Re: Taking the plunge
@CheerBear Leaving a warm coffee for when you greet this big day. No need to respond, you will have zillions of things on your mind. I will be thinking of you. Remember to spot the kettle when you arrive.
@Eve7 @Former-Member @Appleblossom @Faith-and-Hope @TheVorticon @Sans911 @outlander and anyone passing through. 👋☕️💙

Re: Taking the plunge
How's your cup going @Maggie? @Sans911, @Former-Member and any other early birds up for one?
Thanks for your thoughts @Maggie. I'm unsettled but hopefully that will pass.
How was your yesterday?
I have a couple of pics fron our walk to post once coffee works 🙂

Re: Taking the plunge
Nice to see you @CheerBear . Unexpected, as it’s a very big day?
How are you feeling?
Yesterday was a day I tried to do a few things, but nothing worked out.

Re: Taking the plunge
That's a bit frustrating when things don't work out. What was behind that happening, if you feel like sharing? Inside or outside stuff, or a combo maybe?
How's your day looking today?

Re: Taking the plunge
I did wonder if your night would be a tossy Turny night. It’s all normal . Knowing you have a supportive team is comforting @CheerBear a few coffees, and your engine might slow down. 💜💜
The frustrations are the internal system. Counsellor and I have a few things to clear up. Communication breakdown. Unfortunately, she speaks to an audience, not just one, so understanding gets tricky and twisted.
Cleaning help today? I need that. 😁😁😁

Here's a couple of pics from our walk
Finding new life on trees that were destroyed in fires always makes me feel good
I love this one and spent ages looking at it. The glassy looking top of it and the way it camouflages so perfectly 😍

I swear I could see fairies dancing around this one 😉😁

I have no idea how this one is still standing so tall and balancing on that one, thin part especially with some of the wind that happens there. It must be incredibly strong, even in its brokenness.
It was such a cool walk 😊

Re: Taking the plunge
I am imagining the audience counsellor speaks with would be very hard for you to be in the centre of (if that's the kind of audience I think you're talking about). Very easy to have miscommunication and misunderstanding happen. That can bubble and twist around if it isn't cleared up. I replay conversations a lot. Wishing I could change what I've said or ask more questions about what others might have said. When will you speak with her again.
Yay for cleaning help today! I hope that feels OK.
I have funky hair colour again. It was looking very dull and sad so it feels good to have a pop on the top again.

Re: Taking the plunge
What colour hair @CheerBear 👍👍👍👍 A bit of head confidence.
Oh no, out of milk. Ours opens at 7 am, so thinking yours might be the same. Still a wait.
Yes @CheerBear the audience I’m in the centre of. One has already sent counsellor an email and received a reply. It will need face to face sorting, so Friday could be another tricky. Single is looking good atm, though I have no experience there.
You will be missing the crew, even though this is a better option. @CheerBear .

Re: Taking the plunge
I don't think I can wait until our little shop opens at 8. Since the virus they shortened the hours. I will drive to the servo I think.
How long have you had an audience for, if you don't mind sharing? Single would be a lot easier in lots of ways. Counsellor seems pretty understanding. Hopefully she can help unmuddle any muddle that's happened.

Re: Taking the plunge
Neon @CheerBear how neat.👍👍👍 Do you mix colours, or does it come labeled neon.?🤔🤔🤔
Is the stand out, don’t mess with me @CheerBear ? Or just a like it this way.. or both. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
You can’t wait till 8 @CheerBear , you really need a good start today. Maybe pick up a nice coffee on the run, cappuccino.
Since I was small. Just thought everyone was the same. Counsellor will cope. It’s a been there done that , kind of situation. Training happens to both counsellor and clients. She always admits to not getting it, if/when it happens.
I just saw your pics. What a lovely bush walk. Colours are amazing. Look where they grow. You can’t beat nature for growth. 🍁🍁🍁
