hi Ladies,
I find it is too cold to sit outside in the winter to get my vitamin D, plus i have all long stuff on, so i find a north facing window and setup a chair with a good book that way my skin is exposed to the sunlight. i try to get a few hours if i can each day.
I hope this works for you too.

Hello Everyone
Sorry I am late. I have been reading my sister's ward file. I got it today. Am quiet and ok about it, so far, but its about 5 cm thick so its a long read. I needed a break and wanted to say to "hi" you all.
I also had a few panic attacks going across town to get it (by public transport), but was gently nudged in the right direction, by ptv staff when I lost my travel card, and then random passers lead me on a 7km wild goose chase but it was good walking and exercise. I ended up where i needed to be ... yes late for that too.
I have commitments on the weekend but then am going to reduce my trips out of the house to the minimum.
Just ate chick stirfry leftovers ... and little mars bars

Hi @Appleblossom,
Oh my gosh please be careful reading it, make sure you take many breaks from it, it will be a tough read, it may trigger some unpleasent memories too. make sure you reach out if you are triggered.
you sound like you have done a lot and your body and mind are asking for a little break, you have achieved so much lately, now it is @Appleblossom time, please be a little selfish 🙂
Yummy, you sound like you had the perfect dinner, i am off to bed soon, but it is nice catching up.
hugs @Appleblossom, be gentle with yourself.
Jacques

You're quite right @CherryBomb - when I was younger I didn't need extra vitamins
But I am big into protecting my bones now - and in a gloomy winter there may not be enough sunshine - and it's not just the bones - Melbourne winters are often bleak - with little desired to go out at times
Also - I checked this out with my pharmacist - the supliments I take are okay with my medication - which is for my back pain -
That is an important point
