Friday Coffee and Chat -- 29th August 2025

@Oaktree let me know how it goes.

$20 for one week sounds pretty expensive just for them to organise 5 random people into one cafe. But $10 per week if 6 weeks isnt too bad, esp if they group locals or people with similar interests.

@AlwaysMyself

They ask you questions to match you with others

Ohh that is interesting @Oaktree

What are you planning to do tomorrow @creative_writer ? Anything planned?

Hello @Shaz51 greetings and a lovely Friday to you! My astrology subscription allows for premium readings now going into all the minor angles between planets at no extra cost. It began this week. I have also been able to cultivate even greater internal energy balance and harmony using the principles of chinese element theory. Have being doing number crunching using regular things I need to buy saving myself a nice sum of money each month by supporting local business, buying in bulk and accepting the Jacinta Allen power saving bonus. Read a beautiful article this week from an author whose creative prose warms my heart. Watched a beautiful presentation on how to heal with fresh oregano and looking forward to having it in my garden and another informative presentation from independent news. I'm happy these good things have entered my world!

Oh my goodness @SmilingGecko

Welcome back! I was only thinking of you the other day. I linked our thread New Age Endeavours

@rav3n I've had a non progressive week, I didn't get out of bed yesterday. I am fighting an internal battle with myself, worrying that this is it, this is where my life stops progressing versus the belief that I am allowed to have down time, I have a mental illness. I have never suffered so badly before though, the past 2 years have felt like I have stopped living while the world goes on around me.

My GP says it's me adjusting to diabetes medication but does it really take over 3 months to get back into being a functioning human?

I need to stop complaining, I have a roof over my head and food in the fridge as well as Foxtel/Netflix. There are so many people who have much less.

Yes, Funnings is what @Glisten started calling it. It is my happy place!
