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 🙂

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Ooooo! So great to hear you are in going to PARCs! Make the most of it @Judi9877 !

Is the stay 2 weeks where you are going, or still 4 weeks?

I know many are reducing the max stay to be 2 wks now, which I personally don't think is sufficient.

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Hi @tyme . The PARCS stay is meant to be for 2 weeks now but I was hoping for a bit longer as I’ll get released the day before my Mums anniversary of her death on 29/6 and that day can be very emotional for me, especially since it’s been 20 years this coming year. I’ll try and make the most of the stay by looking after myself and doing things especially for me and doing some self care activities like getting back into cross stitching which I’ve recently rediscovered as of last night when a missing design of mine showed up making me feel very happy indeed. I’m currently working on it as we speak tonight whilst listening to the AFL on TV.

@MDT I’m sorry to hear that you’re not travelling the best these past few days😢. Lifeline can be a great service to contact as I’ve used them in the past to help me with my issues to some great help. I hope you manage to feel better soon. I’m sitting with you here in forumland if you need someone on your side. I value your friendship and love how you are so passionate about study and trying to deal with your issues. Sending positive thoughts your way from a cold Melbourne!

Take care!

Judi9877☺️🌻

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

thats very kind my friend and thank you for the support @Judi9877
It is a rough time atm but i can see this out i think
just gotta take care of myself (for example i had some leftovers tonight and had some proper meat and some carrot). Rather than order something. There is a huge link between what we eat and our mental health.
Also exercise. Sydney is hard these days and I dunno if i like it this way...
Gonna log off soon and go to bed. Wanna do my early morning run/walk tomorrow and see sunrise again.

I feel so isolated these days hey...

see you round

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

No Feasing for me, at the moment.

I've had Covid, for almost a week.

Severe Flu-like Symptoms early last Thursday morning, were the 1st I knew of it.

RAT tests were all -ve Results (No you Don't have it), for 3 days - Then, Yep.

My intuition Was Correct - There must be a time-Lapse of Several Days, when the tests Don't Pick it up (Give a -ve Result).

So I've been Isolating/ Quarantining.

Not back to Work Yet, until my Symptoms Clear.

Re: The Weekly Friday Feast

Good evening feasters. Dropping in to say hi. Won't be at the feast tonight as I have event irl.
Should be interesting to see who turns up.
I do hope you're well.
I had a week from hell last week - called Lifeline 3 times - but this past week has been better. I had some good news about an application getting to the next level.

Onwards we go hey.
