I was seriously living on coffee and Advil for almost a week. Occasionally a scone. I'm still working my way back to a normal size meal in a single sitting. Fwiw, I think eating your feelings is probably the healthier option.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I hope surgery went nice and easy and that you don't have much pain one the local wears off.
I just want to take my anti-anxiety meds and crash out. Today has NOT been fun.

I miss eating my feelings. It's my normal coping mechanism. The food aversion is frustrating.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Maybe you mean grits with shrimp?
Ah, thank you. Good to have that resolved.
Enjoy your day off, Connie!
Gah, aurelia, a week is a long time for that! I'm glad you can eat again.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I had three mandarins, apple slices, walnuts, slivers of baked ham, swiss, and cheddar cheeses, and half a banana tossed together without dressing for supper last night. Twas yum. We demolished a vat of pintos cooked with the ham for dinners last week. And there's a vat of vegebarleybeef soup on the stove, aroma-torture till it's done.
Of course I inhaled a half-pound bag of M&Ms--peanut though, so, protein. And we had ham-egg-and-cheese biscuits for supper one night, because ham. We seem to do better when there are serving-sized gladware boxes of beans, lentils, soup, etc. on hand. Rarer defaulting to a handful of chips and candy.
I should probably have a dishpan full of salad, at some point.

I really need to get a slow cooker so I can make things over the weekend like the balsamic roast beef I found. I've got a freezer which I should use for more than fish and pizza.

I want to send Christmas cards, but the generic store ones are mostly stupid and expensive ($15-20 for 8 cards??) and I feel dumb sending cards with photos of me or that I took...it somehow feels way more awkward as a single person than as a couple or family. Like, photos I took is a little too "look how cool I am I went cool places!" --and because I'm always the one taking photos all my photos of me are selfies.

Hallmark stores tend to have boxes of fairly decent cards, and it seems like it worked out to about $1/card the last time I bought some.

Whereas I'd love to receive something like that.
I try to buy cards during the after Christmas sales to use the following year. I LOVE sending cards. If anyone here wants one and you don't think I have your snail mail address, you are welcome to hit up my profile address.
Which reminds me, I need to find the cards I stashed away last year. I THINK I know where they are.
