Good Morning 🌞☕

A light rain is falling,
Temps have gone down.
Thoughts taking over,
But I'm not gon' frown

There is a higher power,
Some see & some blind,
But that doesn't matter
As long as we're kind!

The world that I see
Is full of good stuff.
You just have to look
Beyond all the fluff

Take time to be kind;
Religion is moot.
One second of your time
Can help someone root

☮️🕊️May Peace & Joy be in your heart today
May you remember to share that same Peace and Joy around

My poor wife is taking the death of our dog really hard. I feel so helpless.💔

@Tacitus_Kilgore I'm so sad for you both. I've not too long ago felt what your wife is going through now. What kept me going was knowing my husband was feeling the pain along with me. He just kept reminding me of good & goofy things our dog did. Other times, just sitting beside me, not saying anything, helped as well. Virtual hugs sent to you both, as the two of you grieve a loyal part of your family 💔

A wise friend said, "I haven't given up on anyone who hadn't already given up on me."

I keep thinking about that.

I feel a lot better today. Cutting someone off who shouldn't have been back in my life in the first place, a good night's sleep, and making a responsible choice about what to do with my weekend seem to have helped my whole situation quite a bit.

@IrelandTorin When I called them about the meds, they told us when we come in they'll try to see if they could change up meds to satisfy the insurance companies & that in the meantime, take whatever works to alleviate the aches.

Thing is, Dr has re-written & had prior approval to prescribe, yet after pharmacy accepts & tries to fill, denied again🤷‍♀️ Dr was highly upset when I called; they're investigating why this keeps happening. Not pharmacists fault; they're trying to help as well

@Tattoomonkey29 😮 Thanks for that! Bookmarked it & will read in full when I can read the whole site w/out being disturbed. I definitely need the education. Looks like we could definitely qualify for a discount based on the quick once over. That's a main thing w/us; $$ We have option to pay full price for Rx💊 but price is beyond ridiculous for folks on Medicare (Hubs on Medicaid) & with having drug plans; what good is a drug plan if you can't get RX'd drugs when needed?!

One of my concerns is that the reason judges have been ineffective in controlling TFG's outbursts and threats inside and outside the courtroom, and have not jailed him in spite of repeated violations, may be that TFG's Secret Service detail has warned that they would not cooperate with and might obstruct attempts to take him into custody.

Despite very heavy rain, we had 44 runners turn out for this morning's at Danehy park, Cambridge, MA. A few were visitors who came for last weekend's Boston Marathon. An Australian, who has run 289 parkruns at 90 different locations, posted the best time today. I am always in awe at the performance of older runners - he's in the M50-59 division.

Good morning, CoSo. Slow day today, I think. Need to do some promotion and I think I'm gonna start flogging book 4 of The Martiniere Legacy as the intro to the Martiniere Multiverse. It did kick off the Multiverse books, so....

What music streaming service would you recommend? I am getting rid of iTunes. I won't use Spotify because they platform MAGA and whackjobs.

Convo reminded me of why we try 'alternative' meds. My Husband & I both have RX's for pain, written over 3 months ago, sitting at pharmacy, unfilled. Drs wrote after extensive convos & physicals. INSURANCE company refuses to approve 💊 for us! Pharmacy & Drs have had convos with insurance companies, but they won't budge (yet); we're having "Too much pain & need to use too often"; won't approve. 🤬 I have diagnosed Chronic Pain & mild/sev RA, Hubs has constant pain post-surgery; OTC not effective.

@LnzyHou 🤷‍♀️😅I don't even know what all that means either. I get confused w/the many Deltas, THC's CBD's, hemp-infused, yada yada Effects are all I pretty much know; will my pain go away or not, & is it going to calm Hubs or not. Will be having discussion w/Hubs' Dr & mine on our next visits for better what-to-use or not & pros/cons of. Until we're more versed in it, using sparingly. With 24/7 pain, I use stuff to lessen the severity & to alleviate the nausea from meds. Hard for me to swallow my💊s

@LnzyHou I have no idea; gotta ask my daughter; she took me there one day I'd gone for groceries. A tobacco store you just pull up to & ask for it. She thought we'd benefit from it physically & emotionally by not having to look over our shoulders while dealing with uh, street pharmacists🤦‍♀️

🤔 Our different Drs told us both to use 🌿 for pain instead of RX'd opioids, but never told us CBD bud was effective too. Wonder why??

👵🏽👵🏽👵🏽🤦‍♀️🤣🤣🤣 Ooooohhhh; no wonder so many 🌿 posts; today is 4/20!

I just thought everyone was 🤔 ...Oh never mind🤣

I've discovered some potent, legal❤️CBD around here. Pull up to the store & order. Good for my pain & for Hubs' cognitive issues.

Smells highly illegal though👵🏽🤣

Some facts of appreciation about marijuana since today is 4/20
