The Weekly Friday Feast

NikNikSenior Contributor22 May 2015, 5:12 pm AEST

The Weekly Friday Feast

Thank goodness it's Friday (or TGIF as some say!)

We thought we would start a thread where we could come together every Friday and "share a meal" and debrief about our week.

To participate, there are 2 requirements -

1) Bring a (virtual) plate of food

2) Bring a topic of discussion

So pull up a virtual chair, post a picture or description of what (virtual) dish you're bringing along and say hi and let us know how your week was.

Looking forward to seeing you at our first Friday Feast!

Chat soon 🙂

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

How exciting @MDT. Do you have friends or family to visit there?

I'm doing fairly well lately. Getting out 3 x a week with support workers thanks to NDIS funds. And will have new teeth from tomorrow morning (dentures replaced by public dental clinic). Looking forward to smiling more!

How are you going?

Hi @MDT All the very best for your trip.

I hope it goes really well, & maybe opens up new opportunities for you.

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Hi @eth How are you?

I'm frazzled (very tired) & sunburnt - having been out in near 40C with clients (cooking) in a park today.

I've virtually given up on trying to access the NDIS (for myself) - I maybe don't have your perseverence.

They explained nothing, & sent me a pile of forms (that I can't do).

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Hey @Adge do you have a doctor or better yet psychologist who can do the forms with you? The whole thing is very overwhelming at first I agree. Maybe some of the posts on the 'Anyone Started with the NDIS?' thread (https://saneforums.org/t5/Our-stories/Anyone-started-with-the-NDIS/td-p/157210) I started last year could be helpful to you. Feel free to ask me any questions you have, I'm pretty familiar with a lot of it by now. Quite a bit of it is like learning a new language, but support is out there, maybe I can give you some options for that too.

I nearly gave up several times, but eventually being approved has changed my life for the better.

Hi @Shaz51!
