Another week over and it’s been an absolute rollercoaster. Gemini’s don’t do mediocrity.
Had a huge win at a local preloved book sale for charity, scoring interesting reads for both myself and the Little Library.
The local community theatre put on a fun little production with the title Drinking Habits, about a couple of nuns making and selling wine without Mother Superior’s knowledge. Twenty dollars a ticket, with tea and coffee, or the option to purchase vino with a cheese platter. Why these events don’t attract more bums on seats I just don’t know. Great value and good fun. ( and honestly folks, isn’t Theatre so very much better than watching cricket on TV? Shane Warne? Kill me now).
I lost two more very good friends this week : Lenny and La La. The neighbours complained about their squabbling so they had to move out. Still prone to random outbursts of tears, so I’m obviously still grieving.
Lenny and La La were the last of my pets since downsizing and have gone to acreage where they can screech to their hearts delight. Wondering if I should have made the move with them…..
Thank goodness for the funniest movie I have ever watched in my life : Snakes On A Plane – simply hilarious. Highly recommended when you are in the need for absolute rubbish. Rolling-on-the-floor funny/stupid. Cheaper than a visit to the Therapist.
As is the usual practice, fighting sadness by keeping busy. Will see Bohemian Rhapsody this weekend, attend the local fundraiser where I’ll donate some time, and will listen to The Travelling Wilbury’s, eat dark chocolate, and drink some Bubbles. I am taking heed of my GP who encourages the addition of more fruit to my diet. Mangoes and Lychees are delicious in champagne, don’t you agree?
Enjoy your weekend, Peeps.
Miss you heaps, Lennie and La La. xxx
I’m sad to hear about Lenny and La La 😢

Thankyou. I love my animals – they have always been part of my “family” and less trouble than the kids.

It’s so sad to lose our pets. But at least they’ve gone to a happy place, and not in the morbid sense. I’m sure they’ll miss you but they’re good at living in the Now so they’ll be fine. When I lost my two dogs this year, due to giving them a kind exit from their decrepitude, I felt so sad and at a loss. But then I felt a liberty. I was free of responsibility and I’m enjoying it. Giving myself a one year break to take that duty on again. I only have two outdoor fish now and they’re quite easy to care for. They’re still nice to have though. And don’t need acreage! 🐟

Totally agree, Carla. And I can live with myself knowing that I pre empted a situation where the council may have taken them away to be euthenized. Doesn’t mean I have to like it.
Have a beaut weekend x
