Join us for Wellbeing Week // New forum event starting 9am Monday 25th 9am AEST finishing Friday 29th 9pm AEST

For the week starting the Monday 25th of May, join us for Wellbeing Week, where we can get together to share in some wellbeing activities and adventures! @Tortoiseshell will be kicking off and hosting, with help from @nashy @Jupiter and @CheerBear

The theme of our first wellbeing week is Self-Care Bingo. We've all been through increased isolation and now are facing more transitions, so it's a good time to revisit how we support ourselves. The bingo card with different self-care activities will be posted here Monday 25th at 9am. You can follow this by printing it out at home or by going back to the first page of this discussion.

You might get 'bingo' but we will all be winners for doing some self-care 🏆🏆🏆 Keep us updated on progress in the thread, where we can encourage and support each other.

How do I get involved
Wellbeing Week will be text based, so no software needed. Refresh the page to keep up with the latest posts. Keep an eye for page numbers at the top & bottom of the page, and jump to the highest page number for the most recent post.

Watch a favourite show/movie

it was my birthday on Monday and I watched the pursuit of happiness. I watch every year on/around my birthday to give me some perspective!

Yesterday I had a shower, watched a funny video and hugged my kid.

It doesn't sound like much, but it was a reminder that little things make a difference.

My mini goals are to message someone for no reason and wind down before bed.

I am feeling sad about the pet photo because I had to say goodbye to my lovely dog a week ago and can't bring myself to post her picture.

Go well on the self care front today everyone.

@Shaz51@NatureLover @elilith @Former-Member @Former-Member ... and everyone participating on the forum one way of another.

Good morning everyone 😎 Another lovely start to the day to come by and see how everyone went yesterday.

@Maggie and @Former-Member your furbabies are adorable! @Former-Member your picture on your wall is very cool. Did you make the picture yourself? @BlueBay sounds like you've been really busy lately. Hope there is some time for you in it all. @Escaped_Goat I am not sure if you've shared any of your cross stitch here on the forum before (I can't remember if you have sorry!). Would love to see if you're up for sharing. @Shaz51 your tree is ah-mazing!!! The Pursuit of Happpiness is a great movie @elilith - happy birthday for Monday. So sorry to hear about your dog @frog 🙁.

I am a day behind in posting, thanks to life being life. But yesterday I:

* spent some time in the garden (no actual gardening for me because it is too cold and wet, plus I hate weeds and our garden is full of them at the moment)

* tried to have a nap in the afternoon. I didn't sleep but I did curl up and shut my eyes for a little while

* messaged someone for no reason. A long time friend I don't speak with often. It felt nice

I have a little obssession with toadstoods and mushrooms at the moment. I've been watching these ones grow, turn inside out almost, and have babies. Then watching their babies grow and so on. This was one that was teeny little the other day that I took a pic of yesterday while I was in the garden

Today is trying to get my creative side happening. And a pet photoshoot (I can hear how excited the cats are about that already 😆😉)

Looking forward to hearing about everyone's day today ❤

@CheerBear I haven't shared any of my cross stitch before because it leaves the house as soon as it's done 😂 This is the first piece I've worked on since joining the forums and it's a birth notice for my soon to be born grandson so I can't share the part that I have completed so far because it's only his name but when I've done a bit more I promise I will share. 🙂.

Morning everyone

Looks like it was quite a quiet day yesterday. How did everyone go with their bingo? @Peri your dogs look very sweet all sleepy and snug on the bed 😊

I tried to get my craft on but it didn't work well so I took a photo of the sky instead. I caught a moment of the sun trying to peek through some clouds.

I also tried a pet photoshoot but my furballs didn't want to perform for me (no surprise there haha 😻) But here are a couple of my fave pics of them from not yesterday.

Mouse cat with the beautiful eyes

Big chunky Noodle cat

and little Rocket cat (on top of Mouse cat) who is the boss of them/us all 😁

Looking forward to hearing how everyone gets on today! ❤

Your photos are wonderful @CheerBear and your cat family gorgeous. You are a really good photograher too. Thanks for sharing.

Hi everyone.
