Gosh...its quiet in here tonight isnt it??

Glad

Hi all :hello:

just a gentle reminder that discussing any medication and its effects is not allowed on MSE,
no one expects everyone to know all of the rules though so it is a help when a member points this out in a friendly manner to someone else

thanks tiff

I've been hiding behind the sofa.

Bit anxious today as tomorrow I am going to London for the weekend to see my sister and go looking for bridesmaid dresses for my nieces. Which sounds like a really fun thing only i have to go on the train on my own and suddenly that's not an easy thing to do anymore.

Hope everyone's OK today - Tiff heres a special hug for you as you're running low

Hugs to you all

Hiya pumpkin...we were in London last weekend...best way to make the journey pass quickly is lots of magazines/books/puzzles and ipod/mp3 player.I always make sure I have pens and paper for doodling...anything that keeps your mind busy honey. Im sure you will be great!

I can understand how you feel pumpkin. You've already been given some great advice as to keeping busy. Hun, I'm sure you'll be fine.
What are you afraid of pumpkin? It's our fears that can make the actual situation worse than it is. Try and take your favourite distraction things with you to pass the time. Remember angel, it's a train journey to something nice and that once you're there, you will feel so relieved and proud of yourself. There will be plenty of people around to help you in any way if you should need it while on the journey. People can be really kind hun. Try and keep that as a reassuring thought angel.
If you have a laptop, take it with you and post during your journey if that might help? Make up funny stories about the people around you. Another good distraction technique is to count various things - how many bridges, tunnels, trains passing, shoes, blue cars, Tiffs - anything!;)
I hope you have a wonderful time hun. Try and go if you can. Only you know if you can do this sweetheart, so follow your instincts hun.

Hope everyone's OK today - Tiff heres a special hug for you as you're running low
Awww, thanks hun. I'll be thinking of you angel - enjoy yourself! Have a huge Tiff hug for the journey!

Hugs to you all

Much Love,

Hi ethel hun!:hello:
Aren't catnaps the best ones?:rolleyes: I'm not surprised you're tired hun after all you've been through recently. You make the most of it ethel!

I know what you mean angel - mine is growing faster than the third world debt!:eek: It's true that some meds - not just some ad's - can affect your weight hun, so if you're really bothered, mention it to your gp and see what he says.
All milk and catnip donations greatly appreciated!!!:A :rotfl:
I've changed my avatar as a gentle reminder!:D Oh and don't leave the milk out in the cold or it becomes an ice lolly.:o
I hope all is well with you hun. Take care.
Much Love,

Is it safe to say "Hello?"
Feeling good
I did not see you say or do anything nasty and you seem to be very hard on yourself. You do not deserve it.

Just about to go out to stock up the cupboards so see you all later.
Hugs to all

Hi elona hun!:hello:
Of course it's safe hun.:rolleyes: Nothing's changed - same old board. Hello back to you - how's everything in your corner of the world angel?
Did Mr.Kipling wipe out your supplies hun? Probably afraid of the competition from your baking!;)
Feelie will be back when she's ready I hope. I saw her little green light on yesterday so she's still around. Hoping you're well hun.
Much Love,

Hi gilly hun!:hello:
Our ever-wise badger You always post from your heart gilly. I think we all love this board hun for most of the same reasons. Thanks for sharing your heart angel. I'm still on board - Tiffs don't like getting wet :eek: so everyone keep rowing!!! :rotfl:

This place is a room to yell in, a place to receive sympathy and a place for a hug. If this thread wasn't here I would, by now, just come in MSE for the odd bargain and that is all.
I share my life on her so that I am not a stranger to you all (rather than for any help it actually gives me). A hug from someone you feel you know is worth more than some faceless person (or someone with no problems of their own). This thread is the most important thing on MSE to me. It was here when I needed it and if I can help anyone on here I would/will.
I think we all know you've got a kind heart gilly and you are very much appreciated here.
We all basically are here to offer and receive the same things. Can we please move on and get back to the business in hand - taking it in turns rowing the lifeboat.
PERSONAL PLEA TO FEELIE:
I have met you several times (so I do know) and I think you are intelligent, funny, kind and very, very special. You do not have to leave as far as I am concerned. But real life is more important than this thread - so take care and do whatever brings you the most happiness
Ditto hun. Try not to fret about feelie too much. I haven't met the lady but sometimes she takes a little time out and comes home when she's ready. Wishing her well. Take care gilly.xxx

Much Love,
