The 'I need a distraction' thread.

I have both green and red grapes. Yummy. I'm really into my fruit just now, trying to be healthy.

It's good Beckie that you are enjoying it. It's inspiring too.

[Cacoethes]

Lovely! I prefer red grapes but green are good too!
That's great that youre getting into fruit now! :)

Thanks :)
Think I'll head off to bed now. Got to be up in the actual morning tomorrow! Lol!
Night night and sleep well :)

[Sketchy]

Good night and sleep well. :)

[chinahorse]

Morning all. 4 hours sleep is not enough!

It has hearts and flowers and swirls on it beckie.

Morning Lillie, I'm sorry you didn't sleep well.
What are you up to today?

[chinahorse]

Today is my busy day. I have firm, work group, food group, art therapy, teas and then the 6 hour journey home.

How about yourself?

[[Luna]]

Sounds extremely busy. I hope it all goes well. Can imagine it will be a strain on your body. Do you have painkillers and stuff?

I want to finish my assignment. I see my support worker later and need to go to the shop.

[chinahorse]

I will have to buy some painkillers they aren't big on giving you them as TTAs.

Your day is busy too Luna I hope it goes well.

[[Luna]]

Yes, make sure you get some painkillers. That reminds me I need to take my meds. I'm in quite a lot of pain already. Not looking forward to going out later.

[chinahorse]

Does your pain ease up if you move around a bit? Mine can sometimes. Like obviously not my foot though.

[Cacoethes]

Morning guys!
You were all up early!

I hope today goes well Lillie and Luna! Definitely plan some rest time and do something nice for yourself.

I'm off to zumba gold in a while. Rather nervous!

[[Luna]]

It seems to ease a bit if I do some walking about but if I do too much then it makes it worse. It's difficult trying to find the balance.

[[Luna]]

Morning Beckie, what the heck in Zumba gold?

[Cacoethes]

Take it easy Luna! X

zumba gold is zumba but for older adults and beginners so it's low impact.
It's a dance fitness thing.

[[Luna]]

Sounds fun, hope you have a good time! You're doing a lot of exercise at the moment, do you feel better for it?

[Cacoethes]

Thanks! :)
Yes I feel so much better for it! I come out of exercise classes absolutely buzzing! Must be the whole endorphins thing! :)

[[Luna]]

That's great! Yes, the high afterwards is almost worth the pain during it haha

[Cacoethes]

Haha!! Yep! I always take the feeling of 'omg I'm going to die!!!' As a good thing because it means I'm working hard!!
At zumba gold now. I'm the youngest here by probably about 30 years :p
It's a good low impact class!
And yet again, they're all standing around in groups and I'm just here like Lolz.

[[Luna]]

Oh dear! I hope it goes well. Let us know how you get on!

[Cacoethes]

It was really good! I can really feel my confidence building already!
I never thought I'd say I like exercise but I do now!
I hated the gym because it was boring but the classes are fun!
And I did end up talking to people in the end! :)

What are you up to today Luna?
