I just googled elfbar600. It looks pretty nifty but i ain't keen on all those fruit flavours. I am a spearmint kind of person myself. Also, the fact that it only contains 600 puffs and then goes dead would stress me out majorly o_o

I need my battery powered vape!!!!

Also, i am tired. How are you this morning, Beckie??

Hi Cacoethes, hi Zurg. How are you?

Hey zurg!
Yep that's totally understandable!

I'm great thanks! Though not looking forward to another boring ass day!
How are you apart from tired?

Hey tamo! How are you?

I'm ok. Just waiting for LFT so i can get my meds.

Coolio!

Just had blood taken again. Its been every day since last Tuesday!!! My poor vein. Don't know what I'll do when ol' reliable gives up on me!
My sodium is low again :plain:

You sound very unwell :( I tested positive for covid.

Nah I'm good!

Oh no! That's not good! Are you feeling ok?

Oh noes Tamo!!! The plague seems to catch us all eventually :-(
I recommend lots of tea, snacks and naps!!! At least you have an excuse to stay at home and avoid people and people-y places ;-)

I hope your vein survives, Beckie!!! Is it sore??? You'd Think it would be after constant blood samples for a while….???
Against boredom i recommend getting into all sorts of shenanigans. Like putting your clothes on the wrong Way and see how long it takes before someone figures it out. And coffee!!! And vaping!!! And Facebook!!! Actually, just carry on like normally because that's basically my advise…

I agree with zurg!

Nah not sore. There's so much scar tissue there now that i actually don't feel it at all when they do bloods!
That's pretty much what i do anyway
And wind up the staff of course! XD

I felt horrible yesterday but today is better. I love excuses to isolate!

I'm glad you're feeling better!

I hope you'll be on the mend quickly Tamo. You don't have to let anyone know though…. You can just keep self isolating if you prefer to stay at home!!!!

And Beckie, it's the staff's own fault that they are being played. They should offer proper entertainmemt or legit activities so people wouldn't get bored.

It totally is!
And they're so easy to wind up too XD
There have actually been no groups on today!
They just told me to watch tv!
I think i would be more bored watching crappy daytime tv!

Morning everyone!

Hello Cacoethes, how are you?

I'm good thanks! Apart from being bored af!

You?

Still feeling sorry for myself with covid.

Is there anything you do at home that you can do?

Awww :(

I could watch stuff on the ipad but i really can't focus!!!

Could you do mindfulness, meditation, something like that? I won't pretend it makes you feel better but it's a good way to spend some time!

I can't sit still long enough! Lol!
And I'm not a huge fan of that kind of stuff anyway. It irritates me!

Hello everyone!
I agree with cacoethes, can’t sit long enough to meditate. Off lately all I’ve been thinking about is of dark chocolate Easter eggs instead of doing anything productive. But, no regrets we all get to have our days right?

Absolutely!

I've gone off Easter eggs for some reason. I used to eat loads way before Easter but I think I've had 2 a while ago and stopped.

I love a good easter egg!
Maybe you overdid it? I know if i eat something loads i won't touch that thing again for ages!!!

But that was a whole Easter ago I was eating them loads. I am trying to eat less snacks so it's not a problem anyway although talking about it is making me want one!

How is your day going Beckie?

Fair enough!
Haha! Same :p

So so bored!!!
I tried watching some things on YouTube that are like 3 mins per clip and i can't even focus on them!!!
Maybe i have adhd?

Morning everyone!

Good morning, how are you?

I'm good thanks!
I had a decent ward round for a change!
1 hour escorted leave today then if that goes well 1 hour unescorted 3x a week then home leave for a week next Thursday!

How are you?

Oh yay, Beckie!!! That is awesome news :D

I could easily devour an easter egg right now…. But that would require me going to the grocery store to buy one and i reaaaally can't be arsed with that!!!

Thank you!!! :-D

Ah yeah that's effort!
I may get an easter egg on my morrisons walk today!

Great news Beckie!

I have a craving for Minstrels but I'm also trying to avoid snacks as much as I can so I didn't get any. Now I'm sad.

Thank you! :-D

I love minstrels!!!
Haven't had them in forever!

Nooooo Linds!!!! Avoiding snacks is a type of self punishment that no one can condone!!!! I say give in to all your snack-ish desires!!!!!

I've been out and i got myself an easter egg!!!

I'm trying to be healthy Kat, don't encourage me!

What egg did you get Beckie?

I got a creme egg one!
I love creme eggs!

I hope you enjoy it.

I prefer the malteasers ones and the chocolate on the egg tastes really good too.

Mmmmm… Easter eggs!!!! But still not enough cravings to go to the shop. It's raining too. And cold. And windy. Definetely too much effort!!!!

I hope you enjoy your creme egg, Beckie!!!

Linds, being healthy still allows for snacks in moderate amounts ;-)

Moderate amounts! I think that's a lie!

That does sound like too much effort Kat. Maybe you can get one another day.

To be brutally honest, i'm not really a sucker for chocolate. But crisps on the other hand….. and cake!!!!!

Oooh i could really go for some crisps right now!

Crisps and cake are good too. Do you have favourites Kat?

You're going be stuck with that craving now Beckie, until you can get some crisps!

I knoooow! D:

It's a bit like having a song stuck in your head. Which has just reminded me of the avocado song. Great!

Ahahahaha!!!
Haven't thought about that song in forever!

An entire song about avocados???!!!?? How utterly fascinating!!!!

My favourite crisps are sour cream and onion. Favourite cake is carrot cake. Mmmmm…. I could eat some snacks now. Except i can't because i had a huge piece of lasagna for dinner and i'm still full :P

Beckie, go and and pester the staff until they provide some crisps!!!! That is not an unreasonable request. A craving for crisps is serious business

Sour cream and chive is the best pringles flavour!
I'm currently craving salt and vinegar!!!
Carrot cake is also awesome! I don't think i have a favourite cake. All cakes are great!

Haha! I don't think they'd react too well to that because it's notes time!
I *could* order from morrisons but I'm trying not to spend anymore money!!

Pah!!! Notes time!!!! It's clearly evening snack time and that should be respected and held in highest regard;-)

It totally should!!!
But nurses really have the wrong priorities!
