@Lost9, I like to play an online "scrabble" game, with a selected group of friends. It's played via Messenger, and one of the appeals of it is that we'll often check in on how each other's going in between moves.

It wasn't intentional, but my "selected group" are all friends, unconnected to each other, who are dealing with mental health issues, either personally or as carers for someone in their family... or often both. So sometimes we end up offloading and chatting things through in between moves. Other times, we just play without the chatter, but if nothing else, it keeps us at the forefront of each others' thoughts.

I love books, but I've simply been too mentally exhausted for reading a lot of the time, for quite a few years now. But at the moment, my Hubby and I are re-reading an old favourite aloud as a bedtime story, which is nice.
