    Katla,

    I am here, reading along each day!

    Feeling neurotic and anxious about all I have to do.

    Wondering why I self-sabotage when I have a lot to accomplish.

    All totally worthless - the neurosis, the anxiety, and the wondering. Pffffttt!

    Karen in Virginia


    Sending prayers for your family and for you. You are hurting along with others in your family. I hope for the best possible outcome for your brother in law, the family, and for you.

    Katla

    Michele- here, it is more that the stores don't have people to stock the items. We went in one of the Safeway's and looked like no one came in to work meat department,seafood department or frozen.
    Yes, there are some shortages but not like what we saw. (dh works at another Safeway so knows about shortages and price changes as he helps in that department a few times a week).

    Allie - thinking about you and Tracy, hope all goes very well...

    For all the West Coast folks, and a few inland states as well, if you bought ground beef recently, you might want to check it at this website.

    The usual suspect of E.coli, and that site gives you a list of where it was distributed, and which kind.

    Later, y'all,
    Love,
    Lisa

    Interesting. I had just purchased ground beef and a day after, it had turned brown. It's in the landfill now (or on it's way), but now I'm glad I tossed it. Thanks for the post.

    Sue-thank you for the suggestion for an app (Calm) for possible meditation/sleep assistance. I also have used some of the meditation/mindfulness programs on my fitbit app. My DH is not real thrilled when I turn them on. I’ve really been struggling with getting to sleep and staying asleep.

    Allie-congratulations on the new grand baby. How wonderful is the miracle of new life?!

    Today wasn’t a great day. I spent the day with my DH who finally felt well enough to get out. We ate out all three meals today and I went over my calorie limit. I’m disappointed with my choices, but we enjoyed our day out.

    Congrats and big hugs, Allie. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

    Julie: Like Sue in WA, I also use an app called Insight Timer. I use guided meditations every morning by some very gifted providers, sleep stories or music at night to sleep, guided Reiki when needed, and free live events like yoga or group chanting when the spirit moves me. This app has been instrumental in helping me maintain equanimity.

    Karen in VA: Be kind to yourself. You have alot on your shoulders, and in time, it will all be resolved.

    Allie, congrats on the new grandson.

    Heather, congrats on the publication of your short story.

    Thanks to all the well wishes for my dad. I am at the hospital with him tonight. This is my first night staying, but my 8th straight day of being here all day long. My sister is finally here so she can chauffeur Mama back and forth. I wish they’d let her take a turn in the hospital room, but they won’t. I could only talk Mama into going home by staying myself. She has stayed for the last three nights. He’s had some setbacks. He is still at the hospital. We were expecting to go to rehab on Wednesday. Now the plan is Monday. They wanted to send him home on Thursday with hospice. Mama freaked and said no. We were still going to give rehab a chance. They discovered something called Zenker’s Diverticulum that was the source of the choking/coughing fits/falling. He’s been working with a speech therapist and a dietitian to help with that. Now that he has had a couple of successful days of non-episodic meal eating, they are more inclined to discuss rehab vs hospice. This is rough stuff, y’all. I’m not gonna lie.

    I really hope things start improving for your father! :heart:

    I am surprised they're letting you stay that long. When my husband was in hospital, they had quite strict visiting hours, and that was pre-COVID.
