Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
There was another big storm in New Orleans just before she disappeared from the forum. I assumed she had family priorities - always hoped she & hers were OK.
I rarely post these days but I do check the site every now and then just to see how folks are doing. Good to see many of my old friends still doing well.
My wife and I are doing fine, still have the horses and now a crazy puppy that keeps us on our toes. I’m the Senior Vice President in charge of horse poop management, dog park clean up and barn maintenance. Pretty low stress gig. Not much money in it but I’m allowed to sleep in the house and the food ain’t bad.
Hmm, I have a coupon for there and I'm feeling hungry....
Oh, I think they have some kind of poutine on the menu, almost every restaurant tries to capitalize on that fad 🤢
I love to pan fry cheese curds, season and serve as an appetizer with fresh tomatoes and a lovely cracker. We can only get frozen ones here and they are really expensive, like 15.00 for 8 ozs, special treat price.
KFC in the Carribean has rice and beans.
🙂 🌸 and i’m sending lots of summer hugs & courage to everyone.
🌸 today i had a nice day.
….i’m helping out my LOs. these days it’s not easy for them to see their friends. so when i visit, i try to organize nice parties for my LOs, so they can socialize and see their friends. we had a great party, and everyone was in a great mood. i’m organizing another party tomorrow, with dear friends of my parents.
apart from that, i’m trying to eliminate/solve many of my LOs’ problems, so i can focus on my work. to do my work well, i need a clear, peaceful, calm mind - not filled with my LOs’ problems.
step by step.
courage to all of us!

Sorry about all your losses in your family.
Glad you are doing okay.

In real life I am not so huggy.
(I find it strange that huggers think their right to give a hug overrides my right to avoid one).
I suddenly had this light bulb moment. I thought "I get it now. If you don't care then nothing matters right?" Just think how much easier life could be if we all just didn't care. All our sibs who don't help or seem to care. That's it! Learn to not care and just sail through life selfishly and everything will fall right into place. Pandemics, mom's and dad's getting sick and dying, our pets problems............****, just don't be bothered. Let it all go to rot! The secret to happiness.
Sigh.............only problem is.............I do care.........a lot.
So much for that idea. :0
I'd be a listening ear anytime you'd like to share your long story.
glad - you are not alone. (((((((hugs)))))) to you too.
You are right. We can't go against our natural nature. I've never tried
but I'd probably fail. And who wants to be uncaring anyhow.
In the big picture it's not going to serve you well to do so I suspect.
