    Given what you were doing marmalade was definitely a bunny... and double yump for joy!

    Yep, marmalade definitely counts on a post-breast-cancer-mammography day. Woohoo, post cancer!

    Awww....thank you all.

    Doing better today! two clementines and greek yoghurt with almonds and 3 small dates for breakfast. NO marmalade. With any luck there will not be any marmalade for awhile I could say "with any discipline" but that is even scarcer than bunnies :)

    Marmalade has to be one of the cutest of bunnies though!
    So glad you got through this PTSD test episode and feeling better already. Very tough mentally. But we know you're tough - and resilient! ❤️

    Starting off the year on the right foot, eating tamed back down into submission (but still a few leftover indulgences I'm fitting in - very few though, I have mostly purged!), and daily activity reinstated.
    Must remove the decor though still - next week!

    I babysat 4 days last week, full days since school on break and hosted family gathering on the 1st, so I am pooped!
    Both my grandchildren (love them dearly and mostly love having them to myself lol) are challenging behaviour-wise, girl has ADHD and anxiety, boy is mildly autistic and incredibly bright - Covid isolation did neither of them any favour...my son (their dad) has ADHD, and their mother suffers from anxiety but copes well, poor girlie got both - no idea where the autism comes from! The incredibly bright comes through my son 😆😇🥰

    Off to my daughter's shortly for a night or 2, babysit after school on Monday too but that'll be a piece of cake comparatively (figuratively lol).

    Hello everyone and salutations from Sunny Athens!!

    Happy New Year! Hope everyone is doing well, and Yooly so glad to hear of the good post-op news!!

    Ehm...did a lot of eating over the holidays, so I think January is diet month for me. :D
    Actually looking forward for the challenge ahead, it's been a while since I went full science mode... :p


    Went for a little hike over to Piraeus today, thought I might share a couple of pics. The weather has been surprisingly mild so far, and I am really happy for it too.. B)

    You’re looking good Dante! Welcome back. I hope you’ll find time to post too.

    Beautiful photos of beautiful Greece. I’ve never been there but those pictures do inspire me to begin checking travel options. Hopefully I’ll be cleared to travel in a few months. Hubby is getting a pacemaker next month. Between the two of us visiting Greece is going to wait for a while.

    Aww… Thank you BCLady Bug ❤️ I love reading about you and your grandchildren. How wonderful to have such a close relationship with them. I think my heart might just burst if I had three 🤣

    Ah thanks man. Sort of. I have a normal daypack that I use for pretty much everything (long walks, groceries, packing, hiking etc).

    Conveniently enough, this has a separate flat compartment at the back for a large water bladder. I use said compartment to carry a 12kg ruck plate, something like this. Fits like a glove.

    It is fun to carry around when going out for a walk, since you can get a little more exercise done at the same time. The weight is perfectly distributed this way (the pack helps with that if you set it up properly on you), and you really get accustomed to the extra weight pretty fast. :)

    Cough cough errr.... just remember to have both hands free especially if scrambling across the street with a not 1000% perfectly fitted 50lb weighted vest which has surprisingly since been relegated to holding down a tarp!

    Amazon did refund the money a few months after I bought it because the bottom strap broke the first week after I got it and they were unable to replace the unit. But I haven't experimented with weighted stuff since then, especially since the landing did involve some skin and a few drops of blood🤷‍♂️

    But that pack looks very "quality" to me! It could be the guy wearing it too!🤪
