A Little Under the Weather


Hello All, this is my normal posting day, and I was going to tell a story about the last peace-and-justice issue to which I responded. But I find myself today to be a little under the weather. Not quite equal to writing. And so I’ll just say hello today and wish you well.
            I hope to post tomorrow. See you then.


This is Eliza, the cat with whom I spent twenty and a half years. 
She accompanied me to Missouri and died here.
 I'm so grateful on days like today 
that Ellie, Maggie, and Matthew,
 who came to live with me after Eliza's died,
 are my companions.
I need to remember on these Meniere's days 
that my life is greatly blessed.


            Peace, Dee

    Dee, I'm sorry you're not feeling well today. Will rest help any? Hopefully it's not as hot where you are as it is here!

    I'm so sorry you're under the weather, Dee, but am glad you're taking care of yourself by getting some rest. I hope you feel better soon! By the way, I loved hearing about Eliza. What a beautiful cat companion and how wonderful you had the pleasure of her company so long!

    Take care and feel better soon. This moving stuff is hard to handle and I think it has knocked me on my behind a time or two in the last weeks as well.

    Love and light.

    Take care of yourself, Dee. I am enjoying the second book very much. Contemplation of each of the 12 habits is slowing me down; I am in hurry to finish it. Your humor and elegant writing are shining through me right now... :-)

    Take good care of yourself and get better soon. Eliza looks just like my Sindbad. I have to show you a photo of him. He lived with us for 18 years. He was our last cat and I am sad about that.
