Living with Ourselves

hello @eudemonism @eth @outlander @Bunniekins @Mazarita @Silenus @NameUnknown @Grasshopper3 @patientpatient @soul @Former-Member @Determined @Shaz51 @Former-Member @Friendconnect @Teej @utopia @Queenie @Appleblossom @Zam @perseverer @Janna @Owlunar @Former-Member @Former-Member

First of all I wanted to let you know that I have conversed with all of you at some stage on both sides of the forum..

It was my intention to close two of my threads and change my name in the kindest way for all of you...

I commenced this process on the 12th March and today is the first day that I have access to actually post or respond to anyone....I was in the last couple of days able to register a new name and like some posts...

I am so sorry that my profile ended so abruptly that was definitely not my intention....

In fact if I had done it my way.. instead of thinking would be better to be guided through the process....I would have just written on one of my threads my reason for closing my account tagging you all in....then requested account to be closed and username put to bed so to speak

I have chosen to take this path in order to protect my family's sense of safety .. privacy...health..

Please let me reassure you that this has nothing to do with any members on here...

I have tagged each and everyone of you because you have given me support and invited me into a little of your worlds...priceless experiences...I have felt heard and valued on here....Thank you all so much..

Moving forward ...this is who I am now and hope to be able to converse on the forum living in the now not the past...therefore no mention of my previous username necessary...

If you do not know who I am...that is fine also...perhaps all of the above is not relevant for you..

take care

Dear @Sophia1 with a friendly hello to @Maggie @outlander @Former-Member @Zoe7 and others.

Thanks Sophia for tagging me in. I have been reading along and keeping track of how things are going for you. But just not posting. I do enjoy reading all the posts from you and other however, so I appreciate being tagged in.

Re: Living with Ourselves

morning @Sophia1
cats do have a thing for hiding thats for sure! esp in unconvenient places or boxes!
our cats use to do that plus climb the curtains and run around the house like mad chickens.
i havent had to move with out animals so no interesting stories to tell im afraid..

Goodmorning @Sophia1 @Maggie @Former-Member

It sounds like your cat @Sophia1 is letting you know that there is to be no more moving lol They are very territorial aren't they.

I know having Cat's room ready for her when I moved really helped her to settle in - all her things were in the one room and I could close the door to the room whilst I moved the rest of the things in

Re: Living with Ourselves

@Sophia1 Thanks for such encouraging words. Of course you can keep it in your special place. I hope you have some peaceful moments throughout today.

I'm looking after a friend's dog. Her sister is in hospital so the little girl spends her days here with us. She's beautiful, and gets on well with my girl. She took me for a walk to the nearby park a few days ago!!!!!! It's been a long time since my legs moved that fast I tell you. Fell into the armchair when we ran home!! Staying home today.💜💕🐾🐾

hello @Maggie @Former-Member @Former-Member

I just wanted to thank you all for your support...

I am of no use to anyone at the moment..

I am going to go and lay down and stare at a television screen..hopefully distracting myself..

I know that you are all having a very difficult time at the moment...so wanted to tell you to look after yourselves first..

I am practising your advise @Maggie telling myself that today is another day where not feeling that life is ok is ok to feel..or something like that..

big hug all
