Re: Anne and Loopy

Thanks for sharing that with me @PeppiPatty I hope your visit to your Mum's went well today. Children certainly are a loving challenge sometimes.
I went for 2 swims today.
Have you ever made jam? I am going to attempt it soon as I have an overloaded Fig tree out the backyard.
I guess pimples and boils wouldn't be too nice to live with. I am grateful I don't have those problems, just wrinkles but no grey hairs yet lol

Re: Anne and Loopy

Yeah......wrinkles are appearing..I think I had adult pimples and these huge boils under my chin since the age of about 30 years old.

figs are yummy aren't they?
I save my empty peanut paste jars for someone who makes jams, I dislike cooking because when I turned 40 I was incredibly burnt out and decided I didn't want to cook anymore.
Yes.....the grey hairs we can cope with because we can both pretend we are as cool as Helen Mirren!!

My Mum and I work very hard on our relationship. we both don't understand how the other thinks......there has been years of anger on both sides, unfair and cruel.

Re: Anne and Loopy

Helen Mirren. ... yeah definitely pretending lol

Well I am not so good today.
I wrote a little poem to express some of the anxiety that has sneaked up on me and it did help a little. I guess sometimes being trapped with these overwhelming feelings and being all alone with it as onothers do not understand at all. They just make me feel worse.

I picked some figs after I had a swim.
I hope I can still go to work

Re: Anne and Loopy

Is work something that you enjoy?
My Father told me something I think......may be a little wise......I don't know......

'Do what you want to do.
Say what you want to say.'

Yes, I feel poems have made me feel heaps better. I like writing about a dream I've had about a day later.
Can you write your poem?

I find having a timetable for the day helps out. I am working tomorrow as well.

Re: Anne and Loopy

Hey @PeppiPatty
Yeah I like my job
How about you?
Yeah time tables and list's are both very helpful.
I posted my little poem.
Proof of Light has written some good stuff worth reading. Check it out.

I made the Fig jam. Lovely with tea and toast.

Re: Anne and Loopy

Thanks peace@ ille do dishes and check out poem and then proof-of-light@ I just sent her hello anyway- If I find my last poem ille send it to you about dream but it's a little sad and old. I want to send hello to a few like minded friend on sane anyway starting with allessandra1992@ to niknik@

Re: Anne and Loopy

Hi @PeppiPatty
We haven't crossed paths lately. Great to 'see' you!

Nik

Re: Anne and Loopy

Hey @PeppiPatty I am Helen Mirren! Ooh to have been with Liam Neeson...me, I think I lean more towards, hmmm, Eddie out of Absolutely Fabulous..unfit, over 40 and living large! Except for the drinking and smoking 🙂 I can't handle those activities anymore.. Asthma and hangovers.. Can't do it. 🙂 Has @Loopy been around lately?
@peace I have loved what you have been writing about...without a diary I wouldn't be able to work..I would forget where to go!

Re: Anne and Loopy

Dearest nik nik:

In fact I don't know how IDE be without knowing I can have a little time writing hi to my like minded friends! I've been having days of panic attacks and trying to get into 'the groove.......' I've met someone far too soon since breaking up with last partner but that it's not heavy but more like friendship ......... That's good. My relationship with family has been extraordinarily positive. My artwork has been good. I work, I'm learning to pace myself. I really like hearing/ reading from my caring 'sane,' friends.

Re: Anne and Loopy

Hey allessamdra1992@ how is your true Helen mirren going lol !!
Love it ! I've been reading your awesome messages to hiddenite@ with your compassion and care ...so accurate and right. I'm personally happily surprised with hiddenite@ bravery. How are the children ? My youngest son is being acting like a typical 20 year old and thinking he is so much cleverer than me, I think it's a faze.
I'm getting addicted to eating whole meal toast with exotic jam like orange jam thinking of peace@ brilliance at making Fig jam. Homemade. Yum. I smile when I read your messages.
