Good Morning!
Glad you are still willing to trek through this time Arura. It does get better. Time, time, time..... the great healer.
I would kill for a full nights sleep too. My little Doo doesn't get up to go outside but he certainly moves around in my bed waking me up as he spends 5 minutes rearranging himself.
I am grateful he is making it through the night potty wise though. It is getting cold outside! I am not looking forward to the rain as that will be a little uncomfortable. Oh well.. He is worth it.

Grateful for a warm weekend... It has been cold and rainy, blustery all week, and today & tomorrow are supposed to be sunny, around 70 F.
With all the window shades raised, I've still had to use electric lights most of the day, wasting power and burning out bulbs! (5 out of 8 in the kitchen, and I can't reach them without I climb up on the counter, don't trust my foot to do that, so I need someone tall and fit to come over!) I've been sewing like a madwoman, the tourist season is about over, and in the craft mall, things will pick up for a month, then drop. SO, I've been busy making hay, and will soon need to get a job to get me through the spring. I'm reading about every other day, just haven't come back and posted because of time, I will try to do it a bit more often. Love you all!

Vic, I hope you're well today! Oh, an afternoon nap is OFF my list, when I cave in to it, I'm up all night!!! But glad you can enjoy one. Take care!

Arura, How are you feeling today? I'm praying for you, my friend, and hope you will remember more of your doses, unsure what that means, but if it is important to your well-being, don't have so many left over!!! Do you exercise? If you work outdoors, you're pretty physical, but maybe if you take a brisk walk early in your evening, by bedtime, you'd be more tired? Not too late, or you'll be revved up, I've learned not to exercise after 5 P. Is it all from abuse/detox? Are you sure you don't have a sluggish thyroid or some other process going on? Take care!

L, Oh, I'm so glad little Doo is a free boy now! And growing up, not having to poddy in the night, sweet! Give him an extra cuddle from "auntie Kim", ok? Bless you for fostering that precious little furbaby! Take care!

Good Morning,
The time change never really disrupts me to much. I am grateful for that.

I gave Doo cuddles from everyone. Last night there was noise outside and he woke up doing his growling watch dog thing. lol He is small but noisy.
Gracie is doing well too. I had to give her a nasty pill and I was nervous. She was a sweetheart about it though. She is such a great cat. Last night she and Doo where cuddling. .
Well, it is my weekend and I am grateful.
Extra time to do whatever. I am going over to my sponsee's house this morning. I love her so much!!! We are working the steps again. It is amazing what happens everytime I put pen to paper.

Afternoon, all. Grateful for another sunshiny day!
Time change is a bit of getting used to, but I'll get there.
Sweet that Doo & Gracie cuddle. With some of your weekend, maybe you'd make a picture of him without his cast, and post it up??? Back on the farm, all our dogs and cats played and slept together except for one cat who would socialize with nobody but us humans... Everyone respected everyone else.
Arura, I'm praying for you. Of course, you want to be careful until you see your doc. I make doggie things. Beds, mats, bandannas. I had wholesale clothes and embroidered them, now I'm starting a few simple patterns to make them instead. Things will slow soon, so I'll need to work outside for a few months. Not much stays open all winter besides food and grocers, but it's a living! If I can stay out of doctors and surgeons this next year, maybe I can stash enough aside for winter, LOL! Oh, yeah, the foot is healing, only a few raw spots left. It's still swollen, I've 3 more days of horse pills and I'm done.
Take good care!

Morning,
Arura, I just can't repeat often enough how awesome you are doing. I am honored that you allow me to be a part of your journey. Keep on trudging. Don't give up. I think your goal of Christmas is a good one. What a spectacular present to yourself.

Morning Vic!! You made me laugh yesterday and that is a good thing.

Grateful to know that there is a group of people spread around the world that think of me daily and who I think about too. The power of positive thought and love and concern is staggering I believe. That is powerful stuff.

Thanks to Vic for your post, it made me think about that.
