@melliotm
Thanks for being so faithful to add the tags. Hope you are well today!
@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. ⛺❤️❤️☺️

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.
@WaterLily16
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?
@KristenHR
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 💛
@KristenHR
Hey.. I got some sleep today but it wasn't til 5 am.. I am anxious again because of the time of night 130am here,, dog barking again and noises outside,, frustrating because there is nothing i can do to calm myself at this moment.. just hope it passes soon.. hope this intimidation tactic will let up soon.. trying to show im stronger by not caving but reality is it is working because now i cant sleep til the sun is rising.. Just got to be grateful i'm working afternoon shift tomorrow so i can catch some sleep before work.. Trying to see positives in little things.. Hope you are well 
@calmLake1999
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!
@calmLake1999
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 💛
@Compassionatelistener108
Not safe anywhere I go now.. Intimidation tactic is ridiculous couldn't even be at work tonight without harassing phone calls.. Im kind of fed up now and so emotionally done in :(
@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.
@Compassionatelistener108
Hi comp.. I've done a report through the authorities and hopefully this will stop now.. Thank you.. I will stay in touch xx
@calmLake1999
I hope that will work quickly for you Calm. You deserve to feel safe in your own home and while you are working.
I will be thinking of you.
@Compassionatelistener108
Thanks comp.. Just gotta keep moving forward even when Im not safe.. My residents deserve me to be ok so I will show that I sort of am :)
Feeling some better with this flu bug. Just been taking it easy have not had the energy to do much.
@scarletPear1945
Good to hear you're feeling a little better Scarlet,But having to rest up may have be a positive too.... a breathing space after all that's been happening. Hoping its going to settle for you now. x,
@scarletPear1945
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 💛
@scarletPear1945 ❤️ Hope you continue to feel better!
Hiya!
I'm doing pretty good at the moment... though I'm pretty nervous for my doc appointment tomorrow...
But apart from that, im keeping my chin up (very high) and will show the world I can function in these situation!
Cheers to all of you!
@RedSinner20
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!
I got kinda down today. Idky. I stopped and got a comfort food meal on my way home from work. It was delicious and I felt a little better while I was eating it but now I
@BeeLeigh
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.
@Compassionatelistener108
I have gotten nowhere with my work and now I only have 2hrs to get it done 🤦🏼♀️. I procrastinated with online shopping. At least all I bought was two new pairs of glasses though? 🤷🏼♀️
@Compassionatelistener108
OKAY. Let
@BeeLeigh
Okay, I am ready! Snacks and all ~
Too funny, Bee. Exactly what I needed 💪
@Compassionatelistener108
How ya doin?? I got my stuff done and now I
@BeeLeigh
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 🤦🏼♀️
This week was no kinder than the previous ones.
Hoping the next week would be kinder :)
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.
