Hey Indra
No probs with the support...you are most welcome!. That is a good point you make re: your boys, i.e. you needing to be mentally alert and 100% switched on. May I ask, just out of curiosity, Would you be on meds if it were practical? Please ignore this question if I'm being too personal!
So, you need other outlets to vent, distract and chill. I watch RBT and find it helps, lol. Something enjoyable about seeing others in strife? (just kidding). Also, what helps me is watching the footy, afternoon naps, coke (cola) and chippies and movies at night, music, would you believe studying!, time with friends...What about you? No time to chill??
Believe it or not, I have fought for women's rights since my youth lol. but never had a bra to burn. Haha! I remember reading Erica Jong's "Fear of Flying" when I was around 20 (trying to learn more about women you see) and it was a revelation! Always have been fascinated by the feminist perspective.
Good luck with Miniman's mini football. Sounds like a great past time for him. Tucker him out so you can rest a while! HaHa! Tell me, is it based on Aussie Rules?, Union? or Rugby League? or is it some combination of them?
Thanks a lot for your support! It turned out I wasn't that nervous on my visit to the Men's Shed. I just refused to worry. The Men's Shed centred around craft activities which isn't my strong suite BUT! there was fishing, computers and fundraising that I could possibly join in.
I like English Breakfast tea too! Very nice. Peppermint eh? I used to like chamomille - tres relaxant. Green tea IS bitter to taste, I just enjoy it's after effects. After a few cups there's this glow...What I do get into is the Lattes, and lately, after a hot day, an ice cold Mocha is unreal!
Must say I am a bit sad about Prince passing away. I've liked his music for years,...only 57. I remember getting his "Musicology" album 12 years ago now and how much I liked it. He had so many great songs/albums like "Purple Rain" and "Sign of The Times". A big loss but Wait! there is talk of there being new songs he left behind! "Prince Resurrection!"...lol.
Your gardening sounds down to earth lol. Weeding? I'm with Miniman, YUK!! In truth, my father used to spend hours in his yard removing unwanted plants (aka weeding!) He swore by gardening's therapeutical benefits which often led to an afternoon nap! which he also swore by.
Take care and all the Best. Here's to many more good days! Good luck Miniman!
