    What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

    I'm much better in myself, had a quiet day but I keep expecting it to go wrong. :rolleyes: I'm aching all over as if I have worked out, which I haven't. I don't know if it is low iron or calcium which it has been before or something else. Oh well, plod on Crafty! Just remembered...I had to...

    Looks like you are doing a fine job Bloom - well done! How old are your children ? This is what I am trying do with my son's. I have to drop the 'respectfully' bit at the moment as I have just found out that both my sons (and my husband) have Aspergers. They have all gone undiagnosed (my son's...

    Clan Kp The Nut. Holiday To Florida

    KP's flight was delayed this morning by 2 hours so she will miss her connection at Newark so they will fly to Charlotte rather than Orlando which means a 26 hour flight! I wish KP and the family a very safe flight and a joyous and restful holiday. Hubby and I are house sitting for KP while she...

    My Best Friend In Life Was A Cat

    My cat Kimmy was my best friend as a child, the only one I could ever share things with. she was a gentle soul and I loved her. I have no memories of he not being there as a child - she died when I was 16 and it was a privilege to have he in my life. We got another cat, Tabitha, but she...

    What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

    I'm feeling much better. The man who's car I hit has contacted us and we have to pay out nearly £300 for the repairs, better than I thought but still scary. My Son has had a verbal diagnosis of Aspergers Syndrome, we will get the full report and official diagnosis in about 3 weeks. Feeling...

    Grounding 101

    Dear @BloomInWinter what and insight!:hug: I have coped alone all my life, relying on my own strength and dissociating from what I couldn't handle. I just knuckle down and try to push through. I never thought of it as brave or having strength, which it is of course, I just wanted to 'get...

    What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

    I am tired and stressed waiting for the man who's car I hit to get in contact. I am so anxious that we won't be able to afford the bill. Nightmares aplenty here.

    What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

    I overdid it on Friday. It went bad then good then awful. I had to go to the hospital to see the haematologist and forgot that I had to be there 30 minutes before the appointment for the blood test. This caused me stress as I knew it would be hard to find a parking space. I had to run to my...

    Poll Do You Automatically Clench/Tense Up?

    I get very tense and since my dentist has given me a mouth guard to stop me clamping my teeth together at night, I have realised that I do it during the day too. I am trying to relax and allow my muscles and my jaws to relax. Similar to yourself @BlackbirdSinging.

    Husbands Family Have Gone Mad... Or Is It Me?

    I finally did it! Husband and I met with his sister and what a strange, surreal day it was! We picked her up and took her to a local garden centre so we could sit and have a cup of tea. As we were going to the cafe she said, 'oh I have no money with me,' and I said it didn't matter as my...

    What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

    I am so much better. The antibiotics have helped to clear up the sinus and chest infection and although I have a residual cough it is far better than it was. I still have a big load of latent anxiety because I know I have to confront someone and I'm dreading it.
