Something’s not right

Riding a wave

Riding a wave

Hi all,

@CherryBomb, @Former-Member or any other @Former-Member floating around Forum Land, will you ride a wave with me? I thought I would be fine doing something...but it turns out that the something has made my big feelings BIG and now I'm in a pickle...and there's nothing worse than a pickled turtle! I'm going to go and snuggle in my bed so I probably won't actually respond to you, but it will still super help me to know that I am not utterly alone on the wave. I don't want to tag anyone else because I don't want anyone to feel they need to respond. Thank you in advance for riding with me.

I super hope that the thing you have been looking forward to for 2 years is better than you hope it to be tomorrow little turtle

I know together we can all get through this. As hard as this is I have faith we can because of all you guys @Phoenix_Rising @CheerBear @Former-Member @Faith-and-Hope. Without all of you I really would have given up already - but with you I feel not only a sense of belonging but being part of something that really matters - because all of you REALLY MATTER

Morning @Phoenix_Rising

I have my reply for the DBT adventure that I wrote days ago but that didn't make it over there. I will post that today and will look forward to reading what you have to say about mindfulness whenever it happens.

I am thinking of you this morning. I am feeling lots of things at the moment and one of them is very sad with you.

I really wish you could share more of your adventure here, but understand you can't. It sounds really big and I hope there is lots of good in today for you.

Re: Riding a wave

Good evening on the ocean,

Thank you for thinking of me with my super giant adventure today. It was a lot harder than it would have been if I wasn't standing on a pause button, but it was still super fun. I will get to do it again in a year or two. Surely the muddle will be unmuddled by then!!!!

Only 15 sleeps now until NikNik comes home. I'm super glad that I don't have to wait in The Waiting Place alone.

I've been catching up on everyone's news this evening, but I'm afraid I'm too sleepy to say anything too deep. And anyway, @CheerBear and @Former-Member have written enough words today to more than make up for any lack of words on my part.

Fifteen days...wow, if we lived on Venus, that would be the equivalent of TEN YEARS!!!!! Hooray for not living on Venus!!!!

Night.

Ps. How's that for a first attempt @Zoe7? It took a looooong time. I definitely need help!!!

Re: Riding a wave

Haha re the words from @Former-Member and I @Phoenix_Rising 😁

Good to hear you had fun today! I have thought of you about eleventy million times today (I have to teach my new phone lots of new words now).

I don't think I could sit on a pause button for 10 years. Earth has to be good sometimes!

Hope you sleep well. Night ☺

Re: Riding a wave

You made me laugh, too @Phoenix_Rising. 😊 There was definitely a fair bit of word action going on today. I am super impressed by your first attempt. Go you! 🐢 I’m glad your adventure was still fun today, even though it had a muddle shadow on it.

Goodnight, @Phoenix_Rising. I’m super glad we don’t live on Venus. 🌷🐢

Re: Riding a wave

It is super tricky trying to sleep on a pause button. 😔

Re: Riding a wave

Nope. Pause buttons are not so conducive to sleep.
