I’ve been through a mental health crisis too and seeking help has been the best thing I ever done. Thank you Deborah! Talking about mental health issues openly is so important. X
Thank you for sharing that with me. Seeking help truly is a courageous and vital step. I'm glad to hear it has made a positive difference for you. Talking openly about mental health is indeed crucial, and I'm grateful for your support. Take care and stay strong. 💖 x
Really great video Deborah, it had a bit of everything! Even though you were feeling a bit low, you looked fantastic. Good on you for putting yourself and your health before your job. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video. It means a lot to hear that, especially on tougher days. Prioritizing health is so important, and I'm grateful for your support. Thanks for watching and for your lovely comment! 💖😊
Hi Deborah, Thank You for another great video. Thank You for sharing with us. ❤ Setting boundaries is so important for our mental health, I only learnt of this recently through some training that I needed to do. It was a light bulb moment. Nature and self care is the best medicine to reset. I'm happy to hear that you have it under control.🥰 It was lovely seeing your beautiful cat's and how much you love them. 🤗 I don't understand what is happening with the olive oil's at the moment the prices have doubled and not available as before. I loved the Costco haul especially the prosciutto and provolone cheese 😋The mutti tomatoes cans are always good to have in the pantry. The satin skirt with the target jumper looked classy, topped off nicely with the red trench coat, very French 😊Sending lot's of Love. Keep Well. 🥰❤
Thank you so much for your lovely comment! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and found the Costco haul helpful. The olive oil prices are puzzling, right? Thanks for all your kind words and support! Lots of love! 🥰❤️
I loved this video! Thank you so much for opening up. I get anxiety too, so I understand. A reset day is a great idea. I enjoyed your grocery haul and seeing your pets, they are all adorable! ❤
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and could relate. A reset day really helps with anxiety. I'm happy you liked the grocery haul and enjoyed seeing my pets-they appreciate the love! 😘😘
Thank you for opening up💝. I had my first panic attack 3 weeks ago and I actually thought I was having a respiratory arrest and that i was going to die, I was at home and I ended up calling an ambulance and spending the night in hospital. I felt so bad for wasting the ambulance and emergency departments time, but they all assured me that I wasn't waating their time. I now know what to look out for. I quit my 24 year career in nursing last December and I have been so much better since resigning from nursing, but my anxiety seems to be really high, so I am trying to alleviate some of my anxiety and seeing a psychologist. Again, thank you for sharing Deborah💖
Thank you for sharing your story. Panic attacks are incredibly scary, and I'm glad you sought help when you needed it. Don't feel bad about calling for help-your health is important. I'm glad to hear you're seeing a psychologist and taking steps to manage your anxiety. Wishing you all the best on your journey. 💖😘😘
Thank you 🙏I hope so, sometimes it may feel so hopeless but talking about it to someone who can help you navigate through it is awesome and nothing to be ashamed of. I’m glad you enjoyed the longer format I’ll try and do this more often, but it means that I can’t remove all the ums when I’m speaking which annoys me when I’m hearing it numerous times when editing 🤣🤣 my dilemma when trying to create the best video I can each time 😘😘
Hi Deborah, Thanks for another beautiful video, really enjoyed it! Loved your Costco food haul, some great ideas, especially with the sprouts! Your cats and dogs are very cute, I'm not good around cats, unfortunately I get an allergy. It certainly is costly with all their food etc.. Have a good week Deborah, lots of love 😊🐈🐶💖💖💖
Hi Caroline! 😊 Thank you for your lovely comment and for watching my video! I'm so happy you enjoyed the Costco haul and got some new ideas, especially with the brussel sprouts. Sorry to hear about your cat allergy! Yes, pet care can be pricey, but they’re worth it. Have a wonderful week! Lots of love! 🐾💕
Thank you I’m so glad you liked it, 2 of our cats were rescued, Alaska is one of those 2, she loooovves her food, poor munchkin was starving when we rescued her, she now comes in and snacks every few hours as a preventative measure 😁😘😘
Thank you Jocelyn, I’m so glad you enjoyed it, a little left field, hopefully people will resonate with it 😘😘 So far I like the steamer it did a great job with the satin skirt, no shine in sight 😍😍
Hi lovely, this was the original "inspiration" which I substituted what I had in the pantry with 😘😘 www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/brussels-sprouts-salad-with-cranberries-and-dijon-dressing-7987768
I’ll try, though I’m not a traditional cook and have problems with following recipes 😂if I don’t have all the ingredients required I improvise hence why the Brussels sprouts salad didn’t have bright red cranberries but rather some other dried fruit I had in the pantry 😂😂 I’ll try and share more of what I cook, but I’m no Nigella 🤣🤣
Your fur babies are beautiful. I have 2 cats, one is a Siamese who is 14 years old and two Chihuahuas, Bindy and Bandit. They all eat cat biscuits and don't touch the dog food. I have given up trying different brands of dog food and now just get double cat biscuits.
LOL I’m glad mine aren’t the only ones, at one point I was concerned but I checked with the vet and she said it was fine so now I’m not worried. Sounds like you’re also a pet lover, love your dogs names 😘😘
Great video, I'd be interested in your feedback regarding the clothes steamer as I've never owned one. Ps. LOVE the fur babies in your video today. :-)
Thank you 🙏 they don’t often make an appearance as they’re normally sleeping on someone’s bed 😆 I’ve used the steamer on the satin skirt I recently bought and it worked beautifully, it heated up quickly and was easy to use. I’ll try and incorporate it in a future video 😘😘
Good on you for resigning. You’re not alone, seems it’s common practice or a common tactic in order for businesses to “legally” move people of a certain age group on. It’s their loss.
Try again loved your video. Typing in bed due to a virus. Lovley to be out in nature. Yes it is good for your mental health. A good decision to quit your profession that was affecting your health. I hope your u tube channel does well as your content is varied. Your cats are beautiful, byee for now.....😄
@bronwyn3568 I mix it with Coke Zero or Pepsi max whatever is in the fridge, what about you? I’ve never tried it with mineral water. The Bundaberg I’ll have straight over ice 😉
@@Deborahafter50 Você se lembra de mim ! Porque me respondeu em Português! ❤️❤️Eu tenho uma gata já velha , e já tive um cão ! Mas infelizmente morreu há quase 5 anos! Foi muito difícil para mim perder o meu cão ! Eu amo cães ! São uma grande companhia!😘😘😘😘
Claro que me lembrei de você sim 😍😍 animais de estimação são companheiros maravilhosos, sinto muito pelo seu cachorro, eles se tornam como membros da família e você sente muita falta deles quando eles se vão 🤞😉 😘😘
Hi gorgeous Deborah. What was your profession before you ceased working? Your animals are so cute and cuddly. Very well behaved as well 🐾. I would hate to imagine what you spend on groceries 😮. I am a bit incapacitated at the moment because I had a fall last night. I tripped and fell when I was drawing the curtains closed. Brian had a cord from his laptop on the ground and I got caught in it and landed on my right hand. I knew straight away it was my wrist. Spent the morning in the hospital to find the results inconclusive. The doctor couldn't find a break but everything pointed to one. I've had my right forearm plastered and I have to see my GP in a week. He may get another X ray then. My god I'm so clumsy. Take care lovely and I'll see you soon 😘♥️♥️ xx
Oh no I’m so sorry to hear that 😢 you were only just recovering from your fall in Sydney…and yes those cords are dangerous. My pets have their moments 😁 you’ll get to see in an upcoming video (yet to be edited but filmed yesterday) another side to Louis 😅 he has a split personality 😆😆 Do be careful beautiful and rest up hopefully the doctors are right and your hand will heal quickly, you’re probably right handed too and feel lost without its use. I do hope you’re at least in no pain? 🫂😘😘
@Deborahafter50 Mr split personality, who would have thought. He looks so calm and cuddly. Thanks for your well wishes darling. I hope I heal really quickly. Wow, an accountant, I would never have guessed. Love your videos 😘💕💗 xx
Hi Deborah, thank you for sharing your journey, good for you making the decision to resign.

