Hi Yes in office, and I am so exhaisted tday Not in a good  mood at all. Yes just 3 more days!!!!! I just wish I had a friend who I can REALLY talk to I have friends I try to talk but they really arent there! Even  my sister i sno thtere

[paulie]

LB, Exhaustion can definitely affect your mood. Kind of goes hand in hand.
I really wish you had someone to really talk to also. I'm drawing a blank trying to think of a group or something where women get together to meet and talk together. On my area Nextdoor website some ladies posted a place and time for any women that would like to get together weekly. Is there something like that in your area maybe? If so you could create some friendships there.

#2 Very true. God's timing is perfect.

I dont think there is, everyone has kids so wnt have that in common. My lease is up end of JUly going to look for 55+ apartments since I will be turning 55 in June but nothing is cheap  ot sure how I am going to afford anything.   I am having anxiety over this.  Sad it took my sil death to realize I was able to talk to her. she may not say much but she listened. I miss her

[paulie]

Good Morning,

LB, Okay but darn to no ladies get togethers.

Great idea you have to look for 55+ apartments. And! Some more good news for you is yesterday on national news it was reported that rent prices are beginning to go down. I wish you the very best when you begin looking for a new place.

Hindsight is 20/20 regarding your SIL. You had no way of knowing. I hope you will stop beating yourself up. Hugs to you.

LB....I'm so sorry you're having a rough time.  I wish Paulie and I were closer so we could get together for coffee every now and then with you.  I know how important it is to talk to someone you can trust.  Message me anytime.

Paulie...Hi, hope all is well.

Such a nasty night here, sleet and rain mixed.  Rizzo doesn't want to go out before bed 'cause it's so cold and raw.  I'm ready for bed, so now I have to make sure he gets his last out for the night...

Hi LB, Paulie....Well, looking outside today it is MISERABLE, rain, sleet, cold....AND THEN A GIFT....4 beautiful blue birds feeding on seed and suet on the deck.  Made me so happy.....yes, it doesn't take much if you keep looking LOL.

LB...I have found over my bizillion years that you have to be very careful to whom you open up. Sometimes it can just become fodder for gossip.  I have been lucky enough to have two very close friends in my life .  Two doesn't sound like much, but I've had one for 60+ years and the other for about 35+ years.  Sadly, my friend of 35+ years recently passed away two weeks ago.  I am heartbroken.  She was not only a close friend but a mentor.  She is one of the great losses in my life.  "Friends" and acquaintances ya come across over the years come and go....but the ones who stay by your side, no matter what, are the most cherished.
 
Have a peaceful weekend everyone.

Jacaji, I am sorry for your loss .

 yes I agree very careful opening up to people I keep reliving that same mistake. I used to have close friends not sure what happened lost touch I guess.  I would love to have 1 close friend.  I just have a steel door becuase of the hurt and mistrust .   I am turning into a loner.   I would be so happy with just 1 friend

Good morning working from home but 1/2 day. I have eye dr appointmnet yearly exam

[jicaji]

2 and 3
LB...I wish I coud have worked from home.  Nice change once in awhile.  Good luck at ophthalmologist.  I need to go every few months...I have glaucoma.  Luckily it's controlled.

Hi Paulie...We're missing you

Another beautiful day, cold but sunny and clear.

Haven't seen anymore bluebirds since the other day.  I guess I'll have to buy and put out some meal worms for them.

Have a good day all.

[paulie]

Hi, I'm back. Thanks  jicaji for saying you and LB missed me. 

LB, Going back a few posts about rent prices. Yes that's what the national news said. Rent prices going down. Fingers crossed for you.

True what jicaji said if the three of us lived closer together. We could get together to talk. I'm sure we'd have some laughter too. That always is good mixed in with conversations.

Nice that you had half day work today. I hope your eye appointment was a good one.

jicaji, Geesh sounds like you had miserable weather .. and after a calm winter so far. I guess March came in like a lion for you.

BUT then you had 4 blue birds visit your feeder. That's awesome! Nice surprise!!

I'm very sorry about your loss of such a close friend.

Very good that your glaucoma is controlled. Reading you have that made me wonder if that could be the cause of the pain in your head and stiff neck but on second thought doesn't sound like it.

Nice that you had a beautiful day today. Has the snow melted yet? Don't forget to get mealworms for your pretty blue birds. 


The past days have been pain and exhaustion but still doing errands and things around the house to get needed things done. I don't take naps but I sure have the past few days. Sciatica reared its head the past few nights and days and resulted in sleepless nights and sent add'l pain to bad knee. I needed that like a hole in the head! I've been using heading pad on hip and knee more and sciatica seems to be improving some. Yay and good!

This Sunday we return to daylight saving time. Yay. I don't mind loosing an hour because I love longer daylight. Next we should be getting warmer weather too.

I'm tired so going to snuggle in sooner than usual with heating pad and hoping for a good night sleep.

I wish you both a pleasant night and you sleep good too I hope! 

[LBLNJ0668]

Good to see you Paulie!!! My sciatica is out of control I can barely move in the morning its mostly in my knee but has gone to thighs and calves. .not sure what to do I am doing exercises but it doesnt seems to help the more I walk the better it gets . I wish we lived closer to The funnt thing is we are close but yet so far. LOL.  NJ, PA, and CT

[jicaji]

3....Absolutely.  I've had people I spoke to on the phone who left me soooo annoyed until I finally realized WHY am I speaking to this person....better off when I stopped LOL.

Paulie....waiting for the bluebirds to make another appearance.  I think at this time it was just a "fly by."
 
Another pretty day.  Yayyyy

Have a good rest of the week.

[paulie]

Good Morning,

LB, Thanks!  True about you, jicaji and me being sort of close. We're each located in eastern US and states pretty darned close to each other but far away.
Yep about sciatica nerve pain moving through thigh, knee, calve and ankle at times too. I agree walking definitely helps and walks it off.
Chiropractic does help. I've gone for that before and the adjustment lined things up and pain went away. Mine has been improving so I'm hoping I don't have to make appointment. Along with you walking it off a heating pad helps too.

jicaji, Good for you doing what you said regarding #3 quote. I hope your bluebirds do another fly by soon. The wait is worth it. 

A really pretty bright sunny day here too! Love it.

#2 Lol

#3 Very true
