Missinglisa

I tried posting this journal but it didn't seem to go.  Trying again.  The title of this journal is a saying my dear friend Nora uses.  No matter what happens, she is 'doing life'.  I like it....

It has been a crappy week.  I couldn't figure out why I was out of sorts.  It is April and Lisa's birthday is today.  I have been crying all day. Some years are worsde than others. This year was...

Fall is always a bad time.  I think I wrote that I have had many losses of friends and family in the autumn months.  It all leads up to Lisa's Angel Day of December 1.  The last week was the...

The autumn, despite the beauty of the leaves turning colour, is a stressful time for me.  My parents died in October, my daughter died on December 1, my niece's son died of a fentanyl overdose a...

Life shuffles along.  It has been an interesting summer for us.  We moved a half a block down the street to keep an anxiety ridden cat company!  Our neighbour likes to spend 3 or 4 months in...

I haven't been feeling up to par lately.  I have been tired and achy.  I am a walker and for a few weeks my back and hips ached like the dickens when I walked. I had puffy feet and a dry cough....

I decided to that I need to a bit more upbeat.  I am actually feeling somewhat good these days.  We are lucky to have a small pool in our building so we do exercises there 3 times a week.  I am...

It has been a rather frustrating last few days.  I tried to log on to DS and was not allowed!  I wrote and complained.  I got no response but for some reason, today, I was able to come back.  I...

I guess it is a bit of the January blues.  I am not depressed, nor and I on top of the world.  Just - strange.  I feel like I should be doing stuff.  Not sure what stuff; but something.I went for...

In a about an hour it will be a new year.  I can honestly say that 2022 has not been the happiest of years!  It began with my extended stay in Ottawa after Cevyn's stepbrother committed suicide....
