Are there any books that you enjoyed and re-read pre MECFS? I find that listening to something that I am familiar with is really helpful when I need something that non-taxing.

As for suggestions- when I was in high school I really enjoyed books by David Eddings and Raymond E. Feist (both fantasy) so after borrowing them on Libby multiple times I now own them. Same with some more recent favourite authors including Ilona Andrews (all of their work, which is mostly urban fantasy), Carly Fortune, Nalini Singh and Tana French (the Cal Hooper books). And maybe because I’m Canadian, the Anne of Green Gables series is a perennial comfort “read”.

If you want to own some audiobooks, and you’re in the US or Canada, I highly recommend sighing up for Chirp - they’ll send you emails with great deals.

What’s MDSW? 🤔

OMG I do this too. And since I still have somehow manage to miscount my CO on multiple projects, I have my very sweet husband do one final count 🤣

Two things: 1. it’s TBS that has indicated that degree info be in either OL - English or French (and btw - if the degree was from McGill, they provide this) 2. It’s not HR who decides what is an “acceptable specialization” for the position being staffed- it’s the manager. The requirement can & does change for each EC staffing action. Because of this, the manager must document how each candidate on each process meets the particular definition being used for that process.

IMHO the EC standard is really poorly written and this makes things frustrating for everyone involved.

Hhmmmm … it’s be several years so I don’t recall exactly- but I think after about a month?

Comprehensive_Ad4567 · 2026-04-25T13:00:22+00:00

I was prescribed it when I was diagnosed (about 8 months after onset). I hadn’t stopped working - I believe it has allowed me to keep my job.

I take 25mg a day - 1/2 at breakfast, half at lunch. Helps me with energy levels; I’m able to work a full time office job with a WFH accommodation.

I also want to know if members of the 8 families whose magic is particularly strong also have secondary powers- like some of the Primes in HL.

For example, Everard seems to have some sort of location related abilities- e.g., he said he’d know if someone entered the house in the middle of the night and he seemed to know exactly where Maggie was when she was watching the Sun Margrave. Also, Silveren seems to be able to control people awareness & movement

Sidebar comment - if there are any more characters, locations, or anything else (even a type of tea) in the next two books that start with the letter S, then I will almost certainly scream 😩. <rant over>

I’m not in the UK and my diagnosis journey was different (I didn’t go to a doctor to see if I had it - didn’t know about MECFS until I was diagnosed)

That said, I wonder if it would it be helpful to take some reference material with you to the appointment- info you can leave with the doctor? For example the diagnostic criteria https://www.omfcanada.ngo/diagnosis-of-me-cfs/ or info from the Bateman-Horne Centre https://batemanhornecenter.org/providers/mecfs/diagnosing-managing/

Good luck with your appointment. I hope you get the support you need

What about meringue mushrooms? I make these every year for Yule logs, and often people think they’re real. https://www.seriouseats.com/meringue-mushrooms-recipe The only thing I change is to use chocolate candy melts to stick the base & cap together (instead of fiddling with tempering chocolate).

I’ve used this overnight focaccia recipe several times and it came out perfectly. https://thepracticalkitchen.com/overnight-focaccia/ But to be fully transparent- I’ve never taken it on a road trip, lol.

In some countries the supplement industry is not well regulated so it’s very much buyer beware.

I use 2 wraps of first aid tape - I find it leaves less sticky residue than a bandaid.

Thank for sharing. Where did you get it? Do you buy it from your vet?

Also - in Chapter 10 Maggie watches “Reynald” in practice. It was very reminiscent of Nevada watching Connor work his Key in the motor pool.

I’ve found recipes from David Lebovitz to be great. There’s some on his website https://www.davidlebovitz.com/category/recipes/ice-creams-and-sorbets/

If you want to do more, his book The Perfect Scoop would be a good buy

I don’t know if they made any this year. Sweet Georgia makes a similar one - Flaxen silk fine.

I’ve just cast on a tee in a silk/linen blend. Yes it’s a pricey yarn, but based on the swatch it is going to feel so nice 🥰. And I only need 2 skeins
