Am Not Coping

[Faith-and-Hope]

Hi @Zoe7 .... I saw that and I figured that was what happened .... I "liked" some of the responses because I know that is what your forum friends wish for you because they love you and want what they feel would be best for you .... but I also know how you feel and how difficult it would have been to read ....

I was just thinking of you ..... ❣️

The sun is just rising over the river here through a cloud of fog, making its light a very strong orange colour .... actually now that I think about it that might be smoke from a burn-off in the hills ..... that is what makes the sunlight that colour usually ..... in any case, the river is a corresponding shade of blue -  opposites on the colour wheel - with this darkish smoke / fog smudging everything just like a Monet painting .....

Maybe I should have a canvas out and be trying to paint this in 15mins aka Money eh ..... ??  Lol ..... it would take me longer than that to set up ..... 😆

I think my painting has another couple of hours in it.  I want to try to finish it today so it dries while we are away.

I do understand that those members have their own views and are free to express them but I did find it difficult to read because I thought those members knew exactly how I feel about the issue. Even my psychiatrist has said that even though she would like me in hospital she also thinks it would add more trauma on top of everything else. 

The colours of the sky and water sound absolutely magical @Faith-and-Hope - and yes - it would take me longer than 15 mins to set up too!

You are going away - where are you going?

[Faith-and-Hope]

Over to Melbourne @Zoe7 .....for a week .... just a visit this time. We haven't been there since around April. It will be a bit strange going this time with the thought that we will spending a lot more time there.

I am looking at silver linings and will use the time to explore, and hopefully, hopefully, get across to Tassie at some stage ..... 🤗💕

Won't be this trip tho ..... have to spend the weekend in Sydney for business reasons, so it will be bouncing around for the next week or so ..... scrambles my brain a bit so I am not planning much other than a visit to the NGV.

I haven't been to Melbourne for a long time now. I used to go twice a year. There are so many galleries and museums (think I have probably been to nearly all of them at some stage). If you get a chance go to the Holocaust Museum in Elsternwick. It is definitely not a place to go when you are not feeling ok yourself but the people there are beautiful souls (they all have a connection to the war in some way) and the art is both inspiring and heartbreaking @Faith-and-Hope.

Maybe come down to Tassie later in the year when it isn't as cold - and then maybe you'll be able to walk along the beach and see a little white fluffball running around with his mummy having a great time  - who knows - Tassie is a small place lol

[Faith-and-Hope]

Wouldn't that be wonderful .... ??❣️

Gotta dash to an apt ..... back later .....

Hugs ..... 💚💐💕

Gonna think of beachwalking in Tassie all day now .... 🤗 .... white ball of fluff in tow ..,,,

@Faith-and-Hope Toby would love you (he loves everyone but I have a feeling he would follow you anywhere - he would know how special you are straight away ) 

I'll try to come on again later Hon.

💚💐💕 .... Zoe7

@Faith-and-Hope I wonder if the council workers would come inside and take everything out of my spare room so I didn't have to move it all to the footpath lol - I do have some connections with the Mayor - so maybe I could put a request straight to her!!! Then the room would be ready anytime for you 

Toby seems to sleep in there when I go to my appoinments - I often come home to pillows on the floor. I think he must snuggle in with his big bunny in the corner of the couch and kick the pillows off when he moves around in his sleep - he's really good at that - I often get a paw to the face when I actually get some sleep in bed 

[Faith-and-Hope]

😊 @Zoe7 .... I love hearing about Toby's escapades .....

D3 in bed today .... dysmenorrhea (sigh) .... so I am on waitressing duty. She hasn't had breakfast yet. Gotta go see to that .... back in a bit.

[Zoe7]

@Faith-and-Hope I hope D3 is doing better tonight and your waitressing duties have finished. I will hopefully be asleep soon - extra meds seem to be working quickly tonight. With any luck I won't wake up until at least this time tomorrow morning. ...and don't worry - just taken a few extra!

Not sure when/if I'll be back on here - see how the rest of tonight (and tomorrow if I make it) goes.

Hope you sleep well tonight Hon.

Love and hugs...

Zoe
