@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.
@Phoenix_Rising and alll the others riding on those fancy floaties. i know there can be such dark nights and rough sees but with all this colour, sunset, bob the builder music and cake with a fight for icing seems like a party to me.... sorry i missed it all this week. i'll just lick the platter if anyone hasn't done that yet.
beautiful- the humour is theraputic. thanks

Re: Riding a wave
@mudsum you haven't missed the party. @CheerBear and @Zoe7 have been very busy party planning and the festivities commence at 2pm on Sunday here in Forum Land (BTW, do we know if that is AEST time???) in celebration of @Shaz51 and @Faith-and-Hope's birthdays.
Good night @Former-Member. Can you please check in and let me know you are watching over the ocean tonight? Super big thank you.

Re: Riding a wave
Yes it is AEST @Phoenix_Rising - I even put that on the invitation.... thought it would be a good time to cover all bases across Australia
btw what time would you like your party to begin?

Re: Riding a wave
@Zoe7 I am about to doze off. I'll check what time lunch is at the all-you-can-eat place I'm planning to go to, and get back to you tomorrow. I super super SUPER love that you and CheerBear have gone into the party-planning business.

Re: Riding a wave
That sounds like a good plan @Phoenix_Rising - I do super love planning with @CheerBear - and it is all because of you that we have 'gone into business' together - so thankyou for helping to provide the distractions for me when I really needed something to focus on other than my own thoughts
Nighty night little turtle - sweet dreams

Re: Riding a wave
Good night Forum Land. I have had a super fun day here in Forum Land today. @Former-Member can you please check in? Whoever was moderating last night must be H2O intolerant because they didn't appear here near the ocean. Night. Thank you for watching over the ocean.

Re: Riding a wave
@Former-Member can you please check in? I have giant alone and scared feelings because no one checked in to say they were watching the ocean either last night or the night before. My brain is getting into the whole "I am invisible, I am worthless, I do not matter" thing. Please can you check in?
