Friday Coffee and Chat -- 9th January 2026

Ohh I am remembering my cats 🐈 of the past @Chasingsunsets , @Jynx

Will need to do something tomorrow unless we have no power of course @Jynx

But see what happens

@Shaz51 I hope you and your home are unharmed during the cyclone lovely. Are there measures you need to take? I've never gone through a cyclone.

Cyclone describes my feelings right now actually!
I need another coffee and to stop thinking about the unwanted influences that make me want to shake and cry [edited by moderator] 😓

I am so thankful for the forums where almost everyone is kind and thoughtful.

Sitting with you my friend 🧡 @ENKELI

@Cuddlebear I'm sorry, I'm not ignoring you. I have had a day and I'm currently operating at reduced capacity at the moment.

My appointment was hard, but I'm grateful that I got a gentle doctor who did not judge, or at least didn't make me feel judged, tried her hardest to make an uncomfortable situation a little better and allowed me to put in boundaries. She knew I was anxious from the get go, so she was slow and purposeful and told me what she was going to do before she did it.

It all turned out okay, no suspicious moles on my skin, this time around.

@Shaz51 thanks honey.

@Jynx Hello lovely. How are you? I hope you had a good break. It’s so good to have you back.

@Chasingsunsets Hello lovely how are you? It’s finally cooled down in Melbourne. It was horrendous the heat.

@Shaz51 Hello my friend. How are you today? I hope you got some sleep.

@NightFury Hello my friend. How are you feeling today? I’m so glad yesterday went well. That the doctor was understanding and met your needs.

I have a mole biopsy on Friday. Never had one before and I’m quite scared. My GP is doing it.

no need to apologise. I know everyone is going through hard times. I appreciate you so much.
