Afternoon lovlies x

I hope you are all keeping as well as can be

A lot of new mixed posts here , but the one that has stuck with me is how some comments can really make people doubt there ownself and that is not right, we are all individuals on different stages of this journey through no fault of our own, we are here to offer support, help, and understanding, to stay or leave that is each and everyone own decision only as many of us know, I could go on but I won't as I try to keep our catch up about what you have all been up to in the last week

Work has been ok a few challenges but ended the week on a positive, I am still watching Game of Thrones, it is deffinatly an eye opener

It was my eldest sons Birthday yesterday 33

Me and my daughter have a visit with the HC tomorrow, the money bag is full, he is doing ok looking forward to seeing us, personally I think it's more looking forward to what he can eat :-)

I hope whatever you have planned it involves something to bring a smile to your face even if its just briefly

Love sent as always xx

I have never said so, but wanted to just say a huge thank you for your Friday updates, they always make me smile.
Personally not a great week for us, as it's all just about to kick off again with second interview, after a long wait, and all the emotions have come flooding back.

Oh what fun this road is.....

A good week this week, all activities back on after the Christmas break. It was my birthday yesterday too. I started a protective parent course during the week too which feels like it will be helpful which is always positive.
I hope you have a lovely visit tomorrow and look forward to the hungry caterpillars list.

Sending all love and strength as always xxx

First of all I'd like to send love to all, some stories on here this week have been very very sad.

Not bad week - dragged on a bit in parts. Had a bit of a 'downer' today, not quite sure why been no triggers. Still we pull ourselves up don't we?

Hope you have a good visit Upset, HC must fart like mad after the feast you provide, haha!!!!!!

Try to relax over the weekend ladies xxxxxx

Horendous week for me, I'm beginning to think (and am also being told by SS) I can't trust my own mind, or something is wrong with my thought process.

Enjoy your visit tomorrow and tell us what he eats. Bet he is skinny despite all!

Dont you dare let anyones opinions get inside your head, I know SS have a job to do I am fortunate I dont have to deal with them,

Honestly lovely look at how far you have come this is just so wrong and unfair

Look in a mirror and see that incredible strong person looking back at you , be kind to yourself and dont let anyone take that away from you no matter how difficult this journey is , sending huge hugs xx

A good week for me. I'm finally over the flu and feeling a lot better in myself.

My son finished his community hours today. I feel really proud of the way he has grown in confidence throughout the process and has had some positive feedback from others saying he has really helped them settle into the group.

Smile, enjoy your big hug and time with HC this weekend. I look forward to reading his extensive food list.

My heart goes out to all those who are really struggling. This time of year can be difficult. The Christmas focus and drive has gone and we are left to get through a cold dark month. But, the lighter days are on their way and so are better times. For anyone at the start of this journey, I can promise you things do eventually get easier.

I just wanted to say hi . It's Old New Year this weekend and celebrated in parts of Scotland . Thinking it's another chance not for resolutions but think how far we have come . Good to read your Friday Check In . I have only recently felt strong enough to start to read posts on this Forum . This is my first post and I seem to remember when I signed up 15 months ago after the knock I chose a male name unthinkingly and didn't know how to change it .

Hello friday check in

I am glad your feeling better Ocean and hope your visit goes well tomorrow Upset.

Week has been ok. Just mega tired which does not help. Nothing really to report. I havent really done anything.



Going on a long walk tomorrow with a friend and furbaby which will be nice. It is a walk i love but it difficult. Will get my lungs working!



Hope everyone has a good week. X
