Thanks for sharing the lovely pics, Artie! Sounds like you had a nice time.

Artie, those are not the usual spaces and formations we see. They are so interesting!

Well, groceries are in, amazon stuff is coming tomorrow, im gonna take a quick rest then clean the place up a bit. I am pretty close to averaging the 150 minutes of exercise per week for the past month, so thats cool. Saw my cutie eye dr this week, he said the cataract eye's vision is improving!!! Procrastination rules!!!

That's all great news, Una!

I took SO many pictures because everywhere I looked there were more cool rock formations. I can't wait to go hiking there again!

and Una, that's good news about your vision improving!

I may end up with enough poems about leaving therapy to create another couch how-to guide to add to the others titled "How to get over your ex-t: a guide in poetry" bahahahahaha

you've got your day organized and are making great progress on multiple fronts! It's especially encouraging to hear that your eye's vision is improving – a testament to the importance of staying on top of health appointments. Keep up the good work, and enjoy your well-deserved rest before tackling the cleaning!

Your perspective and insights could provide valuable guidance and support for others going through similar transitions. Plus, injecting a bit of humor adds a lighthearted touch to what can be a challenging “journey”. Keep up Artie bean you’re doing really well.

I feel anxious with current world escalations.

Currently binge watching a zombie series. My current comfort show is the Korean series “all of us are dead. I also love train to Busan. Which shows I’m wired a different way as I’ve seen it so many times I know what’s going to happen.

I had a session with someone I saw last year in May, on Thursday. I left feeling lighter, but it’s fading. Think one session per year is my current limit.

I went gym then came home and ate pizza and chocolate.

Someone I know is going to Bulgaria for a day trip this coming Friday. I could tag along with him or I could stay home and rest. My general state is just tired. I have a break coming but won’t be travelling home.

So far there's been a lot of angst in said poems. Maybe now it's time to start injecting some of that humor into my poems, thanks for the idea!

I know just where to start....

Hugs, Lemon. You could look at it this way, pizza contains all the food groups = healthy! Right?

I bought the cheap multi pack pizza today which was a mistake. I need serious help 😂. I bought multivitamins so can’t be that deficient and have apples in my fridge I haven’t eaten for more than two weeks. My usual breakfast is coffee with Nutella on bread. I do cereal a lot for dinner.

ArtieTheSequal · Apr 13, 2024 at 07:59 PM

It seems like every time I buy apples, that happens. I love apples, so it doesn't make sense, but they always seem to just sit there and get mushy. Bananas, oranges, berries, whatever else, always get eaten but the apples sit.

Possible trigger:

Will Israel's violations of international law now spark a world war?

I go through food phases-I like repetition so I bought them when I was having an apple a day. Then went off them for no reason. If you also keep them in the fridge they last much longer. I had some from december I ate around two months later. They didn’t go bad. My fridge at that point was over run by Ice from the freezer compartment so I think that really helped.

Maybe cut them up next time and freeze so they don’t go to waste then add to hot porridge with maple syrup or honey?

It’s 3am now. I should go to sleep but when I checked twitter I had 105 new posts in under five mins.

Ive been doing chores up the yin yang this afternoon!

Unpacking amazon deliveries, chopping icebergs in half so they fit in my mini-fridge

, wearing my abdominal supporter so i dont get a backache and start whining and stop working, eating lo carb, and just took my pee medicine to get things going.

I have not been this productive in over twenty years, no foolin.

Now if i could just find my stupid everything bagel seasoning that i ordered months ago and put away in a safe spot.

Well done Una. You’ve been doing brilliantly.

How come you have a mini fridge and not a normal or smaller one?

Have you heard of the trick of ordering more and then you’ll end up finding the old one?

unaluna · Apr 14, 2024 at 03:12 PM

Cuz my hoard is such that apartment management cannot get the old fridge out and a new one in. so i have 3 little ones. Full of hard boiled eggs and lettuce. And baby cukes and insulin pens. Everything else i eat is shelf stable. Oatmeal, beans, nuts, canned tuna and salmon, dressing single-serve packets which help with portion control. Problem is, sometimes the devil sneaks in chocolate

I know you’ve mentioned the hoarding before, but I always thought it was a joke. Sorry I didn’t realise it was serious before. Perhaps there are services available that could help even though you have got a system in place.

Chocolate is a small joy in the world, which we need more of but prices do keep rising though.
