My troubles with PTSD, manic depression, bipolar, ADHD, generalized anxiety and social anxiety. And Yes Covid did make it unmanageable. Before the pandemic I was taking 1 medication, and now I take 5.

You win some you loose some, but eventually perseverance will save the Day!, If you add enough drops of water you get a Drink.

Same as you Edward re needing any money possible to supplement a Carers benefit- which is definitely below minimum wage. Anything to go towards petrol which is a horrendous price.

Sorry off topic a tad but i always have to laugh how there is always at least someone critically ill in hospital in coro st after being run over at least twice on that little street..attacked, caught in a fire or explosion or building collapse or all 5 at once. Suuuuch an unlucky street. (Please no offence to anyone who really has had any or all of those things happen).

I was never into salads, but a lot of kids used to take salads with beetroot. The beetroot juice would turn the whole salad purple - even the cheese! It always grossed me out, but the kids who brought it always said it was good. I've got a friend who packs this for her work lunch.

Kitty, I would just like to suggest to you trading on the ASX, if you are aren't already. I guess Kiwis are able to trade on the Australian Stock Exchange easily. I would just like to share my experience. About 10 years ago I came across a book in the library called Top Stocks by Martin Roth. He brings out a new upgraded version each year at around this time. It is basically the thoroughly researched lowdown on the top 100 companies in Australia. They all must pay twice yearly dividends to get into the book. It sets out the criteria for making it to the 100. It is just fantastic for learning the ropes about investing in shares. I get so much pleasure of watching the ups and downs on the stock market. We are all investing in shares through our superannuation but you cannot get your hands on it until retirement age. Having a bit invested in the stock market on your own gives you the option of taking a bit of cash easily if you ever need some quick money. One just cannot go wrong with the 100 ASX sha

Yes I have used it and wish i had done more and understood it better. Nothing one learns is ever wasted. Understanding such concepts comes up in unexpected ways.

Since COVID -19 restrictions I’m definitely high vibe,I’ve been riding my bike for one hour each day & loving it, as I ride I say good morning to dozens of people who are walking their dogs it is a great feeling to be alive.

Beef hamburg fried as patties into hamburgers. I wonder if Gardner deliberately created the name Hamilton Burger for the DA in Perry Mason? Now the ads on ME-TV have Perry being offered a hamburger in a diner and saying he was on diet. They also say that the DA is a hamburger. I did not use the DA played by Wm Talman on TV Perry Mason series in any of my fanfictions I write and share online. I did marry off Paul Drake the private detective o a descendant of Nancy Drew! OK it is the 22nd Century and these characters are on other worlds in my stories. I really got reamed when I wed Hogan's Heroes Wolfgang Hochstetter to Helga Schmidt. He was a Gestapo major and she was Klink's secretary who really helped out Hogan and his small group of saboteurs and travel agents!

Is personality a euphemism for flavor?

2pts the 2nd one

Unfortunately it would be too spicy for my husband and I don't eat meat I am a vegetarian. Thank you for taking the time to share your recipe I am sure there will be a lot of people who would enjoy it.

Lamb is too gamey for me most of the time, except for maybe shish kabob. But this recipe would work for other cuts of meat as well.

The whole Liberal Party can make a choir (if you can take them all). They can\u2019t put their visions, policies and actions together, no one can lead, even Barnaby Joyce is about to jump ship. Plenty of them for you to choose, rescue them before the ship sinks further.

looks good, and again, for me anyways, I'd put this one in the lovely category of grazing plate - ain't nothin' wrong there, lol. I find a brilliant way to use up 'leftovers' esp veggies and fruit. The fish does sound yummy - will try, when I can afford some firm white fish fillets. Thanx for sharing!

Hi Kiddle. I will try this recipe without 1lb of beef mince. Your recipe reads tasty. I appreciate you submitting this recipe!

It\u2019s not broken you have to press exit with points when exiting the color lines game and the pending rewards for the survey take within 2 hours to be approved and the game offers under the offers and apps tab show up within 48 hours

Hi Kamana. I like the concept. I will substitute one cup of cooked vegetables for one cup of shredded cooked chicken. Thanks for submitting this recipe. Tasty! Healthy!

