Congratulations on the SANE email.

Give your husband some time.  Some of us guys take a long time to learn.  A bit of a push every now and then helps a bit as well 🙂  It's not easy with showing vulnerability for a lot of us guys.  We were talking about this at the men's group last night actually and how, especially guys in their 50's and older now, were raised to not be vulnerable, that it was a sign of weakness.  So it's hard to overcome.

 

My zoom meeting was for a research trial I'm enrolling in.  The meeting was an interview to record my current mental state and mood... as a baseline before the study starts i assume.

 

The camping sounds like a nice relaxing getaway.  Hopefully the weather is nice for you.  It should be fun with friends there as well.  It all makes me a bit jealous about my long weekend... nothing much to do here.  Maybe do some cleaning outside if the weather holds... and I can be bothered.  Maybe we might go for a nice drive somewhere or something.  I'm not sure, we definitely don't have any plans.

 

Enjoy your 🏕 trip... and I'll try to control my envy 😁

Re: Best Friends Club

Hi @Oaktree You are spot-on with your information & timing.

I don't know how you found out....

I had a phone call from a Tendercare Support Worker this morning.

I had a brief conversation with her - I was at work, so I couldn't really talk.

We will hopefully meet up for a coffee somewhere, early next week.

Time or day hasn't been arranged yet.

I'm not sure if I'm supposed to phone her (to arrange), or if she will phone me.

In any case, they've accepted me - So I'm rather Chuffed (happy) about that.

@Oaktree One chair at a time.
The timber part takes patience. It’s a lot of hard graft and your hands will get tired.

I think one of the blokes might do upholstery, I’m not sure.
