Good morning. Thanks for the cart. We're starting the day slow. we're moving to a different site this week so we'll do some stuff to prepare for that today. We're just in a different site for the weekend then back to this one on Monday. The life of living in a fifth wheel. It's good practice for us though to get our packing up and setting up routines smoothed out.

The packing for all those moves must be becoming a fine art! :) Any tips?

We use collapsible crates from Costco to put loose items in. We put the crates on the floor between where the slides come in. We also just through some things on the bed or within the towels.

Wild Gypsies ... that race out of Egypt ... didn't stop in Israel but Rae ly moved on ... causing scratch and smear across the sphere ...
 
Good morning! I bet a collapsible crate, uncollapsed, would be a great temporary place for a coaster and a coffee mug or tea cup. Of course, there may be better places. Anyway, it's ready. Come and get it.

Time to rise and shine again! The usual selection of warming beverages is once again available. Enjoy.

I’m in a bit of a funk today. I called Seelergirl for a chat last evening, and soon realized that she was upset. ‘Mom, I’ve been crying all afternoon.’

Her collage roommate’s son committed suicide yesterday. Although Seelergirl and Roommate had drifted apart over the years they still enjoyed meeting occasionally, catching up, sharing news about their children. Roommate’s boy was a couple of years younger than Seelergirl’s daughter, my Granddaughter.

I couldn’t sleep last night – thinking about the young boy just out of school, starting out in life and ending it so soon. His poor mother! And Seelergirl? I know she will worry about her daughter. I’m sure she wonders how Roommate missed the signs – if there were signs, if there was anything she could have done differently?

I may open a thread to discuss suicide.
 
Sorry to hear that news Seeler. It is always tragic when a young person dies IMO, and there is added shock of hearing that they died by suicide. Often there are NO "signs" in advance to parents or family - so nothing to "miss" & feel guilty about, but such a mix of difficult feelings for those left behind. I hope you will rest up today after your sleepless night.

Good plan. Perhaps include a link to the "If you need support" page in the OP (or I can add it in a post). It's the kind of thread where that reminder might be a good idea.

Suicide is definitely a topic that gets discussed a lot more these days. Won't ultimately stop it, but at least raises awareness and hopefully helps people who lose friends and family feel less alone. The taboos around the topic are still there (and, to be honest, Christianity is partly to blame for that taboo due to the teaching of the idea that suicide is a sin that leads to damnation) but it seems to be losing its hold.
 
Good morning. The coffee is delicious. Thanks.

I'm so sorry to hear of the suicide death of that young man @Seeler. Hugs to you and the family.

It is a rainy morning here. We are moving to another site in the park this morning. It's good we're not made of sugar. We definitely need the rain here.
 
Well we are all moved and the rain held off. It looks like we'll still get more rain today. Turns out the space we had for the weekend was available today, so we got to move directly into it rather than having to move again tomorrow. That will make things easier tomorrow. I go for treatment tomorrow and don't know how I'll react to the new drug.

Praying it’s an aphrodisiac.
 
Will be thinking of you tomorrow Northwind :) Hoping treatment will continue to go well.

We were at our annual street BBQ tonight - so much fun to see everyone, see how all the kids are growing and hear their stories and summer plans. I treasure our neighbourhood and the relationships we've nurtured over the decades.

Then we popped over to see friends who brought home their new little travel trailer last night - Little Guy Max - seriously, that's it's name! Very cool little unit - they will have great adventures ahead of them, once they grow accustomed to towing & setting it up. Such fun.

We are hanging around here this weekend - will take in the Canada Day Parade & probably the great fireworks display on Monday night - hoping for good weather. Have to do some garden tidy up at the 'old' church tomorrow - funeral there on Saturday morning & I want things to look a little better than they do right now. But other than that, the time is open ... I imagine lots of porch sitting ...

If you pray hard enough you will possibly prey on some weaker condition heedlessly and without the logic of thought --- strange logos!

Weird conscience ... making rackets in dark, dead spaces ... haunting to those that don't believe in such essences ... like displaced psyche ... plain and out of here as over the horizon ... a satyr? The devil as demonic thought ... interfere's with unrestricted desires in excessive freedom ... paralleling uninhibited hate for the unknown ... there are words an nu's on this that can tighten as noose ... Ju 'd as can be ...


Imagine thinking such manna of stuff when emotions are all that's required ... according to some sources as source Eire!

Good idea, Mandela. Please attach the link 'if you need support'. It may save a life.
