I don't post often enough to have one. I've got one in real life, but I just ignore him these days. ๐ I've learnt he just baits me for a reaction then uses it against me so I no longer play the game. More power to me I say. :-x

Hi Lovely OKers :-x
I think I'm back. I realised tonight I haven't posted for about 12 months, though I have lurked a little when time allowed.
I miss you all.
Is everybody doing reasonably OK?

Hi there all you OK wearing lovely people. ~~~~~~*waves*
MsCat, I have been wearing my OK's today. :-x
Jacks, how mad for Master James Crazy. I would love to have a go at that. I jumped out of a parachute plane once, but unfortunately it was on the ground. ๐
I loved the orange roses.
She ele, you made some wonderful posts. You are very wise, just like dtrh.
There are too many posts that I had to catch up on to comment on them all, but mostly I agree with you all.
Alicia update: :-x:-x
She is to be moved to the High Dependency Neurological Ward. It may have happened already. If not, it will be soon.
She is still very weak and not eating or talking but the Physiotherapy and Speech Pathology will help with all that.
She still has a long way to go, but is certainly on the right path.
Thank you to everyone for all your constant well wishes for her. :-x

Wow! Lots of posts.
I'm feeling a little better after having acupuncture. I had my adrenals stimulated. I have pain in my hip too, which my Chinese Medicine doctor thinks is residual emotion/anniversary type stuff but he got my Chi moving. He said I'm emotionally and physically exhausted and my nervous system is shot. My liver is crap and my body is full of knots. I'm seeing him next week too.
Cyn did you tell me off in your post? ๐
No, I dont need a man in my life. It would be nice having a HEALTHY LOVING man to share my life with but I'm not going out there to find myself one. Nooooo thanks.
When I said I wanted to work on why I attracted a man like Mr Ex, I meant more of why I stayed with a man like Mr Ex for as long as I did. He did get emotionally and verbally abusive for the last few years and really I should have kicked him to the kerb then. Instead I waited for the inevitable to happen.
As for being 'encouraged' to leave him? :^O Now that's funny.
Well maybe not funny to some. I guess there are women out there that chose to accept the crumbs their wayward hubby's throw to them. I guess some women are happy to turn a blind eye to their spouses infidelity. Some choose to reconciliate and I may have given Mr Ex a chance had he immediately thrown Skankyho under a bus, got counselling and put in 200% to earn my trust again .. maybe.
but he didn't.
He just sent me lame emails and texts after Skankyho threw him under the karma truck.
Anyhoo ..
If I look after myself, if I'm kind to myself .. I'll get through this week.
Hugs to all :-x

Nah I didn't cat. Just blew my own trumpet and advised you to have a look at yourself from a different direction and start blowing yours. Somebody didn't like it and dobbed on me though.

Bumping with me orange Toosdee Panties!
I hope all are well :-x
Ms Braff we need an update on Alicia!
I had a mini meltdown over the last few days but I've put on my big girl panties and have reached out for help. Friends and family have rallied around and I had a private meeting with my Team Leader at work. I told him I wanted to apply for stress leave. Unfortunately they need me to step in as Team Leader for March and can't give me time off. So I said "what if I bring a letter from my GP?". He said yes, then we have to give you leave but it will have to come out of your sick leave but you don't have enough hours for that.
So we came to a compromise. They are giving me 2 weeks leave at the end of March. ๐
But until then I'm back to chanting (why did I stop?) and pacing myself.
I should have taken more time off last year but it's a lesson learned. You can't keep pushing yourself until you drop.
Hugs to all!
