    I can see Yogi is saying "Where's Mine?" :)

    I was referring to your breakfast that Kirby prepared for you. I am sorry you are feeling depressed. Have a feeling that due to the isolation caused by the virus and losses you still mourn plus the season that is to be expected. thanks for sharing your feelings here.

    Hahaha. He got a taste

    I feel like my depression is coming back. I know it’s because Christmas is coming. I have improved so very much, but it goes to show depression and ones loss is an individual one, no matter how long it has been (25yrs).

    I got yogi registered as an ESA (emotional support animal). Well deserving , he knows when I’m down. I try to explain my feelings to Kirby what I feel is no reflection on my love for him. Guys want to “fix it” but he can’t, I do tell him that I love him so much and sometimes my good life is overwhelming. I think it’s also coming back because of my being back here where a lot of my pain started. Being here in California, being around mom, etc..
    Hi PIP you had a major move of regions. I'm not sure what you left behind but... a home... a context...certainly some of that you must have loved. Even the best of transitions can be hard. I think of friends that were happy and in love, but how even those transitions were hard, because they were still leaving behind some parts of their old life they (even though they chose it), they were grieving. And this time of year, short days, holidays, and confinement-semi-confinement don't help....yes and returning to old place.... Sending caring thoughts your way.

    That is a lot to carry. I hope you are able to find some peace and support.

    Take care.

    :) Home from my Sunday morning walk with my friend. Jake and I picked up groceries this morning from QFC. Only two minor substitutions. This afternoon I am going to submit my curbside pickup order to Walgeens. Haven't done that before so I am curious about how it will work

    :)Pip congrats on the medal

    :) I just started listening to Alex Trebeck's new book. The readers are Alex and Ken Jennings. I am a huge fan of both of them.

    We brought our Christmas Tree into the living room this morning. I just started decorating. The lights are up and running as they should but I haven’t started putting up ornaments yet. I’m taking a short break at this moment. <3

    Ornaments are on the Christmas tree and the lights are working!!!! :heart: The tree that is inside is younger than the one in the photo. Both are Alberta Spruce trees. The inside tree is healthy and the one outside has bug troubles. I've been in touch with the County Extension Agent & he's given me some ideas about getting rid of the bugs on the outside tree. It looks fine where it is sitting until you notice the brown patches. :ohwell:

    What is the bottle of simple sugar?


    Simple sugar is used in cocktail making.

    That would be why I'm unfamiliar with it! :)
