Some unexpected good news
A situation that's been stressful slowly being put right
Other people's good spirits helping to keep mine buoyed

Glad you’ve had some positive news @Optimist1.

Today I’m grateful for good friends.

Face time calls .

Gosh, I've been AWOL for ages. We are having a dreadful, ongoing MH crisis in the family which has been keeping me very busy.

I am grateful
That I am able to help
That my kids are all either adults or almost adults and can look after themselves
That life goes on

Sorry to hear you're having to cope with tough times, @Lessstressedhemum . From what I've learned of you, your faith and your children will be assisting you. Flowers

Lessstressedhemum · 22/07/2020 10:22

Thank you, optimist. Right now my faith and my kids are the only things holding me together. The fight to try to get my daughter in law any help at all is exhausting and trying to help my son deal with her psychosis and suicide attempts is wearing us all down to our knees. I can't believe how poor our mental health services are.

Faith
Family
Sleep

MrsM1717 · 22/07/2020 23:30

I'm great full & thankful to my parents for being bloody good parents. I don't tell them that enough but I will from now on.
Also My husband & best friend who works so hard for us & deserves the world.

I'm thankful to who ever it is that is watching over us & keeps us blessed.

I'm thankful to all the key workers that kept this country going.

The weather is lovely; things could be quite grim if it wasn't for the warmth and sunshine
Recent technology problems sorted
The benefits of a good laugh - almost as great as a good hug
