It’s Friday night and gorgeous (no mosquitos, yet)… It was a good day. Went for a walk this morning. Now I am sitting on my porch wondering what you guys are doing? How was your day?

Why is it so hard to meet people and hang out in person? Seems like (feels like) it's just "easier" to be internet friends or text friends. Is that an age thing or a "post covid" thing?

Looking for some movie ideas. Suggestions?

I have a dental procedure today and I am terrified. Its irrational fear but it's there nonetheless. I have had one cleaning 6 months ago and the last one before that was 20 years ago....so my mouth is in bad shape. Had a wisdom tooth come in at 38 and fall out at 41. And since then my mouth has gone downhill. Was fine up until that pesky wisdom tooth. The ONLY reason I am going today is because of my daughter and not wanting her to have the fears I have. Has anyone here done the scaling procedure? The "deep cleaning of the gums". Any advice on before or after anxiety management??

....is the distance between your brain and your heart. Whether it is an emotional loss from divorce or death of a family member, friend or furbaby, we understand things in our brains but can't get it accepted in our heart. Eventually we do but it takes time and work. I have dealt with all those things but am now faced with a different set of circumstances yet fighting that 18 inches again. We just bought a new house. I am excited because it is a nice home in a gorgeous view setting. I can't wait - yet - I feel overcome with anxiety of the work ahead because I know it will fall mainly on me. It's 4 hours away and we will be keeping the home I am currently in for as long as we need. There is no rush as we will be doing it with U-Haul when we can/want. I guess I am looking for tips, motivational ideas or whatever y'all can share to help me start on the major decluttering that must commence. All my moving in the past was done locally so this is different and I refuse to move a lot of things I no longer want or will need. I'll be donating a lot, maybe selling some things too. I know all the reasons to let go of stuff. I don't think that will be a problem. Getting that first step going is the biggie. Suggestions? Oh and any suggestions for packing things is welcome too.😊