Hi River. I am a vegetarian (and I love salads). Will definitely give your recipe a try. I appreciate the time you took to submit your recipe!

What time should I come and what wine goes with grilled cheese? Took a while to figure a pairing for fish and chips too.

A real rich man's treat as in Hungarian we call it "Bundas Kenyer" ie as in Bunda being a fur coat or a fur wrap!! Love your version Vanya, will try it your way next time, maybe surprise lunch with son today as have all the ingredients including cinnamon, love it sprinkled on top of semolina! Thanks for sharing and cheers, mb.

This happened to me at the pub a few nights ago...I thought what he said was disrespectful to me, so I told him where to go... Then, he apologised to me...I made allowances after hearing what he'd been through....now, after his apology...we're the best of friends ...sort of....he thinks I'm his friend...I don't want be his.

Sounds very nice but I would leave the meat out as I am vegetarian, but would absolutely love the rest of the ingredients.

Hi River. I have no control (as in none) over my 'sweet tooth'. Hence, I will pass on this recipe. However, I appreciate the time you took to submit your recipe.

Hi Lee King. A great line: (How about that lot Walter) :-)). I appreciate you taking the time to submit your recipe. I will be trying your recipe (aka vegetarian) - tomorrow (07/07/2025). Bon Appetit (to me) :-))!

The only mobile phone I've ever owned is when a friend bought me one about 15 years ago as a present. I didn't even bothered to get it activated. People look at me like I'm some kind of freak when they ask me for my mobile number and I say I don't have one. There are 200,000 more mobile phones in the world than there are people (yes there are, google it) and yet a third of this planet live in poverty. Too hell with mobile phones I say. It's my own personal protest.

I have not been able to get on line for a few weeks. Is the recipe \u201centry\u201d a new category or a one off?

Got a $20 one also but not here! Have earned $97 this month so far on PP and its only 18th. But have to admit I'm managing more success here lately. 2000 ($2) a day most days and sometimes more.

I think we should be compensated 1000 points everytime we are mislead about the length of the survey, 1000 points for everytime we complete a survey and then told we didn't qualify and 1,000,000 points everytime the qualifying stuff goes more than 30 seconds!!!

I love it when you accidentally push a wrong button and it says "You have been screened out because are not a human!!" LOL

Anyone else noticed that on Saturdays and Sundays many of the games award less points than between Mon-Fri? For example, Cookie Hangman Mon-Fri I usually get 8 or 9 points per game but on Saturday & Sunday only 2 or 4 points.

a glass that says i didn't drink the whole bottle and a picture of pinocio with a long nose going around the glass

I'm more of a pack rat than a hoarder. My stuff has value and can be sold. I just lack the motivation to get rid of it all.

Australia has an extremely good chance of surviving a nuclear war...an American think tank drew up the three most likely results of a nuclear war and in every case Australia was still sitting there....after everything likely to be fired had run out...however the Northern Hemisphere wasn't there anymore....or ruined... strange days indeed....Australia as a really major world power?..really?

Went through all that in the Canterbury quakes, A little camping cooker type thing helped us boil water etc .just a 2 element type thing with little gas bottle. Barbeque of course and always canned food ,powdered milk and always have boiled water in containers in your kit. oh very important cash, as usually eft pos and power goes of course as it did in Christchurch for at least a week, cant quite remember as I try to block it out :(

1. How can a man go eight days without sleep? 2. How can you drop a raw egg onto a concrete floor without cracking it? 3. What goes up and down, but remains in the same place? 4. What is your body's largest organ?

Thanks for giving the invisibles a voice Edward ,lets hope one of those numnuts pays attention for once and keep on fighting the good fight!:) renter yes. D.s.p yes. constantly financially struggling .If you work 5 hrs a week at minimum wage think that tips you over their ridiculously low amount allowed to earn before pensions start reducing.so what is the point ? Paying to get there in the first place,taxi or own car petrol.I am lucky my rent has not increased but in my last home of 18 yrs ,the new landlords tripled the rent over that last 5 yr period. I ended up being evicted because I was always running a little bit late.much happier here over 6 yrs but you never know as a tenant what's going to change hey?? .good days and bad,then another year has gone by...

