General chit chat

General chit chat

Hi@Faith-and-Hope, @utopia, @Mazarita

I'm still not very good at 'navagating' this site, maybe that's why I kept trying 'instant' chat sites - they seemed easier. But I like that messages can be checked, that it's not instant feels like some sort of barrier against instant shock I suppose - though I know this is a public Internet site so anyone can use it. I also think, though I hate the term Mental Illness, as I think it takes all the physical out of it, that the people that cause trauma probably suffer from it, so they would have just as much right to use it. But I feel a bit like typing I think, so I thought I might just blurb a little?
I've went away for a few days. I go every month. I visit the center of my Universe 🙂 The one person who has been there with/for me, their whole life & I believe will remain that way until I die 🙂 . . . & quite the large Family they have provided for me to share in 🙂 I go from, it almost seems like another Planet sometimes, my life is very quiet; to the center of my Universe, which includes 5 grand-children ranging in age from almost 2 to, going on 18; then there's the partner, the partners Parents and a large variety of friends 🙂 I often find myself thinking 'alein sound dimension' - there's so much noise on so many different levels! Every single one of them has every gadget known to mankind, and most of those gadgets make noise! And my World is a lot calmer, with a lot less going on - we're usually driving in the car, taking children to school, doing whatever shopping is necessary for the day in time for whatever seemingly endless appointment is due, . . . by the time my alarm goes off to make sure I wake up in time to get tired in time to go to sleep in time 😄 There's no way I could keep that pace up anymore! After a few days I find myself almost running away with my tail between my legs 🙂 But it's the perfect balance really, I do spend a lot of time alone - apart from my 3 furry, four-legged friends; but I am extremely lucky, my bond with my only child is of a strength I can't see breaking; I get a phone call or text every night & welcomed by a dozen open arms and smiling faces every month. I am lucky, I have a good life. Well, I think life is just a word, neither good nor bad. I have good experiences and I am happy 🙂

Niqua, I used to be daring in storms too but that was only short lived. Most of my life I have been very timid in many ways. Cool that you have a day in mind for camping. I wish you magical healing before then. Streaming love.

Hello Mazy,

I know about timid, I used to be able to get rid of it - just had to get to the bottom of the bottle and it would be gone. I picked a day hoping that it will help me get there, but I've been wanting to go since the last time I went - I wonder how long ago that was? My typing skills seem to have improved, perhaps the cycle is changing? I'm not feeling so teary now, just kind of flat with a touch of anger {towards myself mainly}.

I found another State Forest yesterday, my area is actually surrounded by them. This one wasn't by accident, I waste a lot of download on google maps 😉 I saw an eagle, don't know what sort - it looked black and huge, huge enough that it actually scared me a little and I immediately looked to my little dog! Those Crows are brave birds - they wouldn't leave it alone . . . chasing it out of their area!

I tried to find another a few days ago, it was even in my GPS - but said gadget led me straight to the locked gate of a quarry. I know State forests are resource areas, I guess they're using that one. At the time it made me sad.

My child and their partner have just been through their 4th termination; 5 children and 4 terminations - I can't imagine what that feels like. They fall pregnant whilst on contraception, I've never heard anything like it - and yet they're denied surgical sterilization? - because they're too young?

Living in the upload and download, streaming back the love

My beautiful Claire

Seems my fingers are working better but my brain hasn't caught up yet.

I don't have the words to express how I feel for you either.

Thank you

I love you

You make my life better
