Night Shift

Hey @Former-Member, glad to hear your son was in a better mood tonight. I think your son is probably just expressing his own unsettled feelings about the move and lashing out at you when he says things like that. I thought that post by @Faith-and-Hope about how renters make places their own was fantastic. I've been a renter all my life (even my parents were) and I've never thought about it quite as clearly as F & H put it before. It will help me to think consciously about that in my future moves. I agree that it is ourselves that make a place a home. Yours will get there before too long too I'm sure. Good to see you here tonight now that it's quietened down a bit.

@plasmo, haha, serenity now.

Good to hear your day has been full. Busy with hobbies, I'm guessing? Me too with the vid I've almost completed now. Usually they are just a couple of minutes long but this one is 7 minutes. Doesn't sound like much of a difference, but to me it makes the scale of the project much more challenging.

I'm actually feeling pretty serene now after an exhausted day. As is often the case for me, the late night brings much clearer and better feelings.

Dear @Former-Member

Your amazing that you write to everyone ! Has anyone heard from @Shaz51? @Shaz51 are you here??

Thankyou for inclusing ME !! Arlo is the LOVE of my home and I LOVE my hubby but...theres something about my little doggy....I think he's the Sane Forum group doggy......

Where is @Kurra ? Hello @Kurra how are you?

@plasmo @Crazy_Bug_Lady @Decadin and @Jacques

Hello @Jacques !! @Jacques teaches me how to write caring @Former-Member

I've been a little weird zone since this morning @Former-Member. This past weekend, I've been a little pocket of joy that I've found all these messages from Sane Forums that were sent to my junk mail not my inbox. I've also been taking it very slowly because of getting a different virus all the days of June and July (slight exadurtion but been quite ill)

I remembered something lovely that has been happening for me. Since I've been ill and my husband been ill, A lady has been making us meals and giving them to me and on the thread just started called "Our experience and stories, by Bimba2 I wrote about that. The lady has been teaching me about the bible. and I told her once about how good it is to get them and then, when she heard how we were, she started ginvg then to us!!

Then I made a couple of meals for a couple who were ill last week. On Facebook in my area .....

@Jacques and @Crazy_Bug_Lady my husband just turned 49. He wanted a mouse for his birthday and we got him a mouse called him Hughie. But we couldnt stop sneezing. We ended up having to sell him almost immediately to a little girl. You can see him at the bottom far in the left......is he there??

@plasmo, good stuff! I think we can find great life meaning in our hobbies, even when we are not able to get ourselves into study or the workplace.

Hey @PeppiPatty, we're both online at the same time, doesn't happen that often these days. Glad you found your messages in the spam box and that brought joy. Hope things are settling a bit since your husband came home from hospital and that you are feeling even just a bit better physically in your time of physical illness.

Hi @PeppiPatty,

lovely to hear you've had someone look out for you with meals. Sorry you had to let Hughe go. Never owned a mouse. Haven't had much luck with pets other than dogs really. Hoping you and hubby are both on the mend now

@Mazarita Wow you must have put some work in to the video. It's really fabulous that you have this in your life. I haven't been able to find anything that helps much for the past 5 years. I haven't held my camera or played much on my computer for a few years now. I can't watch TV and struggle with almost any activity often even listening to music. Next week I have an assessment for two classes at the community mental health centre, one is mindfulness and the other is like art therapy. I'm really hoping to get in, I need to find something I feel comfortable with again. I've had such a mind block with everything.

@plasmo What is your favourite movie?
