It is pretty in the snow Charon. Ruthie looks determined.
This is the plan formulated with the Public Health Nurse who deals with bites. I will try to keep eyes on the cat and if I see him alive until next Tues (that will be 10 days) then I can safely not have the shots. If I cannot determine he is still alive then I will have the shots. That is the protocol she recommends to everyone who gets bitten. The shots here are free. It doesn't cost me anything. I am not going to gamble with my life, after all, it's 2020 ;-)

It's very cold here, but sunny.

Glad that you have a plan, Calicofish. Hope that you continue to see that cat.

A repeated post for xmas day.
I awoke feeling like shite, as is oft on xmas with no immediate family. I attempted to stay in bed and languish in self misery, but the recovery tools kicked in, so I scrubbed my living space, did washing and dishes and had a shower and felt human. Then the xmas ldinner with 2 friends who are in the club we all are in- all sober. All with broken families and lots of sadness- but my incessant babbling and energy and a walk on a lovely beach got us all much lighter in mood- reminiscing about funny comedy shows that are bad, with simple- but healthy food and lots of stories. We all felt much better for making an effort.

So like every day- the lesson for me is to mindfully appreciate what I have today, not the ruminate over what was- or may have been. I am grateful for the friends and the day. My youngest son sent me a message last night and I sent my oldest a message mid morning instead of playing the 'your turn' game. He responded- so I am grateful for the contact.

Nearly 9 at night on xmas day here. I hope all have a safe, happy and peaceful xmas.

Remember the Hallmark Channel Yule Tide Log? Here's the one from last year: "Happy the Cat, Happy the Dog, and adorable adoptable kittens and puppies relax and play in front of a warm fireplace complimented by traditional holiday tunes. Special appearances by Pip Squeak the pig and other beautiful animals."



Merry Christmas Everyone! Thanks for helping me stay on the Sober Bus!!!!

Starting Christmas morning with coffee in hand.

It's funny to think that I will have to wake my teenagers to get them up on Christmas morning.

Happy riding all!

I want to watch that Yule Log video, but it's three hours! I do have a fireplace video on my Netflix, too. It just plays in the background with no cute animals.

PJ, loved your post, I mentioned it in Weekenders too. Connection and laughter are what it's all about. Many of us don't have the "family" we envisioned. Heck, I bet most people don't!

On the bus.

I was gonna post an image and I saw this. I was looking for a little baby Jesus, but where'd he go?



Apparently Jesus wanders off, even as a baby.

How to keep baby Jesus in the manger? Bolts, cameras, and tethers

On the bus. We have a really big storm happening right now. The wind is such a force.
Have a peaceful day everyone.
