That’s nice @tyme 🙂🌺😎

I’ve been cooking for the upcoming week so I will have more time to do stuff, and try to stay on time through the week 🙂🌺

I have to pop out, then I’ll make @Oaktree ’s cooking group recipe, then study. That’s my fun day because it’s the weekend and I don’t have to answer lots of emails and calls 😃😆🙌🏻☺️🤗

Hi @Shaz51 @tyme @Former-Member and all forumites here. Fun to me looks like doing things I enjoy and being able to relax without any pressure or time constraints. It means being creative and expressing myself such as via knitting blankets, beanies, crocheting, cross stitch, drawing without any barriers or worries about how something will turn out. It’s about doing things I want to do and making time to do it, even if they means just vegging out in front of the TV and watching reality tv shows!

@tyme I was reading this and I thought of you: "Tranquillity is associated with the absence of demand and no pressure to do anything." (From Atlas of the Heart by Brene Brown.) She says it's a restorative environment that counters mental fatigue.

Happy recharging!

I think that what’s fun changes from day to day! Feel free to keep coming back here to post what is fun for you or something fun you are actually doing each day. Today I gave my son’s girlfriend a big Cadbury Milk Chocolate Easter Egg. That was fun for me…

Todays fun consisted in doing something alongside people here on the forums, with cooking those yum lemon crackle cakes 💜🌺🙂

I live so much life in isolation due to health conditions, this feels like being beside people, doing something together 🙌🏻😊
