'The principal showed us around and got lost.'
Brilliant! Glad you're excited about your new job.

I had been happier the last two days. My mornings followed the same pattern for those two. Perhaps there is a correlation.
Up at 5am. 6am gym. Chocolate croissant 🥐 from Lidl. Sitting for 5 mins in the park eating the croissant. Coming home before 8am. Google maps says I live three mins away from the gym by walking. So that makes it easier to get to. I have been doing the gym thing 5/7 days a week, since I started again, but I’m not fussy about what I eat or count calories.

The good old days of being excited. Did you also read Artermis Fowl? That was a book I judged by its cover. Didn’t pick it because it was the gold version. Loved that too, along with Animorphs and the Hork-Bajir Chronicles.

I comfort eat too. I try dates instead of chocolate and chew gum too. If I don’t buy the item in the first place whilst shopping, I know I’m not going to go out to buy it again. Perhaps you could try similar and see what works best for you. Just trying to become more aware of your triggers and craving moments, is also progress.

Thanks, Cake.
The last time there was actual chocolate in the house was at Easter. I'm getting better at not buying it or looking for it.
Possible trigger:
I am well aware that I struggle to identify what I am feeling, and food is a good option for making it go away quickly.

Definitely gendered expectations that women will dress up more. I have a male colleague who teaches in shorts and tshirts, but he never grew up. Look better than the students, is my rule. I will wear jeans sometimes on Fridays if it has been a long week. |

I am business casual if meeting with some admin or when teaching. IF I am just on campus for some reason or just holding office hours - I will wear shorts or jeans and sweatshirt. The students wear suits if interviewing or in a clinic with a court appearances - otherwise they dress like toddlers who have no adult supervision. Men in particular tend to do things like wear flip flops in icy winter time classes because they lost their shoes or jammy bottoms because they are saving up a semester's worth of laundry to take home for spring break or something.

I am pleased to report I tried my hand at ice cream again, chocolate this time, and with whole milk it turned out like ice cream.
Now I just have to figure out what to do with the rennet tablets in my pantry. I’m trying to go through as much of the odder foodstuffs I’ve acquired. |

The college kids I used to know would always tell me that the laundry room washers stink. There was one kid who went home weekly. (I was a local and a night student for the short time I was in college so I just took a short bus ride back and forth everyday). I don’t think that was necessarily true. I think his parents were just very well off and so they had the means to fly him back and forth weekly. The people who had no other choice than to use the provided washing machines didn’t stink.

Do you drink tea? Fruit tea can sometimes help with the cravings, or drinking milk too for me.

Thanks Cake,
Those are great tips. I drink tea, but balance issues mean I'm stuck in the kitchen with it if I make it. I've been drinking blackcurrant cordial, and that helps.

There’s also the cold infusion teas, you can get from Sainsbury’s and co. You could add them to normal water, without having to boil a kettle.
