@Dreamy I'm glad you're safe. That's the best we can offer right now, right? I'm hanging in there with you. Time for a Dreamy plant methinks. What sort of plants do you like? xo ... View more

@Dreamy I'm okay, still trying to find my place in this world. How is your week treating you? ... View more

@Jynx YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!! You're back!! I hope you had a lovely break my darling Jynxy. I missed you! But you deserved a break, after having to deal with the crazies (ie me :-D) Mucho hugs  ... View more

@Bunniekins I'm a new Linkin Park fan, only really started listening to them a couple of years ago when a friend introduced me to them.    This is one of my favourite shorts -   https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1-dd4maHWVU ... View more

@Realness @DownMoreThanUp @heartathome @AlwaysMyself thank you all for your posts. It is so refreshing to read posts about our faith. While I understand some people need to talk about their problems and this is what Sane is for, it's also nice to have a space where there is positivity, for all talk about God is positive in my heart. I just did a search for Bible verses and this one came up first. For me particularly it's appropriate while I navigate this new year.   ... View more

@SmilingGecko thanks lovely. Although I don't follow the same path as you, I am always interested in the different methods you use, especially when you find something that works well for you  ... View more

@Zoe7 It's that time of year lol! We spend weeks either eagerly anticipating or dreading the Festive Season and then in the blink of an eye it's over. Happy New Year!  ... View more

@TAB when I bought my last car I was talked into getting paint protection and thought after that I was a sucker. Except it was a good call as when I lived in Broome I got bat poo on the car and that stuff eats through metal! The protection coat on the duco was crazed but the paint was fine. I think I got paint protection again on Paris but aside from bird crap on the bonnet she is relatively clean from stuff like that. I just want to be able to park her undercover now that she's getting older. I know that the previous owners of my house never got council approval for the spa as I have never had it inspected and the council has never reached out to tell me my fencing wasn't up to standard. My best friend who lives in the same council has a pool that is more like a sludgy pond these days still has yearly inspections. I've no idea what to do regarding carport so I will have to leave it up to an expert...as soon as you say "expert" I swear it adds extra $$$ to the bill. ... View more

@GezzaP you're probably in the land of nod now! Hope you had a decent day and that you get to sleep well. It was a lot cooler here in the 'Vegas but very humid. I haven't done much at all today aside from watering. As I used to say to my dad, NTR - nothing to report. Take care ... View more

@PeppyPatti no, I don't think you are lazy. I used to beat myself up for being lazy but it's not laziness, it's a part of mental health issues. And besides, I live in a house of clutter, I struggle to keep everything tidy so it might be the other way around. I once asked about swapping email addresses and was told it wasn't possible due to privacy, but also the ramifications it could have on Sane as an organisation if they allowed it and something bad happened to forum members. It's very frustrating I know but I completely understand why.  Maybe if we could sign a disclaimer absolving Sane of any wrongdoing etc it might be okay.  Like now that @Glisten isn't around it would be nice if we were able to send her a message letting her know we miss her, still love her and are thinking of her. I don't know what I'd do if I lost you and several others here in Saneland.   ... View more

@TAB I'm with @StuF! If you can get a carport do it! Poor Paris has been parked outside the past 3 years and although she is white and has paint protection one of the first things I want to do if I am still getting an inheritance is to build an additional carport next to the existing one which is full of furniture and stuff that doesn't fit in my house.  SA follows WA with the weather, we've had several days of 38+ and my lemon tree in particular was looking very sad. I am hoping that the daisies and fuschia will survive too. Hope you're going well, I haven't spoken to you much since last year! ... View more

@PeppyPatti I am having a similar issue with who I am allowed to tell my dad has died. I think his sister has a right to know but I'm being told not to tell her.  If it is online then would anyone know if your hubby was viewing the service? ... View more

@Chasingsunsets yes his name was Sam. Unfortunately he escaped from his cage and disappeared.  I prefer to think that he is off having fun rather than the opposite. I love our wild birds. They are so colourful, even though they can be annoyingly loud!     ... View more

@Cuddlebear oh darling, I am so sorry you are having such a tough time. Thank you for tagging me, I really do care about how you are going. It is hard when you don't have any support, I can relate to that. Not having many friends or family members that I am close to makes it hard to cope. Just getting up each day is a challenge for you, I know. I can give lots of advice that I don't follow myself, but I know that isn't helpful. I am usually around so if you want to chat just hit me up. I am home pretty much all the time. The only thing is the time difference as I am in WA. Not sure where you are gorgeous, if you told me my shocking memory has forgotten. Big hugs, I am happy to sit quietly with you xoxo ... View more

@Appleblossom it sure is good to be able to complain and laugh at complaining!   My whine for the day is not knowing how to successfully put a screen protector on my new tablet without getting air bubbles in it!   ... View more

@GezzaP does your health insurance not cover a clean? Mine allows me a free clean a year - considering how much I pay each month I should get more lol! So glad to hear you got to keep your toofs.   ... View more

@PeppyPatti I reckon one day I'll be in Subi [edited by moderator] and I'll see you and Peanut. We'll run to each other and hug, laughing and saying FINALLY! You are such an important part of my life these days, I think of you every day I water your plants - you have 2 - and I also remember you in my prayers.  If I get another Betta fish I might have to name it after you! ...

@SmilingGecko aww thank you sweetheart! You don't know (actually you probably do) how special it makes me feel to hear you say that. I hope your week treats you well   ... View more

@DownMoreThanUp this is the song that introduced me too! I agree, it IS the best. My goal for each day is to wake up praising God, something I used to do but have become overwhelmed and not done it. So it's time to thank God for what He hasn't given me,more than what He has if that makes sense.  Happy Monday my dear brother, you are a true blessing and I know God is proud of your commitment to Him. ...
