Hello my loves, and happy weekend. I hope you're all doing well? I am still hanging in there, thank you again for those of you that have checked up on me, I appreciate you all so much!
Here are some photos and videos from March this year. It was another very wet month, weather wise, but I tried to take advantage of the good weather between the showers and get out on some walks. I had several medical and other appointments to go to, as well as post office runs for my new Vinted obsession, so those were good excuses to get out. I got to see a few friends and catch up with them as well, which is always lovely.
One highlight was discovering Farren's Bar in Carndonagh, a new favourite of mine. It feels like the bar hasn't changed in decades, it really felt like stepping back in time, walking in. They serve food on Fridays, Saturdays, and Mondays, from 12:00 until about 16:00, and it is ABSOLUTELY worth a visit for lunch if you're in the area. They have no online presence, so I can't share a link with you, but if you're looking for some proper home-cooked food, please check them out. They serve three courses for €17.00, which is an incredible deal, and you're bound to meet some interesting local characters in there.
Other than that, I don't have much to tell you. I was/am still struggling with my mental and physical health, which affects every part of my life. Some days it's all I can do to drag my sorry carcass out of bed and feed myself. And while I love the walks I take, they also take it out of me, and I am aching for days afterwards. This is the price I have to pay. I have to plan my weeks around necessary errands, and see whether I'll have enough energy left over to do anything else. The weather might be beautiful, but I can't force myself to go out every day, because I simply don't have the energy. I do enjoy the views from my windows though, as you know.
I try not to let all of this get me down TOO much, but it is difficult. I can't help but grieve for what these illnesses have taken from me. I used to be extremely fit and active. Now, I don't leave the house for days, and sometimes weeks at a time. All I can say is, I am extremely grateful for the internet, and the fact that I am able to keep in touch with people from long distance, because without that, I would be much more isolated.
