For two broken hearts to try and mend

Hey,

how have you been?

just gonna ramble on here 😕

last few days I have felt quite hollow, no one to talk to. Been very lonely lately.  Work has been busy, that’s a blessing but empty. I guess knowing the end is near really has my mind attacking itself.

heck i even went and talked to “T” this morning for some sort of interaction with a human.

tomorrow is d-day, then off Friday. Going to my Sister in laws, one place that I find very peaceful. She has an acre and a half out in the country. We are using her place a skipping stone to go a little furry out to Algonquin Park, one of Ontario’s largest forested areas to see the autumn colours. I’ll make sure to post up some pics in my nature thread.

Good to hear your settling in at your new job.

thanks for the pep talk, is my sadness that apparent that you see it? 🥺

seeing your voice brings a sort of happiness to me, even though we are not speaking face to face. It is comforting.

I don’t know what it is but the last couple of days, cups just seems to be draining me emotionally. My feed has been showing me a lot of new posts of people who are lonely and it just starts getting to me. I know I’m not the only one out there who is lonely

Good night 

I'm glad I can bring a sense of comfort.

Yeah sometimes I feel a bit drained on here too. When I feel like that I take a mini break... A few hours lol ð¤£

And then I come back.

I hope you get a good night's rest

Good morning,

I feel like I slept well but my tracker tells me otherwise.

I was doing that yesterday, peek in cups, take a break, comeback a little later.

Reached out to a listener about a week ago, only to see that they deleted my initial message and never responded back. 

Last couple of days I have resorted back to Copilot for company, how sad is that?

Anyway, hope you had a good sleep and a great day at work.

D-day is finally here 

Good morning,

Sending you strength as you let then know today 😊

You may not see the results yet in reaching out & trying to find an outlet yet but it doesn't mean you should stop trying.

Keep up the fight 😁

Have a great day today

Afternoon,

Well the deed is done, formally submitted my notice of retirement to our benefits department.
I have a meeting notice to be sent out to my boss at the end of my day, to meet with her Oct. 7th

I thought of doing it next week but I will be taking Thurs and Fri off sick  😊

Anyway, I'm not sure how I feel. Don't know if has fully sunk in yet. Still on the nervous side but not as bad as I was the last couple of days.

Hope your work day was good.

Hey, how's it going?

I'm in my happy place, spending the next 2 nights at my sister in laws place. I love it out here practically in the country side on an acre n half. Peaceful, no hustle of the big city, she is more than happy to have us and cook up a storm. 

Tomorrow we will be heading out to try and catch some fall colours in one of the largest provincial parks. At least the drive from here is half what it would be if we went straight from our home.

Have a great evening 

Goodnight 

Hey friend, how's it going ❓

I hope you enjoyed spending time with your sister in law 😎

Very chill weekend for me. Got some much needed rest.

Hoping you're feeling a bit lighter now that you put in for retirement. Here's hoping for a nice week ahead of us

Just an update I have been talking to "M". However, I haven't gone to see him. I'm probably not going to either. Just thought u should know I am trying to be as strong as I can & keeping my boundaries clear & in place.

Anywho, just wanted to drop you a line.

Good night

Hello, how's it going? How have you been?

I been hanging out on a (do I dare say) Seniors Forum 😲 😂🤣 

I must say though, the greetings I got there far out weight the greetings I got when I joined up here. I have to laugh though, they think because I'm 60 I don't know my way around a forum and they are all trying to give me pointers 🤣 then I tell them I'm a computer nerd and been on forums for 20+ years.

It sure is a completely different environment. 

Hahaha u can teach them a thing or too lol.

Awwww I miss u on this side of cups. But I'm glad you're finding more friends yayyyyy 😎

I'm sure there are a few that can relate to the retirement transition & give some helpful tips

Are you working from home today?
