I'm hearing you @Former-Member. I could have written that second paragraph myself. Really hoping things pick up this week for you💜😊

Hello @Former-Member

sending you lots of hugs xx

going to watch grand design new zealand tonight

take care my friend xx

When do they get back @Former-Member?

thanks @Former-Member

sorry for the monopolising outburst, how is evryone else?

@Former-Member I'm really glad you were able to talk to your therapist about everything that was happening over the last week. I'm not good with change either, not at all. I avoid it whenever I can. I don't think you're whinging - we are here to share with each other after all, and to support each other. You seem to be in a bit of a better place today which is nice to see.

About the festival - it goes for nearly 3 weeks every year and is huge - venues all over town with music, theatre, art, food, cabaret, family events, stories and ideas events, comedy and more - some Australian and some from overseas. Too much to afford on my limited budget but I try to go to a few of the cheaper things each year. I'm particularly looking forward to the National Indigenous Music Awards concert.

Gentle hugs @Former-Member, you are needed, you are the kids mum, they will always need you, you have so many friends here who care about you and worry about your well being, please be gentle with yourself,, take some time to just sit and relax, take a deep breath, whatever needs to be done can wait.

you can make it, you always have, you are a survivor, you manage to get through all lifes struggles. you may not be strong but you are coragous.

gentle hugs again, you are in my thoughts

I remember feeling just like that when my child was with their father @Former-Member. I suggest getting out of the house for a while - take yourself out for brunch or something, or getting into a project like making a cubby for them out of big boxes or even baking yummy treats for them to come home to. I think you're still on holidays are you?

Thanks @eth. It's so frustrating when we can't afford to do some of those cultural things. It sounds fabulous though. I'd love to go one day. It's lovely to have something to look forward to. Wishing you the best for the week ahead. My son has just arrived so I'm taking off for a bit. 💜😊
