Thursday Coffee & Chat - 26 March

It has stopped raining 🌧 here @Fluttershy1

Very hot and humid

But am OK

Doctors appointment today

How are you ☺️

@Shaz51 - I’m ok, got the procedure done on my foot yesterday so it’s sorta hurting today but apart from that I’m having a good day!

@Shaz51

Hi Shaz, I haven’t talked to you in a while, hope you’ve been well. I also hope your doctor’s appointment went okay. I got a spider plant cutting gifted to me, but I haven’t put it in soil yet. I’m thinking of doing that tomorrow maybe.

@Fluttershy1
Thanks! I ended up doing a bit of watercolour, just tried another mountain and lake landscape. It feels like I’m getting better with the mountains and shading. The lake part is still a bit tricky, but I guess practice is how you learn. Then I ended up having a quite a long nap. I slept rough last night, so that was really nice. I haven’t felt relaxed enough to nap for weeks, so that felt like a bit of a bonus.

What are you both having for dinner tonight?🙂

Hi

I've got a small beef pot roast in the instant pot on slow cook

Without naming specifics, I've sent several enquiries about procuring some sort of advocate to assist in dealing with healthcare. Today another option fell through

Meanwhile, my mood is tanking. Has anybody else who experiences SAD or Seasonal Depression had an early onset this year?

I have my routine down after 20+ years of this. I make a slow hot cocoa on the stove top to signal it in and accept it. I have telehealth therapy tomorrow, and I'm considering doing the session with my hot cocoa. My psychologist knows about the cocoa routine, but I've never shared/spent the moment with another human before

@DogMan79

Beef pot roast sounds really nice, it's something special with slow-cooked meals sometimes.
I'm really sorry to hear that your attempts to find an advocate didn't work out today. That sounds frustrating and exhausting. Thanks for sharing your cocoa routine. Whatever you decide tomorrow, whether to share the moment or just drink it for yourself, I really hope it brings you some comfort, and I wish you a good session tomorrow. Take care of yourself. If you feel comfortable, let us know what you decided tomorrow. 🙂

Hey @SaltwaterSoul - I ended up having a quiet one, I got a new tv as my other one died. I’m glad you did some painting.

im just watching a movie

Hello @Fluttershy1 , @SaltwaterSoul @DogMan79 , @tyme 😍

Hey @Shaz51 @SaltwaterSoul @DogMan79 @tyme - how are you this evening

Instant pot just beeped that my pot roast is ready

I'm currently quite comfy and enjoying listening to the steady rain. But I better eat
