Life can be a Pain

Re: Life can be a Pain

Thanks for being so understanding - yes - losing him is something I will never get fully past - and his life was traumatic too - but I understand he is at peace now

 

I have rung a taxi and I need to be outside for the taxi - I will be back later

Walking with you @Dec @Zoe, I don't know why life has to be so hard.

Chin up my owl friend ☺ I'm just watching a lovely old movie you might like 'Going My Way' with Bing Cosby (he has a beautiful voice) Have you seen it? Guess its a musical, everyone likes that song Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ra... well, maybe not everyone. 

Is it raining where you are?Myserable here, cold wind, i'm so sluggish I stayed in bed all day, and now its dark, very slack but not beating myself up. 

Just opened a tin of soup - winter vegies.What's on the menu at your place tonight?

Hi @Owlunar How are you doing today? I have been thinking about you and hoping that you are 'getting by' ok HeartHeartHeart

Re: Life can be a Pain

Hi @Former-Member

 

Thanks for all the cute owlets - that is fabulous

 

My taxes are done - I have finished with that for now - and it's a relief

 

I have seen "Going my way" a long time ago - but my Irish descended mother used to sing that lullaby to my brother - I thought that was nice - and my memory of it is nice - and I sing it to myself sometimes - not to sleep but for the memory

 

We have had some mild weather in Melbourne - sunny in the mornings and cold - but milder later - and cloud builds up in the afternoons - of course this will all change now I have said it. This morning I got up early and looked outside - it was too misty to see any stars rising - stars I know will appear as we get toward spring - I could see Venus which is very bright  but mostly my breath was condensing into a cloud that seemed to surround my head - I went back to bed and went back to sleep until late - I seem to sleep longer at this time of year - maybe all the time - I go to bed late - but tonight - I am going early

 

My daughter is dropping in tomorrow - I told her my cacti had died and by chance the nursery where she is a horticulural adviser was throwing some out so my daughter rescued them for me - ha ha - rescued cacti - 

 

I enjoy cacti - I like them on the window sill in my kitchen but they don't last forever

 

Busy afternoon - I will be glad to go to bed early tonight

Re: Life can be a Pain

I have my moments @Zoe7

 

Every now and again I get a little unstuck - but keeping busy is always good - like getting new clothes, hair-cuts - something for my arthritic fingers etc - getting my antibiotics script filled - seeing the accountant

 

(I told my doctor that I knew there was nothing I could do for my arthritic fingers except take the supplement I am already taking but ran out of. He told me to exercise my fingers and I type for a large part of the day and play the piano - ummmmm - quaint yeah)

 

That was okay - more angst before going than since - the taxi driver had trouble finding me because the address in the website is different to the website where they are now - ahhhhhhhhhhhh whaaaaaaaaaaaat!!!!!!!

 

Still it worked out today - I actually enjoy sleeping in but the day goes fast - if I get up early the day feels as if it lasts forever

 

Maybe going to bed early tonight will help - I can hope so - Tuesday night has a lot of TV - tonight doesn't - yawn - 

 

Thanks for your thoughts - it means a lot that people care

Re: Life can be a Pain

I'm not doing so well tonight @Owlunar but I wanted to let you know that I have read your post and am thinking of you - just not in a great headspace to reply  Heart

Re: Life can be a Pain

Thanks @Zoe7

 

Take it easy and hopefully you can get some sleep again tonight

 

My head can get a little weird at times - so I do understand -  mostly I keep to myself or ring Life Line - they always help

 

But I know you find it hard to talk or even type at times - so rest easy now and thanks for your msg
