What am I not feeling LOL

ummm tired and I have had a headache since last night so...

I feel sore and good. Oh and the sore isn’t what you think. Gutter brains!

I feel maybe I shouldn’t have had that “one more” drink but I feel good so maybe I should have. And I did so yeah. Damn friends. Good people.

i feel rested but stressed as we had an emergency surgery last nite, her retina detached 1/4 of the way and a 4:30 eye appointment turned into a 9pm surgery


the surgery was 1 hour and i drove around the hospital trying to figure out where the patient pick up was after hours, i finally decided to park at the patient pick up area and go get food as neither of us had eaten since lunch

after picking up food i made it back to the waiting room just in time to see the dr and he said everything went well

now she has to sit in a special torture chair for at least one week maybe two

oh and she cannot drive for 8 weeks

oh gosh! Send her my love! I hope this is the end of it for her!

Energized and ready to get outside and enjoy the beautiful fall weather that finally decided to arrive.

I’ve definitely got that Friday feeling. :D

Tired and hungry...

Today is my first day back to work after a horrendous bout with a head cold that tried to meander to my chest.

Mucinex is awesome for avoiding such things, but Lord, it makes me feel all tuckered out

At the moment, pissed.

Better. Much...much...Better.

Me too........

I wish I could get sleepy.
On Friday morning, I was scheduled to have breakfast with my best male friend, a straight, smart-assed, kind hearted guy I just adore.
He knew I was gay, but he didn't care about things like that.

I texted him Friday around 9 a.m. to see if we were still on, then I went about my business, remembering to text him again every hour or so.
He owns a restaurant, so when noon came and went, I just figured he had gotten too swamped to answer my texts.
By 2, I was getting concerned so I called him at the restaurant.
His manager answered, so I asked if he was there. She said quietly, "He died this morning."
I had to ask three times because my brain was not accepting it.
Finally, I said I was coming to the restaurant right then.

He had suffered a massive heart attack and died that morning in bed.
I'd just seen him the night before, and now he's gone.
We were very similar in personality and senses of humor. He always used to say, "Bye, babe, I love you," whenever we'd say goodbye.
I am not so quick to say I love someone, especially straight guy friends, but I had just started saying it back to him that last week.

He was only 50. He wasn't supposed to go before I did.

We had so many things going--I was helping him do some marketing and designing some new stuff for his restaurant. I wanted to create an outdoor cartoonish statue of him, like the old Bob's Big Boy character.
I had just showed him the cartoon roughs and he was into them.
We were inventing new menu items for his place.

I had just talked him out of being a "Colorado Republican." He was going to vote a straight Democratic ticket next month for the first time, ever.

And now he's gone.

I wish I could unscrew my head for a month and just stop the political headaches and worries, and now this pain.

Better than I did yesterday!
 

..

Thursday at my doctors appointment I received both a flu shot and a pneumonia shot. While I really didn't feel I had an adverse reaction to either, for some reason I just felt out of it all day Friday.

Good. I woke up feeling OK, I had a nice day out with some friends, and I'm still feeling OK now, no ups or downs or panics. Best day I've had in weeks!

Wonderfully hopeful.

I have a headache because today was really busy at work.

But even so I am in a tremendously good mood. And for no obvious reason. I feel energetic and happy.

Forget that.....Go find something you deserve!

I feel a bit better, but I need to stop pushing myself to do so much.:byebye:

it feels like time is spinning faster and faster..it's not even Halloween and i'm thinking of Thanksgiving!:|

I feel desperate, and worried, and entirely overwhelmed.

A bit of back pain has me a bit cranky, otherwise im in a good mood.

So excited and grateful!!!

Sleepy.......

I really need to bring in my own stuff to make coffee.

I don’t like the coffee they have here. Plus I don’t trust this cleaning staff.

Better.

I'm in the final and QA stage of a project and the Project Manager made major changes at the last minute. Last night she sent out an email that made no sense (she's tired like the rest of us) and it's the first thing I saw this morning. Luckily, I was able to get her on the phone for a conference call and she made sense of what looked like one big mess.

I have my work cut out for me and will work again this weekend, but will probably take the rest of the day off for some retail and piano therapy (going to Costco then home to play the 88s), then get back at it tomorrow morning.

These things happen and life could certainly be worse.

:bow:

Good and bad...

