Monday, Monday - I trust that day - What's New Revue
Geroge sorry to hear about your co worker. What a shock. I hope he wasn't drunk or high and did it. It would be a shame to have him impaired and not make a rational decision. I feel bad for his wife too. Will send my prayres.
Everyone sounds like they are doing well. I stopped taking the meds the doctor gave me and feel a little better. I am now sure it was the meds and not the flu.
So Thanksgiving is around the corner. We are just staying home and I am doing the dinner. My son and daugther and his girlfriend. In-laws going to other sons house and my dad going to my brothers. It is ok, it is quiet and nice to spend special time with the kids. They are looking forward to Turkey and stuffing.
Well everyone sounds like they are busy doing things. Today I am just going to rest maybe do a little laundry. I still don't feel that great.
Hope everyone has a fine day. It is cloudy here and in the 50's. No sun... BoooHoo
Take care everyone

I am on my way. What a ride it has been.

I am sooo sorry to hear about your co-workers suicide and I can only imagine what his poor family is going through right now. Suicide is truly a desparate act and I know that from the prespective of someone who once really considered it as an option, it was at a time when I felt totally hopeless, I was looking for a way to do it that would look like an accident, as my only reservations were that I did not want my children to feel abandoned (they were young then). I believe God interceded in the form of a friend who brought me into 12 Step Recovery where I began to hope that somehow my life might get better, which while it took lots of work, it has, so even at my low points over the last 22+ years I've never wanted to revisit ending my own life, but what I am saying is I can understand how someone might feel hopeless and desparate enough to think of it as an option. . .
The weather yesterday was beautiful and so the rest of yesterday was spent productively in the form of raking leaves, sweeping pine needles and doing all manner of outdoor activities with Dillinger sitting on the front porch watching and barking when someone walked by (lol). . .Also managed some cooking and by 8:30 I was exhausted and so I went to bed, oh and the $75 stairs I bought for Dillinger yesteday, he did not want to use them, but I thought he wouldn't because they were not wide enough, so back they will go and I will probably have to build something for him. . . used the same method as the night before to get him up on the new bed and then watched a little television and shut it off by 10 and went to sleep. . .
Up early today to drop Dillinger off to have the growth on his front paw removed, I'll be happy when I get the call he is out of surgery, I am very nervous about this latest round of surgery, but it was unavoidable, so hopefully I will get the call shortly that he did fine and that I should pick him up by 4:30.
Well I hope you all have a good day, am sorry for those of you suffering with tough situations and I wish you the strength to get through them.
Sending you hugs and good wishes, Laureen

Vet called gave me a good report on how things went, tumor removed and Dillinger is recovering and I can pick him up at 8 p.m. this evening. Thanks Connie for your support, I know the love and prayers that have been said have been a part of what keeps him going.
