The vegan place to discuss things.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

Tell us about a personal project, hobby, side thing, activity that you've been getting into lately.

I have been chomping at the bit while trying to stay patient and positive during my recovery period. PT is being slow about getting me in and my stir-craziness is starting to get the better of me. At the same time though I'm grateful that things are the way they are. I know there are many people worse off than I am and my heart goes out to them. Limitations suck.

I spent the last week slowly but surely cleaning up the back yard and removing/burning overgrown shrubs (WHY ARENT YOU YAUPON?!?!?!?) so that our dogs have more space to run and play and potty. The weather has been crappy and rainy which sucks for most things but worked out perfectly for burning brush. Silver lining, or something.

Besides that life has been pretty standard. I've been trying desperately to get back to reading my books but it seems like distractions continually pop up and prevent me from "getting in the zone" where all I want to do is bury myself in a book. This week's priority is to do more reading, distraction be damned!

Hope your recovery goes well! And don't overdo things too quick. I did that one time and it drastically set me back even further than where i started 🤦

Thanks for the kind wishes. I'm doing my best to stay disciplined and within what my body tells me I can handle. Once this side heals I have to have the same things done to the other side, so I need to learn to live with it for a bit lol.
