I woke up yesterday morning sick. Not sure if it’s a bad cold or a virus. I feel awful, have the chills, fever, etc. Now developing a cough.

Sorry I didn't say something sooner but my mind was preoccupied before.

I hope you feel better soon. I realize how uncomfortable it is to be sick. There's an awful lot of stuff going around. I had a sore throat for a few days and now it's gone.

All the best to you ❣️

Honestly? A little "lost". Sometimes the gap between what I want, and what I have, is too great. It's not about money, desire, or want. I have most everything I could ever dream of. But you know, there's a gap. Tis the small things. Then the more adventurous. I know who I am, and where I fit in the scheme of things, and I have to deal with the insignificance of it all. So, down, I guess.

I feel much the same, so I understand your view. It's because most of life is meaningless and temporary. We spend so much time just maintaining ourselves.

I'm not in this spot right now myself. It does seem like life deals us more than our share of "downs" though. I won't say much more like "You need goals" and such, because there are no magic solutions and those that people offer are usually far harder to accomplish than sucking it up or waving a wand.

I sort of wonder whether living in a small town where you can walk to everything and have to interact with other people might be more emotionally sustaining than how we live today. Not that small towns are any picnic these days, many seem to have had the wolves at their door every day since urbanization and globalization gobbled up such a big share of the economy. But I digress.

Thanks Ruthanne. Luckily I am better and glad to be out in the world again. I was so glad to have my 2 dogs for company while sick. They are always ready for a snooze which is mostly what I was doing.
 
Feeling sad at times but grateful too. Thinking of my dog and how much or little time we have left. I am so grateful to have adopted her 11 years ago. She is just the greatest. Last night I took her outside and she started shaking and after doing her business she went to the door to want to come back inside. That's unusual for her but then it is extremely cold and she's gotten up there in years.
 
Ruthanne, my baby Kazzie is leaving us soon. Oral cancer. The 'possible treatments" sounded like a medeival torture chamber so we said no to all that. When he starts hiding, we'll know when.

So very sorry for your pending loss.

Well she is not at death's door yet, still pretty healthy and has a good appetite. I know I will lose her one day but I hope I go before her.
 
Yesterday drove 3.5 to a ski resort, skied strenuously 4 hours, then drove home over 4.5 hours. Very tired, ate some chicken soup, showered, and went to sleep 9 hours. Today can feel usual muscle micro tears throughout my body that will likely go away in a day. Expect to drive back dawn Friday for a third day.

Over the last month have had returning bouts of ischemic pancreatitis (due to a splenic artery pseudoaneurysm 55 years ago) that by my own self control will, ate just a little dairy each day. So I seemed to have recovered from enough that my diet is now back to near normal again, so am feeling considerably better. Even if that pain is minor, not being able to eat food for weeks really gnaws away at we Earth creatures in an awful way. Vast numbers of our ancestors met their fate in that manner we modern people have mostly lost awareness of.
 
Feeling glad that I don't have to put up with BS in my life. I've got enough problems within my life. Some think the world revolves around them and everything I do has to do with them. I'm speaking of my crazy neighbors. I can't control what they say, think, feel or how they act. Just needed to vent!!

Don't let it grind you down. Drinking is not the answer! :ROFLMAO:

I find that the great thing about a knife in the back is the way they can wait a while then give it another twist when they want a little more from you.

That's for sure. It's made me think human nature is mostly rottenly spiteful. I'm getting too old and weary to be dealing with this stuff. I should be on a beach in Bali!🤣
