Good Morning Early, And Later Birds

[rowanwitch]

I will be around most of the morning so get chirping!

[Chipchopper]

Chirpy chirpy cheap cheap.......chirp!.

A warm welcome from me to you

[rowanwitch]

Ooh that dates you,     just looking out at a stunning sky,  corals, reds, purples.  The advantage of being so high up... Big horizons.  Better grab my camera

[Smowball]

Twit twoo early birds!! Another chilly one here! 

[rowanwitch]

Supposed to being the mid teens next week.  From fleece hoodies to turning off the heating in a couple of days.

Morning Smow, how are you doing these days.

[Smowball]

Morning RW. Have been better pain-wise but mentally feel much better. Learning to not be not so damn hard on myself and expect myself to do  the impossible.  Still doing my little part time online selling which I enjoy. Might not earn much but it keeps me out of trouble lol.

Hard trick to learn, it's knowing that if you do X you can't do Y, and accepting that  is even harder. 

I was recommended to look at Spoon theory to adjust my daily activity and it seems to work

The main thing is accepting you can do so much more overall if you pace yourself properly

I've been using the spoon theory for about ten years now, and it does really help, your link made me smile Rowan, as it reminded me of when I first heard about it, at a pretty low time of my life.

anyhow, good morning people. More sorting out and cleaning for us today 🙄

Morning Rowan and everyone - just a flying visit - I really must get my assignment finished

Morning Vagus, Red,

'Morning Rowan - I'm in the "later" category!  Just been making soup, some of which I'll have over the weekend and freeze the rest.  A lazy weekend ahead, watching football on TV and generally tidying up.  Enjoy the rest of your day😊

[rowanwitch]

Hi Moorea,   soup on the go here too,   too cold for much else.

[Smowball]

Ooh what soup recipes do you have?

[Moorea7]

Just quite basic soup, Smowball, for me - broth mix, carrot, turnip, leek, potato and today added some chopped red pepper. x

[rowanwitch]

Lamb, carrots, onions, leeks, peas, and butter beans, lots of mint and black pepper. Just tried some ...

Soup for me today also!!! Lots of vegs and spices. Bubbling away nicely. And I got a lovely french bagette yesterday which I shall warm. Yum.

[rowanwitch]

Sounds lovely,

I'm planning making a butternut squash and chilli soup...if I get my act together. Oh, and some turmeric golden paste for my joints. Every little bit helps.
