Our Day~ Sun ~ Jan6 '08
Today was long and sad for me and we didn't go out at all.
I didn't feel well so didn't do much of anything all day. In fact, we just sort of snacked for dinner...with whatever we could find. I have not slept well for several nights so am very tired during the days. ( Plus having melancholy feelings much of the time that I seem unable to shake off)
One bright spot of the day was when my 2 girls stopped by for a couple hours. Alli brought The General in for awhile, to pet and cuddle. He liked the attention but pretended to be 'put-off' by the whole thing. He didn't fool me at all! :)
To end the day and, hopefully, help prepare me for sleep, I am listening to my CD of
George Martin's ~ 'In My Life.' This is a collection of Beatles songs, performed by various artists, produced by George Martin in 1998. This CD- (a gift from a friend)- is a top favorite of mine and I play it often! It's a fantastic production. IMO
Heading out now...hopefully to sleep and dream sweet dreams!

Hope you get over your sadness soon, but I can understand why you feel this way at this time.
Hope you are able to catch my hugs as I toss them your way.
xoxo
So glad you had someone to come by and help to cheer you up. ec
ooOO General the kittycat is beautiful....
Well, geesh, you did put cats pictures first, so don't feel like I'm ignoring the writing or anything.
I get real moody this time of year, too.
It's a real downer, putting away the holiday decorations and going back to work!
Plus, my dad and my father-in-law each passed away during January (different years)....sigh....
It's real nice for you to have family close enough to stop in and brighten the day.

Thinking of you, Junie.
I hope this rough patch of your life will soon pass and things will look brighter for you.
((hugs))
Hi Junie,
Sorry you're feeling so sad. Here's a big (((hug))) for you.
Hope you feel better soon!
xo
Thanks, all of you.
Everyone is very kind...and I know we have all suffered the same kind of losses.
We get through the bad times!
But always know- your kindness is appreciated very much!

If I were there I would sing Happy Trails to You. The one Roy Rogers and Dale Evans always sang. That would make me pretty mellow. Glad for you for the company.
Hi Junie, I hope you soon feel better, things will improve given time.
Meanwhile check out a real "Beatles" compilation album called "The Beatles love songs", please don't confuse rhis with the more modern remastered album "Love".
Cliff,
Thanks! That old Roy Rogers song would be sure to cheer me up!
As a kid I was a big cowboy fan! Hadn't thought of my cowboys in a long time...(Roy-Gene-The Lone Ranger...all those guys)

Bigbikerbob,
Thanks for visiting me...and , yes, yer right, things always DO improve. Well, at least at most times we're able to keep our sad feelings under control and not allow them to dominate our life.
I always enjoy music. It's my cure for the blues- and Beatles are high on my list. Thanks for the suggestion on that Beatles album. I'll be looking for it.
Meanwhile...last night I was watching some WHO youtube vids. Last year I was able to see them in concert for the very first time!
A thrill for me!
Junie
These pictures are so sweet!!
I hope you're getting some rest.
MG,
Thanks for stopping by.
Yep- always enjoy a little visit from the kids :) and always have my camera handy whatever the occasion...or non-occasion! :)
Am getting a slow start to this year-due to several factors...but am working on getting my house back in order today!
Take care,
Junie
I'm so sorry you are having a emotional low time these past several days.
I knew it from the last comment you left at my blog.
I've been away for several days, and I had my own bad days too to deal with.
I hope your days will soon feel brighter. I know that when an emotional funk sets in, it is hard to shake.
I don't deal with depression, but I have close family members who do, so I know that it is very real and very hard to deal with.
Remembering your mom on her birthday also reinforced your emotional slump, I am sure. It is so hard to lose someone we love so dearly and whose love was so great. Our lives feel empty without them and there really is no "getting over" the loss of them. We can only learn to deal with the loss, and we are not always successful in dealing with it.
I know your kids and grandkids are the light of your life. You are also very blessed to have such a loving and caring hubby. These bright lights in your life will serve as beacons to lift you out of your melancholy place. Until that time of emotional lift comes, I pray you will not feel too dreary and will begin to feel joyful feelings very soon. I'm so glad that music is a source of comfort to you, and I pray it will soothe your soul and ease your mind of its stresses and sadness.
