  • 2 votes for fridge door so that's where it stays! My pills embarrassingly are in large bag, that is something else on the list to sort out.

    Thank you! It looks empty which is odd!

    How many packs of pills do you have?

    I guess you need something that keeps it all in the original boxes so they don't get muddled.

    ETA: something like this?

    I always found WHSmith quite good for pretty things like this.

  • That is so pretty! I have 12 packets of 28 pills every errr 28 days, obviously so it would fill it up but it could work!

    This may be a penguin moment, as I know there may be some issues with religion.

    I was thinking perhaps you could indulge your inner child and Lucee, by making up Christmas boxes for Operation Christmas Child. I used to do it with my son and it gave us enormous pleasure - not to mention help decluttering as he always had duplicates of toys and stationery that he didn't use.

    You could even do some crafting for it, but check out what is and isn't allowed.

  • I love those! We used to do them in the home I used to work at from the residents. I am fine with Christmas, in fact I really like it! Not in a religious sense but in an ooh, pretty twinkling lights and yummy food and time to spoil my friends and partner sense.

    For future reference religious holidays don't bother me at all, although I am more likely to celebrate santa and the easter bunny. I actually slightly celebrate all different religious festivals from around the world, I just did Eid. They are all equal to me.

    What are triggers are Bible quotes as I grew up hearing distorted versions of those, churches make me scared, Bibles in general also make me scared.

    I currently have a problem with people praying for me but LIR (Hi LIR!) made a post that really affected me on another thread where she said that she saw prayers as someone doing something nice for her which to me basically means that they are harmless. That really made me think because I see prayers as begging for forgiveness and associated with blame and as a threat to me. So, I might be changing my attitude about that one after a bit more thinking.

    No problem with talking about weddings or funerals, baptisms make me cringe because my mother made such a huge fuss about how she had to get me baptised to remove the demons inside of me. Christianity is a bigger trigger than other religion as that was what my mother distorted. I think that's the lot.

    I have no problems with anyone on the thread talking about any of these things but I may not join in with the discussion. Everyone is fine to say what they wish though.
