What a lovely thing to do Dragon. I'm trying to work out what the blanked out name is

Alpine I hope your appointment brings some positive news.

Mags, I have been a little MIA so I have missed that you have been unwell. All my love to you.

Kaily, the flowers are gorgeous.

Well done, FreeOwl; so good to see you.

Alpine, all the best tomorrow. Hoping you receive much deserved positive news.

Dragon, so good of you to take in your Dad’s cats. They will love their new home.

Thanks to all for the great posts.

Sunday Blessings, all.

I'm up really early. I did a few morning chores. My sister just came back from Norway and she's coming to visit my mom and bring her some stuff today. I feel very awkward because we got into a big fight a while ago and we don't speak. I guess I can stay in my room and read or watch TV. It's kind of a shame. My mom in her denial, was like she wants to see you too. Not. Oh well. I'd go out and shop or something but it is sooo hot out I really don't want to go out. I'll handle it. I think I'm up early because I'm kind of anxious about it.
Wishing you all a wonderful Sunday. Here's to our sober weekend. Yay!
Hi to my dear Leigh.
Love and peace to you all.

Dragon, it’s a lovely home for your dad’s cats. Be nice when your window is done so they can go out too. I’m sure they’ll settle down.
My cats hate travelling in the car too. Ginger meows so sadly and constantly whilst in the car. Good as gold in the vets.

Hope you’re ok Leigh.

Aly I hope your sister’s visit went ok.

Alpine hope all goes well at your appointment tomorrow.

Purps love the cat pic!

Aly, I hope it was better than expected with your sister. Hasn't always been the case, but I just try really hard to take the high road in such thing, though I don't always succeed even now.

Good morning. It's day 6. Glad I was sober this weekend and got my friend's email about his mother passing. I wouldn't have known if I had been on some bender, so I'm able to go to the funeral today. It's six hours away by public transport so that's going to be a bit of a test. But obviously I need to show up sober for my friend, he's been in recovery for years.

Cool Sunday. Spent time with kids listening to their little stories. Then watched relaxing travel videos on YouTube. Had a 2 hour longer nap but ready to hit the bed. Good night from Seattle.

Not feeling the love today. Rather 'meh'.

I'm really tired but can't sleep cause I'm itching so badly. It's my scalp mostly, but itching all over too. It's so frustrating cause I can't make it stop. I use allergy meds, and also a scalp liquid supposed to soothe the itch, but it's not helping. I have a phone appt with an allergist on the 28th of this month but don't know what they can do to help me with just a phone appt. I am desperate as this has been going on for a long time now and it's just getting worse. Itching might seem like a small insignificant problem, but it's driving me nuts and affecting my life negatively. Tired of this itching and hope the allergist can help me.

Since I'll be up all night I'm going thru my things and unpacking/putting away as many as I can. I should have a lot done by morning.

Good Morning Weekenders

freedomfries, hope the journey goes well to your friend’s mums funeral. Good work on staying sober.

calmself, sounds like a good Sunday was had.

PJ and Roxy. Sending oodles of love.

Alpine, this is one of the times you don’t need to ‘play the tape forward’ just one step at a time to your appointment. Al the best. xx.

Sunny, breezy start to the day. I watched the sky early on. It was a red mackerel sky. I felt a sort of peace watching it.


Love to all Weekenders. xxxx

K_a_l_i is the other cats name. She settled in right away. Mac had a hard time and hid in his bed most of the day.

Sanskrit: “She Who Is Black” or “She Who Is Death”) in Hinduism, goddess of time, doomsday, and death, or the black goddess.
Search https://www.britannica.com for the name (
Hindu goddess)

Happy Monday (Where did the weekend go?).

FF, sorry to hear about the passing of your friend's mother, I am happy to hear that you are sober and will be able to be there for your friend. You are amazing. Keep it up
PJ, thanks for the prayers. Sorry you are still feeling Meh.
Mags, thanks for the kind words and support. I know my mind can definitly get ahead of myself. Do you have bad weather coming..? Red sky at night sailors delight, red sky in morning sailors take warning
Another weekend in the books that was pretty productive so can not really complain. Did not sleep well at all last night. Too much regarding this appointment with the Dr on my mind. Need to take lessons from Riley to live in the moment.
Least, gosh, I so wish you could find some relief from all of the itchiness. That has to be so horrible.
