Hi to everyone
I cannot sleep and have to stop myself from walking out my front door into the night. I just want to go for a long walk but I know 2.30am is not a safe time for me to do that.
Is there anyone out there now that I can talk to? Bipolar mania keeping me awake and buzzy.

@Former-Member Hahahahaha! I don't know what to say! Except are you sure you don't live near me ... sounds like a family that live down the road from me...
Thanks for the compliment re: name 🙂
Have you got any more?

Ohh I got lots more. @Bunniekins Every time I think I have seen it all a student does something I haven't seen before.
Where I work, lots of my stories are about gang fights, drugs, SH, SI, CSA. It is a tough school to work in. Maybe it is near where you live, but I have a few more funny ones

Ok, so girl (she can be Y) @Bunniekins
rocks up to school with this tiny kitten. I'm like why the hell did you bring a kitten to school, it's not a pet shop.
so she says she brought it as a birthday present for her friend at school! I'm like that nice you thought of a present, but did you think of what your friend is going to do with it for the rest of the day!!!
so guess who babysat the bloody kitten, yep me! Birthday girl came and picked it up at end of day. But wait, does not end there!!
2 days later Y walks in with a kitten!! Again!! I'm like what? So turns out Birthday girl wasn't allowed to keep kitten, Y wasn't allowed to keep kitten so she brings it back to school. I'm like we are not the RSPCA, we don't take in strays!!! So in the end, a teacher that loves cats ended up taking it home but had to babysit the bloody cat again!!!

@Former-Member 0o0o0o0o0o ... that is sooooo sweet 🙂
and such a relief that the teacher took the kitten not the dopey girls... I was worried about the kitten as soon as the story started! I thought 'OMG! what is going to happen to the poor kitty kat!'.
You are obviously a very nice person 🙂

Thanks @Bunniekins but didn't have a choice. I was their year level coordinator so had to, and I don't like cats. Dogs yes, cats no!!

@Former-Member I hope so. You are a very good story teller. Must be your teacher training 🙂
Nell, you and Zoe have saved me walking through the dark streets last night. Thank you.

My pleasure @Bunniekins. You have distracted me tonight too. Was heading down a bit of a destructive path myself so was a better alternate to the other.❤️
