I'm just lovin how far this Orange Undie Day has gone! As I've said, I'll be in it too. I will be smiling like a stupid crazy woman all day cause I too will be wearing my orange undies and thinking of all the others joining me across Australia. :-x
Sure, there will be many people who won't know what the hell we've been drinking, smoking etc (and we may spend some time in a padded cell with all the lolcats who followed us in), but we will be united!! :^O
Wow there really are some strong women here! Now for those of you who have said you WERENT STRONG AT THE TIME - you are very wrong!!! I'm sorry to be abrupt, but it takes guts to 'do what you have to do' to get your situation right again. It is so easy to just stay in bed, try to ignore what is going wrong and give up. It's STRENGTH that gets you out of that mind set!
I totally understand (and have done it myself) wanting to just do nothing, thinking about giving up on the whole messy situation - but sometimes I think that is just what we might need right then. It gives us time to think, time with ourselves and our own thoughts. I find that is when I can come back to reality with a clear head and able to tackle things head on.
Cat honey, you are strong. Even in those moments when you need to go away and cry. If that is what is needed for you right then - then do it! It's OK to allow yourself to FEEL what you are feeling. One day, you will wake up and realise you just dont need to cry anymore. So let it out now!
You've always got us! And we are all going to be wearing orange undies - so that means (It's like a law now!) that we are strong, happy and we will be OK!! :-x And I think it also means if we eat some yummy chocolates on Feb 14th while we are wearing Orange Undies, that we wont put on weight either!!! (Cause you know, it's a speshal day an all;-) Even IF we have to buy them for ourselves!!)
Love and hugs everyone! :-x
