Hi! I hope you are well and thank you for your support.
I am doing ok going to Physical Therapy this morn. Feeling the brunt of life a bit but this to shall pass. I did the body scan
@amiablePeace77, 1. I had a strange week. First, a trouble maker at work no longer works at my place of employment. So, that is good. Second, two women that I work with decided to act strangely. One of them threw a temper tantrum and the other decided to be uncooperative. It was out of the twilight zone. Today I was doing yard work and got stung/bit (I don't know if they bit me or stung me) by wasps about 6 times. I found out I am not allergic to them so that is a good thing. And it didn't hurt as much as some people describe. I've stubbed my toe and it hurt far worse than the stings/bites. So that is the good part of it. 2. I am going to relax the rest of the day. :)
What's been the highlight of your week? My music lesson
How are you going to treat yourself in the weekend? Do nothing.
@Offmytrack
Music lessons sound like fun, what are you learning at the moment?
@amiablePeace77
Nothing. I play songs I know for her.
What's been the highlight of your week?
I printed up the short story I wrote for the first time and asked someone to read it. Now I'm nervous about her reaction.
How are you going to treat yourself in the weekend?
The usual - go to my mom's for lunch each day, watch a little TV, go for a bike ride if the weather is cooperative.
@WharfRat I can relate to you feeling nervous about your friend reading your short story. I took a creative writing class once and had to read my story out loud, it was it was terrifying! I hope that it goes well with your friend reading yours.
@adventurousBranch3786
Reading a story out loud to the class would be difficult. I had a speech class years ago which was horrible. Had a screen-writing class where we all read each others' work, too. That wasn't quite as bad.
@WharfRat
I would be nervous too, it's something special to share a self-written story. I wish you all the best 🤞.
Sounds like a great weekend! Where did you go with your bike?
@amiablePeace77
The weather and I didn't get along and I didn't get to ride. Maybe tomorrow.
Hi Ami:
The “highlight” of the week was fixing a fan that just hummed, but wouldn’t spin.
I don’t know how I will treat myself this weekend. I’m open to suggestions...
@UberRuminator
Congrats to fixing your fan! Great job.
For the next weekend, how about making it a retreat weekend with meditation, healthy food, a walk outside, maybe a warm bath and self-massage? 😊
How was this weekend, what did you do?
@amiablePeace77
The fan was a very simple fix - just had to take it apart and oil it.
I can try the meditation. Because of my medical situation, I almost always eat healthy food. I may not be able to walk, but I can sit outside if the weather is nice. Not really much of a warm bath or massage guy.
This weekend was okay. Didn’t really do too much apart from raking leaves and tinkering with the lawn mower.
Hope your weekend was more exciting.
@amiablePeace77 Hi, my highlight of the week was doctors appointment because my lab results were good from following my prescribed diet more. I hope that I can continue to do this😊. I did treat myself on Saturday to some plantains, they were so good!
@adventurousBranch3786
Hey that sounds wonderful branch! Keep it up 😊
mmmh plantains are yummy! Did you fry or steam them?
