Good morning @rav3n @PeppyPatti @creative_writer @Ru-bee @Appleblossom @The-red-centaur @Glisten @Oaktree @Shaz51 @tyme @Jynx @Dreamy @MJG017 @Till23 !

My usual psychiatrist is on leave, so I saw the covering psychiatrist. He agreed to reduce my sleep antipsychotic quite a bit. So I had a less drugged sleep and I feel more energised this morning. Hopefully I will be able to go without the one- to two-hour nap that I've been having the last few weeks.

Also, I'm planning to make my second toastie at my unit today.

The weather here is settling and more comfortable, it feels like we may have had the last of the hot. summery days. The sun is setting earlier and earlier, so it'll be better when daylight savings ends soon.

Wishing you all a great Tuesday!

Morning @Spirit_Healer, glad that the psychiatrist has reduced that medication and that you have woken up feeling more energised today. Remember there's nothing wrong with needing a nap though, when we have been or are going through alot it's good to let our bodies rest 😊. 

Hope the toastie making goes well, I'm sure it will be yummy 😋. 

The weather has definitely been more manageable, i love the cool change coming in earlier as the evening sets in. 

Hope you have a wonderful day, keep up the amazing work. So proud of you ❤️

I'm a bit late to reply @Spirit_Healer 

It's great that you feel more energised

What type of toastie did you have?

I'm glad it's not as hot as it has been where you are.

I need it to be sunny for a day or two here so I can get some washing dry!

Hello @Dreamy @Till23 @creative_writer @rav3n @Appleblossom @Glisten!

I followed up my ham and cheese toastie yesterday with my first stove-cooked meal in my unit today:

Stir-fried choy sum and beef with steamed rice

It feels so good to be self-sufficient! And it wasn't so scary after all.

OMG yummmmm @Spirit_Healer looks amazing!! Kudos!! 😍

Good on you @Spirit_Healer 

It looks yum.

Funny how things can seem more scary than they really are when you take action.  I try and be forgiving and not set too high expectations. Haha. I had a piano teacher who had a motto…for parents that high expectations gets results… but I didn’t always find that to be true. Mostly I see it as paralysing people and getting in the way… tho sometimes… maybe… it works that way. Whatever! Enjoy your space, your cooking and your food.
