My winter holiday tradition is a box of chocolate covered cherries, cuz thats what my dad would buy and share with us. They still taste the same. When he was a young teenager, my brother would buy a can of cinnamon rolls from the corner store and make them for a holiday breakfast and was that a sugar rush, plus completely unusual.

I have to go to a bridal/baby shower today. I hate to sound so negative but I really hate these functions. My sister is getting married (again) next month and she had a baby 3 months ago so it’s kind of like a luncheon to celebrate her new union and the arrival of her child. I had no plans on throwing anything-the other girls in the wedding suggested some sort of gathering so as matron of honor and godmother of the newish baby I played along. And now the day is here and I don’t want to be bothered with it or maybe I just don’t want to “people” and also spend unnecessary money during the holiday season.

So sorry you have to deal with this, Jersey.
Is there any chance you can decompress afterwards?

Jersey - well its hard to find ones with a creamy filling, but there is a syrupy filling kind that is less expensive but somehow more fun. The packaging is different and there are much fewer in a box, but yes the cherries will still shock you. Youre so funny, i didnt realize they DO kinda choke you until you said that!
My mother' favorite candy bar was Chunky. I think they disappeared for a while but they might be back. I hear you on the wedding stuff. My brother's third wedding had to be repeated a week later because the license had expired. I was like, you are not wasting ANOTHER of my Saturdays! He was like, he HAVE to be there! I was like, yeah... no. |

I'm not really a fan of those either. Didn't really want to have them for my own wedding, then baby, but I gave in. I just insisted that I be alerted to the date in advance--I didn't want a surprise (as an introvert, I do better being able to prepare for social situations, especially one where I'd be the center of attention). I was informed about the family and friends baby showers (thanks, H!). I figured out the bridal shower because my best friend at the time was in town and being weird about some plans we'd made to go somewhere (out to lunch maybe?). Like, "Actually, let's not do that. Let's just go to [our friend] L's house instead." I was right. I did insist that we not play any stupid games. Hope the event is bearable and goes well. You're being a good sibling organizing it. At least all the focus should be on your sister. |

Ugh, sorry Jersey. Hope it goes smoothly. And that it's (hopefully) over by now. Hugs.

Thanks guys. Lost, thank you. I did decompress when I got home and stayed in the quiet for a little while with no TV on or anything.
Una.. Chunky bars are back. I saw them in the local convenience store. I told my sister I would not participate in or attend a third wedding so I hope this second one is it. She said she wouldn’t ever get married a third time of this was to not work out. LT-. I didn’t have a bridal shower or any sort of bachelorette party. I was adamant about not having anything and people complied with that request. At least you knew about yours. Being mentally prepared does make it easier. |

I have been obsessed with the song "all i've ever known". Hope you enjoyed the show. It sounds like you had a productive day! The grocery haul is a big win for ensuring you're eating well. Most importantly, it's inspiring that you've decided to embrace living your best, most joyful life. You’re making moves for happiness and comfort, and that’s inspiring.

Man, i have just been sleeping! Late this morning, and a lot this afternoon. Oh i just remembered i didnt have coffee this morning, just soup. Well that will do it. Although i was having this feeling today that my body was finally returning from vaccination reaction land and coming back to my control.

Just an idea, perhaps space out your vaccinations a little bit when you book them.

Hi Couch,
I hope today is being kind to you. I had a call with the helpline today, and didn't realise that I didn't hang up properly. Hoping that I didn't tie the line up for a long time, but my contact hung up on her end...

Is the shower also yearly with the annual appointment? It's time you got a private doctor/ nurse for the jabs.

I booked an impulsive flight back home to London after talking to someone who was telling me that he was leaving on Saturday. I decided to tag along with him. Now I'm having second thoughts and feeling anxious about leaving. I still haven't started the 6 month thing. Still waiting around for paperwork to come through first.
The flight was £45. After we reach the city I won't be staying with him and he will travel further along by himself. (No sharing hotel rooms or anything like that.)

I’m sure the helpline staff have ways to manage situations like that, so try not to worry too much. It’s good that your contact was able to end the call on her side. How did you feel after speaking with her today?
