Hi @BlueBay
When you are going through a crappy time perhaps it's better just to read your own thread - and not to bother with other people- I am sure most people will understand that
And reading the screen - whether it's your phone or your computer - can cause headaches to be worse - ah - yes - I know this from experienced - so just stick to this thread - Imagine you were on the Titanic and had a spot in the lifeboat - would you give it up? Well - I am as kind and generous as the next person and I would not - so with your bad times and you are having bad times - just stay with your own stuff - stay in your own safe place - and I don't mind at all -
You are having a bad time - it will change and everything will look great again and then you will run into a bad spot - I won't tell you to look on the bright side when you feel so bleak - I hate being told that myself - just be there for yourself - and wait it out - hard yes - easier said than done - right - I do understand that -
My own stuff is starting to bite me - I get that - tomorrow would be my 51st wedding anniversary - of course no one cares - actually - neither do I - but in 1986 I had the worst wedding anniversary on record - for me anyway - maybe I will write this on my own thread - it's from my book of Bad Day stories so you don't need to read it unless you get the funny side
But the past is a powerful thing - and those plates and cups and glasses and stuff of your mother's - I get it - they are so powerful - and just getting rid of them will be hard for you which is why I suggest you break them - or just wrap them in newspaper one at a time and put them in the red bin. See how that feels
It helps me writing to you - it always does - it helps me to write to other people - as if we were sitting down with an iced-coffee and a piece of something nice to eat and chatting away -
You are in my thoughts - and I will post my pic of the swans up at Lakes Entrance for you
