Jim's Cafe - Wednesday - Sept 4, 2024 - love/hate

[Ash600]

What is something you hate doing? Why?

Picking up the phone when it rings or pings for an incoming text message. It feels me with dread as so often it's because either something has happened or someone has fucked up leadimg people to scream at me to sort all the shit out.

What is something you love doing? Why?

Sitting back taking a load off and just relaxing to some music without being disturbed. It's peaceful being able to shut the world out even if it is only for a short period of time.

Just one thing? Hmmm...

Ok, first thing that popped into my mind......I hate mopping floors, no explanation needed......

Right now in life I love walking in the woods, hiking, bicycling. I love watching plants grow and produce and be happy. Anything that connects me to nature, wind, movement. And I've always loved yoga.

2. You’re welcome for the tag @Dante glad you had a chance to reply. I always enjoy reading your replies and seeing you around, hope you’re well

3. @Auri - Just wanted to say happy belated birthday! I remember you’re a Virgo (same as me, my bday is in 2 days from now, the 6th lol) but didn’t remember the “exact” day. It’s the 3rd then? I will see after if you have it listed on your profile, just want to get this reply posted here lol :p Hope you’re well

One last thing, this is to ALL SFers - Hope you are all well and having a nice day today. If you are, awesome, I celebrate your happy/good day with you, and if you aren’t, I hope that you will be feeling better soon.

Regardless of which one it is (good day or not-so-good day) I also offer lots of BIG HUGS for all who are wanting them

What is something you hate doing? Why?

Working whether at the job or tasks around the house. There are just other more fun things I could be doing.

What is something you love doing? Why?

Laughing because it is a cleansing and fulfilling sense just to enjoy mirth.

Thanks for the tag @Angie

What is something you hate doing? Why? I hate being late. I always feel so stressed about it and like I'm letting people down, inconveniencing and upsetting them. And if it's a gathering or meeting or something, it can feel like everybody is staring at you if you're walking in late.
What is something you love doing? Why? I love singing. It helps me feel relaxed and get some of my emotions out, and it's just generally fun. It can be cool to learn the lyrics to new songs, too.

Thank you so much, and I hope you're having a good day too

You’re welcome, and thank you too! Ya, my day is ok I guess, trying not to feel disappointed about not doing the thing I had intended on doing, but taking the bus I’d need to take and then the waiting that is always involved with that one is truly dreadful to do on a warm day like how it is today. Will hopefully finally be able to get that bloody chore done tomorrow now lol :p

Yeah, probably best to save it for another day if it's too hot to do anything. But I hope it will be cooler tomorrow and you can do what you need to.

Thank you so much, JMG! It's nice to hear from you actually, I miss your posts - even though they are probably there, I just read the forum a tiny bit less. :p It was on the 2nd of September. I hope I'll take the time to wish it for you on the Day, but just in case.... Happy Birthday in advance! Enjoy your day, do things you love, surround yourself with people you love, think positive thoughts, you are worth it. ♡

Thanks for your kind reply Auri, and aw, you’re so welcome That was so kind of you to say you miss my posts too. Ya I don’t post much in the “How are you feeling today?” thread like I had sometimes been before, now I mostly just reply to cafes posted, and in the gameroom.

I’ve missed your posts too though. Ok about your bday being Sept.2nd, thanks for letting me know. And aw thank you so much for the bday wishes for me too! No pressure to remember it “on the day” lol I never expect people to remember it and I’m usually bad about remembering bdays as well :p

Ya it will be a good day no matter what cos I will be getting to enjoy a yummy, homemade (Betty Crocker lol) bday cake and my friend will be coming over in the eve. Next week I’ll get to have a “2nd” bday celebration too when I see my sis, so looking forward to that too

 

[Livelife]

Ignore this post, just testing if the edit function is working

I 'hate' using the word hate. When she was alive I used to try to get my mother to stop using the word so much every day. This made me aware of how toxic its over-use can really be. (Sorry, bad sentence.)

I love focusing on, noticing, and using the word love.

Hey seabird, just wanted to say I understand about not liking to ever use the word “hate” either (even though there are some things, and people, that I could easily feel so strongly about) cos of how strongly negative and toxic it is.

Me too with preferring to focus on the good/positive things I love
Hope you’re well and that you’re having a nice day

Some friendly hugs, if you are wanting them, no such thing as “too many” hugs for me but I know everyone is different with that

I like hugs, thank you JMG. I also try to be careful not to give hugs without asking about that. I hope people understand I'm not wanting to overdo it.

I hope you are doing okay.

 

[JMG]

You're welcome seabird. Thank you for the hugs back too, very appreciated!

I try to be careful about hugs too, that's why I try to always say big hugs, but also "if they are wanted" :p

I'm doing ok thanks. Just feeling a bit tired, and also having a bit of pain in my chest (right side, not left thankfully). I think it's cos I got very upset earlier about something that happened. Hoping that tightness feeling will be gone soon though, it's not very pleasant.
Other than that I'm pretty good though, looking forward to eating some cake tonight
