Thanks!

This week, so far has been trying not least with the legendary Grumps dark rages writ large that you struggle to escape and the sheer lack of understanding of both how that leaves you when it comes to your emotional welfare and lack of true recognition to what you bring.

Without it things would get very messy and not just physically with things unattended to  either so sometimes this shows on certain forums like FA rather than other places where they think you should just be a "good time gurl".

I'd like to this opportunity to thank everyone for your concern and how they have left me feeling, be they comments in chat and the like.

Balancing little needs and big responsibilities even if the extent given no one else in family does much is a challenge and I suspect there are others in similar situations. 

I'm slowly de-stressing and beginning to think more around how get to where I feel most comfortable and resolving some longstanding issues that compound if not of themselves create them.

I am aware a higher proportion of posts in this blog have been more around other topics of late which is fine as that is me and I don't have any issues owning up to that side but there have been others of which this is one.

Thanks again,
Jo

Thanks

Sometimes you heave to go backwards to go forward in being the best you you can wither or not it's really more like last week and being retaught  your behaviour and standards or it's really about finding who you really are after years of people pleasing.

People tried to push me down a level of presenting that had others assume I was a fully mature young lady when in reality my head was hardly just in its teens and my interests while sometimes crossing over were coming more from that of a young child- a girl who still badly needed guidance and the space to play.

I had less need for lifestyle magazines never mind political publications and the like and really rather more for comics with short stories, jokes and playthings like dollies to be encouraged to get involved when we had visits leaving the real grown ups to have their own conversations.

I'd like to this opportunity to thank everyone at GT,G.I,  IK,DDlg and FA for your concern following recent events and how they have left me feeling, be they comments in chat, on posts or face to face.

I was  pleasantly surprised to read one blog entry that addressed that topic of balancing your little and big lives an individual was facing that had a direct quote from  me upon my return after a few days so thanks Jake for that.
