That really is nice of you. I have only been able to find ONE and only ONE friend with...'listening ears' here. All the rest of the people I know only give useless lectures, thinking they're FREUDs!Its not easy, and everyones situation is different.
If anyone needs to talk I always have a ear open to talk. Just message me!
Good evening Lyn. So...you can't figure out who I meant. Fair enough-I'll give you a few hints and you guess, OK?Good day Gillian can't think who you're talking about! Sorry I wasn't here earlier to wish you a good day too- had a busy day commanding the troops ,,,er sorry - that should be teaching my little darlings!
Hope you have had a lovely day though
Good evening Lyn. So...you can't figure out who I meant. Fair enough-I'll give you a few hints and you guess, OK?
-A female
-Her first name begins with the letter L
-She has a cute little tortoise
-She's an active member at Tortoise Forum
-She's a teacher
-She's a very sweet person
Now do you know who I meant by 'DER FUHRER?' Hope so!
As for me, or rather my day, well it wasn't the best. I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning.
Sorry went outside to build an enclosure. I'm hot. How are you?Hi, Heather !
How are you today?
Now which one of the six did you NOT apply to yourself? I wonder..hmmm. I meant what I said, no need to thank me, Lyn.Well I definitely match 5/6 of the above so i'm guessing it could be me then Thank you for your kind words!
Sorry you have to visit the docs tomorrow Gillian I hope all is OK and you have better days after it.
I had to visit my docs last week for a tetanus jab after being bitten - - - by a pupil!
An occupational hazard!
Also hot.Sorry went outside to build an enclosure. I'm hot. How are you?
I love it. Believe it or not it rained here today!Also hot.
Which is good.
I like hot.
Gillian, good luck tomorrow.Now which one of the six did you NOT apply to yourself? I wonder..hmmm. I meant what I said, no need to thank me, Lyn.
Am going to see the doctor for sleep that's been giving me so much trouble lately. As I think you know, I walk a lot, tire myself out but when I go to bed-no matter what time-I keep tossing and turning in bed, with all sorts of NEGATIVE thoughts racing through my mind. Two things I do know: l am very lonley here PLUS I'm an extremely sensitive person. (So sorry Lyn, I didn't mean to disturb you).
Did you really get bitten by a pupil? Why, if I may ask?
Tidgy reciprocates to Oli.Good evening Adam. How are you all? And how's Tidgy? Oli sends her a BIG KISS, nothing to you, nothing to Wifey.
Thanks Adam. Not sleeping is nerve-wrecking believe me.Gillian, good luck tomorrow.
Not sleeping is horrible.
My advice is to sleep right on the very edge of the bed.
You'll soon drop off.
What's up with Wifey? Don't tell me she wants a kiss from OLI-be it my tort or OLI KAHN!Tidgy reciprocates to Oli.
But not to you.
Wifey's sad now.
Yeah, she wants Oli to say hi.What's up with Wifey? Don't tell me she wants a kiss from OLI-be it my tort or OLI KAHN!
I do.Thanks Adam. Not sleeping is nerve-wrecking believe me.

Lyn, thanks so much your kindness and understanding. I have tried walking, reading books, watching TV, all of which doctors think bring sleep, but...no way would sleep come.I live alone with OLI (my tort), and have not been able to make TRUE friends here. Sorry to say it, when people are of different nationalities, cultures, have different mentalities, speak different languages and so on, it is very hard to give and take with them. Know what I mean? That is, with all my respect to everyone-no offence. Furthermore, I am unemployed making things twice as difficult. I just do not know what on earth to do to kill time!Yes Gillian the little blighter did sink his teeth - I've got the scars to prove it - but he was a very angry young man and totally out of control so just lashing out - it wasn't personal - not as personal as me removing his teeth will be! He is actually a nice kid but when the red mist comes he can't help himself, this is par for the course in my job I wish it wasn't for the kids' sakes but there aren't too many who get into that state at the moment so we do what we can to help them manage it.
I'm sorry to hear you can't sleep there is nothing worse when you are tired and can't sleep. I don't know what to suggest that you probably haven't already tried. I went through a very stressful phase years ago and found relaxation recordings of oceans or countryside sounds helped, but it is different for everyone. If I can think of anything I will let you know. Also sorry to hear you are lonely, I don't know of your circumstances or opportunities to socialise in Jordan but they are going to be very different to ours in UK so it would be crass of me to make any suggestions. I do hope the doc can help though.
Meanwhile there's always a few crazy people here to hopefully take your mind off things and make you smile,
You are 100% right Lyn....it really is no joke. It is nerve-wrecking not to be able to sleep.It's no joke but I find it's a case of mind over mattress!
OK: 'Hi Wifey' from OLI and even from me.Yeah, she wants Oli to say hi.
The tortoise, not the footballer.
She wouldn't know who Oliver Kahn was, I'm afraid.
