I am so happy for you two girls getting to have some fun times together. Have been reading about your plans and think this is absolutely the best thing for both of you.

So happy for you- have fun and RELAX!

Helloooooo, anyone around??

Hey Space, thanks for the update on why you were at your moms house and in such a funk, but it's also pretty great to know that you went AF for a few days and made it thru, which doesn't mean that you have to go AF permanently, but that you were able to do it when you needed to, and that is quite an accomplishment, BTY, I would have had more than one whiskey under the covers:H:H

Dizz, how is your holiday going in Turkey? I hope you can post a couple of pics for us, I'm wishing I could go to those places, one of these days when I am not spending most of my time in Spain helping out with family things, I am really going to make some time for me to travel while I'm there. when are you going home? Is BF going with you or later? Will you be trying for another Visa to the UK? Sure wish we could meet up this time around while I'm there, but for sure at some point.

Wu, where are you? Are you ok? Please post and let us know how you are doing:h

I've been working lots, too much, but I have to pay the rent and in this area that is considerable. My schedule actually looks very bare for November, I usually worry that I won't have work but it always turns out ok. I do need to make sure that I have the rent and bill money set aside for the month that I will be in Spain, and also at this time of year the tickets are really, really expensive, oh well.

Ok, want to hear from some of you, how are you, where are you, what is happening with you guys?

Peace and Love,
Play

Hi Jan - yes, I am on the road again - I am using up the last of my leave and thought seeing as WTE was sick last time, I would come out and see her !! And I think I am pretty easy to feed - LOL

Hi Star - yes, we are having fun - did a lot of weeding today and it was really nice out in the garden - got a lot accomplished although not as much as I would have liked !! Nice to see you posting again...

Play - thanks for your advice this evening. we did end up going to urgicare and the doc says I have a strep infection - I have never heard of a strep infection that wasn't in ones throat...... WTE says she is going to lock me in my room for the duration of my visit so nothing else can happen to me. She also cancelled the kayaking as she says I can't kayak with a swollen arm !!! I am SO sad !! The doc has given me antibiotics- YUK.

She is getting new kittens tomorrow - two of them !! 7 weeks old ! I am so looking forward to them!!

Well, not sure what we will be doing tomorrow now seeing as we won't be kayaking. WTE said she isn't letting me outside!! SIGH !!!

Oh well - need to get ready for bed I think. Back tomorrow Love and hugs,

sun XXX

OH dear Sun I hope your feeling ok with strep arm ! Im sure you find something good to do today even if it is jus t taking it easy.

Play you need to try not to work so hard I worry about you and your work so much, it is too much for you.

WTE it sounds like you and Sun are having a fun and busy time apart from suns arm. Can you make her wear protective clothing I am so glad you are both enjoying her visit, it is so cool that peeps on this htread are getting to visit and skype and get to know each other, we will have to skype sometime soon. and dont worry about it I was worried at first but sun caught me without my hair or make up done and Im find now, I can talk to her while Im in bed now

As for me my day yesteday just descended into awfullness trying to sort out this money thing on the phone. anyway I have to writ e a letter and am going to go and see my MP (Member of Parliament) about it all. But I felt terrible, I felt like smashing my head through the window or something equally stupid, obviously I wasnt going to do that but I did drink 2 cans of lager and 3/4 bottle of wine. I then had an early night and am up early this morning as I have a rubbish collection that I dont want to risk missing. I am not feeling very good right now and dont really think I have been for a while but Im still not getting pissed and Im not in bed of a day so and I do feel like Im making some kind of progress somewhere I just dont know where right now. Yesterday I didnt even manage to do my hypno cd, so I must get back onto that today.

Wu where have you gone again, please come back and post and let us try to help you if we can.

Hello to anyone esle I have spoken to

Bye for now xxx

Hi there - Space so sorry you are still having trouble with the money thing. good for you going to see your PM. I so hope that you have some resolution with him. I should imagine you are not feeling good because of all the stress that you are going through with all that. Once you get it sorted, hopefully you will begin to feel better again. Love and hugs your way......:l:l

Yes, we are having a lovely time - despite my arm - I have to admit there is no way I could have gone kayaking today. SIGH ! ONE day I will get there. the weather would have been perfect too as there is a Santa Ana come in so it would have been lovely. Anyway we went and got the two kittens that WTE is now fostering and they are just TOO cute!! We haven't introduced Charlie to them yet as they are still a bit nervous but hopefully later today - I am sure pictures will be forthcoming !!

