How Was Your First Day Of Level 2
201 posts, 17 members
The first one is always the hardest lisa! Whatever you do will be an honor to her and itll help your heart too. Time certainly doesn't heal, and sometimes it doesn't even make it easier. It sucks.
I often find myself wondering if my first two would be anything like my current child, but she is my dream rainbow and i wouldnt trade her for the world, even when shes being a screaming brat hahahaha
Love your traditions Trudi. Very sweet. Plus who can say no to chocolate cake and wine anyway? Xx

Yeah meaningful and appropriate traditions made a big difference for me in coming to terms with things. The first anniversary of dads passing was horrible because my idiot mind kept taking me back to things I'd rather permanently forget. It's def gotten less sharply painful in the years since but it will always hurt.
I think that's the thing with grief.... you never really get over it, you just learn to co-exist with it and manage it so it isn't all consuming. xx
on another note, I made the most insanely delicious pinwheel scones today! I remembered your pic of the scroll bread Lisa but decided to make a half batch of savoury pinwheels instead. Used the Nadia Lim recipe, which has cheese and herbs in the dough as well as the filling, and also added some of my mum's homemade courgette relish to the filling. SO good. I've just pre-made the next two nights dinner (macaroni cheese with bacon and onion) and so that will get baked tomorrow and reheated on Tuesday. Tonight is spaghetti bolognese and leftover apple crumble.
Thank god I'm doing so much exercise or I'd be rolling through level 2 lol

Yeah definitely Trudi. It is always interestimg to think of these things, i myself had an older sister but admittedly i dont think of her often, but i wonder what it wouldve been like to have a sister!
I read somewhere grief is like a lake. At first thats all that exists, everywhere is water. Then gradually, the shore, trees, the world, appears around the lake.
sometimes you cant see it, sometimes you can. Sometimes you have to sit on the shore and paddle in the water, other times youre stranded in the middle and you cant see the shore anymore. Sometimes you take a friend with you cos you cant be there alone.
I really liked it :-) (sorry for the novel my gals!)

I still haven't gone into any stores other than New World. The thought of weird rules really does weird me out. I was standing in the queue at NW this morning and the checkout operater snapped at me to move back a bit (I was more than 1 mtr behind the person in front) and while she was saying it some staff walked past in a tight group chatting with no masks or anything on. I can't lie, I was seriously irritated. I really have no loyalty to these places any longer.
That would have annoyed me a little too Maree
That's great timing for yoyou Kmart Order Trudi. I'm waiting on warehouse and Briscoes. Been 2 weeks and tracking doesnt even show it's passed pickup stage. Stoked about that Hoody coming soon too :)
Lisa I started Keto about 2 years ago and after 9 months I moved to being low carb. It's been great. No more baked beans and toast for me

yeah i've got a couple hanging around in limbo.... bit frustrating when they change status forward and then backwards again!
no idea when that hoody will arrive, and i wanna know how long the sale is on for but they haven't answered me in email or on FB, argh.
I used my airpoints over the weekend bc i'm paranoid they were somehow going to lose value so i got a box of Akarua wines this morning (just 3 bottles) hehe.

Wow, that's a bit uncalled for especially if you were already following the rules Maree.
Courier deliver has definitely slowed down but i'm not too worried as long as it's been dispatched. Still waiting on confirmation has even been sent and it's been two weeks.
Don't like baked beans I can eat them but I choose not too lol.
Re cars: called mechanic today and they told me to see and auto electrician. Have got that booked for next week..thinking it's going to an expensive job *sigh* cars!

Lisa I haven't tried making many treats as I tend to avoid the temptation of snacking etc. I have made keto bliss balls which are great and at Xmas did a really nice lemon cheesecake. Savoury wise I've made keto tortillas and pizza and scones. I have 99sec microwave bread every morning for breakfast and my indulgence is the healtheries sugar free milk choc
I'm bringing you shopping with me next time Lisa lol. We were having a big chat at work about buying local this morning. The general consensus is that Oamaru is not a friendly place to shop. I hasten to add that The Warehouse staff are always really great tho. I think I need to start calling these places back with feedback from now on. Maybe their management don't actually know what customers think. The other thing is that loads of people have changed from NW to Countdown because NW don't do online shopping here. Gotta move with the times ...