I think they still use it especially the turquoise which always at what appears to be the last question (a quality control question) always come up with confirming the points....you were screened out. I dont do these anymore because it happens every time and they get the info & I get nothing. The green surveys normally just screen out straight away or only after a few qualifying questions.

I love Blue Surveys ?? they are my Favorite ones of all it's all in good fun people a least we have a good chance every day ??

As with any debate, you need to be respectful of the opinion of others. In order to form an opinion, be informed. If the topic bothers you too much and you feel threatened or angry, just scroll on.

I'm wondering whether the Australian people will vote for a Labour government next time. Usually Labour governments help people who are at the bottom or who are struggling. I think an Australian Labour government would be your answer. See what policies they are offering on increasing pensions. Other than a petition or a large protest group marching to parliament.

I would learn and take advice from New Zealand who are the world leaders in such matters. Again !!!!

Summer every time for me. I left England because I was severely sick almost every winter with colds, flu, bronchitis and allergies. I then found I could not tolerate Melbourne winters as I was so miserable and sick. After moving to Queensland I was diagnosed with SADS (Seasonal Adjustment Disorder Syndrome) meaning my body cannot cope with changing climate extremes. I also have a lung disease which is now able to be treated and responds so well to warm/hot weather. I can cope, although not happily, with the few weeks of winter we have here.

Stones. Used to go to a gig they played in London when I was a teen remember Mick on the door collecting half-crowns entry fees.

Yes i love pineapple on my pizza, as i can dream that i am on a deserted island eating my pineapple on my pizza.

The problem really is that it is called Hemp and some silly people immediately associate this product with Illicit Drug Use when in fact it contains none of the drug associated with smoking pot/weed etc.. I would certainly try it if I had an issue with severe, on-going pain.

When Valentine's Day first started (in America, of course!!) it was just a small gesture to the person you loved but now it has lost it's meaning & come too commercialised & something we now don't need.

....is it um, let's see...I know...racist to buy a white kettle? Get a grip people. Aren't we better than this?

Thank you for sharing your Mom's recipe. I'm going to enjoy making this roast. I'm getting hungry just reading it.

I would not eat the sides, but I am totally for the meat!! And no, I am not against most veggies or anything. I just like most of mine raw or cooked differently.

Hi River. I have a 'severe sweet tooth' issue. However, I appreciate the time and effort you put into submitting your recipe!

Hi Kamana 1696768. I will substitute kale for spinach (I do not enjoy eating spinach). However, I do enjoy eating pasta. Anyway, I appreciate the time you took to submit your recipe. Thanks. Yummy!

simples! and lovely with crusty garlic bread! I'd also try this one with lentils subbed for the meat.

I am not a very good cook...I can burn water... But I will try to make this and freeze the leftovers.

Joke time: Bad news, there's a beef shortage, good news, it won't affect fast food restaurants. I've started investing in stocks - beef, vegetables, chicken...one day I'll be a boullionaire. Dracula doesn't eat steak, it's bad for his heart. Ground beef is popular because flying cows are hard to catch. Which cooked beef can see your future? A medium.

beef, onion, mushrooms, paprika, tomato paste, small amount of flour, beef stock and sour cream. No need for processed packets. Cut beef into strips instead of chunks and you don't need to cook so long either. I put on the water for the pasta (I use fettuccine) when I start the strog and by the time the pasta is cooked the strog is ready. 20 minutes tops!

what about tailgaters who try and push you along when you are doing the speed limit? Today I heard one third of all crashes are caused by drugs

This was in good fun. I found an army of ants in the kitchen crawling along the wall. My husband told me to cook something and they'll go away :)

If it's a sunny day and you don't feel like going out that's OK, make sure to open some windows a little for some fresh air and let the sunshine filter in. Play some music, I find it takes my mind off the immediate problem , just aim for upbeat styles. I mix up my favourite drink usually an iced coffee around lunchtime... or a cup of tea always good and calming. If you like to cook make something to treat yourself or you could share with a friend or neighbour? You could concentrate on a quiz show and pat yourself on the back whenever you get one right ! Drink water.. may sound odd but being dehydrated could make you feel worse and be giving you a headache .l just try and do the small things that I can do or feel like doing in such times . Any little bit helps oh and call a friend for a laugh is always the best medicine of course ! Best wishes Tania \ud83d\ude42

