Hey @Captain24 ,
Sorry, I had to get hop off for a bit. Back on now. All good.
Yes, those trees sound so so special! Do you have photos of them?
Sorry to hear your mind is wandering.

Are you ok? @tyme. If it’s to much think of yourself not us.
They are just 2 sticks. Mum reckons they will grow from that.
My mind is planning things. I’m going to drive a different way to work so it’s not the same road.
Sorry.. no more dumping on you. I should stop being inconsiderate.
Hows the kids or have you not been seeing them?

I think things are a bit crappy for the both of us at the moment @Captain24 ?
I'm looking forward to tackling it though. I'm not about to give up.
Sorry the thoughts are still there.

Any kid antics to share? @tyme
O was trying to watch tv and I couldn’t hear it for the two dogs running and playing. Jetts so vocal. It’s lucky he can’t talk cause he’d never shut up!
I just sent you an email.

Hey @Captain24 ,
I practiced some mindfulness using the Smiling Mind app last night.
Then, today, I spoke to a therapist about what's going on.
I feel so much better today.
Also, tomorrow, it you are around, I'll be free to chat around 2-4pm? I'm not staying on, but I'll be free to chat then. I feel I haven't spoken to you much.

I’m glad you are feeling better @tyme. I came home from work and the first thing I did was message you!
I’m not around then, I’ll be at work…
Ill be around at around 8 on Sunday night.
We haven’t really talked much. But I guess we both have lots going on.
I stood up for myself today! I was getting belittled on the 2 way and I gave it back to him. He’s an arrogant pig so it probably didn’t go well that I answered back. I did spend the next hour crying though.
Also. I drove to work a different way and there was no risky behaviour as I don’t know the road. On the way home I came the normal way and it all came back. Escape plans and all.
