Hi everyone,
In quiet and somewhat exhausted mode tonight after possibly the biggest week I've had for years. Out every day walking in the heat and humidity after not much sleep, social contact everywhere I went, and a health scare in the midst of it all that had me spinning myself out with worst case scenarios. Luckily that turned out to be the best case scenario, given the other possibilities. But I do need to be on a steroid inhaler every day for some time. Despite the ups and downs, tiredness and paranoias of the week, it's good to be engaging with the 'whole damn thing' instead of hiding in my flat like I did for so long.
Happy feasting to all! 
Hi Friday feasters 😄
Well i have been a busy little bee today, i painted another room, did some shopping and mowed the lawns.
It is safe to say i am absolutely buggered 🙂 it is nice to be tired from doing something, i have achieved so much this week, had some really bad days, but the past 2 have been a nice change.
Oh my dear @Former-Member, how about we have some nice vegan food here, OMG @NikNik, do they not have a stove to cook the fish? 🙂
Congrats @Mazarita Sounds like you ventured out into the world again and it was bearable.
Hi @BamBam and @Former-Member
Hey @MoonGal I looked up Juliet Marilier ... she looks like fun .. I can see a time in the not so distant future where I can read stuff and watch stuff when I want ... yay
for dinner have salad and .. chops defrosting ... waiting for my boy/man to come home ...
H @NikNik sushi train is a fave for my son ... I am fine with handrolls ... but ask for brown rice ..
Do I have to do a picture of food? 
What a week Mazarita! I was so relieved today to read your post about the false alarm. Still doesn't sound great, but glad it's not as bad as it may have been.
@Jacques Who needs a stove when you can have it straight from the ocean (okay.. maybe not quite!)
@Former-Member I wish there was a magic wand I could give you 
But it sounds like you're doing a great job with your coping strategies and it's excellent you've been able to maintain your yoga. I'm off to yoga nice and early tomorrow morning... I hate it when I get up.. but I go because I know I will feel SO much better afterwards.
