Jims Cafe Tuesday February 7th

[DrownedFishOnFire]

Battling my cravings in the wee hours this morning...I managed to keep it at bay with an expired protein bar, banana, a big tablespoon of peanut butter and a glass of diet pepsi. I was ready to hop in the car and zoom to the 24 hour diner for crappy food. I have no idea why it was happening but as soon I woke up......was like :eek: horrified. Good thing I didn't.

Todays beverage coffee, tea, whole milk hot chocolate or soy/almond/cashew/coconut milk hot chocolate

Biscotti, tea biscuit, cookies, and cupcakes here today!

Challenge of the day:

Be kind to yourself and others around you.

Good evening cafe, I hope you are all doing relatively well....I see the forums are busy this evening. Well done everyone for helping so many people get through their darkest hours!

I will have a glass of almond milk and I'll take one cookie as long as it's a belgian chocolate cookie. Damn you, I am craving chocolate now :P

As for the challenge I have been too kind to myself today! I had a head massage and wash and blow dry, blissssful! And I am always kind to others

Hi to all of you. Have an excellent day. View attachment 1057

 

[Witty_Sarcasm]

I like all but especially coffee :P
I am usually kind to others...even those who don't deserve it. I feel they need it the most.

My first class of the day was canceled as I had expected it would be because my professor was sick. He emailed us yesterday and told us to expect it. My other class was ok. I also worked out for the third day in a row. Did upper body again today. I very much prefer lower body. I really wasn't feeling it at all today, so I headed out 15 minutes early. I've been doing about an hour a day, but I just wasn't feeling quite up to it. I have a test to study for in my child development class, and later tonight the rugby team is having a table at the school's "condom carnival" or whatever the hell it is. I'm gonna go and help/hang out, whatever it ends up being. Gonna bring my textbook and my notes so I can hopefully study at down times, too.
I'm trying to be kind to myself, but it's so difficult. Way harder than being kind to others.

Am definely in a need of hot chocolate at work.

@DrownedFishOnFire Love the cartoon! lol just the phrase "pompous water" made me laugh. (I'm a coffee fiend.)

I've been kind to myself - I didn't go out in the ice storm today. Will double-snuggle my cat tonight for "nice to others."

I loved the cartoon as well I guess I'm confused because I just love tea and equally love coffee. You just never know what's in my mug. The kindest thing I did today was find this forum and not end my life. So many people have reached out and I feel good in this moment. One day at a time.

Had an awesome time at the condom carnival. It was kind of a weird thing, but most of my favorite teammates were there at least some of the time. We got to run a game where the participants had to throw a rugby ball into a trash bag. I think we were supposed to ask questions about safe sex as part of the game too, but we kind of ignored that part. When no one was around to play the game we just tossed the ball to each other or talked. Some girls who knew a few of my teammates were hanging out at our table, and they expressed interest in being our "team moms", whatever that means. Sounds like it's a good thing. IDK. The one thing that I didn't like is that the girls were asking the guys on the team they didn't know what their names were, but they didn't ask me. Maybe they didn't realize I'm a part of the team too I got to eat candy and take home the extras since we didn't hand it all out. By the end of the event, I was pretty hyper and just running around acting like an idiot. Plus I hit my teammate's girlfriend in the head with a ball by accident. But she was okay and nobody got mad at me.

Now I really have to study. Blah.

 

[Acanthi]

I'd like a cupcake and a posh tea please!

I like today's challenge @DrownedFishOnFire. Will definitely try to do my best

 

[WatchingPlanesFlyBy]

Tea freak to the max. Can't live without it and I can't imagine what kind of life I lived before it. Brewing some right now

OCCASIONALLY (once or twice a month) I get a caffeine crave tea can't satisfy and buy a latte at the local Starbucks.

Challenge? It's no problem being nice to others but being kind to myself? It's a work in progress.
