I Could Use A Shoulder, Ear or Just A Friend/Mate

We all have those days... do you need to vent about that 3rd day in a row flat battery, do you need someone to listen to you without judgement, someone to help you realize it's ok to feel the way you do and be there when you're dogs asleep or you're alone by the fire.... NO JUDGEMENT, here's your spot.... if it gets personal and you feel more comfortable you can always take your chat to private message but know you are safe to share here. We all have those days. This is the one and only spot/exception on the forum where I WILL INSTANTLY BAN SOMEONE, PERMANENTLY for sticking a boot into someone who is hurting and is sharing openly!!!!!
