Just took my evening dose of meds, so I will be up a while. After 4o years of drinking coffee I can drink it until I need to sleep and the caffine has no effect on my sleeping.
I read many of the threads and see alot of unhappyness and low self esteem, Perhaps we could talk about some good things that happen today? I refilled the bird feeders and watched the blue jays and cardinals and finches and woodpeckers eat. Later in the day, I herad a tapping on the side of the house, my dog and I went to see what it was, and a red headed woodpecker was tapping on the side of the house!
Little things like that I really enjoy, sp how was your day?

I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Eagle, I interviewed for a job in northeastern wyoming. We'll see what happens.
Another run along the sound, Jenny in high spirits leading the way, head and tail up, grinning. She takes us on dog runs, mostly at a trot, interspersed with stops to sniff, canters and full out gallops. She has the right idea as changing pace will get us into shape more quickly. I kept up only just, a bit leaden today.
Dark gray skies this noontime with a bright band of blue in the far north, white caps and waves breaking on the shore. Container ships moored in deep water, pleasure boats motoring by. A ferry sailed west into an oncomming squall. We were home just ahead of the rain.
