Let's try and show a bit of sensitivity though please @Chris75_, I know what you're trying to say, but poor Catherine has only just got Fifi's ashes back.

But (and this is in no way linked to anyone's previous comments,) we do have the new grumbling discussion, for when you just need to have a good moan about things. It's actually very therapeutic.
Just trying to promote that discussion a bit more. 😁2 -
i really would like a new leg and back… a longer pair of legs would be great.. i am always in pain… i had an ok day today.. it was not bad…i managed my anxiety etc. i also managed to avoid the rush hour etc.. and now at home. tomorrow will be another day and i hope i will not be in pain.. if weather is good i will be out. if it is not i will be staying at home. hope you all have a nice afternoon evening and night.

I'm so sorry for your pain Catherine. I hope you will feel able to come on here and express how you feel; I have enormous empathy for you, as will very many others.
Fifi was by your side for so many years it will take time to grieve and mourn her, she was clearly a very much-loved family member. And you're not 'grumbling' - very different to expressing your deep sadness and grief and I hope you will feel supported on here as you so rightly deserve to be.
Sadly, this happens to be 'how your day is going' for now and it's ok for you to express and share that here, whether it's over weeks, months or years as everyone's bereavement, and how we each experience grief, is different. This is your space as much as it is anyone else's - please remember that.
I spoke to Blue Cross who offer bereavement support when I lost two in a week, they were an amazing source of support. I think they're open 7 days a week from 0830 to 2030 if it might help you to talk to somebody too.
It's such early days yet but you will have days when you smile again, laugh again and, eventually, where your memories of Fifi will be recalled always with deep fondness and love for her, and your pain will lessen.
Sending hugs to you xx

I'm attaching a little article for you, published by Bel Mooney in the Mail today; I'm not suggesting what you should do, only do whatever feels right for you in your own time.
I know exactly what you mean about her ashes. My three that passed I took each on the same day they'd passed, to the pet crematorium, waited and brought them back in their casket the same day. It was emotionally distressing but the lady did a little, lovely service for them. Once you have her ashes home, Fifi is home. Yes, in a different form, that none of us would want, but she's back with you and little Pixie. Mine are all on my piano surrounded by little angels and suchlike. I believe they are with us in spirit anyway, all of the time🫂 xxx

Very valid points, I never considered exactly someone's state of mind when deciding where to post but that's so true; mine was atrocious when I lost my dogs, very fragile 😪.
Some of my days can be good, bad, boring - all in the same day 🙄 so I'll often just not bother posting then.
I hope you have a lovely holiday and rest and that the weather improves.
Thank you so much for asking @Catherine21 my health is stable again thankfully, was able to just about swerve the hospital last week!
It's a lovely idea to get a cross for Fifi in your garden. I'm sorry you were so upset when out and about, look after yourself and be kind to yourself. Grief isn't 'neat and tidy' and can catch us unawares too xx

I haven't felt able to post for a few days. I have read everyone's posts though. I just want to pass my love and prayers to all of you who have been struggling over these past days.
I like to here about everyone's day on here be it funny, sad, good or bad. We all have different ways in expressing our feeling's and your day and how it's going should be shared how you want it to be. I think it's precious being able to share to a post, where you will hopefully find empathy, understanding, help, advice and supportive words. We share our local weather reports, our favourite pictures or funny stories and our memories, difficulties, worries, happiness or sadness. Keep feeling able to share, whatever your day has been for you.❤️

Hi @Bluebell21. I can understand your view on the number of different discussions. Please be assured we aren’t trying to force people to post in certain places depending on the type of day they’re having and would never mean to be judgemental. We want to offer options for people to post in different places. Sometimes we may move posts to their own discussion if they are derailing the conversation. This gives the poster their own space and allows both conversations to continue without becoming confusing.
We’ll definitely take on board what you’ve said.

Sorry to hear you've been struggling @Elvisdog. Are you feeling any better today? Things have been tough for some people recently and we want them to receive support- that's what we're all here for 😊

I'm sorry you're in pain @Amberpearl. I have osteoarthritis and GTPS worse in my right hip and outer ankles 😬. Have you got any pain relief, I know you're waiting for an xray.
Did you get rid of your mice? Did they just go of their own accord? The council came to fill in a hole in my concrete outside, said they think it's a rat (think they were just being 'sympathetic' saying 'A rat' , I don't think they'd just come one by one 😬, it's gross. My yorkie had been peering for weeks down the cracks between paving stones sometimes screeching. I thought it was ants as I'd seen a couple.

Sorry can you delete the post that I post by mistake and meant going a lot on my own being anxious all the time and dealing with emotions guilt trips and gaslighting to . Trying to control when my emotions are out of control. Both of my parents did the same thing . Still very tired. In okay at moment and I just want to live at home but I feel trapped. I can't even say anything that upset me when comes to my mum will get angry at me and used to guit me . I already done trying to fix it.
