Everstorm

I did go and it was completely fine. I swam 1km with no negative effects other than a dry throat. It's a perfect spring day today. I am wearing a big, formal damask skirt for no reason other than it makes me happy while I read a book on the garden bench. Bliss.

Sea snail offering! Yes, the "foot" looks like a tongue. In fairness to myself, it looks like a tongue in the reference photo too lol

Well done fitting in all that exercise. No wonder you didn't have time to read

You can doooo it!

How are things in Stardew Valley?

What a fabulous vacation!

Sounds like an upright row if elbows are bent and out: Cheering for you to meet your goals this week!

Enjoy Cancun!

So cool to meet an expert in the sport! Fingers crossed you can keep a job with your company until you are ready to leave.

Well, I was supposed to be limiting sugar and eating veggies twice a day, neither of which are really contraindicated for illness. It's mostly that I have had a depressive episode (which started before the illness) and haven't had the bandwidth to do unpleasant things. I seem to be heading out of it now, which is nice. I am feeling enough recovered from the cold to consider swimming tomorrow. I'll make the call at that time. I made soup last night and ate the leftovers this morning, so that's veggies starting to get back on track. No sugar at breakfast, but I make no promises about the rest of the day. I think the goal was unrealistic yo start with and I am just not up to pursuing it right now.

Seconding all of this

I might have to look into that!

*wants* How do you use them? In drinks or something? Good series! I really liked it.

Oh no, that must be so stressful! Do you have any other job leads still open?

I'm looking forward to getting my hands on the full copy next month! In the meantime, I found out that the author has an app with exercises that correspond to the ideas in the book and I have been working through those. It's quite eye-opening to see how much of my behavior works against my values and how it all stems from backlash over the failure to find happiness 24/7. It was part of school when I lived in Texas, but not in my current state 🤷‍♀️ I'm not dead. Annoying sore throat has turned into annoying throat cough, but I still don't feel all that bad physically. GMB Elements 6/7 done today. Just need 1 more in week 5! Skipped the swim for week 4 because stoopid infectious disease protocols. Can't be helped. Maybe possibly could do 2 in week 5 to still hit 7, but we'll have to see how it goes. Diet goals...what diet goals? Do not recall having such a thing... 👀
