Re: Lonely

Hey @Dreamy  yeah, I actually messaged in sick for tomorrow. Just need a bit of a reset day — things have been pretty full-on lately. I’ve got my psychologist appointment at 3pm, then I’ll probably just take it easy after that

 

Sounds like you had a nice, steady day today though. Walking the dog and doing a puzzle sounds like a good way to unwind. What kind of dog do you have? I reckon I’d get about ten pieces into a puzzle before losing patience.

 

You got much planned for tomorrow?

@Stuart9726 nothing wrong with calling in sick, it sounds like a reset day is very much needed. Hope the psychologist appointment goes ok for you, taking it easy after is a great idea 😊.

 

It was an easy going day as far as things I did which was nice. I have a Labrador, I'll tag you in a pic of him 😊. Haha oh the puzzle I'm doing is a challenge one of stitch, it's tricky but I enjoy that and it means I have to focus more on it which is helpful for me 😊.

 

I don't have any plans for tomorrow other than trying to make some phone calls. 

Re: Lonely

@Stuart9726 Oh I’m the opposite - I prefer the PS5 haha. Doing reruns of Baldurs Gate 3 at the moment

Re: Lonely

@Dreamy Ahh Labradors are great dogs — always full of energy but such good natured goofballs. What colour’s yours. I have a staffy, very lazy boy. 😁

That puzzle sounds like serious concentration material! I’ve got the patience of a gnat, so I’d probably end up losing a few pieces halfway through.

I get what you mean about it helping you focus though — it’s nice having something that forces your brain to slow down.

Good luck with those phone calls tomorrow. Are they social calls or the boring kind we all put off? 😅

Re: Lonely

@SleeplessRaven I definitely have my moments with the PS5. I drift towards the Elder scrolls or Fallout when on there. 

What's Baldur's gate? Don't think I I ow that one?

@Stuart9726 my boy is black, he's such a good boy with the perfect amount of both charm and cheekiness 😂. Awww staffy's are cute 😊.

 

It's definitely serious concentration material but in a good way, most of the time anyway 😂.

 

Ahhh it's those boring phone calls, the ones that we put off for as long as we possibly can 😂. I already had one phone call come in this morning while I was on my walk. 

 

How's the morning been for you so far? 

Re: Lonely

@Stuart9726 Oh yeah Elder Scrolls and Fallout both are epic. Baldurs Gate is  dungeons and dragons in a video game. Literally, with the dice rolls and turn based combat and everything. It’s a lot of fun, deep storyline etc.

Gaming and gardening sound fun!! @Stuart9726 

What games have you been playing? And what veggies have you been growing?

It sounds like your garden would be a beautiful space to relax. Do you have any photos you feel comfortable sharing? 🤩

PS: @GezzaP loves gardening too!
