Hi @eth

I may be going through a chrysalis period. I had a good gentle day. Am watching a difficult movie but will finish last 30 mins late.

Self isolation comes so naturally.

Today I washed sheets, and washed hair and me. A few hours on piano and online. Most "personal" contact on here. Exercises mostly done, just 3 floor ones to go, which I will do when I go to bed.

I trod on cat in hallway and he scooted off to couch. There are safe places for him all over ... eeeee ... we both are learning new ways. The middle door in house was usually closed for 17 years, and he slept near it so he could scoot out front when it opened. Now its just me, there are changes afoot, door is always open ... yesterday he did lay in his cat basket ... for the FIRST time ... hooray I bought them 3 years ago. Other cat liked his but has gone to god.

Being light hearted about the "god" topic has not come easily.

Tmrw for Easter I have chosen a 2016 St Clare red to open. The liquorice Easter egg is waiting ... it would be nice to have loved ones around to share ... but I am not allowed to .. even if I could ... so that kind of makes it abit better. Weird. I have spoiled myself foodwise this week. Cooking things that are yum not just nutritious, that I like. It feels strange to do the self care stuff regularly ... not when I am at breaking point....

Thank you for the opening to tell.

Hugs

I have learned a lot from you and others on here.

Love you too @Appleblossom and thanks for sharing. I'm by myself tonight too. Watching Shellie Morris perform live on the Woodford Folk Festival page on fb. I think you'd love her xx

Looks good @eth

I might reward myself with that after I have finished the difficult movie.

Ooh lovely picture (place) @Appleblossom

All those birds are cheap to buy too @Shaz51 I specialise in cheap birds - "Birds on a Budget".

They cost a lot less to buy than many parrot types.

Very cheap to feed - only $10 worth of birdseed per week, to feed about 60 birds.

Jelly cat eats almost that much (cat food not Bird seed), just on her own.

Nite nite everyone. Thanks for being here today.

@Adge @Appleblossom @Shaz51 @TAB @Angels333 and anyone else who was here. Feel free to carry on without me. Too many hours online today!
