Just that really,do you ever have a day when you wake up and need to feel loving arms around you without having someone special to say I am here lean on me for a while.
Well I am having one of those days.

Big hugs and flowers to brighten your day.

A great big, fat, warm hug from me too x

Downtoearth, it's good to see you again and I can well understand your need for a hug. I hope life is treating you well and here's a floral hug from me ((( flowers))).

Same here - not helped by constant torrential rain! I’ve been in my house robe all day and heading for a bath now. It’s really depressing, although DD2s silly little dog is doing his best to improve things.
Hugs all round.

A huge big hug from me too!!!

I've had a tough year too, mental health wise. Just been for acupuncture today to treat a sensitised system in pain following a fall playing badminton a month ago.. Can't get painkillers to cover the cramps as am sensitive to drugs too. Reacting to codeine last week which put me in dark place. So yes, looking forward to a hug from my friend tomorrow!!!!

I have no idea how hugs from total strangers make us feel better, I only know for certain that they DO!

Lots of (((hugs))) from me too. Let the sadness wash over you if you can. xx

I do like your idea of wearing your DH’s jumpers Granny23 ❤️

And from me too. I am always so surprised when some on GN say they are not huggers, or kissers. So lovely to see wo many are sending hugs, and so happy to send mine along too.

I've Still got a couple of DH's BIG sweaters hanging in the wardrobe. I feel comforted when I wear them on a cold miserable day. Almost like a hug

Thankyou each and everyone one of you for sending the warmth and love of the grans,it helps loneliness without the other half of you catches and you and trips you up,wether it be through bereavement or separation it is a bugger.
Annesixty thankyou for remembering.
Warm hugs back to each and everyone of you .

Joseanne Tue 15-Nov-22 12:23:48

I just took this for you and all on my morning walk over the moors this morning. 🤗

LRavenscroft Tue 15-Nov-22 11:53:05

Sometimes I just long for the old days when the people who meant so much were still alive and I belonged instead of having to watch every word I say, be shot down in flames if I disagree or even have a viewpoint. I do belong to one group which is run by a lovely retired lady who values us all equally and you feel as if you belong. So, yes, a big metaphoric hug to anyone who needs one today.
