Trauma Support Community Check-in for Thursday October 29 2020
Hey you wonderful people :) How are you all doing? This is an official - unofficial check in. My first actually :) official or unofficial - So I’m a little nervous.
Where I live the weather has started to turn colder - so what better way to warm up than a campfire? They’re usually a nice way to relax and unwind. A place where friends can gather and enjoy each other’s company and talk about whatever comes up.
Hopefully since you’ve all seen me around here and there - you’ll all feel comfortable enough to stop in. Pull up a chair or a log and feel free to share whatever is on your beautiful minds. If you’d rather not talk - that’s ok too. We can sit quietly and just enjoy the quiet together.
Please remember - you’re not alone. There are many people that you can reach out to - no one has to go through it alone.
Be gentle with yourselves and your thoughts.

Hiya soul, congrats on the first check in, pawsome job!.
Its starting to turn cold here to, we've had snow already, its actually a record for my town.
I love a campfire! I'd love to sit and chat with you and the amazing people at cups Around a campfire.
Grat job! Hang tough stay pawsome ur friend 🔥
@Fireskye13 Hey it's nice to see you :)
Thank you :) I thought yours was pawsome too!
We could get some snow early tomorrow morning. I can't believe that we've reached the end of October!
I'd like to do that as well. I think it would be a really nice way to spend sometime. Gathered around a campfire just talking. Maybe roasting some marshmellows amd hot dogs
Thank you Skye :) Thank you for joining me here. I hope you take good care of yourself
@mytwistedsoul
A campfire sounds good right now. My daughter and I went on a trip today. It was cold and raining. We still had a good time though. Our dog is doing well after his surgery. We are waiting to hear more about the cancerous spot they removed. I've been doing ok. I still wish I could afford to see my therapist more. Its been over 2 months since I last talked with her. I have been isolating more lately. If it wasn't for my daughter I'm not sure what I would do. Anyway I guess I'll sit here and enjoy the warmth of the campfire and maybe spend some time with people who understand.
@RedHawk6547 Hey it's nice to see you :)
I'm glad you and your daughter still had a nice trip even though it was cold and rainy. It was like that here today too
Its really great to hear that your dog is doing good after the surgery. I hope that any news or information you get about the spot that was removed is good news and that they got it all. I hope you'll keep us posted on his recovery
I'm glad you're doing ok - I'm sorry you haven't been able to see your therapist for so long. That would be really hard. Are there any resources where you live that could maybe offer some assistance?
The isolation is hard isn't it? I'm glad you have your daughter to help with that. We're allways here for you too. Whether you need a shoulder or an ear :) Even if it's just to have someone sit quietly with you. It's an open offer for whenever you need it - ok?
Thank you so much for joining me today. Please take care of yourself
Great first post
Hello everyone our power has been out since 7am
they say it may be Sunday before they get it on
@scarletPear1945 Hey it's nice to see you :)
I hope it doesn't take as long as they say to get you back up and running with your electric. Do you have any back up source to use? Oh wow - I just realized if you have a freezer and everything in the fridge that needs the cold storage - what a mess! I really hope it doesn't take them until Sunday. That would be really frustrating. I hope it isn't too hot or cold where you live.
Thank you for joining me here - take good care of yourself - you'll be in my thoughts
Hi, I am good this morning. Still need to read back and catch up on Posts, checked in first since I am pressed for time and we need to run out. May take me and my Husband longer to do Errands since it snowed last night.
@Breezy2013 Hey :) Thank you for checking back in. It's nice to see you today. :)
I'm glad to hear that you're doing good today.
There's never any time limit or even a requirement to the posts. You can take your time and get to them when ever is good for you :) There is never any pressure.
Oh my, snow! There's a dirty word :) I hope that you and your husband have a safe trip out and about while you run your errands.
Back from running Errands and feeding the Horses. The Moon was shining over the Mountains behind the Pasture and Barn and it was beautiful. Coyotes were out and howling, though, we could hear them back on the Mountain. Back and happy about it, it is 34 Degrees out there tonight. The horses were glad to get their grain the cold makes them hungry. Dont think we are going out again, we are home for the night, now.
@Breezy2013 Your description sounds beautiful. With the moon shining over the mountain and the cry of the coyote. They have an eerie lonesome cry dont they?
It's so hard to believe we're so close to winter but when the temps start to hit the thirties - it kind of hard to deny. I hope running your errands went well and that you and your husband were able to enjoy a nice evening at home :)
I hope you have a wonderful weekend - take care :)
The Errands last night went well. It got down in the 20's last night. I havent been awake very long. Just let out my Hens, got eggs and checked their water and fed them. Fed Breezy, my Grey Parrot, and I had coffee and Breakfast. I guess I am doing pretty okay. I was just a bit overwhelmed when I first woke up, but it passed fast. Felt that way when I woke up yesterday for a bit as well. Think I will take the hint my mental state is trying to give me and rstart my Light Therapy today. It is certainly late enough in the year to do so.
