Pretty bored. Stil suffering from POTS, getting slowly bored of sitting around and watching TV with intermittent anxiety. But hey, there are enough nice shows on, I have some cozy games and good books stacked up. I might do some Yin Yoga to stretch my body a bit.
Enjoy the start of the weekend all of you.

@Tragicfarinelli How I hate that prep. I feel you :poop:
@Matt Get well soon!
@JazzyS Enjoy some quality time with your sister :heart_eyes:
@Cjp Hugs and calming vibes your way :ocean:

Update: Cats & I made it to the townhouse, everything went well, Schimanskiā€™s shitshow is cleaned up. Poor boy always poops, he is so nervous while travelling. It will be an early night, the cats already had dinner, I will enjoy some food delivery soon. The amenities of staying in town :grin:

Happy Friday gang, whatā€™s good?

Itā€™s been a minute since Iā€™ve posted, been pretty busy and also seasonal depression has been a pain in the ass.

After years of my family telling me that I should get my eyes checked, I got my eyes checked. Turns out, Iā€™ve needed glasses this whole time. I picked them up last night and am at home today getting acclimated.

Turns out, they donā€™t tell you when you get glasses for the first time (or at least this was kept from me), that while things are crisp, and the detail & color pops, things will look weird, specifically depth and orientation. It also causes mild motion sickness, diziness and headaches, but Iā€™ve heard it takes a few days to get used to it; Hope so!

But holy crap gang, xmas lights at night, are FREAKON AMAZEBALLS!!! I can actually see! To think I went 46 years with blurry, double vision thinking that was normal.

Stay beautiful gang!

I feel with you, my eyes are weird and sometimes when I get new glasses itā€™s the same here :see_no_evil: Allthough Iā€™ve been wearing glasses my whole life :joy:
Iā€™m happy you see the world in itā€™s full brightness now :tada::notes::sparkles:

Iā€™m glad I went out today and had an unconventional walk through my city. Saw some stuff I never saw before. Right around the corner from where I live. And stayed dry while doing it, which is quite a feat in this time of year here. Tomorrow more wind and rain. Never mind. Have to take Luna to the vet for her monthly shot. Hope it will be dry for that. Otherwise not much planned yet. Will see. Maybe a visit to a friend is a plan. Have a good weekend all!

Great to see you posting Dan!

That can be overwhelming ā€“ do know you have friends here to reach out to. You donā€™t have to deal with that depressive crap on your own.

Looking sharp with your new specs. Sorry you were not warned of the effects. Hope they even out for you soon.

Enjoy them crisp lights and your new found vision :hugs:

Mid Friday over here means an end to my week off. Tomorrow I re-join the working world.

This week was great. I was lazy and productive and allowed plenty of room for the big feelings I can generally feel around the holidays and plenty of room for the grief Iā€™ve been fighting since my Mom died.

Tonight Iā€™m going to put up my Christmas tree and maybe go see Wicked. Iā€™ll also be making homemade turkey and wild rice soup to freeze since I cooked a whole bird yesterday. Maybe an angel food cake too.

Today my husband told me he missed me, even though we just spent a week together. I understand this, I havenā€™t been myself and Iā€™ve been hiding in an addiction for too long in order to mute my grief. Iā€™m ready to crawl out of that addiction now. Youā€™ll hear more on this as soon as Iā€™m ready to talk it out. For now, Iā€™ll do the dishes so I can make more as I cook myself delicious things.

Keep your chins up folks I find this to be a really tough time of year. šŸ©·

Glad you had a week off for yourself and you are feeling like you were able to address the grief you are feeling. Iā€™m sure itā€™s not all gone but I do hope you are feeling better all around.

Christmas decorations and Wicked sounds awesome. Have heard great reviewsā€¦hope you enjoy!

Much love to you Emilie - we are all here for you :people_hugging:

I wouldnā€™t call today an easy day, but it was worthwhile and now I have tomorrowā€™s village Christmas market to look forward to :star_struck:

But first, I gotta catch up on the 3 hours of interrupted sleep I got last nightā€¦

I start into this Friday with a stuffy nose. I got wet and super cold yesterday, thanks to the crazy weather we had.
Itā€™s the last day of work for this year, Iā€™ll have time until the 6. to relax, work out, do stuff I love and eat of course hehe.
Enjoy your day guys :smiling_face:
