The FastDay Forum

I was thinking of Penny's post (about the chaterbox) and that reminded me of a post there was on a forum I am in (about cats, the forum). Every week there is a post where everybody can talk about anything, even if it doens't have anything to do with a particular post. The right translation is "mood of the day" but I thought that thoughts would be a better idea

So here I am..... My thoughts of the day, excited and frustrated. Excited because my OH come back from the weekend tonight and frustrated because my mum is still in bed after 3 weeks. Let me tell you the excited part is much more stronger

Good week to all

I would like to feel excited and engaged by Christmas merriment, just as soon as I can breathe properly and stop wheezing. A pox on this cold :0.

@Manderley I can feel your excitement
Glad he's back in your arms

@Azureblue sorry you're still suffering

My thoughts for today are Positive ones for my much needed fast today My feelings/mood for today well I'm well motivated and a little on a high really that's the best way to describe how I feel Sue

Nice thread Manderley. I'm a bit hung over this morning so I can't get my brain to process a single thought. It is around, "how can I get through my yoga lesson this morning, fast and prepare for another party tomorrow". Maybe the word is 'pensive'.

also Cautious @rawkaren Sue

all this gets to much in the silly season but at least for us on this WOL we do better than most "dieters" coz we
can/do fast willingly the next day

Went to osteopath today, lovely young professional who has really helped me survive some back pain issues and turn around things, now more robust and mostly no pain. So after my visit today felt so whacked and emotional. A lovely long walk with OH and the dogs restored my spirits with encouragement from OH on how I was powering up the hill due to there being less of me. Used to have to stop gasping for breath up a particular hill, today still a steep hill though laboured up it but I didn't stop!!

So a day with weird moments but generally now feeling very positive and hey I fasted too

Hmmmm thoughts..... I' m like @Sue.Q today..cautiously optimistic about life.

....glad to be fasting as got tum ache after cheesecake yesterday..BUT can smell the buttered toast my daughter is eating ! Which is giving my brain a bit of a mixed message..
.." Youre glad to be fasting and resting".
".....No youre not, you want toast"
"..No you don't,that would make your tum feel worse" ..and so on and so forth!

My thoughts at the moment:- Must get off the forum and get my Christmas cards written

I would say its got to be 'Satisfied' and a second one of 'irritated' for today.
Satisfied that I finally have got around to cobbling together a fold away dining table so we something to eat Christmas dinner off. It wobbles a little (to be sorted later) and it is ugly as its made from scrap wood (a table cloth will sort that), but its not going to fall down and its waxed to make it waterproof.

I'm irritated that in the making of said dining table I managed to snap my bandsaw, saw belt. Luckily its not an expensive machine so the belt isn't too expensive, but I won't be able to get a new one till after Christmas.

I am fed up but excited. I am fed up as my coccyx is still very sore after my fall, and my stinking cold is not moving. On the brighter side I am going this evening to see two of my grandchildren in their school Christmas concert, I know I will enjoy it and have a few tears.

As usual with us Nessie, snap and snap!

I'm really hungry & can't get the thought of bacon butties out of my head

The beginning of a new week for me after a very odd week last week. Looking forward to Christmas now - and a bit of calm at home with family. And a different job in the new year, although not the one I wanted ...

Looking forward to wearing my new boots, skirt and tights (thanks Gillymary for the idea!) and also buying / trying more dresses and skirts

@Silverdarling SD i am really looking forward to the boots,skirt/ tights scenario some time next year!
So fed up constantly wearing trousers coz of my trunky legs!
Glad you at least have a job,but sorry its not what you wanted..but i guess it means you havent been made redundant which has gotta be the best news this Christmas...clink clink with imaginary glasses of fizz!

Another thought for the day is 'tahnk you for telephones'. I phoned a local tool supplier and he had my bandsaw blade in stock, so I can carry on sorting out my kitchen tomorrow.
