I'm very relaxed today

This week has been stressful but it ended in a relaxed manner.

I'm a trans boy, and I got a haircut today and it just truly felt right for the first time.

Hey there @ItsReganingRain *hugs* (if you are okay with it)

It is always really nice to hear from you around here! heart

I am really glad to hear that you are having such a nice relaxed day today and that you can now recharge after having a stressful week like that :)

That hair cut sounds pretty exciting as well. It is always really awesome when you can just be yourself more and I am really happy to hear that getting a new haircut has helped with that :)

Stay awesome! heart

It can be truly hard sometimes when your heart dictates like that. I mean, it is often not really logical and does not allow you to reason much. I wonder tho if you could share this with him. I mean, there are - most likely - two outcomes and, either way, it could probably be helpful. Even in the bad case scenario, some sort of clear indication from him helping you to be able to have a closure and start to move on with your life can be very helpful as well :)

Stay strong and awesome! heart

How do I feel today, tired on and off from other doing my general consumption, but on the plus side I have done the washing and sorted a cupboard to store my art things, much needed, happier spave (when it's sorted, might mean a happier me when I get home for work, or being out.

We are really glad to have you here with us! heart

Oh, tidying up a little bit can be so rewarding. I do not know why but I have found that it usually helps me as well to just have my surroundings be a bit more orderly and I am glad to hear that you have been able to sort some things out and get some storage space for your art things ^-^

Stay awesome! heart

@redmark Hey How are you?

Today wasn't such a good day. Dealing with some serious anger issues and some pretty strong urges.

The week was kind of up and down. Just have alot going on inside and out. Finally started going back into the shop. I haven't gotten much done, but at least I can go in now.

I hope you have a good weekend, take care

@redmark I'm sorry to hear your week was tough too, but glad that your weekend is going good.

The anger's a little better today, more of a simmer, than boiling. It's hard for me to bring that attitude in here when I feel like that. I worry I'll say the wrong thing to someone. So I try to keep to myself. Just feels safer, ya know?

I actually finished staining the coffe table I was working on, hoping to start to put it together and get it sealed. I did start stripping another log and have an idea for it.

Uh - songs, Frenship - 1000 nights Too close to Touch - Inside Voices

Thank you, You stay awesome too! Take care Have a good rest of the weekend

@mytwistedsoul You know I understand that it can feel safer to keep your anger like that for yourself but I do promise it to you if you ever say something that hurts me in any way I will let you know and we can talk through that. I am glad to listen if you are feeling comfortable to share anyway :)

Also, that coffee table sounds like it is coming together really well and I am curiour what your new project will be with that log you have mentioned :)

Also, I do like those songs. Especially the first one has a really...like...calm vibe to it. Although I am sorry to hear that you are feeling like that, especially like the second song.

...also also....sorry for my late reply here

@redmark No problem with the late reply. I figure you didn't have to reply at all. So thank you.

Idk, the anger I guess is just at life in general. Acceptance of the truth of things, acceptance of myself. I suppose some confusion on why other people care how I am, how I'm feeling. Some mixed and confused thoughts on how I feel about that. I have a hard time thinking of myself as a good person, but other people seem to think that I am. Things just feel tangled inside and I think I'm afraid if I start pulling on strings, everything is just going to completely unravel and I won't know what to do with any of it. That probably sounds weird.

I started putting it together a little here and there. The coloring is actually pretty nice. The log has has a tower vibe to it. I always sort of had a thing for castles and towers. Idk, maybe I was a knight in a past life.

Depression seems to be sinking in - again. But I have people reminding me that it's ok to not be ok. So that's - ok, lol!

Hey - thanks for your time. For listening. Have a good week, take care.

@mytwistedsoul Hmm....it is actually an interesting question.

You know I have this - probably naive - view of the world and people in it that everybody is worth the time and everyone has something interesting to them that I would like to get to know. I believe that people have an inherent value and something I can take away from them and that they are "good".

I mean, I do not know if it answers your question but, the point is, I know you for a while and I can tell you that you have not proven me otherwise. In fact, I like to talk to you and your unique views in many different things and also your love of music is something I do really like in you. :)

@redmark I don't think it's naive, more of a positive view on things, which is good. Sorry I think I'm sort of in a philosphical deep thinking mood today.

Thank you - it means a lot to hear you say that.

Hi red heart

I'm quite tired, I had exams the last few weeks and haven't had a break for a few months, now it's over I don't really know what to do.

I had a nice day yesterday, I spent the day at the park with friends and we flew a kite. I got sunburnt though :o

How are you?

Love and hugs heart

Hey there @FloweringBunny *hugs* (if you are okay with it)

It really nice to hear from you once again here! heart

I have had a tootache going on for me for a good portion of this week. It is gone but, still, kind of recharging. My weekend is going well so far tho and I am feeling okay - only a bit tired. Thank you for asking :)

Exams can certainly be really overwhelming and just stressful. I do hope that you will be able to just catch up on some rest and recharge a little bit now that they are over tho :)

Going out with your friends to the park sounds like a good way to recharge. Thinking of it, I have never flown a kite before, but it sounds fun :)
Sorry to hear about sunburn tho, it can be really annoying. I hope it heals soon as well :)

Stay awesome! heart
