Hi @Anastasia
Thanks for popping in to see if I am okay - and letting me know you are thinking of me - I do appreciate that - seeing as this is a time of year when I think of my boy I am thinking of you with yours as well -
I was sitting here for a few moments thinking of summer mornings when my son was a youngster - and we liked to swim and I would take him to the beach early before the day was hot and we would enjoy the Bay and swim. I can almost hear the far-off noise of the city and the smell of the salt air and see the coloured rocks in the water. At the time I never thought I would hold those memories for decades but I have. I have a lot of precious memories with him - tangled up in a past of days I can never forget - but they are there and I just enjoyed a few of them
I saw the podiatrist - I had a badly infected toenail a couple of years ago and I had it operated on twice and this guy is keeping it in check with his skills - he didn't take long yesterday but even getting out for health visits is something to score a plus on at times
I love that kitten in the mug meme - I use it a lot but only on Tuesdays - this is my Wednesday meme - coffee for hump day

Hi @Anastasia
Yes - I am wondering what I can find in clipart for Thursday coffee - you never know - I never know until I look
I really love this pic - in fact - this tabby cat is resting its left paw - just like me - it'sa Thursday beauty
Dec - sending best wishes for Thursday - we are nearly through another week - it's nearly Christmas
Hi @Anastasia
Good start to the day - I hope you are well MyBoy - and love it that you love my pics and posts -
Yeah - Christmas is sneaking up on us - I mailed my Christmas Parcel to my GD in Queensland - express post - and she got it the next day - I like to send some small parcels and a cheque so she can do whatever she likes with it - she is trying to be independent and this is a good idea and the occasional cheque has to help
My daughter is still recovering from her operation - as am I - so we haven't seen each other since the lockdown has been eased - I am sure we will see each other for Christmas and I have the parcels ready for her and her husband too. I give cash to my daughter too - and she can do what she wants with it too - buying something personal can be tricky
My Support Workers shifts have been all over the place this week - and last week - and I am glad I have package I do because they lean over backwards to fill most of the shifts - I am not able to do a lot of things I used to do because my shoulder is so tricky but I think the tendon is starting to heal and to have that happen I have to be careful not to stretch my arm too far - or I really know about it
I hope you have a good Christmas with your boys - it sounds as if work is busy - I remember the days - my life is pretty quiet now which is okay - I am comfortable in my own skin and like my own company
I am pretty sure that on Christmas Day I will be at my daughter's place and we will Face-time with my GD while we unwrap presents - this will be fun - I haven't seen my grand-daughter since we Face-timed last Christmas Day - I saw her in 2019 when I visited her in Queensland in the winter - which was wonderful - I hope to travel to see her again soon but my shoulder has to be a lot better before I do
All the best MyBoy - and thanks for your thoughtful posts
