My wish for Kaila and the entire K-Posse:

I rested more often yesterday, because of this message. Thank you. I did badly need it.
I still had a very rough day, but i seem a bit better this morning, so far.
The other messages helped too.
@CallMeKate
It does sometimes feel like I failed, so that was a great post.
@Pam
I loved seeing those pictures of your plants.
@PeppermintPatty
That was funny and sweet.
I loved everyone else's posts and pictures, as well as the likes.
Hugs and thank you's, all around.

You're right. When things are too rough, it feels very permanent, then doubles the discouragement. Ugh.
Thank you for the validation and for understanding.

I noticed that you'd mentioned watching episodes of Mike and Molly.....
Which i found funny to hear, because it's the opposite of those spooky, chilling things you sometimes watch.
Then, there are the fast moving and suspenseful sports, you also like.
That's a full range, for your TV pastimes.

Good Afternoon, Kaila and Friends. 
I have had the ears and head from my Chocolate Easter Bunny. Well, I have two because we're actually celebrating (dinner and cards) tomorrow, when husband is off. But as today is Easter...
For the record, we each have two bunnies. They're small.
I've done all my things for the day, for the most part, anyway, including the first two Lucius walks. I'm hoping son is available to take the early evening walk as well as the night walk (which he usually takes) so, I can just be "off" for the rest of this day.
@Kaila, glad to hear that you got some rest yesterday and that today is a little bit better.
Wishing everyone on Kaila's lovely thread a pleasant and love-filled Easter.

It's Mike & Molly and Barbie's Dreamhouse, mixed with obsessed stalkers and murdery roommates. :/ LOL

Today, overall, went better than yesterday.
Whew.
I hope i can get additional healing sleep, tonight.
Tomorrow morning, Monday, I have a very early appointment, which will be difficult to get there, on time so early. It was the only one available. So I'll try.
It's due to be very cold, with a brisk, chilly wind from the north. Brrrrrr.....
Winter coat, still.
Good morning to all of you, for when you might get here, tomorrow.

Good morning from a bright and sunny part of north west England. Hope you manage to get that additional healing sleep @Kaila and good luck with your early appointment.
I might go and do a little bit in the yard, won't be much, just pulling out old dead plants and sprinkling some seeds but I'll do what I can before Rocco gets here late morning.
Yesterday, youngest son and grandson came round with an Easter Egg for me. After they left, I went to eldest son's for my tea, vegan lasagne, then my granddaughters gave me a little gift of a William Morris notelet box. It's the strawberry thief pattern, which is the same pattern that I am doing in my cross stitch. I love it.
Hope everyone has a good day.

Good Afternoon, Kaila and Friends.
I'm tired today, but things are otherwise good. We're having spaghetti tonight and either cards (if son can stay awake; his schedule is wonky right now), or hockey. Either one sounds good to me. I'm eating too much chocolate today and loving it.
@Kaila, hope you made it to your appointment this morning and it went well. TAY
@Pam, was your egg one of those large ones with the candies inside? They are so nice and not as easily accessible here; we lean more on the bunnies. I let boyfriend know that last Easter... and again this Easter... Maybe I should just say, "Hey, I'd really love one of those really cool, large Easter eggs with the candies inside." Men aren't great with hints, are they?
---I hope you are enjoying your egg and your lovely box.
Wishing you all a peaceful day.

Good morning, yet another bright and sunny morning here. Rocco is here early today as mum has an appointment to attend. He's just eaten his breakfast so will wait another hour or so before attempting to take him out. Fingers crossed I can persuade him to go to the park. 
I managed to get my ironing done before he got here, yes I am one of those people who still iron clothes whether they need it or not.
@Medusa, yes my son did get me a largish egg filled with candies/small chocolates. I'm not a chocoholic, much prefer savoury food but once in a while I do fancy something sweet. Fortunately, he knows which (few) chocolates I do like.
Hope your appointment went okay @Kaila.
Love to all.

Good morning, all.
Especially @Pam
Because she's our early riser.
Of course it's because she cheats...
By setting her clocks several hours ahead of ours.
That large egg, with your favorites, sounds so nice a treat, that was just for you.
I don't recall having heard of that before, though i might have, sometime.
Ourselves, we don't do Easter any longer, now that our relatives are gone. I would have loved to go to a Passover community seder, this week, but we're not able to manage that. Well, maybe some other year. Who knows.

Good afternoon, everyone! Oh my, that's unusual for me to say because I'm usually saying good morning! I found a writing assignment in my email box that had a time deadline on it, so I've been hopping around this morning. Everyone doing okay?

It's snowing, here, this morning and this afternoon, too.
I saw the forecast and thought it would disturb me if it snowed again, but no, thankfully it has not!
I've been enjoying watching it.
We don't have any appointments , today, so no pressure, that way;
And it won't pile up, and there won't be many snowfalls, left, this year.
So, let it snow.

Possible replies:
The north pole?
Newfoundland?
Alaska, or Antarctica?
Actually though, northern New England.
There are small signs of Spring to come but it's not here, yet!

Did you and Rocco go to the park, today, on Tuesday?
And if so did you see any ducks there?
Do you generally see them there this time of year?
It was a surprise for me to see a pair of mallards, out my window, this afternoon.
Yes, in the snowfall and during the combination rain/ snow, that followed.
Perfect weather for our hearty northern ducks.
We used to get lots of them, some years ago but far fewer since the natural habitat was removed, next to the building.
Therefore a surprising joy to see the pair, today!
