Hello @Sophia1 , @Former-Member , @Emelia8 , @Anastasia , @Appleblossom
Not to exclude others, but you are people for whom I recently reflected on having a special fondness. Obviously, we see each other in various ways. It would be intriguing to have the opportunity to meet in person and see how close or distant are our impressions of each other.
However, as it is, I enjoy the companionship that we share, to the extent that we can in this format.
Short note
With My Very Best Wishes

You are always so kind and caring @Sophia1
Good to hear you’re accepting yourself as you are. Take care of yourself. I’m short on words again. Not feeling well today. 💖🌸🌺🌷

Always nice to hear from you @HenryX
Short note is good. 😀
Mine are always short.
It would be interesting to meet in person. It would be lovely to meet others as well. But unfortunately that will never happen.
Raining again today, not that I mind. Will be a quiet day today. Not feeling great. Hoping your day goes well. 😊🌻🌼
@Sophia1 I will write more another time, when I’m feeling better. 🤗

Hey @Former-Member Always good to see you around, though we have not had big "chats".
@Emelia8 Fingers crossed you get what you need.
Hugs.
Now having posted about hairdressers, I am confronted with idea I should "present" myself for gigs with a small local band. So confusing. Put it on the back burner. Mostly I has glad to be a teacher, or a leader, or lost in choral crowd, but not been an entertainer. Anyway if it is for good causes, as this project could be, it can be a new challenge for me. Get my "professional" "appearance' act together. We will see....It might be best for my son that I am less available and he sees me busy engaged with worthwhile things. This week we played some lovely music together. So proud of him. That can still be done whenever he asks, within reason. I will always have time for that kind of thing.

@HenryX Yes I have affection for you and @Emelia8 and @Sophia1
For a while I was often hoping behind the scenes that I would eventually "meet" the people who I had connected with on here. As time has gone on, and people come and go, I am more accepting that it may never happen.
This year I will be busier with different projects, so will probably limit time on the forums. I think I have given it a lot of time, and it will be close to my heart and mind, regardless of how much I read or post here. I put an application for school, and there are other music and sustainability possibilities in the offing ...

@NatureLover @Eve7 @Bow @RedHorse @Adge @HenryX @Oaktree @Zoe7 @Exoplanet
@Jynx @Daisydreamer (thank you for your kind words)
@Jynxstill have not had time to get to meme or whatever it is called thread..
so many more my brain hurts and will not let the names flow.
If I have left you off it is not intentional please
I am only uptodate with Emelia at present
Please forgive me.
I am of no use to anybody on here at the moment anyway.
I am taking further time away
Son hospitalised again in acute services...
Am having to basically advocate for him with every single being whom he encounters.
He is angry with me.
Everything is topsy turvy...painful...blech as those of you who have been down this track personally or supporting someone know..
So huge hugs to each and one even bigger than big group bear hug..
hold on tight....feel it...remember it..
Sophia the Lion is roaring
❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎

Many faces of a

Gentle best wishes for your suffering son and you. Loving and advocating through a wall of anger is a hard road.
Love Apple