Love a DITL 🙌🏻 I feel like I can't walk out the doors at Costco without $400 leaving my bank account 🤦🏼♀️
I totally get that feeling! Costco trips always seem to add up fast. 😅 Glad you enjoyed the DITL video! 😘😘
Beautiful video....!
Thank you very much!😍😘
Great video Deborah. Let us know how the clothes steamer goes as I was thinking of buying one too.😀
Thank you Jocelyn, I’m so glad you enjoyed it, a little left field, hopefully people will resonate with it 😘😘
So far I like the steamer it did a great job with the satin skirt, no shine in sight 😍😍
Great video! What a nice park! can’t seem to see/find the Brussel sprouts salad recipe details?! 😊

Thanks Deborah for sharing. Are u please able to do a video on favourite Italian & Maltese dishes? 😊
I’ll try, though I’m not a traditional cook and have problems with following recipes 😂if I don’t have all the ingredients required I improvise hence why the Brussels sprouts salad didn’t have bright red cranberries but rather some other dried fruit I had in the pantry 😂😂 I’ll try and share more of what I cook, but I’m no Nigella 🤣🤣

What a gorgeous park can you reveal the suburb it is in.
It sure is 😍😍 it’s Blue Lake in Plenty Gorge Park in Plenty, Melbourne 😘😘

Southern comfort is my favourite over jim beam 😀
LOL, it’s mine too 😂😘😘
@@Deborahafter50 do you have it straight or mineral water, soda water?
@bronwyn3568 I mix it with Coke Zero or Pepsi max whatever is in the fridge, what about you? I’ve never tried it with mineral water. The Bundaberg I’ll have straight over ice 😉
@@Deborahafter50 I like zero/no sugar coke with mine if we have it. Bunderburg one you showed sounds great too
@@Deborahafter50 bet you love the Italian alcohol too. The home-made one I am talking about!!!

Do be careful beautiful and rest up hopefully the doctors are right and your hand will heal quickly, you’re probably right handed too and feel lost without its use.
I do hope you’re at least in no pain? 🫂😘😘

I think there’s a bit of a shortage of olive oil because I too have had trouble getting it. I usually buy a couple of bottles or the large tin to decant when they’re on special but they haven’t been for a while.
Love the jeans and striped jumper ❤
See you next time xo
Loved you
Thank you 😊 😘😘
Louis pooey 😂
He needs his own channel 😂😘😘
Your animals are lovely, wish I had dogs and cats but hubby says no. Mean isn't he, lol 😅😮😢
Some people are just not pet people 😂😂
