TC,

I meant to tell you last night. Very good reply to the suicidal FReeper.

I was going to post the thread here in case anyone had wisdom for the lady.

Thanks! Plenty of others saying the same things. And of course, it’s not that she didn’t know all of it, but sometimes you just have to have someone - even a lot of people - tell you again.

I’ve been struggling with depression since adolescence. I’ve been where she is. It’s hard.

If you get through the night, the morning is always better. I’ve spent many a night on my knees praying the entire night just to get through.

Kittens help. When I’m blue I google kittens .,

Like one of the websites said, “Google ‘Tiny Kitten Picture’ and put down the gun.”

I’m not going to wash today. I just can’t get the gumption to do it. Wednesday...I’ll wash Wednesday.

I’m tired and achy and I need to go fix that coughie.

Someone, please hit me so I’ll have something else to think about beside me.

I’m here, but I forgot the keyboard for this tablet so I may not be all that talkative.

Middle child got off for a vacation in Germany yesterday. She’s the one who visits so it’s going to be a quiet two weeks.

Good luck with Middle Child’s visit! I loved Germany and would love to go back, but I can’t even afford the passport these days, so a trip is definitely out. Even to Mexico. As if I wanted to even go there.

I hope she takes lots of pics and brings back a stein for you!

I don’t have a passport anymore. Mine expired and I never renewed it.

I hope Middle Child has a great vacation.

Face, I wouldn’t hit you. I’d take you somewhere with air conditioning.

Thanks, Gefn. I have A/C. Germany doesn’t need it. Their climate is beautiful in the summer but brutal in the winter.

A/C doesn’t help the spinal arthritis, which is the thing the monsoons affect most. I have it everywhere in my body, but the lower spine in the worst. When the barometer drops that’s where I feel it, and for the months of July and August, the barometer is always dropping.

I appreciate your good wishes, though! *hug*

How are you feeling now with the surgery out of the way?

MC is visiting friends she made in Colombia. I expect pictures, but no stein.

When we were there, I sent my brother a lead crystal stein. His youngest son took it to school for show and tell and dropped it on the sidewalk before he even got there.

I didn’t know this for years, but if he had told me when it happened, I could have sent him another.

My son still has his “cola stein,” which is a children’s version with a lid.

That was cute ... and what a relief that there were only four unfortunate babies named “Messi.” Hopefully they won’t grow up to kill their parents.

LOL!

I just ordered a new prescription for my neck meds. I guess I’ll be on them until well after my surgery. They will be ready tomorrow. Today, if I insisted and had the money.

At 0900 or thereabouts, I’m going to the thrift store and see if I can find a larger basket to put my daily meds in. I now have four that are left out of the pack...they are lonely. I will also see if I can find a picture frame and a couple of odd pillow cases.

My pillows are dead flat, but none of my pillowcases will hold two of them, as the cases are too small. I need new pillows, as my neck hurts really bad in the morning when I get up. And there is no relief for it.

I will check the prices at Walmart, next time I go.

You have my sympathy!

I’m trying to find at least one school subject for each child. There’s a chorus of, “I don’t have anything!!!” which is nonsense. They’re too lazy to look for it, and they don’t want to find it, anyway, because they hope I’ll get distracted and then they can lie around all day doing nothing.
