Re: Life and trauma

It's just so refreshing to read all the supportive posts here @MJG017 @Oaktree @Former-Member 🙂

LOL @Oaktree - frozen chicken and cheese?

I have to say I beat you though.... you put cheese in the deep freezer. I put my phone in the fridge. It was on silent. It took AGES to find it!

So the weirdest things:

1) Phone in the fridge

2) phone in a cycle of washing laundry

And yes.... the phone is still alive and kicking. I still use it lol.

What snack did you have instead?

Have you ever had a craving for something? And no matter what you eat, you never feel satisfied until you've eaten that very thing you wanted? That happens to me a lot....

I settled for a can of cold Pepsi Max. Maybe I will eat some pistachios instead. I have some from Aldi that are roasted and salted and still in their shells. They are delicious

Sorry! Coke fan here... not Pepsi lol @Oaktree

As for pistachios? Yummo. I haven't had them in a while now. Actually, I ate almond thins these evening, with dinner. I actually wanted a plain sao or something, but couldn't find any, so I just ate the almond thins.

Anyway, your snack sounds yums.

I'm sitting here smelling the rain. It smells so fresh. So pleasant.

Plans tomorrow?

@tyme

My only plan for tomorrow is to stay home and stay cool. I will have to pop to the shop for bread rolls on Tuesday. My son doesn’t like cheesy potatoes so he will have his tandoori chicken nuggets with chips and a bread roll on Wednesday. Because my fussy daughter is home for Christmas we are not having traditional fare. We are having her favourite. Spicy tandoori chicken nuggets with tangy lime sauce. The nuggets are home made. We are making Christmas traditions with cheesy potatoes, stuffing and gravy lol. None of it really goes together so we’ll probably all use two plates

omg I just got out the shower to read all this. This is amazing and is a great distraction. I'm trying not to disturb everyone with laughing out loud 🤣.

@MJG017 i think clowns are awesome.

@tyme this is certainly keeping me entertained. I'm still kicking so that's a bonus and a win for me 🤣

@Oaktree seems we are chatterboxes but I'm so thankful cos it's really helping me. Mmmm frozen cream cheese and crackers. Do hope you managed to find something else to snack on, I'm trying to survive on hospital food 🤣

Re: Life and trauma

@tyme you guys are all amazing and supportive.

Lol to the phone in the fridge, I'm always doing funny things. Bonus that the phone is still working.

I have cravings all the time and yes if I don't get what I want I'm never satisfied 🤣

I ended up eating pistachios.

I have to eat them on one side of my mouth as a bit of one of my back teeth fell out a couple of weeks ago and I didn’t go to the dentist. It hurts if something gets caught in it. Might have to give in and go to the dentist in the end.

The good thing about hospital food is that you don’t have to cook it, or do the washing up!

In response to: Re: Life and trauma

Re: Life and trauma

@Former-Member Surviving hospital food is a challenge in itself 😁

@Oaktree I say just lick the cream cheese like its an iced lolly! 😆

Re: Life and trauma

@Oaktree @tyme pistachios are so good. Now I've got a craving for them 🤣
