Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Well hello to anyone who's discovered this new thread .... and welcome!!!

For some time I've noticed things are a bit quiet on a Saturday, especially in the evening. So this will be a social gathering for all forumites and hopefully a place to relax and meet friends. It's also a place where you can talk about whatever's going on for you at the moment, safely, and find support.

If you want to bring something to eat or drink that would be welcome, whatever makes you happy.

Actually that may be a good place to start - jump in anywhere and let us know one thing that makes you happy - currently or over time.

Really looking forward to finding a posse to hang with on a Saturday.

L E T ' S P A R T Y !!!

And of course the beverage of your choice.

EDIT : Do feel free to contribute some music too. Of any style. The more the merrier ...

Welcome!!!

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

@Abner the book you are currently reading Sweat: the History of Exercise, does it cover the history of the walking/running machine?

@fairyheart did you say that is had been walking today?

@Glisten
There is a few reasons for my name

Arra - I identify as Arrernte, also known as Arrarnta (see, Arra) and also my totemic spirit is Ara (red kangaroo)

@ArraDreaming thank you. The forum community means a LOT to me.

I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for the genuine care, compassion, validation, kindness and support of the community.

Everyone that’s here is vulnerable, but we are safe here.

@Shaz51 and @Glisten thanks for the warm welcome and bring a tear to my eye (haha)

@Glingy it was me who had been for a walk today.

Hope the Saturday has been kind to you all, sending love and hug for those that want them

@Glisten @Shaz51 @Jynx @ArraDreaming

I'm well! Happy to see you all here. I do have a cold of some sorts and have been busy today with work but now making a Vietnamese crab soup. We will have my parents over for dinner and soup is the best on a cold night like tonight!

@Shaz51 I don't know if I will ever be able to retire! Paying the mortgage will take us a while. And I'm no sute what I would do. Work helps me keep distracted from all I deal with.

Hope you and Mr Shaz find a good balance that works for you both.

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

@Healandlove now I want your soup for dinner LOL Yum 😋

In response to: Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Your soup sounds very nice @Healandlove ☺️

I know what you mean about retiring 🤔 I am a bit concerned about Mr shaz because working has helped both of us

So this is going to be a new area for us

Re: Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

Staying active is key I reckon @Shaz51! My dad got pretty depressed after he retired, but he ended up getting a job in a surfboard shop (he's an old school surfer dude haha) making and selling boards, and it gave him so much of his spark back! I'm sure you and Mr Shaz will find your new groove once you're set with the health stuff, and know more about your needs and capacity 🤞💜
