Hi everyone @Appleblossom @Zoe7 @Shaz51 @TAB @Bow @Dimity 🙂
Haven't been here a while, welcome to anyone to comment and say hi!
How are you?
Im struggling a bit with the NDIS at the moment. My funding was cut a great deal. I had decided to go on a carer respite while i still had funding, tongiht, but it went very badly 😞 i am now back at home. I hope everyone is doing okay x

@dimity you've sold me on a kitten.
I would love one 🙂
@PeppyPatti so nice to see u
@TAB seems like things are going well with ur pet
i have put on weight and not been eating properly, and trying to get back into excercising. I remember you were going on walks in nature.
I'm starting very small, just walking around the block, but i feel not fit at all and chubby.

lol same @TAB i barely move and i drink tonnes of coke.
I am addicted!
My psychiatrist said the taste is the worst anyway and he'd pick coke zero anyday or pepsi max over the sugary coke that i drink.
I remember thinking how somehow i've got addicted to somethiing which has zero nutritional benefits. There is nothing in coke that is healthy.
🙂
Thanks for sharing the book, i hadnt seen it before!
i don't know much about diets, but i know i'm chubby.
I got out of hospital 10 days ago, and have been settling back in, and trying to do some nice things for myself. Although I don't excercise i try and at least enjoy nature, but its hard. I feel at times quite depressed

@EternalFlower my apologies a couple of days ago I confused you with @pinklollipop15 who I also haven't seen for ages. I wonder how they are.
My last kitten was a little tuxedo. She was a lovely natured cat.

@Dimity no problems therr at all....thank u i noticed as i dont yet have kids but it didnt bother me at all! I do it here all the time and misgendered tabs pet earlier.
I havent been here for ages. I dont know that user, have they left?
It is definitely diff coming back, i dont get replies to emails anymore in the same way and moderator responses have a more canned element rather than psw. It makes me wander what happens behind the scenes.
Ur cat sounds beautiful. I would like to get a russian blue. I am sorry for ur loss and hoping ur ok in the grief. Change and loss is so hard.
I just got back from hospital 10 days ago and am settling back in. It hasnt been too bad. I feel like the time has flown
