. My wife and daughter like their chilli sauce medium heat, i tend to veer more towards medium hot to very hot myself.
