@KristenHR Doing my best. Taking it one small step at a time. Enjoyed a visit with my daughter, who, despite suffering from a slight cold, was in a bubbly and gregarious mood. It was the highlight of my day. ⛺❤️❤️☺️

@KristenHR

Today has been a way better day than yesterday, but it's been boring. I have nothing to do. Though Im sure I have lots of things I should be doing but I just can't think of anything. I feel like my brian isn't functionning at the moment. I am very absent minded and forgetful, almost like I'm not entirely present in anything I'm really doing. But otherwise nothing bad happened today, it was just an uneventful day, which I think is sometimes good.

I'm glad it's an uneventful day rather than a bad day. Maybe you could do one of your hobbies if you're bored? You had a great karaoke song - is that something you could do for fun to break up the boredom?

Im having a complete freak out moment right now. I dont know who I can trust anymore. I dont think I can trust anyone. I cant trust anyone and I knew it. I always knew that. My god it hurts so much right now.

@WaterLily16

Hi Lily,

I am sorry you are feeling the pain of betrayal. It is difficult to trust people at times. I hope that you will not let this person who made a terrible choice take away your willingness to try again when you are ready. If there is anything we can do to help, please let us know. We are always here to listen if you want to simply talk about it.

It helps to let go of those feelings sometimes.

Thinking of you 💛

I'm sorry you're struggling to calm yourself. I hope by the time I post this, you have relaxed a bit so you could have fallen asleep. I know outside noises can be quite distressing and fearful at times. It's good you are trying to see some positive things. I'm hearing you. Take good care of you. I hope work goes well for you later. And I am well thanks!

Hi Calm,

Nights can be so challenging for many of us. I hope that you were able to get a little bit of rest as you work so hard to care for others.

I hope that tonight will be peaceful for you and all of those noises will gently fade iaway.

You are always so giving and positive. Be kind to yourself 💛

@calmLake1999

I am so sorry you are experiencing this Calm. Have you spoken to anyone about the harassment? I know it is draining emotionally and physically. It shows such weakness when another individual feels like they must intimidate another through such negative means. You stay safe and take care of yourself. Please stay in touch, Calm.

Hi Scarlet,

That bug seems to wish to hold on forever. Please take very good care of yourself. I know you are caring for your family as well. Take as much time as possible to ease back into your routine and allow them to help you as much as possible.

Hugs and get well wishes 💛

Hi! Great to hear you're doing pretty good at the moment. Sounds like with your chin up high you'll do well... and some good self care before and after the doctor's appointmant may help. Thank you for your very positive post!

Hi Bee,

Comfort food sounds like the best thing ever. I might have to sneak out in my PJs and get a little snack from the drive through 😳

I was busy all day and still have work to do as well, Giant sigh! I can be such a perfectionist procrastinator.

I hope that you are ahead of me with your work by now. I am off in search of snacks. I would share if I could. It is always more fun when you have someone to help keep you motivated.

We did it Bee! Thank you so much! I could not have finished these reports without your encouragement. Seriously, it was not going to happen tonight. Now I have a clear schedule in the morning 🎉

That is so funny, I am currently having a chocolate Oreo shake ~ insomnia is a given 🤦🏼‍♀️

I am feeling a lot better. We got the grandson a cheap car so he could get back and forth to work and go when he wanted to. I hope we made the right decision on getting him this car. Never the less my husband and I can no longer keep taking him around. Since my husband had the light heart attack. Wednesday my husband took a bad fall in Wendy's parking lot skinned himself up pretty bad.

Okay, theres no Friday thread, and its almost Saturday anyway so Im just comin in here...Im trying to do some German homework...and Im like pretty sure German is all just made up to mess with us now. Im over here trying to spell stuff using the German alphabet and theres whole words for letters and then theres the ä/ö/ü/ß and I just dont even know anymore. The Spanish alphabet song keeps going through my head which isnt exactly helping either. Plus I still cant make that throat sound for the ch and stuff and idek.
