Hello good people. Hopefully everyone is somewhere safe and if possible, enjoyable. It's a warm-ish Wednesday evening in my realm. All is quiet as All Hallows Eve πŸ‘» πŸ‘ΉπŸ‘ΊπŸ‘Ί winds to a close. In fact, it's been mostly quiet here all evening. I did hear a bit of commotion earlier, a dog barking and music but nothing outrageous. No one knocked on my door for candy. Probably my porch light being off cued them in that there were no goodies to be given out here. Halloween isn't a "holiday" I'm mad about. It was fun for a while, when I was in my late teens. My best friend and I would head uptown in our city, to an area that featured lots of festive fun for those who gathered. It was quite a trek from our neighborhood, over an hour on the bus, but it was worth the trip. People literally mingled in the streets for hours, laughing, dancing, singing, eating, and drinking.  πŸ˜ Then we got older and Other Things took precedence, leaving us no time to participa...

I just watched the funniest episode of "Modern Family" that I've seen to date. It's this one: Lake Life . Check it out if you get the chance. I hope it makes you laugh too. 😁

Good evening and Happy Thursday y'all. πŸ‘‹πŸ½ 😘 It's been a busy day around these parts. My morning started with making my bed, getting daddy's breakfast and morning meds ready, and a phone call that was a lesson in humility. What had happened was... A friend has been going through a period of distress and I've been trying to be as supportive as possible. πŸ€— Our interaction has been good for me too. There are very few people I can confide in and this friend happens to be one of those people. However, this morning I woke up feeling like maybe I'd been taking advantage of my friend because I felt I was getting so much from our conversations. During the apology conversation I initiated this morning, I became emotionally overwhelmed and began to cry. But it was a silent cry because I didn't want my friend to know I was crying. I didn't want to cause any guilty feelings (and feel even worse myself, for doing so). When the conversation ended, I fel...

Oh Happy Day y'all! I hope everyone is doing well. Daddy and I are. We're still adjusting to our new life. I'm beginning to see that it's an ongoing process, just like everything else in life. As soon as I think all is in order, here comes that ole monkey with her wrench. πŸ’ Que sera, sera baby. I'm doing what I can and leaving the rest to that good and great Higher Power that has gotten us this far. πŸ€—πŸ™πŸΎ As usual,  so  much has happened since I was last here. πŸ‘€ Daddy has had two doc appointments, one with his primary and one with his cardio. Both doctors were very concerned about his kidneys (not news) based on his lab results (both sets) but his cardio's office called today to say daddy's labs were "good". His cardio also said (at the appointment) that we would see a lot of him in the next few months because he wants to monitor daddy carefully. He also mentioned that he wants to see if he can get daddy off of a few of his curren...
