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

Hi @Former-Member. Have you heard if a bed is available? I'm guessing it is pretty full this time of year. Sorry you got triggered. I think I know where from. How has your day been apart from on here?

Sleep makes a huge difference @Former-Member. Yeah maybe try to just have a holiday at home or as my psych prescribed the other month - hospital at home. Can you buy something nice for you to enjoy while your at home to make it feel a bit better. My day has been up and down. Finished the last of my TAFE work and had it marked so I know I've passed. Had therapist appointment and slept for about 2 hours after it. My friend is about to drag my backside to look at Christmas lights in the area with her.

@Former-Member In my week term I managed two hospital stays and being all over the place but luckily my lecturer was supportive. I used to love Christmas lights. I'll see how I go tonight.😯
I think the hospital at home was ok. I was given the medication I would have got in hospital and had phone support if I needed. The rest of the time I was just meant to do activities I would have in hospital so I guess watching TV and sleeping pretty much covers it. I reckon take some of that $500 your saving and buy a treat to have every day like ice cream or something - nothing too flash but just to remind you it's you time so you could make it something different to what you'd normally have. I think if I had a spare $30 I'd buy some mood reeds for my bedroom, a bit extravagant but it would make me feel better I think.
I'll be kicking around a bit this week if you want to tag me to say hi.
