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

Hello @Jacques

Please do not feel that you need apologise.

I know that there are times where life in the real world comes first.

We must look after ourselves.

We must not lose touch with the real world..

You are looking after yourself and that is not always easy to do..it can all seem like too much.

I support you and send my best wishes for your health and big hugs as my friend even when you are not here.

Yes older son would love to ride bmx bike with you..

He would be trying to show you so much on the computer..

Also he would be trying to give you so many things as well as food .../everything..

he is a generous..loving soul..

I think that you are both very similar..

Have a lovely weekend and enjoy your time with your girlfriend I hope that she is managing and taking care as well.

your friend Sophia 💜

Re: Living with Ourselves

needing to log off for a while all.

cannot be on here for too long at a time as back stiffens up where had surgery..

will have a rest and come back later

possibly late afternoon or evening..

where does everyone meet in the evening

soiree thread? what time?

tag me someone please

husband out at sports dinner tonight

not up to facing too many self centred people who talk about how good they are at the game and should be in a higher position..

They do not really listen to others just talk over one another.

a few nice people who seek me out as know they can have a two way conversation about life after bowls..

Sophia

I haven't been able to access my email account for a while now. I need to take my phone to an IT shop.
But thanks for caring. ❤️

Re: Living with Ourselves

Thank you @Adge

for invitation to soiree.

I accidentally dropped a very heavy antique brass clock on my foot yesterday afternoon whilst trying to close a curtain.

Clock on small table in corner next to curtain cord..

Spent evening with pack of frozen vegetables on foot..

unable to help son with gardening today...husband gone on own... bless him.

@Appleblossom @Exoplanet @Jacques @Anastasia @Former-Member @BlueBay @Emelia8 @HenryX @RedHorse @outlander @TAB @Mazarita @Krishna @Clawde @Adge @Shaz51

I have tagged you all to let you know will not be floating around many threads..

will be here mainly...

also with appleblossom and anastasia...

will try to get over to you exoplanet..

possibly the virtual thread as an escape into creativity.

I need to step back hence staying with those few..

Family stuff wearing me down.

Take care all

and look after yourselves if I do not see you here

Sophia 💜

@Zoe7 Sorry not much support at moment. Raising and Icing swollen foot

meant to include you in above response

Am on mobile. Sophia xx

Re: Living with Ourselves

Ouch @Sophia1 That would have hurt.

Brass is Heavy.

Hope you don't have too much swelling or a sprain.

Ice Pack or Frozen Vegies (same purpose) - Very Good idea/ Helpful.

I had to use Ice Pack years ago - For uncontrollable Nose Bleeds.

That was the only thing that slowed it down.

Was hospitalised twice in 24 hours for that

Have a good day.
