Some changes and some things I love.

So I've been doing some thinking about why I haven't been posting much lately. I have things to say and I miss contact with all of you, so why don't I post

Aww...what a wonderful pic-spam! The roses were a lovely bit of color, and the pets are adorable!

[fafojoy]

It is so great to add color to the house, and flowers are an easy way to do that. That is why I liked your blue and yellow so much - I have those colors in one bedroom, too. They are also the colors of Sweden, and this area was settled by many swedes, so it is a common color combination still. And so cheery, which we need after all this confounded snow.

I'm always quite happy for you to post pictures of your pets, regardless of whether they're locked or not :)

Petpicspam is always cheery, true! I have family who want me to post my pictures on Facebook so they can see them too, but I'm thinking it would be easier to just unlock LJ and put a link on FB to the LJ posts. Too much work to double post.

I like Chatty You!

I think many of us have started locking more and more posts. It doesn't make what I have to say any more important! I keep thinking it would be easier just to lock the journal. At least I wouldn't have to think about not letting it slip where I work or live, etc. to the general public.

The roses are beautiful. It's amazing how flowers will always make us smile.

I LOVE the cloak and staff. You must look so cool out and about! If I was tall I'd be wearing a cloak like that too. As it is, I'd look like a hobbit.

The room with the heated floor is gorgeous. And it's lovely (and not at all weird, I swear) that you matched dog and decor...

Pet pics! Woo-hoo! All fabulous. I even believe you that you didn't keep the kittens. I do. I do.

You would be quite impressed to know that the kittens never even came to my house. I picked them out at rescue and then the vet kept them until they were old enough to be spayed and front declawed. When that was all done and they had their shots, then I put them in a crate and took them right to Jim's house. His mom was in on it, too. I was glad to not be bringing kittens here - adding any critters to this house is some work to monitor and make sure they all get along! Though, in another day I will tell you about a potential bird (macaw) opportunity that might happen.... ;)

I am tall, so the cloak and stick work well for me. People certainly don't forget me! Better to be remembered for the stick than my really fat chipmunk cheeks right now.

Do get some flowers. We'll call this mental health month, surviving these last weeks of a bad winter all over.

You're right about the odd feeling locking the posts. I'll see how I do not locking some of them - see if I do post more because of it.

This higher dose of prednisone definitely helps keep my mind clearer and gives me more energy. The pain control needs some work, but I can cope with it better when my mental health is better. That said, I do think I want to see about some sort of controlled release dosage forms. The constant ebb and flo as the drugs wear off is really not pleasant.

'adequate pain control' makes me into a chatty cathy Well you are welcome!

The cloak and staff look wondrous!
And the roses are beautiful.
The new camera sounds good. I need a new one too, the last one took one last hit...

So it's good to see you back and chatty! Where's Nani?

[fafojoy]

I have to list out other things I love, like a working garage door opener! So many things seem joyful to me when I'm in good spirits. My roses are all drooping their heads now, here on day 11. Time to go get some new ones, I think.
