Someone give me a good reason for getting dressed and going outside. I need some fresh air and some sunlight so I can come back in and do some cleanup inside the house.

This caring about things but not caring enough is getting old. It's a heavy burden to carry and difficult to shrug off. It just won't fall off!!

You only get a {{{{{{bearhug}}}}}} from me after you've got dressed and gone outside!!

One of my favorite things... Footprints. "I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints it was then that I carried you." Maybe I should read that more often, too.

..."because you need some fresh air and sunshine." Sounds like a good enough reason to me. That's why I have animals. At some point I have to go outside and take care of them. They force me to do something and get out of the house.

I will give you a big hug too....{{{{{September}}}}}
I didn't care about going out today until I went to take the trash out and my cat followed me outside so I sat down with her and I felt the sunshine on my legs and watched my kitty enjoy it some much that I had to stay outside even for a little bit. Give it a try September just push yourself to go out even if its for some small reason like getting a coffee or some household item you may need. While you are out you might just find yourself wanting to be out for a little longer than you anticipated.

Fuzzy, I don't blame you. LOL I'm too ugly and unkempt right now for anyone to get near me. Ok, so if I want a hug from you, I need to get dressed, brush my hair and my teeth... BRB...

Oooooh! I know, Inky! But He's just not carrying me to the bathroom and then outside... ARGH! Like I said in another thread... He makes things we need available to us and we need to reach for them ourselves... Ok! Ok! mmmmfffff!

Weeellllll.... I'm down to one animal; my cat, and he stays under the house during the day. He won't come out even if I call him. I've got plants outside waiting to be given a drink of water and I need to check on the ant baits I set the other day.

I've had such stinking bad luck with my seeds this year! Why should I go out and water them?

Ok, ok! I've also got some lovely live plants that need a drink... AND Jerry has poured two forms of cement for the patio. I should go out and see what kind of a job he did. LOL As if he'd tear them out if I don't like them. I should be thankful.

That's what I'm hoping for, Sunshine, that a ray of sun will catch me and pat me on the shoulder then shove me down to a sitting position near my plants. LOL It's just getting my big, fat *** in motion!!

(S-i-i-i-i-i-i-g-g-g-h-h-h!!) Ok... ggrrr Ok! I'm going, I'm going! Maybe I'll come back with the fog gone from my brain and a smile on my face. Keep your fingers crossed, ya'll!

All of you are wonderful friends!

Good Luck September!

Ok, ya'll! I got dressed and all that stuff then went out to the back yard where my plants were calling me. Sat out there and watered them with my back to the sun. Sat out there long enough that all the old folks around here started coming out and were looking into the sky. The airplane carrying Reagan's body was due to touch down in a few minutes. Well, those of us that were outside hoping to catch a glimpse felt like fools when one of the neighbors came out and said the plane had already touched down. So we all went in to watch it on TV. Dang it! I missed it again! One thing for sure, though! We could hear the canons going off so I guess I can tell my grandkids that when they're old enough to understand.

Now I've got a headache and I'm not sure if it's because my BP is up or because I blubbered like a fool watching Nancy Reagan. If I was here, I'd feel like jumping into the casket with my husband. I sure hope I go before Jerry does!

Sept - are you reading this now (Saturday morning, 9am)? If so... GO OUTSIDE! I'm about to go do a few laps around the block and see what my neighbors' gardens are up to.

Thinking of you! LMo

We are ALL going to be a-ok!

[Fuzzybear]

Will someone push my butt outside please?

[Rapunzel]

Come on Fuzzy, let's go for a little jog! On your mark, get set, let's go!

LOL Actually, no... I've been sitting talking to the "old fart" and the kid from down the street. I just shooed them out the door to go get the tile for the backsplash in my kitchen and some more transfer paper for the artwork I'm doing on the computer. It is now 12:30 PM!

As soon as the sun goes behind the back of the house, I'm going outside to pull more weeds in my backyard garden. It was fun being outside yesterday and I actually have 2, count them... TWO slabs of cement next to the garden where I can roll around and mess with my flowers. Maybe I can get "O.F." to pour some more cement today.

Ahhh! I wish I could at least walk the distance you're going to run, but alas... Riding my scooter somehow doesn't add up to excercise, does it? LOL

Once I got moving yesterday, I found that I started caring just a bit more about doing some of the things I've got lined up that need doing. That doesn't mean that I won't need another shove sooner or later, though!

[SeptemberMorn]

UMMMMMF!! AAUMMMMMMFFFF!! You'r butt won't budge, Bear!!

Ok... how about this? Have you ever smelled someone's skin when they've been outside soaking up the rays? I love that smell! Have you smelled someone's clothing when they've been outside all day but not necessarily been working? MMMMM! Did you know that even when it's overcast outside, you still get benefits from the fresh air and whatever rays from the sun penetrate the haze? Yep, you do! Doesn't matter if it's cold or hot, fresh air clears our mind, our lungs and gets stagnant blood, hormones and good chemicals flowing in our system again!

Now... get chur butt outside, you young whippersnapper!!! No chocolate for you until you do!

[Fuzzybear]

Thanks for making me smile ((((((((((Susan, Wendy, Tomi))))))))))

It's dark here now though

Tomorrow I will get some of those rays on my fur!!

[SeptemberMorn]

Well, heck! What was wrong with me thinking it was daylight there, too! Go catch some moon rays then! LOLOL
