@Boredofthegram you are another name I miss a lot when you are not as active. I am sorry you are having a tough patch. If you lived near me (and I was at home, or even if not mr jelly is there and he is running a wild ship so anything could happen) you could come over and both be fed, mini bored can run wild and free with my bunch and you can sit on the sofa with your legs tucked under you in your comfy clothes and just get cosy and relax for a while. Sometimes it is just to be looked after and not be the one having to make the decisions 24/7 that we need. You and mini would always be welcome at mine.

Lovely doggos, I love seeing the pictures of everyone's pets. I'm definitely a dog person but the cats you all share are lovely too.
I think I have realised why I adore and value you lot so much. There is real, kind, genuine support given to people who need it but then the next post down is one of those pick one from each row A5B type things and it just fits in seemlessy and then we are all talking about favourite ice lollies alongside the supportive posts that someone else needs right now.
So fab. (the ice lolly too!) I know I have said it before but having you lot as my link to the outside world is so important for my mental health, just seeing you chat about b&m or the new McDonalds burger is so nice for me even if I cannot add to the conversation. It reminds me that the real world is still out there turning even if I am isolated and not part of it.
Anyway, another day here. Two of my favourite staff are working today. And they are going to give me a bath, they have a really fancy bath here that you can be hosted into and it has bubbles like a hot tub. It is so nice for my body but also for my mental health. I would always take a bath at home as a little pick me up and treat at the end of a rough day.
I have always struggled a bit with my mental health, with anxiety and ocd (see, I am a clinical psychologist in my job life, we are real people too!) But this week have fallen off a cliff with it and am in a really dark pace with it all. The things I know help me are things I am not able to do easily - have a nice bath, take a walk in nature etc., now.
Anyway, it is a new day. The blue sky is here outside my window and so I'm trying to focus on the positives that I can see. I'm lucky here because i have a lovely view from my window, over fields/countryside and can see horses in the field - there are little bits of positivity out there.
Anyway, have rambled enough. That is how you can tell I'm not right, I sit here giving my entire life story to anyone who will listen!!

i got a long message from mr strawb this morning about how much he loves me and i thought wtf is this then i remembered
