(The original “Fresh Hell” post, in case you’re interested.) What can I say? Life just keeps getting better and better!
Maybe if I don’t look at her no one will realize we’re together.

I read recently that journaling is a great way to improve mental health. I’ve always considered Bitey Dog to be my journal, so I thought this would be a nice excuse to play online more. However….yesterday it took my PC an hour and a half to do computer-slowing scans, and by the time it was done I no longer had time to work. Today stupid Windows Updates stole over two hours from me before I could sit down to journal. I talked to a friend this week who had to make four phone calls to four different representatives to re-schedule a charitable donation pickup. If someone really wants to help us with mental health, make effing things work right the first time!!! Sheesh.

Spring is right around the corner! Soon flowers and butterflies will be everywhere. Bring some of that springtime joy into your home with this handmade Butterfly Quilt.
A handmade Butterfly Quilt would brighten your guest bedroom with a patchwork look reminiscent of the quilts Grandma used to make. The soft, cozy quilt would welcome your guests and help them to feel at home.
Handmade Butterfly Quilt, and other fine gifts, are available from my shop at L Bowman Studios.


Just…{{{{hhuggggsss}}}}}
😆. Thanks!
I have several things I use to maintain good mental health…one of them is staying married to a Computer whiz/IT guy [disclaimer: just an ordinary IT person who made an ordinary living and is an extraordinarily decent person]. The other one is living with dogs, and I see you have that one covered already.
I think I need about 10 Murphys to keep me sane dealing with technology.😆
😊
(By the way, congratulations on the ordinary IT guy/extraordinary husband combo!) ❤️
Thank you; I think I’ll keep him.
Good idea! 😆
DEAREST LESLIE
I SO TOTALLY UNDERSTAND YOUR PLEE TO THE WOLD IT ECHOS MY (WHY DOES EVERY THING I TOUCH GO WRONG ?? IF YOU ARE SHEDDING TEARS JUST KNOW I TOO AM
I DONT HAVE ANY ANSWERS I JUST DONT WANT YOU TO FEEL ALONE IN THE FIGHT. COS SISTER FROM ANOTHER MOTHER YOU ARE NOT ALONE
SENDING HUGSSSSSS AND LOVE
ME AND THE TRIBE OF MANY PAWS
Every time I think I’ve landed in something miserable, I think about you. I know what you are facing is so much worse. I hope there are some good moments between the bad ones for you! ❤️💕
Oh, gosh! Egads! My goodness! 😦
Poor you! I am so sorry to hear about all of this! 😦
What you said in your last line is so true!
Many (((HUGS))) and Much ❤️❤️❤️
PS…I must say, what Murphy said made me laugh. A much needed laugh. It reminded me that I’m sure Coops felt that exact same way many times. 😉 😀
Aw, I was hoping to make you smile! 😊❤️
(Things must be bad if we can embarass our dogs!! 😂)
reminds me of the time I had a UTI and Max decided to dawdle in the field when Mom had to go, so I dropped drawers and peed under a tree. (It’s totally blocked from any view) Max gave me such a look, and headed back to the house. 🙂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Oh that made me smile!
In my case, if I could avoid going, I would be very happy. 🙄
yes!!! I hate all that. Hope you feel better soon!
That would be nice! 😄
Yes, mental health would be much improved if anything damn well worked without spending hours on sorting things which shouldn’t need sorting.
I think more of us would be sane if that happened. 😆
Technology can be hard on your mental health and energy.
It’s making the 70s look like the good old days! 😆
