    It is hard for me to find humor in your hat because I have a son who is an alcoholic. When the alcohol combines with his mental illness it is a disaster.

    I do have an occasional drink. DH has a drink with his meal. Because of my son I do lose my sense of humor when people make fun of drinking too much. Alcohol has caused too much pain in my family.

    Karen - Your fun day with your granddaughter sounds wonderful! :D That's why I love our one to one days with the a grandchild so much. The whole day is transformed by their fresh vision and appetite for life. Every step is an adventure.
    Plus you get the love and the hugs. :D Having all three at once is lovely, but knackering. :o
    I was explaining diabetes to Edie the other day. That was fun. <3 The ex nanny's brother, aged 14, has just been diagnosed. We share a great interest in medical matters.

    Margaret <3 I drink, probably a bit too much, :embarassed: but I know alcohol is not a laughing matter for so many. My son nearly lost his job, his family and everything. Luckily he was able to stop. One day at a time.
    I'm going to have an alcohol free day today as you have reminded me.

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxx

    Barbara - So sorry about Scooter. <3<3<3

    Karen: A blissful day that your granddaughter will treasure.
    Ginger: Bagging me one of those guilt-free days today. They say 'Old habits die hard' but I believe new habits can be stronger. I am also still doing my morning workout and my normal clean as I go routine. Hope your tummy settles.
    Connie: Bra expedition: 😂 😂 😂 And congrats on the lower sizes.
    Barbara: So sorry about Scooter. Our fur babies are precious to us. (((Hugs)))

    I'm a happy bunny!

    After Scooter fell trying to get over the threshold, and got stuck trying to go through the coffee wagon instead of going around the chairs, Joe and I have made the sad decision to call the vet and schedule his transition next week. He's not in great pain, but lost, confused and forgetting where to go. Joe's been carrying him down the steps 7-10 times a day. I've been praying he'd be taken in his sleep, but that apparently is not to be. He would have been 15 in October.

    Word for 2019: "GOOD" good attitude, good food, good times, good choices, good enough, feel good, GOOD! Word for August: gratitude.

    So sorry. {{Hug}}

    Barbara- I'm so sorry... and no need to apologize. We bring our whole selves to this place, it's important to have someplace we can do that.

    Love,

    As to wearing white - :D I never wear all white IRL. It was purely as a costume for Pride. I was also wearing diamanté drop earrings and a sparkly crystal necklace, not my usual attire on a Saturday morning. I spend my life in exercise clothes!
    I took it off the moment I got home. :p
    However it did survive sitting on the shingle beach on a towel :o AND a chocolate ice cream cone, which I wrapped in lots of paper napkins. I was amazed I got through that!
    I do have a couple of white, long sleeved t shirts that I wear once a year. I do think it looks 'special'. When I was fat I wouldn't wear white. Now the main problem is what to wear underneath. I don't normally wear a bra, but I did yesterday for decency's sake. I also bought white knickers specially when I bought the white pants.
    Definitely a special occasion colour!

    Just heard a friend I was at uni with, and whom I helped through her breast cancer when she got it after me, has just had to have a colostomy for bowel cancer. Plus more discovered. Make the most of every single day folks. <3

    Connie ~ Excellent bra shopping experience. Congrats on your smaller size!

    Barbara ~ So sad for you regarding Scooter. Losing a beloved pet is so hard.

    Keytone Karen ~ So glad you had a wonderful day with your granddaughter.

    Lanette & Katla ~ I had to go read up about llamas. Did not realize they were domesticated. Such interesting creatures.
