Sad day. Our cat, Sonny, had to be euthanized yesterday. His final resting place is now in the front garden.

I've teared up and choked up but haven't had that 'good blubbering cry' yet. I think the meds are keeping me from it. Perhaps it's for the best? However, I am very agitated today, can't be still.

Taking some comfort in it being Good Friday today. Whether you celebrate Easter, Passover or the beginning of Spring, I hope it is a peace filled time for all.

I am so sorry Pitmom, I hate when our fur babies get to that point,. It is so hard, especially if you have had them a long time. I hope you can have a good cry.

I am also sorry you feel agitated. It could be the wellbutrin, that is what you started isn't it??? It made me nervous and I couldn't sleep. But I didn't give it time to go away. I stopped taking it.

I hope you feel better soon.

Hugs, Karen

RIP Sonny...

I am so sorry Pitmom about the Kitty xxxxx I know how you feel about your babies xx May you know that Sonny is now peaceful and resting well. That doesn't make us feel any better right in this moment but he will always be with you. hugs xxx

Sorry that you are agitated and not expressing the feeling you want to, it will come.

Blessings and love to you and your family xxx

Hugs, Pitmom. I am thinking of you and your loss of the fur one. You did the best thing for him.

-waves to Karen-

Hi, Leila!! Are you new or have I missed greeting you before? I am middle-aged female, professional, no kids, an ex husband and a current BF. Good to meet you!

Yesterday I got my eyes checked! Wow! Bifocals are in, and thank goodness because my reading has been really difficult. I have a pair of multifocal contacts to try before I order new ones. I also have ordered two new pairs of glasses. I cannot wait to get them. BF and I had a small skirmish yesterday about them. Grrrr. He decided I ought to wait before I bought them (??), and that color was not good. I bought them immediately once I decided on the style, and both pairs have color. He started to lecture me, and I stopped him, and told him he might want to rethink. He said something positive and then came the "but." I said, "No But."

He was not amused. But my purchase of glasses with my own money is my choice.

I have a spring cold. Nose, throat, chest, sweating like crazy. Rah!!

Just sent out 4 applications to private schools for next year. I also worked on my patchwork crochet quilt. I need to crochet some patches together, for it's time. about half the quilt is crocheted, and pinned into place.

And, for those following the saga, I went to an al-anon meeting on Wednesday. I learned a lot and will head back next week. I have not yet told BF anything other than support-group meeting. Small steps.

Be well, all.

Hi Leila, Welcome to the forum. Myself, I believe she is new. I hope you stick around Leila... Like the name...

Myself, you are so ambitious. I am proud of you. Good on you too for saying "no buts"...

I hope you have a wonderful day today. Sunny here off and on. Not real warm, but not real cold either.

I hope you aren't getting a cold or a bug.

Take care...

Hugs, Karen...

hello all. sorry pitmom. healing thoughts. hey leila. i've seen you buzzing around. you said some kind words on one of my threads. welcome. been up all night. still dark. nearly 6am. got about 2 hours with the alien. just had a hot shower. feels good.-all clean and less sore. the mattress topper is helping. i guess i will make a coffee. i call it lava. y6u know hot. i'm having a lava. i got weird names for stuff, but then again i am encentric. slightly mad. as my shrink says, 'relatively stable'. not quite there.......i like this. a little bit of diverse madness is good for the soul. man, i could not handle being being stable. that would be stigmatizing!!! okay. lava time.

Hey Jamie,

Glad you popped in but wishing you weren't missing sleep. This morning I slept until after six. That is truly sleeping in for me.

Have a good one... Relatively stable huh? Wonder what I am? Totally expletively mad as you would say...

Ha...

Mornin', Jamie. Nothing much 'new' for me. Inhale-exhale is the most important project of my day (except for the 'Scramble' game which will appear shortly.)

Hope you have a good one.

Tried listening to some of my favorite music, which always lifts me up, but the darn c d player is shot! Guess I'll have to purchase a new one. Found a nice cat statue to put in the garden, in memory of Sonny. Sunny but windy here. Good to see everyone's posts. You all give me hope!

Pitmom so sorry for you loss. Whenever I have to put one of my dogs, [I have 3 have alway had at least one] to sleep, I usually get another within weeks. It helps my sorrow and I save another life. I always adopt.

Leila, welcome. I rarley come on the daily, but pop in once and a while.

I wanted to wish everyone A BLESSED EASTER OR PASSOVER.

Peace all

pitmom, sorry about your cat. Thinking of you.

Myself, your eyes are important. Glad you got the glasses despite your bf buts.

Interesting 'did you know' Joyce.

Hi Leila!

Karen, Jamie, Trina, Jess, Rey, AngelLisa, everyone else-hello.

Quiet weekend or me thus far. I finished laundry, chores in the house and washed car. Not sure what's left to do tomorrow and Monday. I think I'll just watch some tv and I have some personal things to work on.
I'm having trouble falling asleep still. Going to try to sleep again.

Good Night Everyone!

Sorry Joyce,

I have a habit of always breaking my favorite coffee cup. I have dropped a whole decanter before though too. I hope your day gets better...

Many gentle hugs to all...

Karen...
