    Many of you know I live in Maine, I am south of Lewiston. Many places including here were closed today, as they've still not found him. It's anybody's guess as to if he's still alive and if so, where. Could be any place, certainly I'd imagine he'd want to get as far from Maine as he can, but that remains to be seen. TY TY TY to all who are sending healing wishes to those in Maine. It's a rural state, and yes, of course, I do know people up in the area. My GD (and kids) are fine, they live in the area but are at home.

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well and are safe this morning. Today is Friday. Joe gets his first paycheck from his new job today so we are going out and celebrating with dinner out with his daughter and her husband and my son and his boyfriend. I am hoping to not overeat. I have been overeating a lot lately. I am having trouble controlling my hunger and not going overboard when I do eat something. I am not sure what to do about it. Especially since I am not exercising like I want to, It is really rough. I am struggling a lot. We just don't seem to be able to find a routine.

    @Dianedoessmiles1 - Please stay safe. I read about the tragedy yesterday and immediately thought of you and hoped you were safe. I am glad your family is safe. I am praying for those who have lost loved ones. I am also praying that the man is caught and gets the help he needs. It sounded like he has been suffering with a mental illness for some time and no one helped him so that this could be avoided.

    Well I hope you all have a great Friday and stay safe.

    THANKS! @Kurtize @Tabatha_Cain I keep checking to see if he's been found. Indeed Tabatha clearly has quite the mental illness, but this was planned out. At any time He could have called 911 and said what he was planning on doing. but instead, he chose to go through with a plan. It was youth night at the bowling alley. The poor kids.

    Hi all happy Friday. It did rain a little more rain due tonight but today it is very humid. Its 80 feels like 88 and humidity is 86%. My glasses are foggy up. Haven't slept well the last 2 nights don't know why. I wasn't going to exercise but decided to go for a walk anyway, glad I did, I end up feeling better about myself. Nothing else new here. Wishing you all a great weigh in tomorrow. Hugs

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Saturday. I have a wedding to go to and I have a tree trimmer coming this morning before the wedding. So much to do. I am taking photos for the wedding. I hope my battery lasts. I think it will but we will see. Today has been a really good morning. I want everyone to know I am sorry if I offend anyone but having family that has suffered from serious mental illness I tend to see things differently than most people. So I do not want to offend anyone with my posting and if I do I am sorry.

    @Dianedoessmiles1 - I completely agree that it is a tragedy and I feel so sorry for those children in the bowling alley. I know that the shooter is not blameless; however, they are saying that they knew in his military basic training that he was hearing voices and having issues. Why would they continue to train him to be a firearms trainer if they knew he was having mental issues. Then there is that I heard he left a letter for his child. So again he had a relationship with someone what left him. She knew something was wrong and left him rather than try and get him to seek help. People with that type of mental illness typically fear the police and are not going to call them and say they are planning to do something because with their mental illness they feel justified in what they are planning. Yes what he did was horrible It is a huge tragedy. It is also a tragedy that that man suffered for years with a mental illness and no one in his family tried to help. They say he spent 2 weeks in a mental institute. Well that is only long enough for an evaluation. Not treatment. I know because several of my family members suffer from mental illness. One pulled out a gun and shot himself in the head in front of his mother. His immediate family knew he was bi-polar and never tried to get him help. They just kept telling him it would be ok. That is why I am so strong in the notion of therapy and helping those with mental illness. You have to help them if you suspect there is an issue. Most people are not going to get help on their own because society has told them to be strong and be tough.
    @Kurtize - I always feel better after a walk. I think it is the endorphins that make me feel good. Either way I will take it.

    Again I am sorry if I have offended anyone. That was not my attempt at all. I just want to help people see that people with mental illness are victims as well. Not to the caliber those he shot are, but when you can see a point in history that he could have gotten help if someone had acted and tried. Then that person is also a victim.

    I hope you all have a great day.

    Good afternoon, everyone! It's a beautiful sunny and windy day here today. My daughter says hello to all. She's working at her part time job today. Both budgie birds are doing well and say cheep, cheep! I went for a short run earlier this morning and I really enjoyed it. I went for a walk after lunch and I feel great! I'll be doing some dancing later on. Have a great day, everyone! Take care and stay safe.

    Happy Saturday. Tabitha I hope no one was offended. Unfortunately, we do not have the facilities to help disturbed persons. My nephew had Schizophrenia and bipolar. When on medication did great when he went off he became violent. Sadly, unable to deal with this he committed suicide but luckily he didn't kill anyone else. Sad world at times.

    Have a great rest of the day and weekend, and a very productive new week.

    @Tabatha_Cain, So many with a mental illness. Likely most families have issues some places in them. We are living in a time unlike any other.

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Sunday and Joe and I have church this morning. He again is on cameras and I am in with the 1st graders today. Yesterday was my nephews wedding and I took photos for their wedding. I am looking forward to getting them all edited and then being able to show them their photos. Some of them my camera glitched and some of them were just a bit out of focus and I cannot figure out how to get them fixed. I will figure it out though. I am gonna try anyways. Also having trouble with my program getting it to remove the red eye. I am doing what the tutorial says to do but it is not working. So that is fun

    @Kurtize - I wish we had the facilities. So many people could be helped and even more lives would be saved.
    @Dianedoessmiles1 - That is so true. We are living in some unprecedented times.

    Well I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday.

    Good afternoon, everyone! It's a cool and windy day here today. My daughter says hello to all. She's working at both of her part time jobs today. Both budgie birds are doing well and say cheep, cheep! I did my strength training workout earlier this morning and I really enjoyed it. I went for a walk after lunch and I feel great! I'll be doing some dancing later on. I went to an 80s dance party on Friday night and I really enjoyed it. I'm going to see a Halloween movie 🍿 today in my building. Have a great day, everyone!

    @Kurtize, my son made his own journey and left this planet two years ago. Feels like yesterday in ways. Sorry about your nephew. My sister was devastated, too. Yes, the world is full of mental illness. Some exacerbated by drugs and alcohol, sadly. 😔
