Well - I'm not the only one then. I am so down. This F****G job isn't helping anything. I am trying to just let it go but some days it is harder than others.
Mom is so sore, so confused and now I think she's getting a cold.

Good Evening All,
I am at the Atlanta Airport, waiting for my flight back to Chicago. I am sitting at the Atlanta Chophouse, waiting for my dinner. I just saw two airport cops strolling by, not only armed with the usual equipment of pistols, handcuffs, mace and nightsticks, but assault rifles, too!
Nora:hug: I am so sorry work is getting you down, in addition to your mom catching a cold and being so sore! Poor baby! Sending cyber hugs across the miles.
Liz-wow, I am SO impressed! You are done decorating, shopping AND wrapping..and you have a job, too. Wow, when did you have time to do all that? You put me to shame!!!
Fen-I am sorry you have been feeling down as well. Is there any way you could hook up with some of your fellow female AA members and go to a movie or go
Hiking on the weekends? You have a common ground with them so it might be less painful for you anxiety wise.
Pauly-glad to hear your daughter is coming from Portland.
Mama-how is working out of your house? Are you enjoying it?
Gotta get through security now but I might be back later. :-)

Oh rusty, that's really scary with the rifles but I guess this is what we have to get used to.
What are you having for dinner? I guess after all these years I have a sort of unwritten schedule of when things get done and you know, it works. Crowds really give me panic attacks so I shop early to avoid that. I'll be running around like a chicken without a head on Christmas Eve and day, but for now I'm in good shape.
Nora, Pauly I'm so sorry you guys are feeling down. I'm actually in a good place right now. I'd like to think it's the vitamin D 3 I've been taking, but I don't know, I'm gonna ride this high, cause who knows when it will end.
Fen, I agree, let somebody else do something. I hope you guys get it all figured out. Are you still doing the book club?
Shower and off to bed. Gotta be at work at 6!
Rusty, I don't dislike my job, but I do HATE getting up early

Rusty. that's scary.
Today is the 35th anniversary of John Lennon's shooting that impacted me.
On a never-seen footage of a Mr. Roger's Neighborhood, he addressed the show on sadness and killings and not for young children, mostly adults.
He also mentioned the shootings in Atlanta at that time - and how far we have come? more deaths and often bigger and more mass shootings. How sad for us and gun stocks were up after San Bernardino. 2015 had more mass shootings than days. Let's not get used to that.
In Switzerland you are required to keep a rifle in your home and not one homicide. Go figure. Rusty, I thought of this after you posting you were in Atlanta. Stay safe.Enlightened by MWO

SK - interesting about Switzerland - I didn't know that. I remember that day when we found out about John Lennon. Wow.
Liz - that's great that you are feeling good. I am so happy for you. You have been sounding really good.
Oh my gosh - I started writing this over an hour ago. I give up for tonight - I am going to figure out some me time every evening though.
Hugs to all of you.....Mom had a much better day today mentally. Almost back to where she was before she passed out on Thanksgiving. We've had a really good evening - joking around - lots of laughter. Thank you for all love, support, prayers & positive thoughts. It has really helped.
We received the motion sensor alarm today & we think it's going to work out great. You can have the receiver in another room and if she sits up it sets off the alarm. Also got a toilet safety rail, corner edge guards. So, we feel better with all of that. Mom is in bed now and I have the receiver out here trying to fine tune where to point the sensor. So, I've made a few runs in there fine tuning it. :rotlf:
I will get a routine soon. :hugs:"Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me.".....Carol Burnett

Hi Friends,
I am home safe and sound.
Skendall-so glad to see you here! Thank you for thinking of me, and caring enough to ask.
Nora- so glad your mom had a better day. I'm sure you are relieved. Big hugs to everyone else. I am exhausted and I'm going to bed, but I will see you in the morning. :-)

Holy cow, Rusty...assault rifles? This country is getting scarier by the minute! Glad you made it safely home.
Mom's cousin finally passed away this morning. Funeral will be some time next week. I'm going to be a pall bearer. : (
Hope everyone is hanging in there today.

Mama - fantastic. Happy for you.
Sorry I haven't been posting. It's been so hard to find time to sit down and write. But, I am on here several times a day reading. I am staying connected which I must do. So, please know that I am here and will post as soon as I can. I'm going to start posting from my kindle I guess, so watch out for some major typos. :rotlf:"Only I can change my life.
