I need SOMETHING good to happen. I am at my wits end I swear. Shit.. One bad thing after another and another and another...

Thanks for letting me vent!

[yourexwife]

Not the only one sweetie, I got me some silver in my locks. : )
Not liking it, but not into the the chemicals of changing it to the color I was born with. LOL
: )

So how is everyone doing on this gloomy day? Happy music will lift your spirits.

The most scary thing for me is fear of falling. I don't know why, maybe I spent too many years as a geriatric social worker. I fell on Thursday. Even 10 years ago I would have just been embarrassed and picked my self up. Now before I picked myself up I checked for anything possibly broken or splintered. I am sore from neck to toe (nothing broken or sprained just battered, rug burned and bruised) but it scared me. I have no idea why I am telling you this. LOL My bones feel ancient today. heh

[Galahad]

Ouch Isadora. Thank goodness no broken bones or bad sprains. I have the same fear of falling too. Nothing heals fast anymore. It took a year the last time I fell for those aches, bumps and little muscle pulls to work out and get my strength back. The new scare with taking the osteoporosis prevention drugs is brittle bones that shatter. I'm taking a calcium and mineral supplement now, maybe too late, but I hope it helps.

[Jet]

It's hot out today
hope everyone is okay
fallen or not

take care, i think i'm going to do more

I never worried about falling untill a fue years ago,when a simple slip trashed my knee and back.The doc thought it was just bruses and a sprain.the knee got better but the back took a good hit.many years of rideing show horses had slightly bludged a disk,tho it wasnt a prob to speak of.Then I fell flat on my butt and hit hard and really did it good that time.

[miss entycing]

[Wryly]

hey all!

Beautiful weather here - nice and sunny. But my little niece thinks I need to watch Toy Story......again!
I've watched it so many times with her that I think I know it by heart.

Hope everyone has a good day.

What-o Chaps and Chapesses of the Loft

It's been a while old beans, I hope everyone is feelin' dandy now the spring is really upon us. Don't you love the bursting forth of cherry blossom and the first horse chestnut tree leaves? (well here in the UK anyway)...and spring lambs gamboling in fields, racing up and down having a rare old time.

What heralds spring for you?

[Wryly]

What heralds spring?
hockey playoffs! Hoping the Detroit Red Wings do well.
Allergies. I don't suffer much, other than some headaches and a stuffed nose, but it really is annoying.
Putting the woolies away! Actually - we enjoyed a mostly mild winter so I didn't need the sweaters like I usually do.
Family. In the spring I do a bit of travelling and visit my nephew and his family. Always an enjoyable time.

[lipstixgal]

Well I'm 52 and I feel young and great would be better if I had someone in my life though.

ahaa I forgot the major sports; here it's the F.A Cup (or whatever they call it nowadays), major domestic soccer championships. Oh yes, putting the heavier of the winter wear away is always good too. Have you had your spring trip to see your nephew?

The spring sap is rising huh?

[fever]

The lilacs are coming out now too, Wryly, and they are my favourite bush/flower. Where are you travelling to visit family? If you come to BC, please give me a shout. But, bring your rubber duckie boots, it has been raining here way too much! lol

Good afternoon to all the lofters. Ruthie, I am sending you big hugs. You are one terrific femme. Maybe YOU need to come to BC for a visit. I have a few butch friends that would love to meet you. :-)

Incubus - I'm enjoying my visit right now! Matter of fact - I just extended my time here. We've been busy, busy, busy - seeing the sights, going places. Plus you add in the activites for his daughters. Having a great time.
I've been to London a few times. Once I was lucky enough to see a women's FA Cup final - I remember one of the teams was Everton. A good time.

Fever - sorry my friend, I'm unable to visit BC anytime soon. Hope to someday. My family is in southern California. Beautiful weather here - except for the earthquakes. Apparently there was an aftershock last night - but I slept through it.
Oh my! Lilacs are one of my faves! When I was a kid we had a row of lilac bushes growing by the house. I remember them being quite tall. Sadly, they are no longer there.
