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.

Re: Riding a wave

Good night @CheerBear. I have big missing lots of people feelings and I am soothing myself by thinking about how cool it is that you and I are not-friends. So very many people have walked out of my world and I am never ever going to do the friend thing again. I am so glad that our oceans collided and that we can be not-friends. Night. 😊

Re: Riding a wave

@Former-Member can you please check in and let me know you are watching over the ocean tonight? I have giant missing-people feelings. They are all blurring together in one big puddle of grief, along with grief over lost opportunities and lost hope. I feel so utterly stuck now. I'm terrified of trying to start over with therapist-take-eleven next week. I would have to SUPER click with her in order to sack (A)...even though I know (A) can't actually help me. I feel so so SO stuck. Thanks for watching over the ocean tonight.

Re: Riding a wave

I have super giant missing-a-bazillion-people feelings. I am super super grateful for Forum Land but I still super miss all the people who have been in and then walked out of my real world. I feel super alone on the ocean tonight. 😔😔😔

Re: Riding a wave

Hello @Shaz51,

Thats too funny, I can certainly understand the need to have a 'secret' word working in child care would be stressful at times. 25 years is a long time too.

I am not the Mod right now, just jumped in to respond to you. I will be back riding the waves with you all early tomorrow.

Hope your day goes well.

Take care, Amanda

Re: Riding a wave

@Former-Member I just saw you floating around Forum Land. Can you please check in here on the ocean? Whoever was moderating last night must be H2O intolerant because they didn't respond to my request for a check-in. I am still super missing CherryBomb and now I'm missing NikNik too, even though I keep telling myself she will be back super soon. I super hate change. I super wish routines could always stay the same forever.
