Gosh, I had no idea it had been so long since I had been to this blog or posted anything. Nothing new or dramatic going on, just haven't had much to say. The lockdown time has made me even more introverted and antisocial than I was pre-pandemic. I THINK about writing, I THINK about sewing, I read a LOT, a lot of blog visiting---mostly not commenting, but showing up every day for a great number of regular blogs. They all give me creative things to think about.
Someone in the neighborhood showed up on my doorstep last week with these two really young kittens and said I 'had' to take them. I don't know this person very well, but she seems to think she knows me well enough to do something like that. I had brain-freeze and didn't refuse at the moment. I love animals and believe they need to be taken care of if you're going to have them. I need my head examined. My life is really complicated enough with just trying to (still) sort things out from Randy being gone. I am struggling with what to do with the kittens. I have taken them to the vet for initial checkups and shots. They were only 6 weeks old. What to do? They are adorable for sure.

Covid 19 and the lockdown have had many unexpected consequences. I agree about being more anti-social than before. That and I get so anxious when I have things (like luncheons with my friends or meeting with my quilt group) to go to and especially if they fall the same week. I know things will get better, I'll get better but, it's going to take a while. The kittens. . . I don't know, you're nicer than I am.
it's always good to see you, whenever and however ... my introverted self totally understands
Robin--Why does it feel like such a relief when you have someone else who shares those same feelings? I am exactly that way about having to go out ANYWHERE. I become so anxious...and I'm trying my best to space trips out 'into the world' as far apart as I can. Hugs, dear Robin.
Liz--You are always so encouraging. You always make me feel good. Hugs to you, dear friend.
Same here. I just go to the grocery, the work place (hospital), and home. Although I did see my grandbaby this week!!! Those kitties are so darling...I love them, although I know they must be work!
Oh, Angie, what a challenge! I think kittens are like raising kids all over again. As Robin said--you are nicer than I am, or maybe you were just in shock that they did that to you and couldn't think quickly enough to refuse.
I do not consider myself an introvert, but I am a homebody, and COVID has made me more so. Sometimes it about takes a crowbar to get me out of the house when I have to go somewhere. I have dealt with anxiety in years past, but thought I had overcome it. Seems that COVID has brought it back into my life to a lesser degree. I can relate to much of what you are feeling, but I did not lose my spouse and I can only imagine how that exacerbates those feelings.
I am a homebody and also feel even more so since the pandemic. I have my shots but still wear a mask in stores. The kittens may be a blessing in disguise. :)
oh lordy...the kittens....but i liked the above comment...maybe a
blessing in disguise....you'll find out
am glad you are here today. it adds meaning to my day...my sense
of Things...Thank you for posting and Love to you, Angie...
practicing living. Yes. Love that Very Much
Sending you love, Angie. Lockdown or not, your heart is still wide open. These precious kitties need you until they find their forever home. That's why you didn't say "no". Hugs, my friend, so good to "see" you here again!
Julie--Lordy, these kittens are a handful!! Their antics crack me up, but girl, they are a lot of hard work. I'm just now starting to let them explore for a few minutes in the living room and the Kitchen/dining room areas. Then back into the larger of the bathrooms in this house. Marlee is being really good about them. She gets extra love and treats for tolerating them. :)
JanetO--I was BLINDSIDED by this person; and my Mom raised us to be nice...:/ It always bites me you know where!! LOL
Pam---I am already seeing that they could be blessings in disguise---if I can just get through the kitten phase. :)
Mrs. G.--It's wonderful to see you. I hope all of you are well, and that Little Hannes is as awesome and beautiful as ever! Hugs!
