Weekly check-in January 08-14 !
Hello everyone!! Hope you are fine!
How is the week going on?
* What is going well this week?
* What is going not so well ?
You can share about it here!

I'm tired from the holidays and need to get back into a bit more of a routine although typically that is fairly unstructured. Will start packing away the Christmas stuff, hopefully can manage to get it down besides outside lights this week.
@AffyAvo
Hi Affy!
Yeah, suppose you are needing to rest and relax as well!
Would be glad if someone could help you in packing.... " jumps over there to pack with you and have a warm cup of tea with a yummy piece of cake" .. 
Please have a good care for yourself, your presence is something nice, so thank you for being around!
@BeyondTheInvisible Thanks!
My husband will help for sure. Christmas tree plan is he will bring up all the containers and I will pack away the ornaments gradually, leaving the ones I can't reach for him to do. I have much more patience for packing them up properly to prevent breakage. He'll take down the tree and carry everything to the basement.
Not very well. :( I think I've become anaemic and it's causing its own symptoms, on top of my other usual symptoms and worsening everything. Been in a lot of pain, more than usual since Friday and feel so tired and grumpy because of it.
@MythologicalMayhem
I am really sorry to hear that you are in such difficult moment.
Do you think that talking about anemia with your doctor can help it, so that also the symptoms will be lessen?
Hope that things can go a bit better soon.
Take care!
@BeyondTheInvisible
I tried to bring it up to the doctor but she didn't act on it. :( She gave me some things for hormones and painkillers, but wasn't willing to look into anaemia. :(
I am not so sure. I get anxious sometimes all of a sudden and then it becomes difficult to breathe. I don't like my life now. I am fighting hard and thanks to the people who support here. Let's see how much longer can I survive.
@luffydono
Hello there, sorry to hear that things are difficult.
Hopefully there will be better days, I really wish you that.
Feel free to ask for support everytime you need to and maybe you can also consider to seek for a long term listener that can help you with planned conversations.
Take care!
@BeyondTheInvisible
So far the week has proven to be, so so in nature. I'm lonely; not because of lack of people, but more because of lack of people who want to listen to me. I have people in my life, but they all want me to help them. So I guess that's a bad thing, because I am so very lonely.
The good part is my children cleaned the house last night, with only minimal compaints and two fights. So I'm happy about that.
Pain wise, that's up and down; fluxuating with the weather, temperature, and the fact I decided to get up and try to make breakfast. It's my own fault though, I pushed myself, but the meal was divine, so it was worth it.
@SakodaRochelle
Hi!!
The week is going so so then, with some health issues but also some positive feedbacks like children having helped and you having had a meal worth of your effort, that's great 
Sorry for the feeling of loneliness, I hope that here you can relax and experience interactions that are focused in listening to you.
Let's also hope weather will not make things worse the next days.
Can I wish you an awesome coming weekend? Feel free to update me when you want!
Take good care for yourself!
@BeyondTheInvisible
Awe, thank you so much for the wonderful response. And yes, getting good wishes for the weekend is always welcome.
I hope I'm able to speak so that I'm heard as well. One of my main problems is that I'm a good listener in life, so most people just start talking to be. Even online, and I trivialize my issue, and try to help them.
I guess I really need to learn how to just open up, because I'm just as important as everyone else.
I hope your weekend is wonderful and kind as well.
Again, thank you.
@SakodaRochelle
Thanks to you for the wishes and niceness!
So you tend to trivalize your issues and prefer to focus on the other person issues.
Maybe you can see if it is because you do not want them to feel overwhelmed by your problems or because you need to feel at ease or to trust more the person with whom you could open up and share about you.
Good point to think that you also deserve to be heard and that we are all importat the same way!
Care borns from love and it is good to be given and received as well, so look if you can let someone care for you like you care for them! ![]()
Cheers!
