Venus - I am as naive as it gets. It often backfires, but at the same time it allows me to connect with my inner child. And if to choose between being naive and cynical, I am choosing naive all day long.

I am having an emotional meltdown with self-beating thoughts that I am no good.

Recently I've been working on my own project a lot and I am at the stage of the "belly of the beast" when there is only work and no results of light at the end of the tunnel. And I am doubting myself all the way.

It's tough.

Thank you, weekenders, for being here.
Thank you honey....I so appreciate you sharing that....I feel the same way.....just so reassuring to hear xx

And although you are tired and doubting yourself, WE do not doubt you for a second. You can fight through this tough part....I think you need a break for a few hours just to do something nice for your lovely inner child....you will bring back your joy.

So much love s

Not good still, I have done something underhand which should resolve the situation next week though. I do not feel great about it but someone needs to learn that cooperation is better than confrontation.

Phew what a scorcher! 19C or 66F today.

Kind of a twitchy thread so far.

Me too. My cat who I've had for 14 years may need to be put down in the next couple days.

This is one of those times I feel a bit too alone.

Im so sorry to hear that Blue, I have 4 cats and grew up surrounded by cats so know how much they are part of a family. 14 years is a grand age though and im sure 14 years of being adored. Focus on the positives

Thanks, ya'll.

He was a shelter cat. When I worked at the shelter he was there and I was asked to foster him because he wasn't acclimating to the shelter. So I took him home. I did not want a third cat. But as they do, he picked us as his family and so it went. I have been very blessed to share a home with this sensitive soul. He is the gentle boy. He's probably around 17-18 years old. It's time.

Now I'm crying. Ack. I guess it's to be expected.

Hi petals!

66F is a heatwave? Don't move to the USA South.

Sorry 'bout the kitty, Bim.