Conratulations....you are the hundredth person to ask the EXACTLY same question on Rewardia recently...without looking to see if there is an answer...I've answered this many times...as have loads of other people...don't hold your breath for customer support...there isn't much chance of that....whatever happens it is not Rewardia's fault

Not sure where you are Glenice but I wholeheartedly agree. Wake up Australia your teeth are rotting! Peak Health authority bodies want govt to start paying $ 500 million per yr targeted at those most in need to begin combating the ongoing problems of the average Aussie not being able to afford basic dentistry above a standard oral exam,xray and scale and clean ( costing between $230-350 avg). Fewer than half the Aus population now see a dentist once per yr. Canadanians 75% and U.S.A 63% Which puts us in dire straits as far as more hospitalisations in the future.... heart conditions ,dental issues too far gone , many issues including comfort eating your food ,jaw pain ,migraines ,mental health/ confidence issues etc ,etc would all be helped or avoided with regular dental care. Now if they can just find a means to train them all to be nice and gentle and get some new methods of numbing other than the goddamn needles ,, and a new style of silent laser drill ? l would be happy!

Yes, I used to roller skate at a rink in Dandenong (no longer there though) when I was growng up. Also took my daughter there before her 9th birthday when I fell awkwardly and ended up in hospital with a spiral fracture to my tibia and fibula...needless to say that was the end of my roller skating days!

Want a good tradie?...ask your neighbours...ask your friends...ask your relatives...any really good Tradie is SO busy that he or she may take a fair while to get to you...but it is worth the wait...if you can be patient....if they can be round in an hour or so....you need to ask yourself why they aren't busy......

Whistleblower claims 'non-human bodies at UFO site'.....Whistleblower claims 'non-human bodies at UFO site'US lawmakers heard first-hand accounts of UFO sightings from former members of the military. David Grusch, an ex-intelligence officer, claims the US government has "intact and partially intact" alien vehicles.

hey y'all, i have lost the link to the band, it was Mud of Puddle, a band that named itself after a great flood in the midwest USA after the Missouri river flooded,,, sorry bout that,, but i will throw one up that i saved the link for,,,, try this out for size,, ....... of Loaf

I've never completed a starless survey, but I don't avoid them entirely. Yesterday, I entered a no-star, Rose survey with a 10,000 point reward. I was screened out within a minute, but received a compensation of 217 points.

I am not planning to saddle my unicorn and fly off to distant planets...despite the unrest of the Rewardian People's. We do need some sort of incentives for our labours..what though??

Most of my cars have cost around $2,000 to $3,000...all the spare parts are really cheap...because they aren't new.....SAAB 9000?..."new engine?"...$2000....and when you sell them they are still worth $2000....don't go to a car dealer...use a website like Carsales.com...I have bought some beautiful vehicles there for far less...from private sellers...with REALLY low mileage....probably 6?...no problems at all.... hope that helps Dianne

Just sit on the most convenient seat. What's the problem here? Jeez. What do you expect from a tradie? It's Labor I think.

try upgrading the pay (and benefits) of staff that works in hospitals

Well after those results I feel that not all my fellow Ossies have been asleep at the wheel. We are pretty tolerant of our pollies but we finally woke up and kicked out the marketeer - Morrison. Trouble is it's been 16 years since Labour has been "in power". Just hope they don't go all sloppy and start having internal wars like they have been doing lately.

Hi Edward. Rewardia DO NOT remove topics, except which violate forum rules. If you are talking about this topic "Attention Australian PENSIONERS" it is still here and you can post your messages -- https://www.rewardia.com.au/ForumTopic?ik=os1F86CUbkCCCg6lZgYmZg&fk=GEN

Lockdown will not work if shops other than supermarkets can be physically accessed. Everything else should be non contact. It's not rocket science. If the virus has no access to new hosts it has nowhere to go. The sick get better become non contagious and it disappears from your community. And lockdown ends. R

Antarctica. The Vrill technology is so superior. I think they also have Vimanas there also. (Sorry, I just ate a bowl of wild mushrooms and I'm not thinking straight! LOL)

any body having trouble with surveys? I have compleater several lately and at the in it tells me I did nit quality

My granddaughter had very bad cradle cap when she was younger and nothing got rid of it until her mother used coconut oil. It was very easy to use just put it through her hair and leave on and worked well.

