Living with Ourselves

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

Hi @Sophia1. Sorry to hear your head is foggy and confused today. Thank you for your sunshine and rainbows. You are very welcome to tag me - it's really nice to hear from you. I'm a pretty sensitive someone also, and even more so when things are difficult.

❤ for you

hello @outlander

was going to send you a message about two hours ago and then thought disappeared along with goodness knows how many others...

how are you? how is that hand? any more test results??? diagnosis ? medical appointments are the pits aren't they....

I am also thinking that you are very busy with your new art interest...looked it up online...very interesting..very much an area that you can put your own mark on too .....

haven't been able to set aside an area in the garage because of upcoming more inspection by appointments and open inspections...I do hope it gets sold finally...

am off to sister's tomorrow because of opens until sunday....on my own and no internet! no virtual friends! finish reading books...can't get comfortable enough to do colouring in...have a mindfulness book...did work for a time....nice book ....

will look for tranquil spot to visit mindfully and post

yes....can see myself here already....floating on my back in that beautiful clear blue water.....

dreams

Re: Living with Ourselves

hi @Sophia1

ive actually been offline for around 3 days. i havent been going well at all and shut down completely.Still not going that great but just a smidge better then the past few days. i have to do xrays on friday and see the hand specialist on monday. we were going to start abit more but wanted to check healing first before moving on. my nerve are quite shot so atm my exercise is to take the splint off for 2 minutes a town and stroke my hand on a towel so that the nerves start to register abit.

ive had another test done and yet again another diagnosis for my health will need to be abit careful with this one.

im not too busy with my art. ive run out of paints and havent been motivated enough to do anymore yet. but thats ok, no rush really. ive just designed my new artist signature as well.

oh bugger, i do hope a sale comes up soon so you can set up an art place for yourself too.

enough about me though, how are you going? hows your pain? mental health?

oh that pic is gorgeous- when are we leaving to go there lol?

Re: Living with Ourselves

I am already there..beat you @outlander

sorry to hear about setback with hand...good that they are on top of it..

Another diagnosis as in on top of one already? Don't remember that..

no need to discuss on here though...

main thing is that you look after you...have faith in your doctor and ask a zillion questions like I do..far better than dr Google...

taking time off is a good decision for self nurturing....we have to be on top of our mental health too..

you have been through so much for someone of your age in the time that I have known you..also have responsibilities re your family...

so time out for you is a must..

Do you like going to the shops...pictures...I know that you like horse riding...can you manage that at the moment with your hand?

A nice massage or treat for you...something to save for?

I must get some sleep...if not on tomorrow morning will be back Sunday or Monday due to house opens

take care xx:face_with_rolling_eyes:💝🌹🌾🌷🐾♥️💚💜🐴

Re: Living with Ourselves

Morning @Sophia1 wishing you safe tavels and thinking of you over the next few days

Its ok all is manageable -extreme allergic reaction to pollen dust etc and causes allergy induced asthma. Thankfully its winter.
I dont like horse riding that much anymore, then i dont like much these days. I can have a ride wirh my hand if the horse is controllable but id rather not atm. My art helps though when i can be motivated to do it that is but other than that the simple things in life suit me.

Keep thinking of those luxury places while your away. Take care and will chat more when you get back again.
💚💙💛💛💖💕❤♥

@eth

thought better to write to you over here...am trying to adhere to the preferred style of writing on the forums..as in sticking to the subject on each thread...

I copied what I had written and now is lost in cyberspace...

I wonder if all of my lost inspirational writings ever meet up in cyberspace...or perhaps collide...mind wandering

9 days to go until your magical tour...

can you tap into your philosophical mind and start imagining the different stages and sights of your journey ahead?

I will leave it at that for now..as you might just want to be left to your own thinking...

either way understand...want for you what you feel intuitivelyxxx

Re: Living with Ourselves

Hi @Sophia1 yes lost posts disappearing into the ether is really frustrating. I think they go to one-sock-heaven!

I will keep the focus on AAT/NDIS til the hearing happens and focus on details of my trip after that. Cross-eyed with reading my AAT file this morning.

Thanks for all your encouragement. I hope today has nice moments in it for you and that your post-op recovery is progressing well.
