Canadian Koala, very good analogy. I think that often it's not possible to put the glass down though.

Mags1 03-06-2022 08:30 AM

Koala, great video! Makes so much sense. I need to put my glass down sometimes.

Leshar yes I got some rest, feel much better, thanks.

Timely video CK.

Sending positive vibes Aly and Mags.

There has been a sudden surge of £50 million houses on the market in London this last week. Not for nothing is it sometimes called Londongrad.:c041:


Alysheba 03-06-2022 11:54 AM

Thank you, Sao. You are the best! That is very interesting about the Londoners! :hug:

I have a large painful bruise on the back of my right leg. I was getting out of my brother's car at the store and didn't open the car door all the way and it swung shut on my leg. :dee Now it hurts like hell and I have a huge hard lump on my leg where the bruise is. :(

saoutchik 03-06-2022 12:15 PM

Sorry about your leg least, you're not having much luck with them recently. I'm glad Billie is OK with the Great Dane. They are more like a small horse than a dog.

Robbie64 03-06-2022 12:17 PM

Yikes, that sounds painful least. I hope it doesn't get worse in the next 24 hours.

I think I better go for a long walk tomorrow. This afternoon I ate an entire large chocolate bar and a big packet of crisps and I'm still feeling full. 😮

Dee74 03-06-2022 12:26 PM

You’re going to have to join me in being wrapped in bubble wrap least :)

it hurts so bad right now, like electric shocks. if i move at all it sends shooting pains all the way up my right leg. I took three tylenol an hour ago and if the pain isn't any better, or is worse, i'm going to call the emt's to go to the er. I am scared. This pain is awful. :(

Alysheba 03-06-2022 12:48 PM

Least :hug: I'm so sorry. You did not need that. Maybe you should call an ambulance if it's hurting that badly. Esp with the blood clot issue. Sending prayers, dear one. :Valdog:

saoutchik 03-06-2022 01:04 PM

Testing 123..

Jo43 03-06-2022 01:09 PM

I'm so sorry for your loss Sao xx

saoutchik 03-06-2022 01:09 PM

Ah, it's working, couldn't post earlier.

Thanks Jo!

Alysheba 03-06-2022 01:15 PM

I've had the same issue, Sao. I hope it's working for me now. :)

Jo43 03-06-2022 01:21 PM

Hi all

Sorry to hear about your leg Least hope it will ease soon.

Sorry to hear about your car Manta. Hope you are doing ok.

Good luck Calm on the next stage of the job process

Hope you are all doing ok this weekend.

I have felt meh the last week or so, so I have been hiding. I went back to church this morning which really helped. I feel happier and calmer now. Watching a horror with my partner before off to bed. I'm now 322 days sober. Here's to a better week for all I hope xx

Alysheba 03-06-2022 01:34 PM

Congrats Jo, on your sober time. :fest30:

Dee74 03-06-2022 01:40 PM

If its that bad i wouldn't wait, least.

Leshar 03-06-2022 01:48 PM

Least, I'm sorry that happened. I imagine you're on blood thinners because of the clot. I agree with Dee, best get it checked sooner than later.

least 03-06-2022 01:51 PM

I took three tylenol almost two hours ago and it seems to have worked. The overwhelming pain is gone, even when I move my leg. If it gets bad again I'll call my doctor in the morning and try to get in,


My post count - 93939 - is a palindrome. :)

Mags1 03-06-2022 02:56 PM

Take care Least. :hug:

Jo, pleased you’re feeling better. Congratulations on 322 days. :c011:

Robbie64 03-06-2022 03:17 PM

End of Day 113 - Hope everyone is having a great sober day. Please remember, more than we can't have it, it's more important that we don't need it. Just pure poisonous addictive, depressing substance.

Good night from Seattle!

Mags1 03-06-2022 11:07 PM

Goodnight calmself. :)

BTW way "written off" comes from the insurance industry. A "write off" is anything that would cost as much or more to repair than it would to replace.

No colourful intro this week, I was informed my dad died in the early hours of this morning, he was 84. We were not close so there is no mourning as such but some emptiness that we had such a poor relationship. He had not seen my daughters or my sister/bil's children for over a decade.

so very sorry to hear this, sending love x

saoutchik 03-07-2022 08:24 AM

Hey! Good to see you petals! Thank you and how are you?

Congratulations on 322 days Jo!

Alysheba 03-07-2022 09:30 AM

Doing a ton of laundry this morning. I'll be glad to get it over with. We have new washers in our laundry room and they take a little longer. I dream of having my own washer and dryer again someday! It will be awesome to have an empty hamper after I'm done. LOL.
Have a great Monday all. Thinking of all of you and sending love and peace. :grouphug: 💗☮
