So how are you all feeling?

[Paula]

Well, how have you been feeling?

[Jaquaia]

Yep! How have you both been feeling?

[Paula]

I’m ok, though my arm is still bandaged up lol. How’s you?

[Suzi]

How is your arm looking? Healing?

I'm struggling with pain atm, Marc's having a blip and so things are a bit tough...

[Paula]

You’ve been through a lot as a family recently, it’s no wonder you’re both struggling. (panda)

It’s healing, I just keep catching it and making it bleed, hence the dressing.it’s going to leave 2 or 3 scars but, let’s face it, I’ve already got plenty - what’s 3 more? ;)

[Jaquaia]

I'm ok, it's one of those "meh" days

[Paula]

Day 3:

https://actionforhappiness.org/sites/default/files/styles/daily_message_convo_overlay/public/AFH_ACTION_2023_02_FEB_03.png?itok=XPsE6GUT

I made Marc a cup of tea, I'm counting that as a win for today! lol

[Paula]

I picked up some cuticle oil for Katie from my nail tech. Small act but she’d been complaining a few days ago about not having anything decent :)

[Suzi]

That's lovely!

[Suzi]

https://actionforhappiness.org/sites/default/files/styles/daily_message_convo_overlay/public/AFH_ACTION_2023_02_FEB_05.png?itok=GrHvrr3j

I have to confess, I'm not planning on getting outside much!

[Suzi]

Day 7:

https://actionforhappiness.org/sites/default/files/styles/daily_message_convo_overlay/public/AFH_ACTION_2023_02_FEB_07.png?itok=PuM08kJ7

[Paula]

Jaq - how’s wedding plans going?
Magie - are you resting?
Suzi - how’s the study going?
Pixie - how are you being kind to yourself today?

[Suzi]

Thanks for asking! Studying is going OK, I'm a bit behind on my dissertation, but apart from that I'm reasonably up to date!

How about you love?

[Paula]

You know I said about less appointments? Just had 2 more in the post lol

[Suzi]

Oh crumbs! You're going to need your own parking space soon! Or a reward card so you can get a free coffee and sticky bun or something?

[Paula]

(rofl)

[Suzi]

Day 8:

https://actionforhappiness.org/sites/default/files/styles/daily_message_convo_overlay/public/AFH_ACTION_2023_02_FEB_08.png?itok=UZuMRZgh

[Jaquaia]

Jaq - how’s wedding plans going?
Magie - are you resting?
Suzi - how’s the study going?
Pixie - how are you being kind to yourself today?

It's going ok I think, apart from make up...


Well since I really trust you lot...

Today I'm feeling shattered but proud. Anxiety hangover but I got past the panic attack and still managed to nail my theory test AND drive in a busier, completely new area and at a decent speed so I wasn't massively holding up traffic, plus do my first stop sign! So go me!

[Suzi]

Go you indeed!!!

I trust you all too! I'm feeling shattered, need to try to start tidying the house, it's really bugging me, but long covid is still kicking my arse. Bit by bit today I think, with pacing in the middle.

[Paula]

Exhausted - which seems the order of the day. But I’m wondering if my constant fatigue is tied up with the suggestion from my pain Co sultans that I’m menopausal?

[Suzi]

That may make sense...

[Suzi]

Day 9:

https://actionforhappiness.org/sites/default/files/styles/daily_message_convo_overlay/public/AFH_ACTION_2023_02_FEB_09.png?itok=KvaqwHfb

I want to thank you all - you've all allowed me to have a space I'm able to be myself and not feel judged, just supported. Thank you.

[Allalone]

I would like to thank you all for the support you’ve given me over the last 4 years. Not sure where I’d be without it. Huge thanks.xx

[Paula]

Suzi, I’m not sure I’ve ever said this, but I’m so grateful for you trusting me with your ‘baby’. It’s a real honour :)

[Strugglingmum]

Thank you Suzi for creating a safe place, and putting together an awesome team. I think you know that I wouldn't be here without the support you give me

[Suzi]

And you've all made me cry... I am so lucky to have you all in my life.

[Suzi]

*Beams* Obviously I'm smiling at you all! :)

[Paula]

I have to plaster a smile on my face for work, so hope it cheered people up ;)

[Suzi]

I've seen you smile, it will have radiated around and cheered everyone up!

Day 14:

https://actionforhappiness.org/sites/default/files/styles/daily_message_convo_overlay/public/AFH_ACTION_2023_02_FEB_14.png?itok=7P6Vtgjw

I'd like to tell you all that you are loved. I'm so grateful for having you in my life. Never feel that no one has faith in you, or that you are alone. You aren't.

[Paula]

I want to tell Magie that I think she’s one of the gentlest, kindest women I’ve ever known. You are a special soul and everyone should have a Magie in their lives

[Suzi]

This is a brilliant one!

Mine:

Paula, Jaq and Liz - for always keeping me grounded, for making me see things in a different way, for being my constant support and making me feel loved and validated. Thank you for working with me and giving up so many hours to create such a lovely, non judgemental and safe space
