The Weekly Friday Feast

[Mazarita]

@Shaz51, I'm 'over-wired' tonight, a bit restless and agitated. Aside from that, okay. Grateful I got a full night's sleep last night and had an active morning into early afternoon, including lots of walking. ox

[CherryBomb]

Yikes, just read over Anxious Sundays, a broken ute, a broken hearing aid, and changing meds. What a week @Shaz51.

Its not much but can I offer you some rice pudding for dessert? I also got some ice cream. Anyone else want a serving?

[Shaz51]

Oh yummy , yes please @CherryBomb 

[CherryBomb]

Aww @Shaz51! **virtual hugs** That's so much for one week. Car hassels are terrible, and adding medical issues sounds so stressful. 

When sh*t hits the fan like this, I think it can be helpful to get back to basics - eat well, rest, exercise and most of all be kind to yourself. Do what you can to look after yourself - this can help build your resilience.

Thanks @CherryBomb... It is easier to run in autumn & winter, because you don't need to wake up so early. In summer you need to get outside early or it is too hot, which doesn't bother some - but I find it difficult to deal with. If you are a walker - perhaps go for a walk in the middle of the day - when it is warmest during autumn & winter. Try hot yoga too!! I'm not really sure how to stay connected socially.... I guess going to yoga - at least you SEE other people... Maybe think about a type of exercise you enjoy & see if there are options to do that in a group?! I want to join the Toowoomba running group sometime - I was in a running group in Brisbane in 2014 - it helped keep me connected & encouraged & motivated... Since becoming vegan - I don't gain weight over winter - it is awesome! Even though instead of piccolos I tend to have small flat whites! Namaste, A
