i encourage you all to join me for some casual drinking, social lubrication and light laughter right here in the beer garden.
Oh and before anyone gets up in arms about alcohol and its dangers the main beer on tap is VB or virtual beer
beer is the third most commonly consumed drink in the world behind water and tea
why not share the worlds joy with friends

I'm just a tired cranky b####, lol @Former-Member 😂
Not really. I do get pretty cranky though.
We're both not perfect.
Because of PTSD I really shouldn't have gotten married. I'm working on myself 😀
I went to psycholgist years ago for help with marriage (to get help to work on myself ) so that I could help our marriage. She said, why don't you leave him. What the heck? ????
He's not a bad guy, I wanted to fix things. She was serious, I hadn't said anything bad about him, just that I needed help to get myself right. I was shocked. She was in her 3 marriage.
I'm wondering if I'll ever cope with marriage.
I still haven't got my cuppa, lol.
You need to get to bed if you're feeling stressed leia. I don't want to keep you up. Sounds like you need relax time. 😨💜

..was the bit where they got in trouble with storm, descriptions of leaking gas etc re me re Blue Fin @Former-Member ,.. and totally agree re mental illness comment etc, but 'they' are way more different than 'we' realise .. apart from looking physically similar .. eg different ways of looking at things, different roles of society to help those that can't help themselves, not like here or God forbid, America.. Someone I met at uni who was 'older' and was from europe originally had done a Phd thesis on children of European immigrants, as in how they coped with their parents etc .. will try to find it one day when I remember ..lol @Former-Member @Former-Member
