  • What Do You Do While Waiting

    I have been using my waiting time better. If I have to wait 3 minutes for my food to cook, I do a small chore or some stretches. If I have to wait 10 or 15 minutes, I can do more exercise or a bigger chore. Waiting is a good time to burn calories and be active or to breathe deeply and relax. It is not a good idea to snack in the kitchen…

    • Getting Answers in the Mocern Era

      I have shared my CharGPT experience and I have gotten so many answers to problems that I needed both huge and small. Medical, Family, Taxes, Budget, Motivation. Hair, and time management. I asked about my lifeless dried, damaged hair. Old age was not the answer. The simple answer was to stop the abuse with heat, and bad products. Like most I…

      • @roseinbloom I find chatGPT useful and very user friendly. But it still raises my anxieties. Like anything used wisely it has lots of positives. But lonely people, older people & less savy people, can be very vulnerable. And not everyone checks onto the advice given. I like to investigate everything and start from a sceptical place.

    • Prevention Worth a POUND...

      My thought for today is that prevention is always a good idea and can be practiced by almost everyone. Basic health comes first . I went to sleep, woke up too early, and went back to sleep, I woke up three hours later. A friend told me to do that, and when I heard it, it stuck in my head. It sounds totally obvious, but it was not. I have…

      • I have a comment to make. I was ignoring most all of the tips a lot of the time. I also learned more habits that worked for me. Coffee and alcohol after about noon did not work. Coffee in my favorite beverage.

        • @roseinbloom I love the list. Most of it pretty easy to do. Apart from manage worries. Thats a big one for me as an overthinker. Thats another list for me. And I need to use with the serenity prayer. Doing what I can asap. Those things that cause the intrusive thoughts that keep you awake. My final battle is acceptance. Im not good at that…

        • @roseinbloom Enjoy your sunshine Rose.

          • Rose it’s always been my belief that prevention is better than cure. As for sleep I do have 8 hours sleep but it’s a broken 8 hours the first interruption of sleep is generally because I need the bathroom the second interruption is deliberate when I set the alarm for 4 AM to put my storage heater on and I stay up for an hour, then go back to…

              • I accidentally went to photos on this site and I have about 4600 and I manage to post the quote on the left to my message. Amazing. I already have a photo of Marie that she posted today. I may try it again to see if I can repeat the process. 😲

                • @roseinbloom I am glad that your cheesecakes were a big hit Rose. You must be a fantastic cook.
