The Weekly Friday Feast

NikNikSenior Contributor

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 🙂

Study and work @eth
I am going there next year. But in a week I am just travelling around the US and also Warsaw in Poland.
I am a bit nervous about it all and it caught up with me today. To think in March this year I was in hospital for my MH.
I think the shock value of it all hit me a bit.
I have support from family and friends. Life has a beauty to it.
I think I'll. Be okay

Be at peace in your heart and soul and your mind can hopefully follow 🙂

@Adge all the best with the NDIS. My sister is on it and it can be a right nuisance organising it. But once it is done it is effective

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Really nice that you are seeing the beauty @MDT. It sounds like a huge adventurous step for you. Great to have such support.

I went to Denmark and Canada by myself with no support at all for 2 months in Denmark. I look back on it now and wonder how I did it, even just negotiating airports and flights. But I did do it, learned a lot (including about myself!) and made it home safely. You can too!!! Travelling with support is the way to go.

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

I’m pretty good @eth.

@Janiee - Maltesers are light - they don’t count as bad food.

@Adge - sounds like you need a restorative kind of weekend.

@MDT - you WILL be fine. You’ll look back and wonder why you were so worried.

Hi @Janiee If maltesers make you happy then they're good for your mental health!

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Thanks @eth I have a limited amount of support - gardening (every 6 weeks) & MH Group lunch.

Both are funded by state agencies, that I had already been assessed for (& qualified).

Now it's all switching to the NDIS, the state agencies are closing permanently.

So I will lose my gardening service & maybe my MH lunch, if I don't now Re-qualify (again) for the NDIS (instead).