Not on social media and have no children on it either. The little I know of it though it sounds scary and dangerous.

Every year I make my cards and send them to family and friends for Christmas and birthdays. They really enjoy receiving them.

I personally have no problems with the way people eat their food, so long as they enjoy the meal and thank the person that cooked it. And does anyone realize that in some Countries it is considered OK to burp at the table or if they lick the plate after a meal, It shows the provider that the person appreciated and enjoyed the meal. In Australia, we are so "Would Bes" that we frown at everything

Have flow alot, but the only time was when the plane attempted to land the weather was wet & the plane slid over the tarmat so scary

I have seen people sitting next to each other speaking via their phone text messages. Utterly ridiculous. Still see them texting whilst driving. Can't put the things down for 5 seconds. I agree, these emoji's confuse me also. Maybe English should be taught in schools again like it was 50 years ago.

Definitely more creative and resourceful during lockdown, in a lot of ways it has put things in perspective for me and has changed the way I view the world...I'm more outspoken and has reminded me of just how precious each day can be, it's the little things that matter most

I'm not on Facebook or Instagram. I don't know the names of the other ones. Rewardia is the closest thing to social media that I'm involved in. I don't feel the need for the approval of people who feel they have the right to abuse me because I don't know them. The whole idea seems ridiculous to me, but I know that children can be harmed by things that they see on social media.

Diet coke is very unhealthy and actually makes people gain weight. The original Coke Formula "7X" was manufactured outside in a 44 gallon drum by a pharmacist. So from crap Coke to Diet coke I don't touch the stuff.

Not a chance and there is no way I would ever get botox or any enhancing surgery on my face or my body for that matter.If you live a balanced healthy lifestyle and look after your skin there is no need for work to be done.The best thing you can do for your skin,use sunscreen daily even in winter.

How about some fresh Cajun colours like capsicum , corn , diced tomato, zucchini , or even some chopped fresh herbs ?

Can't wait for winter here in Australia. I plan on printing out all these recipes in the next several months, in anticipation of the cooler weather! Thanks Ooooof.

I would definitely eat the noodles, but not the fish as I am a vegetarian. Thank you for sharing your recipe.

Sounds yummy, but a lot of work! I\u2019d just mix some of the ingredients into a bowl and eat it. Love chilli tuna, avo, cucumber.

I am totally amazed by some of these recipes, a lot are so basic, my kids were making them from an early age....doesnt anyone teach their kids to cook?

Your recipe is different. However, I already eat an ounce of Dark Chocolate (70 percent cacao) every day for health benefits - my GP (medical doctor) ratified (approve) that I eat Dark Chocolate (70 per cent cacao). Still, I appreciate the time and effort you put into submitting your recipe!

My how things change - I remember as a kid being terrified of the trolls who lived under a bridge and traumatised the 3 billie goats gruff. I may have somewhat dated myself!

YES....who cares?....the fashion police?...leave them alone.."young" clothes frequently look stupid on young people...so why can't old people do the same?

Thanks for sharing I absolutely love corn so will be making that for sure. I have never thought of making them. They will be breakfast tomorrow morning. Already written the recipe down in my book.

When younger would eat egg in bread grilled in a pan, make a hole middle of bread fry with little butter on side flip over put in egg & then put on plate & eat.[ \ud83e\udd5a\ud83c\udf5e in a frame].

Hi Kamana 1696768. I will substitute tofu (soft version of tofu) for cooked chicken (grilled or shredded). I will go with whole wheat wrap instead of whole wheat tortilla. I will go with baby lettuce instead of baby spinach. I will go with hummus instead of mayo (light version). Tasty and Healthy! THANKS!

Thank you for sharing and thank you for the option of tofu since I am vegetarian, will certainly make this recipe for me. Will also make the chicken recipe for my husband he will enjoy it.

I like the idea in general. Thanks Smiley for your thoughts. Certainly worth trying. If you are a vegetarian perhaps do something similar with pumpkin instead of chicken or maybe beets and parsnip.

quite the opposite, I discovered my siblings were all "accidents" but I was actually planned. However, I do wonder, as both my parents had wry senses of humour, so they may have given that story to the others.. and sworn them to secrecy as I was.
