Hey there @StanD ☺️🌺

I hope your day went well out and about 🙂

please - no need to apologise for when you are available; it’s lovely to see your messages anytime you feel like logging in 🤗🌺

It’s wonderful that you feel so very positive about a book club/reading (or listening to books) group - that’s so great to hear 😊🌺

@tyme and @Jynx I wondered if you had any further thoughts on which thread to use or if ChatWee would be possible…what do you guys think? 🙂💜

thanks so much for your kind words regarding how I feel about peer guide volunteering - it really lifts my spirits and I really appreciate it 🤗🌺

I’m more than happy to help out however I can for the book club ☺️

Have a lovely day, and hopefully there’s a special place to start sharing all about books soon! 🌺☺️

Hey there @creative_writer 🙂🌺

Hope your morning is going well so far 🙂💜

how’s uni stuff progressing? I hope it’s going ok for you 🌺

From your message, I feel there’s lots of positivity in the acknowledgment of the feelings around your parents; knowing how it affects you and acknowledging how that feels sounds like a really good thing (despite being a difficult thing) ..am I seeing that rightly dearest? 🙂🌺

hoping your day goes well 💜

Hey there @saturnzoon 🙂🌺

I hope your morning is going as well as can be 🤗💜

Your message is so lovely - thank you for your kind words regarding support, I really appreciate it 💜🤗🌺

yes it’s so much of a comfort to have our SANE forums family, where we can be ourselves, without judgement and with a bunch of acceptance and understanding isn’t it 😊🌺💜

I just gently want to say that it’s wonderful to see your messages - please never worry about the structure of your posts if forgetfulness is happening; the kindness and genuine care is always shining through, and it’s a privilege to read your thoughts and experiences 🌺💜🙂

take good care and I hope your day goes well 🌺

and hopefully there will be more updates regarding a book thread etc soon!

Hey there @Former-Member 🙂🌺

that’s really nice to hear you’re feeling better physically, and I hope that continues for you 😊

The lawn might start to go dormant for a while now it’s been trimmed and the weather is cooler..? I have what it’s a stretch of the imagination to call a lawn, hehe! It’s more accurate to describe as an ornamental weed garden 🤭

sorry to hear the solar panels can’t really do their job while it’s perpetually overcast, however the vegan makeup sounds interesting - I haven’t heard of that before (I don’t use any makeup so I guess this is why I don’t know much beyond what the Avon ladies used to offer in their pink cars driving around the neighbourhood in years gone by! ☺️)

I hope your day goes well xx

Hello @Former-Member yes things are going ok. I notice you have been a busy bee in the kitchen making Turkish Delight. My parents used to operate a milkbar and we used to sell them in the 1970's. Don't know if they are still available for sale commercially. My parents also use to run a coffee shop several years later. Back then it was really basic you just put wallpaper up yourself, laid the carpets and basically just operate a modest venture. I've been back to those old haunts several times. The milk bar still had pinball machines and the coffee shop still had the same wallpaper but without the signeage on the window. Anyway we used to sell Turkish Delights.I remember the advertisement for them on TV. My brother was a toddler and asked mum and dad if he got Turkish Delighted if he ate it! 🙂
