Keep working on those sophisticated avoidance techniques, because something seems to have slipped through the cracks.

:p :p :p
 
@Trala those packing up moments can be full of laughter and tears and a mix of the two - and the way it sounds like you and your brothers handled it would have been very cathartic.

It seems like you are dealing with the emotional side of it well - but don't forget to reach out when you are not. I'm impressed at the lessons you are taking from it and the way you have forgiven your mother. I'll be praying that you have forgiven yourself as fully.

This place (the forum) can be a place of information, entertainment, lively debate, and even a place to find true friendship and caring. It can also be incredibly toxic. I've learned to log in less frequently, to visit mostly harmless threads and venture into other threads to check on the welfare of those I care about only with my scrolling finger at the ready and selective blinkers on. I engage less but care about the people as much.

Good Moanin OT thread!!!!

I hope this post finds you all living your dream, loved up and bursting with happiness!

I am okay and ready to move forward. I have had a super busy week and created a new habit which doesn't involve waking up and logging straight into this forum, only to be instantly irritated. They say it takes a fornight to create a new habit, and I feel lucky that I have managed to create it in 9 days. Life is too short to start your day being irritated by the constant targeting and baiting from an lonely and "clique" obsessed cyber stranger.

Spent the weekend with my people farewelling Mum, and it was happy sad. One of the funniest moments, when cleaning up Mums unit, we each had a box for keepsakes, every time one of us passed my middle brothers box we would add something inappropriate, I found a broken tooth in a zip lock bag, went straight into his box, baby brother found Anusol in the bathroom - straight in his box, son found a bra in her bedroom - in his box, nephew found some KY gel (Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!), but it wasn't wasted - straight to the middle brothers box, and on it went. I found her drawer of x rated mindfucking internal hardware, but not even I am that cruel...

We spent Saturday night getting very drunk, listening to Neil Diamond looking at old photos and sharing stories. My two brothers really are great men, and seeing my son with his cousins was just lovely. It really was a perfect end to an extraordinarily sad life story.

Reality update from a few members in here whose lives have moved on from the BBB threads. Coops is loving balancing work/wife and mummyhood, Inigo has her licence so she has now taken to the open roads, she is loving her sea change and is making friends and partying, I continue to whup Shadow with online scrabble, and my favourite Mutley is still loved up and has secured an interior design internship. 2016 is still well on track, peeps, so make it great!!!!

Thank you to my friends in here, I was going to madly start @'ing, but you know who you are. Have a great day and I will pop in and check up on you all soon.

P.s. I found the bird on the round mirror in the KMart catalog! My niece had it sitting proud in her room, and she gave it to me, so I finally have it!

P.p.s Jess I need a baby update

P.p.p.s Lucas focus on the people who want you in their lives. Forget the ones who don't. Xo

P.p.p.p.s Bula Bleachy

P.p.p.p.p.s You left that ex of yours yet Hooley?

P.p.p.p.p.p.s qtkt, I felt your love when I needed it

P.p.p.p.p.p.p.s all this ps'ing isn't getting me any closer to my yoga class

:hilarious: @ putting inappropriate items in your middle brother's box every time you guys passed by.

I have no idea what it is like to lose a parent. I won't even pretend I would know what that is like but I agree with what @qtkt said that it seems like you have handled it as best as you can (you are a strong woman) and the packing up with your brothers would have been very cathartic.

It was nice to read that through all of this you and your brothers got to spend some time together again and your son got to hang with his cousins.

And yay you finally got that bird!!! :laugh:

I saw Ghost the musical last night at the Theatre Royal in Sydney. The reviews have been a little less than kind, however I thought it was well done and fun. Jemma Rix and Millsy did an absolutely wonderful job and the woman who played the Whoopi Holdberg part absolutely nailed the humour of the role.

That's too funny with your brother's box, I'm glad you were all able to have a laugh. These situations usually bring out the best in people and although it seems so wrong to describe such times as nice, it almost sounds like it was. I'm glad it was a cathartic experience.

And it looks like someone missed you! So I think your new habit is absolutely a good one.

Haha wel it is a forum dedicated to a show that ended 2 years ago, what do you expect!

Besides breaking playground equipment, not a lot really. Just normal 30 year old activities I guess.[DOUBLEPOST=1460522001][/DOUBLEPOST]Who is your avatar of?

@Lucas should Mike start training again to prevent breaking more stuff? He can send you progress shots.

haha. Well if he is breaking stuff when sitting down maybe it is a sign he should start training again? :laugh:
And yes he should send me progress shots. I am not a personal trainer but I am happy to inspect. For Mike's sake of course! :joyful:
