Anyone awake? Can you just chill me out a bit??

[RozHuntleysLeftHand]

I've got a load of shit going on and I need to start another thread on that (I've had a couple recently) bit I can't deal with right now talking about it.

It's come to a head tonight, but will just rant on and on and I need to sleep!

If anyone is up can you just send me a joke/silly pet pic/say something soothing cos otherwise I'm going to go insane and I need to be up at 6.

Maybe a relaxing podcast recommendation?

I don't know, I'm so fucking tense and need to actually relax.

Cheers Northenbird I like that idea. And your cat is gorgeous. I used to have a dog but sadly she died a couple of years ago. My son is desperate for a cat though, when we move we will get one I think!

Thanks Alex

Tara I literally want to be that boy in that video, I want to be licked to death by puppies!

It would heal a lot of crappiness wouldn't it? :)

I remember your latest threads, it's all shit right now hey?

It will get better again though. You'll come out the other side.

Is your head clear enough to try a meditation? Do you like ASMR?

a little I have saved that meme... Bloody brilliant.

Thank you all, just knowing there's a little community out there has really freaking helped actually.

Feel a bit tearful but now in a nice way because of the kindness of strangers on the Internet!

Thanks again everyone for helping chill me out, I'll be back in the morning, Im going to watch the videos again and read the silly jokes and hopefully get some sleep now.

Oh and thanks again Tara. Yeah it is shit, but thank you so much for the support. I will try that right now.

Off to try to sleep lovely people. Xx

Saw this pig today, not what you expect in a front garden!

Our 2 silkie chickens on going into the holiday accommodation and stunned there is no grass.

Our cat, she is 17.

Hope this link works, I don't know why but this always cracks me up

These are the prayers I am remembering after an encounter with an 8 legged beasty next to my floor level bed.

Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work, or watch, or weep this night, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend the sick, Lord Christ; give rest to the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous; and all for your love's sake.

Save us while waking and guard us while sleeping that awake we may watch with Christ and asleep may rest in peace.

I need guarding from those creatures that must not be named. The neighbours may already have been women by a screech and swearing followed by the sound of the hoover...

Have you tried ASMR?

This made me laugh..

I’m still awake but won’t be any help. My elderly mother has had a fall, we can’t move her and have now been waiting for over 6 hours for an ambulance.

Lie on the floor, and do about 15 minutes of some simple yoga positions.

Hope she is ok @MadisonAvenue

the stars are amazing tonight. Well worth looking out of the window for.

My DS's favourite joke:

Knock Knock
Who's there?
Europe
Europe who?
No! You're a poo!

(This joke only works if you say it out loud. I would apologise for it but I'm not sorry 😅)

Hope you got some sleep in the end @RozHuntleysLeftHand ❤️

My husband keeps talking to our 6 month old in a John Wayne voice, especially at meal times. He doesn't know why which amuses me further.

He made this and sent it to me while I was getting DS to sleep earlier. Gave myself a headache trying to contain my snorts.

(This may well only be funny to me but it cheered me up so I hope it cheers you a bit too!)

Morning @RozHuntleysLeftHand - I hope you managed to get some sleep. I’ve woken up to blue sky and sunshine, I hope you’re feeling brighter this morning. Have a lovely day! x

I hope today's a better day for you Roz. You're not alone, I'm wading through shit at the minute too. Its dreadful.
