The Weekly Friday Feast

Hi @Crazy_Bug_Lady, @eth, @PeppiPatty, @NikNik. Good to see you all.

I'm adding a chicken and leek pie (had little one earlier today):

Happy Friday everyone.

Hi @NikNik, @eth & @Crazy_Bug_Lady,

sorry i was going to take the night off from here, i am still shaken up by the events 2 weeks ago and am a litle worried i will upset someone, @NikNik, i love the hamburgers, they are hilarious.

yes i can share the cheese platter.

Have a great night all.

I will be reading this thread, you are all in my thoughts.

Jacques

@Crazy_Bug_Lady Thanks for kicking it off tonight 🙂

I had a great week. Met lots of people at a conference I went to, learnt a whole heap of stuff .... hurt my brain a bit!

Hi everyone,

I had a tough week as usual, but I survived. I went to yoga three times. I didn't really achieve much else.... Depression has been very severe for months & I tire easily. Heard of the "spoon theory"?

I think my partner is just cooking vegetables for dinner - I'm very hungry - I skipped lunch...

Thanks for the company...

Hi @Jacques that cheese platter looks amazing! Do you want to talk about what happened 2 weeks ago?

Hmm @Jacques I'm not too sure what happened two weeks ago (I should.. I was on that night if it was a Friday 2 weeks ago), but the last thing we want is for you to stop getting involved.

I hope you reconsider when you're feeling up to it.

@eth - I've always wanted to celebrate Halloween - but we don't do a good job of it here in Aus, do we!

I have been to a few Halloween parties.. but not proper trick or treating.

I'm impressed @Former-Member, going to yoga 3 times is more than I achieved. My biggest achievement lately is staying reasonably stable regarding bipolar mood swings, sleeping better at night, and avoiding PTSD triggers. I did a lot of yoga in my past and it's sooo good for you, not just physically but mentally and with the hormones and enzymes too. I still use breath exercises and visualizations learned in those days.

Hi @Former-Member Congrats about getting to yoga so many times. I relate to 'not doing much'. I'm slowly lifting myself out of the doldrums, trying to see a glass-half-full as much as possible, but still haven't made it to tai chi, lol.

@Jacques What a cheese platter! Those grapes look delicious too.

hi @NikNik & @eth,

It was not on friday night feast, it was on my thread, i was trying to be nice to a new member and offended them. they have not been on sice, so i am not comfortable anymore talking to others, you are all dear to me, but iifind it too difficult to know how to word things, i have been isolated form society for so long, i have lost my ability to know what is appropriate or not.

@Jacques I guess it's complicated when different people with different problems try to reach out to each other, but I think that's why we're all on here - we take a risk to feel more connected. It's a shame someone was upset but I'm sure your intention was in the right place and that's what matters. It's good to know you're still following the forum anyway, this is one of the best ones I've found in several years.