The bad:

Yesterday I injured my ankle rather badly while attempting to tackle my 80 pound pit bull. Long story.

The good:

Although this occurence has caused a lot of strife in my life (stairs are now a very interesting kind of cardio yoga) I have decided to make the most of what will surely be a lengthy healing time. I am enrolling in an online course I’ve been wanting to take. Lemonade from lemons!

The other bad:

I may have to forgo our planned trip to Salem for Halloween. We’ve got over a week til then so I will try to remain hopeful.

re: Salem-i found Salem very odd..the people were odd..the magick was also odd and not what i expected..Intensely Hoo-Doo magick about & displayed..the town was hot as a Hades..Repressive..although some town folk were helpful and i found an early version of stew with apples that was truly delightful...i also sought the monument for those who were slain for being witches..calming..whether witches or not..i think they were at peace and i would find it perfectly comfortable to spend the night in the small vintage graveyard i happened upon.......would i go back?...probably.

I've been reflecting all day ~ It's my grandmothers b'day ( God Bless Her Soul) my mentor ! I also broke water on this day for my daughter Leah . My grandmother stayed on the phone with me till I went into full labor . I'm feeling blessed in so many ways for both of them in my life :)

Kitty you were in Salem !! I live less than 2 mi. from where your visited. Right now its all tourist's , and where they said the slayings took place isn't even in Salem. It's a town called Danvers, right next to Salem. Where the slayings actually happened would send shivers right threw you. The judge who ordered the slayings bought property in Danvers where he built an insane asylum . Till this very day the structure is very, haunted. They turned the property into a high end apartment building.

How intriguing ocean! (I) also found it was inhabited by Native Americans for quite a while before the settlers..I wonder how the founders of the town managed to get the Indians off? I lived for many years on former Indian lands by a tribe long extinct and it was very haunted..and not with nice ghosts..these ghosts startled people who came to visit and not in a kind way...Salem has a deep history.. Truly, how exciting that you live so near( i would love to hear more, sometime..i hear there are many witches who decided to make Salem and the surrounding area..home..i find that odd...but then nothing surprises me when you consider the nature of humans :) here's what i found...

"Salem Witches"
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...em_Village.jpg
The central figure in this 1876 illustration of the courtroom is usually identified as Mary Walcott.

The Salem witch trials were a series of hearings and prosecutions of people accused of witchcraft in colonial Massachusetts between February 1692 and May 1693. More than 200 people were accused, nineteen of whom were found guilty and executed by hanging (fourteen women and five men). One other man, Giles Corey, was pressed to death for refusing to plead, and at least five people died in jail. It was the deadliest witch hunt in the history of the United States.

Twelve other women had previously been executed in Massachusetts and Connecticut during the 17th century. Despite being generally known as the Salem Witch Trials, the preliminary hearings in 1692 were conducted in several towns: Salem Village (now Danvers), Salem Town, Ipswich, and Andover. The most infamous trials were conducted by the Court of Oyer and Terminer in 1692 in Salem Town.

The episode is one of Colonial America's most notorious cases of mass hysteria. It has been used in political rhetoric and popular literature as a vivid cautionary tale about the dangers of isolationism, religious extremism, false accusations, and lapses in due process.[1] It was not unique, but a Colonial American example of the much broader phenomenon of witch trials in the early modern period, which took place also in Europe. Many historians consider the lasting effects of the trials to have been highly influential in subsequent United States history. According to historian George Lincoln Burr, "the Salem witchcraft was the rock on which the theocracy shattered."[2]

At the 300th anniversary events in 1992 to commemorate the victims of the trials, a park was dedicated in Salem and a memorial in Danvers. In November 2001, an act passed by the Massachusetts legislature, exonerated 5 people,[3] while another one, passed in 1957, had previously exonerated 6 other victims.[4] As of 2004 there was still talk about exonerating all the victims,[5] though some think that happened in the 19th century as the Massachusetts colonial legislature was asked to reverse the attainders of "George Burroughs and others".[6] In January 2016, the University of Virginia announced its Gallows Hill Project team had determined the execution site in Salem, where the nineteen "witches" had been hanged. The city owns the site and is planning to establish a memorial to the victims."

i would love to visit again.

i feel good.. walked under the maples..feel such happiness there

Warm and satiated and loved :moonstars:
