I can’t cope

[tyme]

I had a pretty good day today @Captain24 . Didn't start off the best, but it looks like it will end well 🙂 I guess it's what I make out of it.

I've learnt to embrace each challenge as an opportunity and room for growth.

I hope today wasn't too difficult for you,

I like the way you look at things @tyme 

I’m sorry your day didn’t start well but I’m glad that it ending well. 

I have so so much to learn and hope I can change. 

I am trying to focus on the positives there was a beautiful sunset! I see lots of sunsets and sunrises. That’s a good part of my job. 

I also handled a very challenging situation with calm.

I had smoke bellowing out of my work vehicle today and instead of instant panic I checked the tyres and it wasn’t coming from them but then I could see the ground covered in coolant. It was only steam! But a lot of it. I calmly sorted it all out. Then the adrenaline hit. When it wore off I then went down. But I am proud of the way I handled it. 

I completed the day even after desperately wanting to give in. 

While I’m not feeling good I’m not feeling as bad as I have been. Progress!! Lol

Woohoo @Captain24 ,

As I always say, "Strive for progress, not perfection".

Sounds like as least you know more about vehicles than most people!

[Captain24]

Haha nah @tyme that’s my limit of vehicle  knowledge! 

I need to be patient and understand it’s going to take time. Patience is not one of my strong points. This is a very steep learning curve.

Hey @Captain24 ,

Patience isn't my strong point either! I'm work in progress when it comes to patience.

Just to let you know, I'm going to wrap up soon, so I'm so sorry I can't hang around for too long tonight.

Have you had dinner?

All good @tyme. Thanks for the chat. It helps lessen the darkness in my nights. I do really appreciate it. 

Nah no dinner. I just couldn’t be bothered. I’m really failing at my homework. Lol

I hope you had something good. 

[tyme]

Actually, I won't really be on much for the next few days. 

We can share a cuppa when I see you next, along with @Bow @Shaz51 and others 🙂 Share a cuppa? 

@Captain24 when I read your post "I hope you had something good"... it made me think of what I ate today. It's taken me 5 minutes to walk back through my day to realise I forgot to have dinner! I had lunch at about 2:30pm. Ooopsss. So no dinner makes the two of us (for tonight).

I certainly know how it feels to be too tired to eat. But at least it's a happy tired. That's all that matters.

[Captain24]

Enjoy your weekend @tyme. I hope you have something awesome planned.

Hi @Captain24  it’s good to see how well you are interacting on the forums.

My son cooked dinner here tonight so I’ve been a bit spoilt.

[Captain24]

Thanks @Eve7. I don’t really have anyone in my life that I can talk to with out judgement and on here it’s easier and people don’t have ‘listen’ if they don’t want to. I can just get it out.

Its always good when someone else cooks for you. Sounds like you have a lovely sun.
