stan is good @Snowie i find theres some cross over between some shows but both really have alot of separate ones so its good. usually whats not on netflix is on stan and vice versa. i only paylike $20 a month for stan as well.

Re: not coping

Hey there @outlander ,

Sorry to hear the urges are there. Are you at work or at home?

Hope you are okay.

I'm here if you need a little chat.

I'm a little on edge. The neighbours got robbed last night/early this morning. I've been robbed twice before. It's such a stressful time. Outwardly, I didn't really feel it, but I knew it had affected me because subconsciously, I would jump at any noise.

Anyway, enough about me. What did you get up to today?

Hey @tyme

I’m at home in bed now. I’ve already been at work from 6-3 then horses and went for a walk and then come home to get pop from family and sort out dinner and showers.

I have been robbed before. It is scary. I know the neighbours around me felt it too and said they felt nervous in the neighbourhood at the time so I guess that is to be expected that your abit shaken.

Re: not coping

It's such a horrible feeling, eh @outlander ? I'm going through my CCTV footage to see if I can see anything for the neighbours. It's HOURS of footage that I don't have time to go through. It's on my phone. I feel like just giving the footage to the neighbours and telling them to look at it. But I don't know how!!!!

The police came over too today and wanted footage.

Anyway. I hope you feel better soon.

I had this really yummy chocolate cake today. Have you heard of Brunetti's? It's Italian. It cake was to die for!

When you are interstate, who is going to look after the horses? You seriously do so much.

Re: not coping

You can just narrow it down to the timeframe @tyme

No I’ve not heard of it. I’m allergic to many things so I tend to stay away from those desert type things.

My mother and sister will look after them. I’m just in the middle of fixing 2 bathtubs up. It’s suppose to be a hot summer so getting extra water avaliable to put in the shade

Re: not coping

You never cease to amaze me with all the stuff you do @outlander . My heart goes out to you because I feel others should be helping. Yet at the same time, I can't say anything, because I'm not in your situation.

You know what? It's a bit strange to say, but when I first 'met' you, I couldn't 'work you out'? Usually, I can get a sense of who someone is i.e. their personality, likes, dislikes, age bracket.... however, I could NEVER even guessed anything about you except being around horses. That's ALL i could work out.

It's a strange thing 🙂

Re: not coping

Thanks @tyme

Lol I understand what you mean. You know, you’re not the first one to say that. My new psych thinks I’m abit of a mystery person to that’s hard to “read” and get a gauge on and my nurse says the same thing. Do you have a sense of anything now? I suppose you would with slowly gathering bits of info scattered on the forums like my age bracket lol.
