Oh yes Mr Warrior....

we can vote you down as well as up!!  But why would we

But I don't think that we are able to vote you off of the island....

But you can insert a Poll in your comments!!! - lol!

Oh my word you site leaders really do have power to control!

I see you have 3,242 points oh powerful one.

on your poll above it has Total votes 0 and view results in pink under that. Why is this not under the leader board poll?

I vote you should be appreciated for being you.

The thing is ele I always have been,just as I get older I get soppy'er just never feel comfortable being so in the real world!

You're such a soppy soul LoneWarrier...please don't ever change. Missy needs a place to feel safe and I thank you for that.

big love!

Hi all totally shattered,been walking all day,lots of fun but lots of people and lots of noise! Just focus on individual things, still makes my heart rate go up and all becomes a big blur. Still 54 years of coping has helped. Been at the Dorset steam fair,

really nice to hear missy having a chatter please feel free to chatter as much as you like on my post,it's what I want and encourage, I am a natter box, I just bore people a lot lol.like ele said just let it roll on by,we are here to support you,never feel you are alone.and to my favourite teacher I send a special pupil teacher hug,and a big hug to missy from me and my daughter.

 Wow nature can be beautiful. 

Sending out the BIG love...which is almost as good as an online hug from @LoneWarrior

Watch out for that dragon fly and keep the g.pig happy :)

Thanks . I know,I've had many . At least it's warm and dry enough to have the door open onto the garden. The sun might even be trying to peep out 

They do happen, so try to roll with it. Promise

Ok. I know but frustrating all the same. I sort of expected it but always hope it won't happen..

The key is to be patient with yourself and the burn out....don't beat yourself up about it! Ok

Didn't have notifications on sorry.   Yesterday I didn't manage anything and only slightly more today. I'm in a mini burn out. Just have to wait it out. 

I'm ok, thank you....what's occurring in your bubble..

Hello Elephant. Am sure Lonewarrior won't mind me coming here just to say hello and ask if you are ok too? 

Hi Misfit... hope you are ok and I am aware that you are quite wary about being only at the moment. 

Yes, the above was a lovely conversation and Lone is very lucky to have such a supportive family ...but we're also a very supportive, (although a bit kooky) "family" here.

Lonewarrior and Elephant what a lovely conversation. You are both wonderful. Elephant I am with you in not really having anyone to share wth offline. I will miss you when you are fully engaged back at work.  Lonewarrior you sound like you and your wife have built such a loving family and you let that spill out onto here. I wish your daughter well. In my range of many jobs I worked with special needs children and I loved working with them ( NT colleagues not so easy).

I will never forget the teacher who saved me! I wish I could thank her and give her a really long cuddle,now that is unlike me. She saw I needed help and in her own time got me heading along the right road.

Looks like your lovely wife is continuing that mantle....hope she's coping with assembling your holiday wardrobe!! - he he!

Long may it continue, she has always said she wanted the unhelped children to have someone to help them. It was her that put the scope link on my Facebook page,apparently it wasn't aimed at me,but she does understand my links with it.

we are so alike but always at odds,both headstrong.

I watched a YouTube vid once of a teacher who was retiring,the whole school secretly organised a farewell to remember,it was when everyone suddenly starts singing and dancing. They did it to lion king music,they encircled her on the playiground parents teachers and children all took part. Bless she was crying,so was I. I still watch it and it still makes me cry.years of devoted work.

Still can't do links but the video is"St Julian's school flash mob for Mrs Gabica." Make sure you have plenty of tissues.

And I expect that daughter is very proud of her parents as well - which is probably another reason why she wants a career where she can give back to others! - She realises that your support has helped her greatly achieve...and she'd like to do the same! - look what you've started!!
