Battles

It actually wasn't too bad.  It was very loud!  But it wasn't a big place, not that crowded and so i could sit the whole time.  It was at the Semaphore Workers Club.  Which i found out when i got there is a communist club.  So i'm not sure if i'm on a list now 😂

I hope your doctors appointment goes well... better than the last one at least. 

And don't worry about bringing others down with your own struggles... it's why we're all here... we're already down!

@MJG017 glad it wasn't too bad. If it's too loud then you're too old, or that's what people say anyway 😂. Would have been nice to not be overcrowded and bonus that you could sit down the whole time. 

I survived my appointment but I forgot to get a script done so now I have to ring at some stage and organise that. I'm home now and trying to calm myself down a bit. Have to go to the shops after but that's not possible unless I can at least calm down first. 

I just hate putting all my problems on others, we are all dealing with our own battles. 

How's your day been so far?

I was one of the youngest people there... so using age as an excuse for it being too loud was never going to fly! 🤣

I found this clip from 8 years ago.  It was at the same place as last night.  It hasn't changed a bit!  Although it look far more crowded.  There were only ever 3 people at most having the odd dance.  This was they song they played as an encore.

I hear you, it is so hard to not feel like we are dumping our problems on others.  Something I'm very guilty of... a lot!  But with places like here, i try to look at it like we're 'sharing' our problems rather than 'dumping' them.  Does it mean I always feel like sharing here because I don't mind 'dumping' it on others?  The past few weeks would say that i don't! 🤔  There's days I feel like it and days that I don't.  A lot of the 'don't' days recently it seems.

As for my day... ehhhh... it's another one.  Which I should be grateful for i guess.

@MJG017 i mean I reckon shopping centres are too loud, so i don't think it has anything to do with age 😂.

They sound pretty alright, I bet you were one of those 3 having a dance 😂.

But see i don't mind other people sharing their problems cos they seem so much easier to deal with than mine. I guess i just feel like my problems don't matter and that there not that bad, like maybe I should just get over it all and stop complaining. 

Yes it's just another day, but I'm grateful that you are still here 😊.

Hello @Jynx, how are you going? 

[Jynx]

Syrupy @Dreamy how about you?

[Dreamy]

@Jynx fragile. 

[Jynx]

@Dreamy I'm syrupy cos insomnia has made my brain move as slow as molasses...

So, now all I can picture is how pretty and shiny a pile of broken glass covered in maple syrup would look caught in a sunbeam! 

Hehe cos that's us right now if you're all brittle and I'm goop.

So at least we're sparkly 💖

[Dreamy]

@Jynx oh not the insomnia, that definitely makes the brain slow. 

Love the way you said it and yes at least we're sparkly. 

My head hurts and I just want to curl into a ball and cry 😢

I agree with you about shopping centres.... @Dreamy I avoid them as much as possible 

Hey @MJG017
