While you are having fun this weekend remember those who are struggling or on their own especially if they are your friends 
Something as simple as a text could help them

    Totally agree @marybottomley
    A text or a phone call can make a big difference to some people. Me too actually. 🙂

    True, I'm not doing anything for jubilee, just going to be norm for me. So I'll be about here from time to time.  I don't drink so would be a bore at a party anyway.

    Can we please stop thinking about ourselves and think about our friends and family who are struggling 
    also think what you can do to help them and let them know you are there for them

    Sorry @marybottomley I was trying to help others with my comment by pointing out everyone has something to contribute 

    Was in no way meant to be about myself sorry if you misinterpreted my comment

    Don't worry about being grumpy @marybottomley we all use the site for different ways to help us get through our days and struggles.
    I agree with supporting all people we know on line and in our personal life.

    I'm sorry your husband is in hospital and you are struggling isn't this thinking about yourself and not others? 

    Many people are not fortunate to have a husband any longer due to separation or loss so on that basis you are fortunate 

    Being grumpy with others is also thinking of yourself and not others 

    No further comment apart from I wish your husband a speedy recovery

    This thread/chat is reminding me of something i have seen - you should be kind to all people as we do not know what they are feeling inside or what they have going on in their own house/family etc
