New thread here, since the Last Thread has ever so slowly filled up. Isn't it amazing how little our worries crept up in the night when the world was actually one big worry?

Pandemic or not, this is the place to just park your worries. We don't ask questions, or try to solve your problems. We just hold them, tenderly, carefully, until you are strong enough to take them back. If they choose not to come back, all the better.

Signing in for the Night Shift, V3!

@BelladiMamma

I will take them and stuff them with pasta and a cherry tomato sauce.

Sleep well and leave these worried to me.

Hannayeah · 03/08/2021 00:04

To us then.

BelladiMamma · 03/08/2021 00:05

Thank you both

Can I have a handhold? In A&E with a very poorly toddler. It's been a long evening.

Thank you so much. It's a lonely place despite being so busy. We've finally made it to the children's a&e after 4 hours so hoping we get seen soon. Flowers

2018SoFarSoGreat · 03/08/2021 00:16

Ah@firefly glad they are lovely because 4 hours is a heck of a wait for a toddler, never mind you! Here's to this being an easy fix, whatever it is.

We are all holding your worry so you just take care of you both.

Can I please drop mine off tonight? I thought I was rallying but this heartbreak shit is unpredictable.

I've got you for tonight, @ABitOfAShitShow. You just let it go and go rest. Take all the time you need.

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 03/08/2021 23:18

I’m happy to mind your heartbreak.

I can’t sew. I can’t crochet. I can’t do airfix models neatly.

I’ll have a shot at sorting the cracks. It’ll look wonky as wonk but if you sleep you won’t be that bothered.

I’ve been watching escape to the chateau. The make do and mend one. I’ll have a bash sorting it kintsugi stylee.

Celebrate the imperfections as they said. A wonky but sparkly heart.

Damaged but glorying on. Imperfectly perfect.

Sleep well cherub 🌻 x

Trigger warning for MC...

I'm 8 weeks tomorrow. Thought I'd had a MC and 'passed' everything a week ago - scan showed an empty sac. A week later they find something has progressed and it's now not empty, but is measuring 5-6wks with no heartbeat. Fed up and just want to know either way.

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 03/08/2021 23:22

Sorry - that was for the show

But you are already in fab hands with 2018 Smile

Your money worries can keep the moths in my purse company.

They will eat them instead of my jumpers. Every one is a winner.

Sleep tight and the bedbugs won’t bite as the moths will have them tae.

Sorted. 🌻 x

2018SoFarSoGreat · 03/08/2021 23:25

For now, leave that worry and sadness right here with us. We shall hold it tenderly and let you sleep. Your poor body needs the rest, so go do that. We've got you.
