That sounds great @Captain24 - I love the idea of taking Pixie. Too cute.
Quick note: don't by the snacks and you won't have any at home to go to!
At this precise moment, I've craving vegemite toast LOL.

I’ll take a photo of her in it tomorrow @tyme. she absolutely loves being in it.
I never thought of snacks! I would have just bought them and not think about it.
I just had ice cream but now there is none left in the house!
Vegemite toast should be ok.

I've had my dose of vegemite on toast, using cholesterol-lowering spread, and reduced salt vegemite. I'm satisfied now 🙂
As for the ice-cream, you've done yourself a favour by finishing this lot. Hold back on buying the next.
In the past, I found I needed to 'wean' myself off sugar. The less i had it, the less I craved it. But it took time.
Anyway, we can do ourselves both a favour and have virtual ice-cream, hot chocs, and junk! LOL. No damage to the waistline or heart!
I'll wait to see your Pixie pic!

Virtual sweets sounds good. I’m going to have to try as I don’t want my weight to ruin how far I’ve come.
Thank you @tyme between you and diamond art I’ve remained safe and haven’t acted on any urges. Thank you

Glad to hear @Captain24 that being on the forums has been helpful.
Maybe you need to make a Pixie diamond art pic.
I'm going to wrap up soon and nod off 🙂
Speak to you tomorrow,

Awwww! Thanks for sharing @Captain24 ! I love it!
You work hard - it's okay to treat yourself. That's self-care 🙂

Definitely self care! @tyme
I did buy the happiness trap book though. Oh and also another diamond art!
I come home feeling good then I went and mowed the front lawn but now my feet and legs are aching 🙁

Well a whole day shopping and the lawns are worth the sore legs @Captain24 . It would be a worry though if you had sore legs after doing only the lawn. Did you spend the whole day with friends?
As for the Happiness Trap, I look forward to hearing how you go with it and what you think of it.
Here's a hot choc for you - made with love:

Love the hot chocolate @tyme
I need to stop pushing myself when I feel good and just enjoy it.
I’ll start the book when I go to bed tonight. Hope it helps.
I went on my own. I don’t really have any friends that I can do things with. One friend lives in Melbourne and I’m central NSW, another lives 4 hrs away and the only other actual friend I have works on my days off. Hence I’m pretty lonely.
