If you are experiencing more divergent and less focused states of mind, day or night, and would just like to have a bit of a 'chat'; discuss a topic that just comes to mind or as becomes off-topic on another thread of posts ~ be welcome here to do so on this thread.
Good morning everyone. Happy Sunday. Today I am getting out of the house and going out with my Dad. We will have lunch out and go look at an open heritage site with cake and plant stalls etc maybe a potter about the countrylanes. Hope you have an enjoyable Sunday too.
Hope you have a lovely day and the weather's good for your adventure x
Thanks .. I hope so too. Hope you do something you enjoy as well x
You ok Spotty? Have I upset or offended you?
just as well really because he's definitely someone special to have around
Don't worry...you'll meet yourself on the way back, promise!
I expect so.....can't keep away can he...we are all such wonderful company for him! Lol x
️I'm getting very lost on the threads!
Ah yes didn't think of that. I'm probably the same. More Warrior stories of the day later I hope
xx
I like the marathon analogy Ellie. The nested threading is beginning to get on my nerves completely. You read something you want to come back to and then can't find it for love or money and this bit of this conversation is a complete muddle! Going back up there now.
I think he may have broken his ampersand...or you can change your settings and not get mentioned..(maybe a case of inbox overload)....?
good to here from you Missy xx
Hahaha very funny Ellie but like I said nice to have you here
By the way did you manage to @ Lonewarrior? Because it won't work when I try!
Don't need a corner....no one can see me in the middle of the room! :p
Hang onto that laptop/tablet/smartphone..everyone should have a corner to retreat to
Lol. Just been looking for you can't find where you were chatting with Spotty! Will you both stop being so active and stay in one place where I can find you! Lol so nice to have you both herexx
Hi Missy
theoretically I could run a marathon.....! Sometimes we can all do with a hand...but I guess we've all got use to doing everything by ourselves and muddle on by... :(
Because I should be able to do it myself!!!
Thank you Spotty. I'm sure I saw Ellie a minute ago too will have a look round. ()()
They are not selfish thoughts Misfit, you've been handed a whole dictionary of diagnoses to contend with and you need help, you deserve a lot more than you are getting. It shouldn't be so hard and you certainly shouldn't feel guilty. ()()()
Misfit61 said: don't deserve it
Where does that come from, Missy?
Hi Spotty. How are you and how is your shell.
Been a fast and furious couple of weeks back at work....so already singed around the edges (not a full burn out yet)....
I couldn't be pig headed if I tried....i am far too passive for that! I think i would rather hide in the kitchen when people come over to visit....it is surprising how long it takes to peel a carrot!!
OH just gone to have a lie down...keeps him out of the way and I can get some Spotty time! He is unsure about me being online..I guess he just doesn't like not being the centre of attention and is probably worried about what we all talk about?
How is the bass playing....gardening in the rain..... etc etc. Are you still in a slump....
To quote Dr Suess - "unslumping yourself is never much fun!"
Hope @Misfit61, @Lonewarrior, Deepthought, and Bonniepurple et al are all ok and hanging there..
After all that shopping relaxing sewing and tv sound good. I've had the house to myself and a sofa day today. What are you making?
I'm okay, thanks for asking. Having a fairly relaxing day, albeit a fair bit of shopping (bought a desk for my eldest for £25 - one less excuse for not doing her homework!, went to the city for Aldi and a big Tescos) and am now chilling with my sewing and watching day time TV on iplayer.
I will just reply here til Ellie starts the new thread. I'm sorry one you are having a tough time with the garden owners .. no gardening in the rain sounds a good idea. The upholstery sounds good. Iope you do feel able to continue, would be a shame to stop and it sounds a nice size group. But yes I can see storage would be a problem.. magic wand required for dispersal of chairs and art. Glad y are enjoying . There is only so much we can take on at once maybe instead of an apt you could send an email to your Gp as a halfway method. I have patches of being able to listen to music and patches when I can't. Led Zep is my go to.
Glad to hear you are not too burned yet, but I bet it's hard. My shell is not currently thick enough at all. One of my gardens is an old lady who can be increasingly difficult and she pushed me past my limit this week and I was very short with her, I don't want to go back but I guess I will. I don't do gardening in the rain anymore so these days I tend to hope for rain on Tuesdays and Fridays.
I doubt I could be pig headed in your position either but with no kids and an over tolerant OH I can get out of most things, I can see that hiding in the kitchen is probably a good option. I hope being here isn't going to cause you problems, that would be horrid, like I said my OH is so tolerant I'm not sure he actually cares, but that is probably unfair. Think he's actually worried I'm going to break.
I've been learning upholstery for the last few years, one day a week and we are supposed to go back this week which I'm kind of dreading. They are lovely people and I think our tutor has ADHD too, we always call it chair therapy, there's only four or five of us and I've loved it up until now but I'm so much more fragile right now than before, I'm just hoping I can cope with it. I hand dye fabric with my drawn marks for the chairs and have no idea how to sell them either so more guilt about money only going in the wrong direction and chair storage issues.
The bass is my only constant, I love trying to paly it, though I'm not sure there's much improvement. Frankly I'm astonished and impressed that I can find any notes at all without looking! Well done me.
I think unslumping is going to take a while, haven't been brave enough to make a GP appointment about ADHD yet and still haven't drawn or painted, maybe tomorrow...
Currently listening to Tears for Fears in concert from 1983 on the iPlayer and loving it. Waffle waffle.
