Re: Fancy a cuppa , Connect now 2

@Ru-bee I can’t hike anymore. Too old and get puffed out, also am very slow. Still walk every day takes me ages to get to local shop and back.

Sometimes I walk to a shop that’s further away and go to cafe and sometimes chiro as well. They have a bigger range in their supermarket there, but are expensive. I just get a few things that I can carry. Get a takeaway burger too. I zap it later.

Have to turn heater off. Getting too hot. Hot flush. After I have a smoke. Yes I smoke alas.

There is a Chinese healer just around the corner from me. Their acupuncture and massage works wonders on my back and neck.

@Ru-bee my week is going okay

Exhausting. Yesterday I had my GP. I was only there for coronary calcium score (which was perfect zero) but he wrote a referral to the public psych

they tried to ring, we played phone-tag

I got hold of them around 2am and spoke to triage for 40 minutes on the phone. They had CATT ring, but i didn't answer. I'll return the call tomorrow

Had my psychologist today. I'm still restricted to video sessions

@rav3n dirty chai is the best!

All good re editing out the business, but you should know I've mentioned it several times before and it was never an issue. It's like saying The Coffee Club or Starbucks. It's not a cafe and it certainly doesn't matter re the location as it is nowhere near me.

This is not against you because you are an amazing PSW but it really is a little silly to edit the name of a business that sells coffee products. I've even given the web address to other members and it was fine with the other PSW who was a part of the conversation.

I'm sorry, I am just extremely frustrated with feeling so restricted so often.

@Ru-bee hi lovely 😍

A nice quiet day for me. Trying to stay cool with wretched hot flushes and sweat. Being a female sucks sometimes!!

Re: Fancy a cuppa , Connect now 2

Lol @GezzaP lost in mind vs physical location - thats a winner! I love it! I eould laugh good naturedly too 😁. I like keeping language learning light, i think it creates a good environment to let people learn and practice and not have to worry about always being perfect because its ok (even good fun!) When people do naturally make mistakes.

When learning Aus sign language (Auslan) I accidently said I had to leave for "drugs" instead of an "appointment" 🤣 (the difference? The position of your thumbs!!) To this day I still confuse them!

I once accidently indicated that a book could write itself (an "automatic" biography, rather than changing to "self" biography instead of the word 'auto').

Ive seen a few people mistakenly sign a word for a genital instead of "boat". That seems semi-common - again its the positioning of the thumbs lol.

@ENKELI @rav3n

I'm not much of a coffee drinker myself, but I brought back coffee from Flores in Indonesia for family and friends. 😊 Flores is a popular location for coffee beans.

If I had more free time whilst interstate I'd ask for coffee shop recommendations to check out (which, as @ENKELI says doent have to be local to someone or could be a chain) as a way to go around the city with purpose lol. 😋

I like that some cities have their own local-chains which is super common in that areas but not outside of it. We have one like that where I am. I think there would be 10-20 stores within the region, but dont think they exist anywhere else (or not that ive ever seen)

Lol @AlwaysMyself . I’m waiting for electrician company to call me back. Hate this. Told tradie to tell them not to call between 11.50 and 2pm as I am taking myself to local pub for lunch today. Bet they call then.

Re: Fancy a cuppa , Connect now 2

Fingers crossed they dont @GezzaP , but 100% know what you mean! So often I will tell somewhere that say they will call me, i will tell them what time i cant take a call (due to a work meeting or maybe an appointment), and quite often they still do - and of course i let it go to voicemail thats what it is for.

Lunch at the pub sounds nice. Is there a specific dish you like at this one?

I have brought myself some carrots, cucumber, cherry tomatos, and capsicum to nibnle for lunch. 😊

Re: Fancy a cuppa , Connect now 2

I will have the squid @AlwaysMyself . I don’t like any of the other dishes that they have on specials menu.

Sounds like it has been a challenging week @DogMan79 how's the end of the week shaping up for you? Hoping it brings a bit for ease for you

@ENKELI hot flushes sound like no fun at all, how are you feeling today?

@Ru-bee

Saturday CAT Team. Zoning of hospitals means MH for my street is not the closest hospital. It's 90 minutes travel

Ongoing care should be closer, but still a counter-intuitive location
