"People who begin a task or go through it with an optimistic perspective tend to find themselves being more successful than those who doubt or believe in failure before even starting."


6:20am in Alberta, today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

24 more please, and thanks...

Thanks for the new thread Dee!

♥ Good morning. Did not sleep at all well, sigh.



But another 24 will definitely help. So may I please have 24 hours of precious beautiful freedom?

So much love to everyone. ♥

Fantastic news Neoo!

And Shortstop, I read a quote the other day that I like and you might too... something like, 'we can either make ourselves miserable or we can make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same.'

I guess, like Pebbles said, you have to try to turn that anger into something positive, whilst being kind to yourself. I think part of that is acknowledging the anger but not allowing it to become self destructive. Writing about your dream and talking about it here is a great start in getting that anger out of your head. Be gentle with yourself, you're doing great xxx

Got saline nose wash, paracetomol and vicks .
Would love some suggestions
Oh Vinny love.....I empathise.

Yes.....plenty of suggestions. Vitamin C. And a doctor, because once you have a fever your body is fighting an infection. It's a good idea to get your chest checked out love. I would....or I wouldn't and that would be silly.

Lots of fluids and try and get some rest even though you are probably really busy.

Abd hugs....hugs always help.

I had some awful dreams last night, about my former stepfather and abuse I suffered when I was younger. I'm also holding on to some heavy feelings of resentment, triggered by a conversation with a loved one last night (unrelated to my dream).

Now I'm stewing in self-pity, feeling taken for granted, etc. I know these are destructive emotions, but at what point am I *allowed* to be angry about certain things in my life?
Honey....of course you are allowed to be angry.

You have to feel the emotions, move through them no matter how painful I think, in order to get to the other side.

That is my experience, anyway.

Like me, you may need to talk through this stuff more with a safe person. I got lots of therapy and then found that talking through everything that happened with Nick helped me put it all to rest. I had no idea that would happen.

More love sweety.
