It was Cold - It was Night

Desmond1979

I'm dosed, with a cold, and don't feel like calling it a night.

Trying to avoid the Traditional Rabbit Holes, YouTube and Facebook, but getting anxious; as a result.

Yesterday evening was the first proper cold night, of the season. And there's a dose going around the area. Not helped by kids commencing half-term today. Shops in the town will be Pandemonium.

Made chicken soup, this afternoon, and had a few oranges. Plus, I have fizzies from Holland and Barrett. It's not all bad news.

Here's to Cabin Fever.

  • Hi 

    It was a cold night last night, but no frost this morning.

    I feel your pain with the rabbit holes, although I only have the messenger part of Facebook which is necessary for an autism group that I'm part of. YouTube on the other hand, well after disabling the app, I am in a withdrawal period, but boy does it keep trying to draw me back in. I didn't know about doom scrolling until I explained to a colleague at work how I was losing 1-2 hours in the evening doing this addictive thing, that I had no idea was a thing. I only know it made me very depressed afterwards.

    I have Spotify which I love for podcasts and audiobooks. This is my go to now. It's definitely a life saver for me.

    I want to make chicken soup, maybe I will?

    Hope your cold improves.(⁠•⁠‿⁠•⁠)

    Unless it's an actual physical rabbit hole I fall down, I somehow manage to avoid them, maybe it's because I don't do youtube and stuff. I actually find being online or anything on the computer sends me to sleep.

    Hope you feel better soon
