    ppl dont always need advice. sometimes all they rly need is a hand to hold. an ear to listen. and a heart to understand them. 🧸

    Good morning all,

    The storm is picking up here, we're not even in an amber zone but it's pretty strong and the doggo is bricking it. Every time he hears wind he jumps off the couch bless him. So trying to keep him calm .. and myself calm, I hate storms because of the time we lost power for 26 hours. So far so good with the power. My family are travelling back today and I did everything I could to persuade them to delay it for one day but they ignored me because it's not bad where they are, think they're gonna get a shock when they get up here

    @eylah I just had airfryer chicken dippers and potato waffles again, boring I know but I didn’t want to be spending my afternoon washing dishes again :joy: so just the airfryer zones to clean.

    Theo is ok it’s just a case of reassuring him that it’s just wind and it can’t get in the house and it can’t hurt him.

    Thank you @eylah but it's fine. If you want to talk I'm here.
  • independent_independent_ Community Connector Posts: 9,873 Supreme Poster
    @eylah it’s a good way to think, minimise washing up! Me and my sister made sausage casserole for dinner though, it was amazing!!! Lots of washing up with that though so I’ve done that now just letting it dry off a bit then putting it away so I can show my parents a nice clean kitchen when they get back.

    The wind has calmed down a lot now so theo is calmer now, bless him. Thank you for the hugs <3 hugs to you too

    I probably won’t be in the chat tonight, I’m waiting for them to come back and I need to be down there armed with drinks and snacks for when they get in. Hope you guys find it helpful.

    Thank you @Animalloverb Im just getting these "Ill never get a job thoughts" sometimes

    @Redemption
    That's okay, I understand. I know how much your struggling at the moment with job hunting.
    I know you have been given the opportunity to go onto another course that may help you get a job.

    Don't beat yourself up about it mate, you will get there. Just the journey there is different for everyone.
