Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Best of luck 🙂 studying is great because it can be distracting and take your mind off life's problems for a bit and you learn something new at the same time. I had started the application and topic research part of my phd during my break up last year and it distracted me from my sadness

Good morning  *stretches arms

How is your PhD coming along @Anna88

Morning everyone ⛾

[Former-Member]

Hello @outlander
Anything on the cards for today?

[Faith-and-Hope]

Good morning @Former-Member @outlander @Anna88 ..... anyone else around .... 👋☕️💕

Certanly is coffee time .....

I am hoping for just such a distraction @Anna88 .....easier if things were settled around me, but you can’t always (or keep) waiting for that to happen.  This door appears to be opening, and hubby is supporting it, perhaps with the thought that I am too lacking in my own projects, which is why so much of my focus is on him being “ill”.  

Pits exactly the same perspective, but from opposite directions.  While I can’t bring his illness closer to diagnosis, keeping busy is healthier than just sitting around in the face of it all, and when that distraction is something you are passionate about and really enjoy, it offers a wonderful reprieve.

Yes, How is your PhD going ?

Hi @Former-Member not alot today. Mostly just paying bills groceries and the horses this afternoon
What about you?

Hi @Faith-and-Hope are you at your coffee shop this morning?

[Faith-and-Hope]

Not yet @outlander .....

Doctor’s apt this morning with D2 for a Companion Card, so I had better get a wriggle on.  Shower is next .....

[outlander]

Do you mind me asking what a companion card is? I havent heard of that before @Faith-and-Hope

[Former-Member]

Hoping to do something other than housework @outlander

I agree @Faith-and-Hope focussing too much on MI is not healthy for us. Having meaningful activities to do, including some that involve giving and receiving makes for much better health outcomes for ourselves.

Vacuum cleaner awaits, want to have my stuff done as I suspect lunch out might be
a possibility.

[outlander]

Hope you can get out for lunch @Former-Member much better than housework thats for sure
