Monday

I have to say that I have met people on FB that have quickly become better friends than people I have known for 20 years.  Thank you.  Seriously.  I feel like I have suddenly come alive.  I am not listening to someone who is afraid the building we are living in is going to fall down around our ears or someone who insists on talking about themselves continuously.  Yeah!

There was one little incident today that pissed me off a little.  I jokingly shared my horoscope for the day.  Got a response back that it was gobble de gook.  It was a joke, person.  How dare you debase me like that.  Shows how belittling you can be.

Anyhow, not a lot else happening today.    Have a great rest of the week, my friends. Julie, hope you are having a great time.  Stay safe, my friend.

I have left a comment on your post for Saturday. Are you talking about me when you say FB friends that you have become friends with quickly. If so the feeling is mutual, I enjoy our chats very much although I do think I prattle on a fair bit. I am a friendly person I have been told. I can talk to anyone and usually do, even strangers but thats us aussies mainly a friendly bunch. I saw that post you are talking about. I find FB and texting a bit dangerous (not sure that is the right word), you never hear the tone of a persons voice and sometimes I think the comments made may be in good faith or as a bit of a joke but you don't realise because you don't hear them said. Hope you know what I mean. I know I have had texts and I think oh no I've upset whoever only to find out later on that all was well. That is why I try to put lol or ha after my comments where I am being light hearted about something. Crap day at work today, two meetings that went on forever and didn't achieve much at all. Such a waste of time and makes my brain feel dead, doesn't take too much to have that affect anymore. I haven't had much spare time the last few days to do much on FB or talk to you and others. Trip down south was OK, lots of dead wombats this time on the side of the road. One fellow was still alive on the way out, we saw his tongue move, but was dead on the way back with flies and birds all around him. Poor fellow. Another nice area that I really like here that you could google is Kiama, New South Wales. Do you have Google Earth? Last year we went to Sydney on Boxing Day, went out on the harbour in a large paddle steamship and watched the start of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race that is on every Boxing Day. It was a glorious day on the harbour, we went under the bridge, across the front on the Opera House and then right up to where they started, it was wonderful. The harbour is very beautiful, the zoo Taronga is right on it. You would love it I am sure. You can climb the bridge and that is great also. Oh, I really do hope you get to come out. Nearly 4 pm here and I am off to the hairdresser at 4.30 pm. Want to have my hair done but can't stand the gossip and crap that they go on with. If they cut that back I would be home an hour earlier I swear. Take care Linda. xox

 I am so conflicted. Got a text from my brother that my mom has died. Don't really feel much. She had me at 16, no judgement, and gave me up a year later. Then she had another child that she gave up. Then she had my brother, all different fathers. Still no judgement. She then went on to have 2 more with someone she married, However, whenever I met her, all the talk was about how everything went with her "family". This had nothing to do with me, the "family" she gave me to was extremely abusive. So, while I regret she has died, I don't have any real feelings. It is what it is. She had pancreatic cancer, so I felt it was more beneficial for her to pass. Then, today, I learned that a neighbor, and a good friend, passed. I watched the ambulance outside of my apartment for quite a while. I felt more for the neighbor than I did for my mom. I am not a horrible person for this. I perceive this as you get what you put into this. Olga, I am so sorry I didn't get t...

 We have had the most fantastic fall so far. These are photos of the sunset a couple of nights ago. Absolutely amazing. Temperatures in the high 50s low 60s. Can't believe we are half way through November and I am still able to wear my sandals. Then we had a couple of days of rain and gray skies. We are supposed to get snow later this week. But a couple of days ago, I stopped into a store and got a great deal on a pair of winter boots. Usually sell for $120 and got them for $53 on sale.  I guess all good things must come to an end. At least now I am prepared.  I have also finished my Christmas shopping. Might pick up a couple of other things, but am finished for the most part.  Crappy, though, that a boss I really liked got fired a week and a half ago. I miss her. I am now stuck with a boss who I don't mind, but didn't really like. Our workplace has gotten really toxic. One worker, who is a POC, accuses everyone of racism whenever she doesn't get her own way. So sad....

 Well, 10 months in from my shoulder. Can't believe it still isn't totally healed. Got to keep on with the exercises. Work is totally fucked up. Don't know where to go anymore. So tired of company politics. But who knew old age would be so profitable. Collecting Old Age Security and Provincial Retirement. Even with taxes taken off, still will be of help. Maybe I can start looking for that new car soon?  Not much else to talk about. Life is kind of boring right now. Same old, same old. Look for the bright spots, people. Enjoy the sunsets, or sunrises. Me, I like to look at the watch the ducks in the park. Interesting to see the interactions of the males and females. Probably going to have lots of ducklings soon.  Anyhow, in these tough times, be kind to others, but also be kind to yourselves. Be good to each other and take care of you.  Love to all.
