Muddled thoughts

~mouse

A thank you

My anxiety has waxed and waned over the last few weeks or so. But each night as I lay in bed, she who must be obeyed drifts off to sleep and the cats - after a manic 5 minutes - settle to sleep with one on my chest, I peer in the window of the Midnight and read the conversations while nursing a mug of hot sweet tea in the corner.

Some are deep, some thoughtful, some light hearted. All are honest and interesting. They take my mind away from my thoughts.

I am grateful. You all help. Thank you.

Giving back

I am conscious of a desire to write something, to 'give back' as such. I am also aware my recent post deservedly got the charming verdict of being "that's a lotta everything but fun". (Taken in good humour young ~inquiry)

Sadly there has been some more "everything but fun",

passing of my uncle, the first of that generation in this family
Staff reductions at work (extreme demotion!)

While sad and worrying respectively they have had the effect of being a "kick up the pants*"

[*ruder versions available]

I am talking to relatives not spoken to in 7 years, my fault initially.

I am getting organised at work and things are getting done. I've stopped whining.

The diet is back on. Planking for a minute every morning, walking most mornings for 2 miles.

Small stuff but a start.

"Attitude determines altitude" is true not just of aircraft.

You all have a good and safe one!

~bartender, a drink for all please, and a large kipper for smudge.

Cheers!"

Hang in there!

Not that it's necessarily your <lame humor attempt in three.. two..> cup of tea, but I chanced upon and listened to the first of the mp3's listed here, today, and rather enjoyed it... so maybe/hopefully you too:
