That sounds delicious Alan. 😋Is it similar to the type of icecream, Hokey Pokey, they have in New Zealand? 🤔 I don't know if you should be playing with bees 🐝

I'm grateful for the nice people on this site. I tried a different forum with people in my local area. I thought it would be good way to meet people, especially since I'm still stuck working from home. But one person got somewhat confrontational with me, and I left the forum. I wish I could say I have thick skin. But something about online stuff really triggers me. I just don't think people would say half the things they say online if it were face to face. No matter what new forums I try, I always seem to find myself back here.

That’s so true there’s a veil of comfort that is there with writing vs real face to face conversations. It’s easier to let things slip out. I’m so sorry you had to deal with that bad experience. I hope you’ve liked it here. You are an important part of us. We love ya ❤️

This week I am so grateful for the support I have received while going through a big life stressor. 99% of it came from my friends on HU. People that understand triggers and that our mental health comes first. Thank you to those that supported me and gave me encouragement.

I'm also grateful that I could finally come to a place where I could open my heart to a pet. I'm getting so excited and it's the best feeling. 🦔🦔🦔🦔

Thank you soul sister for being there for me.

❤️🐬

For my personal specialist, I have Schwannomatosis NF3 had the condition since 1970, various surgeries through that time, actually diagnosed with it in March 2017. She has pulled me through various episodes of me gurning and groaning, since becoming my personal specialist in May 2021. A rather colourful 'period' in my life in the last year, a good shoulder for me to cry onto, and a good friend👍👍👍
