I get that. Internet issues are a real pain

I guess I'm not doing as good as I thought I was. My family situation is awful. I still feel motivated at least.

FloatThruThis · Nov 10, 2023 at 03:31 PM

I feel okay. I’m having a good day.

Ford Puma · Nov 11, 2023 at 11:16 AM

After a tough week, I am happy to say today I am content with things.

emily1890 · Nov 12, 2023 at 11:35 AM

I have to share my news (I am sharing it with anyone who will listen, really!)

A review I wrote of a local mental health service highlighting it's weaknesses and staff attitude actually got published. Not only that, but the rating for the service is currently requires improvement

This is brilliant!

Also, I put up some Christmas lights today, some blue ones over my computer. They look beautiful

emily1890 · Nov 13, 2023 at 07:53 AM

I feel so frustrated

This person I know literally can't accept the fact that she's not perfect. (Far from it), and always lays the blame with someone else

I am so fed up of her

Managed to by accident hurt my foot moving some furniture cause its getting collected tomorrow and I needed to move the stuff for going, downstairs, so Willow isn't freaking out and feel cornered then scared bite the people collecting it, one of the bulky bastard chairs decided it was going to whack me on the foot on the staircase and as a result it's painful to walk on that foot now

Crazy Hitch · Nov 13, 2023 at 08:09 PM

I'm just kinda blah really

SpaghettiLegs · Nov 14, 2023 at 08:08 AM

I'm upset. We're packing for the renovation and wanted to get a few extra boxes. Of course the neighbour my husband is constantly messaging with had some so she brought them and he invited her in and gave her a tour. I tried hiding but he brought her into the room I was in and then I had to push through them to leave. I said I was going to the shop just to get away because I have social phobia and because I've been complaining to my husband about the constant messaging for quite some time so I can only assume he invited her in to upset me?

Anyway, I'm upset but I can use this pain for personal growth because I'm an alchemist.

I’m feeling cautiously optimistic today will be pleasant. The sun is shining and my boss is out of the office. Hopefully nothing too hairy happens.

Crazy Hitch · Nov 14, 2023 at 04:38 PM

Waiting on my test results from my GP. Should be in by Friday latest I would hope.

Hope your okay hitch

Bracing myself for the invasion of workmen (yes, they're all men despite living in the Netherlands) tomorrow. Not sure I'll get any sleep tonight. Fourteen days with no shower or flushing toilet (we can flush it with buckets of water). I'm looking forward to no washing machine and no cooking though? I'll try to get into twenty year old me mode (I'm fifty) when living without modern facilities was "cool" :-D

I hope you can get food hot somehow and find a way to wash clothes without flooding a room

(Yes i flooded my bathroom trying to handwash clothes in the bath - as in literal flood)

Washing machine was broke and i couldnt get someone immediately to fix it

felineangel · Nov 15, 2023 at 08:27 AM

That really sucks. We had workmen for a month here (they have recently left). We did have a flushing toilet (some of the time) but no shower or bath (not that I like those anyway, understatement... but that's a different story..)

Hope 20 year old you is there to help (and that you can get hot food or salads if they are edible for you!)

Discombobulated · Nov 15, 2023 at 01:24 PM

I’m feeling a bit more switched on than I have recently which is good.

Ford Puma · Nov 15, 2023 at 02:29 PM

I had a strong anxiety this evening. Thankfully my roommates came. After chatted a bit, I‘m glad to know they have the same issues and I‘m not alone. It relieves me a bit.

Thanks. It made me feel like a sad hermit. Thankfully I returned now
