Morning Leo - I'm sorry that you fell! My worst nightmare. Your cute picture of Dahlia failed to post.

Last night, I thought that the ganglion cyst was better. There was less swelling and pain in that finger. Apparently it was an anomaly. It's not better. Very sore today and I haven't even done anything.

I start work at 3 today. Before that, I'm headed to the mall to return the last of the outfits that I ordered. Also, I need to run to Kohls and look for a lightweight pair of casual pants for my partner. His birthday is on Saturday. I have something else coming for him too.

I did pick up another short reservation for the weekend. Better than nothing. Honestly, I'm just not feeling it. I don't want to start work again. It's not an option to quit. Most likely depression and anxiety at play again... probably be fine once I get in gear.

Hoping to see the last of my Mom's car this week. Getting it out of the driveway would be nice. And, just in time for tire sales on the holiday weekend. I am getting half of the proceeds from the car. I need new tires so the timing is good. If the timing doesn't work out, I'll just wait for the 4th.

It's freezing here today and overcast. The weather has been terrible this spring. Pretty sure that I won't be opening the pool this year. Really can't afford it and if the weather is going to be like this/raining all summer, it's not worth it. I will work on my gardens instead. They are a shambles in some areas. I am going to turn the North side garden into a rock garden. Tree roots have taken over the bed and it is impossible to get anything to grown there because the soil is so hard. Might use succulents - still mulling options.

That's it for me today. Time to get back to chores and get organized to go to the mall etc, I hope everyone is having a decent day. Waves!

And now, I see the picture of Dahlia!

Afternoon everyone. Long day and I still haven't slept nearly enough. It's cool and overcast again, and it's been really windy. About to go home and walk Miki even though all I want to do is lie down. I posted yesterday afternoon about Jackie, she's supposedly being stalked and threatened by the couple she was stalking several months ago. I'd like to give the benefit of the doubt, but she's still saying that she didn't do anything wrong calling him from the office at 10 pm, so Idk. She also mentioned possibly needing a lawyer, which is not required to get a restraining order...this makes me suspicious that they're filling charges against her. I'm betting they're harassing or attacking each other, and I highly doubt Jackie is the innocent victim she claims to be. Ugh...I hate the constant drama and tension. And it's only Tuesday. This is gonna be a long week.

Fan, that's my cat. Now you see her, now you.... where'd she go?

Miki, maybe they make Feliway for people?!

AngelaJo has asked me to post for her. She is in dire straits. Since coming home from the rehab facility, she had been staying with her mother. Mobility is improving but she should still not be by herself. Mom has gone off the rails again. There’s a lot going on and none of it is good. They are being kicked out if their house, cell phones cut off, personal belongings and medical stuff are no longer accessible/at Mom’s house. She is just devastated and none of this helps her recovery. Please take a moment to offer support.

LEO- I hope you are ok, and recovering well. Fall injuries suck

Fantod - Happy birthday to your significant other. I had half a piece of cake Sunday and gained a pound

My MIL says she has been discharged from counseling, She claims her counselor says she is completely fine has no bipolar, anxiety, depression, or PTSD. And that she was right her doctor perscribed pills are poisoning her. All of it lies of couhe'll.

No counselor in their right mind would say, "Stop taking your prescribed medicine, they are poisoning you"

She said the same after she got out of heart surgery. That the doctors said she was doing so great that she could be discharged and go striaght home when in reality she needed 24 hour care at a rehab facility. That made my wife's life hell.

I hate being lied to and be expected to celebrate someone else's lies.

I am trying to prepare for the fallout, like an extreme manic or depressive state. Or another health collapse.

Also the big contract I was working awarded at work. The finance person told me that the package is trash but still better than last year. I'll take that as a compliment.
