~ 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!

@TAB You're going to bone up?

Tell me, how does one do that?

I'm waiting to see if my niece who has been ghosting me follows up with a call today.

I really hope so!

Yes attack that yard 👏

Then you'll have earned a beer or two.

And you may even watch the football tonight.

I hope everyone is well and safely wherever they are on their journey.

Let's bop this thing called MI on the head.

Bone up" is an informal phrasal verb that means to study a subject intensively or refresh your memory on a topic quickly, usually to prepare for a test, interview, or specific task.

@TAB @Taali I wore my Dockers shirt with pride today. Ex friend is a Cats supporter, I was tempted to take a selfie of me wearing the shirt and giving the finger to her. I still have anger toward her, evil bitch.

Hope you pulled up okay this morning Tabby. Taali I hope your Saturday has been good too ❤️

I am in considerable pain with my neck, shoulder and now sciatica pain as well so I am not doing much. This is all because I had to lug a shopping trolley around Coles this afternoon to do the shopping.

Very tired after taking strong pain meds so might have an early one and hope for a less painful Sunday!

Hope y'all have a good one 😁🥰

@Taali ha ha, twist and shout indeed! Love it!

In response to: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Bummer about the pain.

I hope medication helps.

Yay for you, resisting the temptation to send the selfie. You're the bigger person!

I'm watching a very crappy 💩 game as we communicate ( I never quite know what to say)

But am super happy that our rivals are doing sooooo badly

Oh baby!!!!

I had a nice lunch with my sister and her husband 💕

I really hope you can get some relief and sleep tonight @ENKELI

Go gently dear friend 🧡 Taali

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

@Taali yes I decided to be the mature one again lol!

Glad you had a nice lunch with your sister and her hubby, how is he going?

Thanks gorgeous, I am pretty sure once I take my night meds I'll be happily in the land of nod. I have some muscle relaxants I can take if necessary, and all being well I'll be able to book in for physio in the next fortnight.

I was putting away some weetbix and the lid came off as the container fell on me. I am brushing out weetbix crumbs from my hair as we speak! 🤣

I tipped the Lions to win but I would be happy to lose because it's the Crows.

In response to: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Re: ~ Toolshed 2: Power Tools for Recovery ~

Good to hear re you having meds on hand. @ENKELI

Can you not see your physio sooner?

Oh! the wee weetbix . YUCK!!

Tex Walker just got a goal which I suppose is nice???

My brother-in-law is going okay all things considered.

I wish for a relatively comfortable day for you tomorrow.

Please take care of yourself lovely one 💕

Taali 💙
