Need a hand hold

Morning nornironlady,
Ohhh what did you have on your toast?
Ive no plans to get out over weekend but Monday I have a hospital appointment and after then when I get back my mental health team said they would take me to Tescos . I’ve made a little list of what I need to get. I can’t wait to be able to do a food shop when I get a house and make proper meals.
I do feel more relaxed than yesterday thank you, I can sit and think about my children instead of having that hanging over my head too xx

Morning PeggyMitchellsCameo,
How are you today?
Oh I love tea and biscuits, I find that digestives don’t normally fit into my mug so I break them in half and dunk . I’m not a dip and bite kinda girl I’m a dunker get it in one girl. Also Jaffa cakes are my downfall I can’t just eat one or two and I full moon them so yeah I’m greedy when it comes to biscuits.
I’m just sat with a cup of tea and my breakfast to go box , today I’ve got juice , corn flakes and a croissant so that will last me until after lunch.
Thank you for the hug and sending a big one back xx

Morning Meanwhile33,
Thank you so much. The MN’s on here are all lovely wonderful people , I will be forever thankful to them . And the email was brilliant wasn’t it, I read it to my mental health nurse and she was so impressed!
My mental health did definitely start during relationship with ex, I used to be a bubbly happy confident person who could make friends with anybody but he took all that from me. He ruined my peace that’s for sure. He was his happiest when I was my most upset. He would be delighted if he knew everything that’s happened since he made me homeless.
Re my parents I think that’s how I am with my children , I always want them to feel loved and I always say when I’m with them ‘come and give mummy a cuddle’ and I’m very affectionate with them. I don’t ever want them to crave my love and not feel as though they can get it.
Thank you @Meanwhile33 I do feel safe here and although I deeply miss my children and am still homeless I feel as though I can’t start to heal from the trauma of everything xx

Hi RaspberryBeretxx,
I hope you have a lovely coffee date with your friend and have a big slice of cake with it.
Im just getting ready to go down for some breakfast now xx

Morning ChoccieCornflake,
It’s amazingly wonderful isn’t it! And thank you for your loveliness ❤️
I did have a lovely sleep thank you, not been to sleep that early in months. Hopefully it can carry on after I stop taking the sleeping meds .
Have you got any plans for today?xx

Morning Munchyseeds2,
How are you today?
Well I have to say I had the best sleep that I’ve had in a long time last night.
I laid on the bed with my book about 9.45pm and I’ve woke up this morning not believing that I’ve slept all the way through with my book next to me.
It’s a beautiful poem isn’t it, I love it . Thank you to the wonderful person who wrote it for me, I will keep it forever.
Hmmm for my bedroom I would like something plain but with pops of colour in it or I really like blue and white together . I want to get my children’s bedrooms done first so it’s all cosy for them when they are with me xx

Awww , how lovely, thank you so much NeedWineNow.
Today really is great news I’m still in shock.
I was listening to Coldplay , fix you earlier . It made me think of all of you and I imagined us all singing it waving our wooden spoons in the air …

When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above, or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try, you'll never know
Just what you're worth
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face, and I
Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face, and I
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Xx

Awww thank you RaspberryBeretxx ☺️
Have you got any plans for the weekend?xx

Ohhh I’ll have a look for some headphones at Tesco and some colouring books , I didn’t think of that , thank you 🙏
Oh I’ll not forget the biscuits lol , I might even buy a broccoli and crunch on it . Actually I could get some celery.
Fireworks outside tonight , really makes me miss my children. I can’t look outside the windows tonight as there’s a big fair on the left of the hotel and I can hear people screaming and shouting etc so I’ve put the tv on . Hopefully next year I can make up for it and do something special with them xx

It’s beautiful isn’t it RaspberryBeretxx,
Its definitely going in my book that’s for sure
My name comes from the Latin word Laurus , meaning laurel. In Roman times the laurel tree was associated with victory and honour and was used to crown leaders and poets . Thank you for liking my name.

This part I got from google :
As a result, the name Laura came to be associated with victory, honor, and fame. People named Laura are often described as being intelligent, graceful, and charming. They are always willing to help others, and they are always there for their loved ones.

I’m definitely going to get some vegetable cup a soup and some porridge . It’s lovely that my MH team are willing to do that for me. Everybody has been so so kind. I’m going to get them a big box of chocolates to say thank you xx

A New Dawn fo My Spoon

Sitting here with my suitcase my head in my hands,
Wondering if it’s time now to really say goodbye,
But something else is meant for me on the right side of this track,
The kindness of strangers who have simply left a reply.
They have believed me, and listened, and never questioned my words,
There is an enveloping acceptance in that,
I have a feeling they will follow wherever life leads me,
Friends made, and confidences shared, my thread a welcoming mat.
Life has dealt me too many blows of late but now I come up for air,
Knowing I’m not alone logging each progress made,
I am glad that I sat on the wrong platform for me,
I was meant for much more, after baby steps are laid.
So let’s all have a cuppa, and know we have each other,
Because family is where you find it, not always were you were born,
Keep me in your prayers, so a new roof and a renewed start,
Means my spoon finds a home, and my life finds a fresh dawn.

I didn’t write this absolutely amazing poem , it was given to me by an amazing woman , I can’t stop reading it xx

😂😂😂Ohhh that sounds lovely . I like rum in my cocktails too.
Who cares if it’s ladylike or not , aslong as you enjoy it that’s all that matters.
Oh your tea sounds amazing! I’m glad you enjoyed it. Enjoy your big cup of tea xx

Hi nzeire,
How are you?
Thank you so much .
It does feel good being able to stand up for yourself and saying ‘actually that is not ok’ but again I wouldn’t have had the strength or courage to do that without all the lovely people on here who have supported me xx
