Our work slack communications become increasingly meme-driven on a Friday. It's a little reminder that my little work team is nice and I am very lucky.

And we haven't done a good things thread for a while - anyone else got one to help with the grey day?

I reduced my anti depressant significantly and I feel amazing!

That is a big effort! I am on the minimum dose now (and will probably stay here) and it's no joke tapering

Thank you :) I'm still exhausted and have random headaches, but feel so much better! Hopefully you're feeling better :)

Well I'm looking forward to the weekend and the few days off I have coming up.

I also have a working from home day later next week but I'm thinking I spread out the load over the weekend so I have the day completely off.

I've been meaning to share I really like the windchime I bought over a year ago. I got a good one from Rivers of Yarrambat and it has been great. It sounds nice, opening the door to the backyard fills the room with a nice sound, and it hasn't shown a sign of wear in that whole time.

I think placement makes a big difference, I lucked out putting it somewhere it doesn't cop too much wind, so most days it gives a nice ambient sound without going wild.

That's the kind of stuff I am here for ♥️