Hi Jan - I am feeling better - my arm is going down although it still itches somewhat. I was just sorry that I was SUCH a pain to my hostess!!!! Things never seem to be straightforward with me..... remember your van in the ditch? LOL

Hallo Play - I had a great time today - went to that place in Encinitas that we were going to go to !! it was wonderful !! When we both come here next time, you shall have to come with me there......

WU, where are you?

love and hugs to all, Sun XXX

Wow! You guys are so cool! Jet setting and all. At first I thought, "Wow! Those Europeans! Do they know how cool it is that they just zip over to a whole 'nother country???" And then realized that WTE is in So Cal. Ha! But where is Sun from? It's kinda fun lurking. Feels a bit like interloping though. So Hi everybody! Hope you're well and having fun. (Bummer about the arm, AND the bee sting. sheesh.)

Had to come looking for ya' Space. I realized earlier today, while driving (!) that it's been a lot longer than 3 days, I think. Made me nervous. Shoulda known you were in good hands and havin' fun. It's a great group here. Congrats on the three days. Just keep pluggin' along, right? Super :l atcha.

Peas out peeps!

Oh Space, what a pain what you are going thru right now, the bright spot is that you are actually handling it well, a few lagers and a bit of wine but nothing over the top, YAY, just like any other person would handle such a stress. I worry about you too, and yes, my work sometimes just gets to be too much for me but I don't know how I am ever going to really be able to slow down that much, my future social security pension will be less than $900 US dollars plus about $300 dollars a month from a previous hospital job, and that won't go very far, right now I'm just still working full time when I get the chance in order to be able to take off the month for my daughters surgery, after that I will try to work less again, maybe three days a week, maybe I will just work until I fall over but you know, it will work out, my nature is to look on the bright side, disregarding depression and drinking.

Space, could you please check your regular email as I am writing there also, let me know,

Halloooooo, to everyone else, aside from Sun and WTE, where are you?

Love,
Play

How sweet fostering two more kittens, Charlie must be a very cool dog to be good with all these cats.

Ne, Im so happy that you have come to find me, and yes its way more than three days I feel guilty that I havent been around to talk to you anywhere, how are you, you are welcome to our thread anytime, I am going to Spain soon to visit with Play as well so I suppose we are a bit jet set but its not compulsory its just a couple of us very lucky ones have gone visiting.

I am confused, I drank a bottle of wine last night again, and a can of lager as well, this morning I feel all dehydrated even tho I have drank loads of water and I have a hangover headache from the wine. Do I need to go up on the topa more or do I need to use more restraint, I dont really know what to expect any more, sometimes its so easy and then sometimes its just like I drink too much. I wasnt drunk but I dont like drinking that much. I think I will go to 50am 75pm on Sunday and then stay there for a few weeks and see if that is a good fit for me, I dont think I did myself any favours by those AF days that made me feel bad without me realising it. I think I am going up every 2 weeks whereas in the book it is every week, I hope I dont have to go much higher, but then when I decided to do this I took the chance of going to where I needed didnt I. I cant remember is this what happened befor I went up the other times, did I drink a bit too much? I will have to look back and see, I cant remember.

How much longer are you out there sun, I hope you both enjoy the rest of you stay.

Good Morning everyone.

Space - I am wondering why you are drinking the wine? you usually just drink the lager..... the Topa does make things out of cans taste a bit different which is why you could have turned to wine - maybe instead of upping your dose of Topa, try just sticking with your lager? Just my thoughts anyway.... and yes, you can go up if you need to and go up when you feel you need to, not every week.

I leave to go home today. We are leaving for the airport in about an hour. It is sad to be leaving - it has been a lovely stay. WTE made me feel so welcome. The new kittens are really sweet and this morning feeling much more adventurous. Charlie gets very jealous though as he is WTE's baby and doesn't like when she talks to or makes a fuss of the kittens. He is good with them though.

Hi there Ne - good to see you here. I am a transplanted Brit living in Illinois, visiting WTE in CA. Never feel that you are interloping here - we ARE a great group and love having others join us. Nice to see you checking in on Space - she is very special to us and I am happy to see you here for her.

Well, I must go and pack. have a wonderful day everyone, Love, Sun XXX
