Dear Grandy
Thanks so much for your post to my thread this afternoon. After no activity there for over a day, it turns out that we both posted at almost exactly the same time. Though yours snuck in ahead of mine by mere seconds. As I'm not able to post consecutively, I will address any addl bits next time someone replies.
Im really disappointed for you Grandy that you need to adapt to a new MHN. I did think your previous one had your best interests in mind and understood you well. I think all you can do is go into this new MHN relationship with an open and optomistic mind. Who knows? This new one could be an improvement.
You have a big week ahead of you, so please know that I will be around for you. I accept what you said on my thread, that you get lonely and that these forums represent your only real interaction with others. Except for your Tuesday work of course.
Anyway .. I'm here for you, as you always are for me and many others.
Amanda 💕

Hello dear Grandy,
I couldn't help but smile to your use of the term ..meh...! I love how you write Grandy, always so natural and from the heart. I know it's because being here is your only conversation so it does come from your heart. I had an idea there were more factors relating to your decision making. Thank you for sharing your true feelings lovely.
Always sitting with you in spirit my good friend.
I hope your hip and leg are ok. Sending you caring thoughts and warm hugs.
Sleep well dear Grandy.
❤❤🤗🤗😴😴.

Hi gorgeous Grandy (waves to all your lovely friends),
I feel your sadness for not being able to drive to your husband’s resting place or to see your eldest son. I know you love very deeply, and you must miss your son terribly.
I like your plan to try calling and texting. I really hope he picks up or answers his text. I wonder if you might also like consider sending him a card or letter...just a gentle idea but up to you of course....
I think you have come a long way...it must have been (still be) such an emotional transition from constantly being told what to do in the past to suddenly having to making your own decisions now. I would think that must be overwhelming and confusing at times...
But you seem to be learning, taking it all in your stride and gradually taking steps forward...things like putting your foot down against beasty, choosing to reach out to people on the forums, deciding to bake cakes because you enjoy baking, etc, etc.
Slowly but surely, you’re on your way, dear Grandy...we are all here lovingly and gentle cheering you on.
Love, comfort and hugs...
Peppy xoxo

Grandy, and waves to everyone,
Just a quick hello to say while I do t post much here, I do read and keep up to date.
I am always interested in following you and seeing how far you have come since your first posts.
you have a wonderful team of support people on this thread and it is wonderful the way you all help each other.
I admire how much you help other people on the forum with your kind words.
I can understand how you will miss your mhn and how hard it is trust a new person and sometimes it feels,like reinventing the wheel when you have to go back explain everything all over again.
I am sure the man was given orders to move on and maybe there are rules about contacting past clients , so that another person does that. hopefully in time you will build trust with the new mhn.
just letting you know I am reading your posts and thinking of you.You write from the heart and your words touch people,
sending kind thoughts to everyone on this thread past and present.
Quirky

Hey beautiful Grandy 🤗
Just popping in to see how you are which no good cause of those annoying cicadas poor thing.
Remember sweety your way stronger than beasty and we know not to listen to IT don't we. We need to be thinking of the good things.
I left Destiny and Eternity to play with Ebony and Kya they all get on SO well they're so cute.
I'm cooking tea tonight and thought we could pop on the veranda and look at our ✨🤝 under Blanky and cause you're so sweet I baked a cinnamon caje for you.
Lot's of love and care dear friend 🌜💑💜🐶🐕😻😸🌛

Hello Amanda, Quirky, Pepper and all,
Amanda..The dissapointment did feel like abandonment, but you and others here have made me to understand that it isn’t her choice where she is told to work, and that she might not be allowed to contact me, now she’s not my mhn..Thank you for always being here for me, especially since you’re having so very much to deal with...I appreciate you so much and I’m pleased we have met and became friends....You are important in my life Amanda....
Quirky, It’s always a really good pleasure to see you here you helped me so much when I first started on here, on my other thread, I will always be so very grateful for your beautiful care, help and support, thank you so very much...
Tomorrow is coming too quickly for me, I can only try to talk as much as I can, with new people I clam up, and my words just seem to not make much sense at all..I can’t concerntrate on what they say and seem to forget things very easily and I’m just so much on edge..I have a job provider long appointment before work, then I’m supposed to be in the shop, then a new mhn, I hope it’s not as stressful as it sounds....
Peppy...It’s just to hard to drive down and wish hubby some birthday wishes, then my elders son the day after, even if I did go down, my son is still not talking to me, I couldn’t go and see him, It would break me totally if I saw him and had to keep my distance...so it’s best I stay here, and phone or message my son my birthday wishes and I think I will send him a card, thank you for that suggestion...
It has been very hard to know what to do, but I’m getting their now, I still find it hard to do things I have been forbidden to do all my life..Just simple everyday things I had to do a certain way or I was in trouble, trying to change and do things the way I want, sounds easy but can at times put fear into me...Sound so silly but it’s just so hard to do....
Hello Deebi and Lee, Thank you both for your posts...I will bbl...
Love and hugs to all...💜🤗.
Grandy....

Hello Deebi, Lee and all,
Lee....I’m pleased I made you smile, I hope you are still doing good. Thank you very much for thinking of me and sending such a beautiful post to me through your lunch break...I hope you had a nice lunch break Lee and you managed to get some sun to absorb into your skin.... it’s so windy here again today and outside really isn’t an option, having open paddocks in front of me and nothing to break the wind, it can get really strong, but also the summer nights are usually cooled of by the gentle breeze that wouldn’t be tgerevif there were houses..Its like having to put up with the bad....so I can enjoy the good....I hope you are still feeling good Lovely Lee, because you deserve to so much....🌹💜🕊🤗🌺.
Deebi....I wasn’t going to but I did, to stop thinking of tomorrow, I went to 🎯 darts...First half I let everyone down I couldn’t win a game...Geez..if the dart board took up the entire wall well then maybe I might have hit something at least..😂 ..The uppities decided it would be best if I just done the scoring for second half..😢...Thy soon took me off scoring because I couldn’t concerntrate and kept making mistakes😁...so I went home..
Oh what else can go wrong...When I got home Ebony,Kya,Destiny and Eternity must have gotten into the bathroom, well toilet paper covered my entire loungroom and kitchen......I was hmmmmm when I first saw it then I burst into uncontrollable laughter, how can I get angry with them, when they all just sit here looking at me with their big gorgeous innocent eyes...
Yummy Deeb...What a beautiful thought for tonight, I so much want you to cook tea..and have our cinnamon cake on the veranda with a glass (or 2 or maybe 3) of tia Maria or/and kahula...sounds perfect dear friend...🤝&🌟💫.Thank you.💜.. L🦄vE Y👩❤️💋👩u...
Oh with the help of pain meds my bursitis has gone to sleep...
Sending love and hugs, 💜🤗....😙..
👩❤️💋👩Grandy👼🦄..
