Monday Round Up

โ€ข6 Replies

Hi everyone,

I wonder what the new week will bring to us?

Actually mine started in quite a painful way.

Kasar the cat (also known to me as 'Ivan the Terrible'), was displeased that I discontinued his petting first thing this morning, without permission. As a revenge, but without any malice, he just quietly sank his teeth into my arm as a demand that I continue forthwith. Which I quickly did. "Sorry m'lord, I won't do that again in a hurry!"

No quotation for you today. You can have the day off! I generally post the same quotation in both of the communities I moderate, but today's was focused just on the Positive Wellbeing forum, so I will recommence tomorrow. (I'm sure you'll all be glad of the rest).

How did last week go for all of you? I think that things are stranger now than at the start of the pandemic. It's a restless and more worrying time in many aspects, with one half of the population wanting to quickstep into more freedoms and the other wanting a more leisurely waltz on the way back. I think it's just time to make more individual choices which will keep you safe given your own set of circumstances.

I hope it's true that throughout the pandemic, Carers have continued to get all of the support they've needed, and to all who have helped to keep things going, whether personally for the ones you care for, or for those who've continued to keep essential nursing services going, I have to say that you are all my heroes.

And with that in mind, I'm now going to get my Monday started in earnest and I wish you all a really good week ahead. Take care and be safe. ๐ŸŒบ๐Ÿฆ‹๐Ÿ’–

Oh Kasar, youโ€™re so demanding! Our daughter has a cat like that but she just taps you on the arm. Lol. Cats are wonderful creatures and such individuals. Kasar is very handsome which of course he most definitely knows.

This past week has been much like any other but I do prefer being at home. Itโ€™s a real worry the way things are at the moment and somewhat scarier I think. I feel we will get through this together though.

I look forward to a quote tomorrow Callendersgal but thereโ€™s never any pressure.

Enjoy your day.

Take care all. Xxx๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ’–

Thanks as always sassy59. Yes, Kasar's a bit of a handful to say the least. Hubby gets so cross with him and asks how I let him rule my life so much, but, well.... he just does! I sometimes wonder if I was one in a previous existence ๐Ÿคฃ.

I too am finding it really difficult to leave home. It's not just fear of poor social distancing, it's all the queuing, the overcrowding, the dread of needing to find a loo unexpectedly. I just feel I'm not ready to cope with that.

But we will get through sassy59 and thanks for reminding us. We are getting through! It's just that it's a slow process and some of it isn't going quite as well as we might have wished.

Take care and I hope you have a good day today! xxx ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿฆ‹๐Ÿ˜Š

Kasar is just being himself and I think heโ€™s naughty but nice. Iโ€™m a cat lover anyway.

Take things one day at a time, thereโ€™s no rush. You can go out walking somewhere maybe but obviously with caution.

Love and hugs. Xxxx๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ’•๐ŸŒˆ
