Black Dog Gang 5

I like this from the poetry pharmacy, for courage

COME TO THE EDGE

‘Come to the edge’
‘We might fall’
‘Come to the edge’
‘It’s too high’
‘COME TO THE EDGE’
And they came,
And he pushed,
And they flew.

Annie not heard of Dorothy Rowe, but will have a look at her books now thank you for that.

Doodle I read Dorothy Rowe some years ago when I had
depression. Helpful .

Hi namsnanny thank you for the tip I will try that. I haven’t heard of Dorothy Rowe annie I will look her up. Have you read her books?

Namsnanny I use dispersable..
have a good day all..

Hi all x

Anyone read any books by Dorothy Rowe ? , she wrote many on depression

Very frosty still here but lovely and sunny too!
Have a productive and peaceful day all

joce345 ...that's a piece of useful advice! I didn't know about aspirin in the wash.
Does it have to be dispersable?
I should like to try that

Doodle I have read that aspirin desolves tissue don’t know if it works, I do use aspirin in my whites it help keep them white, it won’t hurt anything... put 4 aspirin in the washing machine with the tissue clothes... if you have a dryer that does get a lot off.. good luck!!

Joce345 …. what a cake, looks lovely!

Annibach … I'm so glad for you both.

Doodle … I don't envy you. Have you tried running the machine with nothing in it to help wash out the bits?
As for the sheets, I don't know, line dry and brush whilst on the line?
Then re wash?
You've got a busy few days ahead!

Bluesky ... hoping your ok?

You too rafichagran and flutterby?

Sleep well

Glad you had a good time annie. ?
Lovely cake joce.
Changed the bedsheets today and washed them.......and by accident included a tissue. I wonder how long it’s going to take me to get all the little bits of disintegrated tissue out of the washing machine and off the sheets ?
Sleep well all x

Sorry, yes I spent time with my granddaughter, much laughter , it was great

Joyce, you have come on so well since you first posted, plodding along is ok, it takes time but you can get there x

Thank you Annie, it’s been a long road but physically I am doing well. Mentally I am still plodding on and that good for me just hope it lasts Annie...
Did you spend time with your granddaughter Annie?

Joyce you are well now, go and enjoy every minute .

Love the cake, thank you for sharing x

Disney cake for little Granddaughter. Her mum made it..

Annie it will be my pleasure to give Donald a hug from you, we go early February I am so excited. I was in a mess last time we were going on holiday, but then was ill, this time I can’t wait, I do love Disney haha (big child ) haha

What the others have said namsnanny. If we can help please say or just pop in when you can. We all know that feeling. It will pass. It will. x

Thanks Anniebach

Hi all x

Namsnanny I have an expression I use when feeling I can’t
talk , ‘ pulling up the drawbridge’. Post when you feel able to x

joyce* when is the exciting visit to Disney World ? If possible
give Donald Duck a hug from me x

To all who read this thread but feel unable to talk, we all
understand, and are here for you

Thanks joce345

Namsnanny no need for forgiveness, you post if and when you want to, it’s fine we all know that feeling...
Hope your soon on the mend..

Forgive me for not posting again more regularly. I am thinking of you all and reading, but when it hits it's like a ten tonne truck isn't it? Stops me in my tracks for a while.

Joce345 … your dolls house music room looks so professional, you must have such a lot of patience! I'm so glad you've got your holiday sorted out. I'm looking forward to you spending time with your gc in Disney let alone how you must feel!!

Doodle ...How are you? Thank you for being on the ball and starting this thread off, I wanted to post but too over come for a while.

Flutterby … Hope the weather isn't getting you down too much?

Anniebach ...3 weeks is a long time, I'm so glad you talked to her. I bet she had loads of news. There's nothing like talking even the smallest things over with a loved one.
As for the sunshine, I hope you've had a good innings where you are?

nanny2507 …. thinking of you and wishing you well.

Good for you nanny that’s one big step hopefully forward..
we are going to Disney world Florida Nanny went last year it is amazing, we are so so lucky to have the chance to go, I can’t believe I am going again think I am more excited than the grandkids. I think every child should experience it and every adult haha..

joce so glad you have got another room. How lovely for you.
nanny, you do not need to tell us your problems. Sometimes it helps and other times it’s too personal and we don’t want to talk about it. Just know that we are here for you. I hope the MHT see you soon. Glad you went to the GP.
Keep posting a bit. Just anything that you want to say. We all have our personal worries and anxieties and whilst they may all be different, the suffering and pain is the same so we do understand. Take care.
annie hope you are ok.
Sleep well all x
