Looking after ourselves

Re: Living with Ourselves

Hi @Sophia1 Tired & brain drained.

Yes I'm well-acquainted with those.

I would also say that my garden looks tired & sad.

Or Baked in an Oven, as the Summers here are getting hotter, with the heat lasting months longer than it did decades ago.

My plants are doing so much better, since I am hand-watering daily with a hose.

Although I cannot possibly cover the whole back yard.

Thanks Sophia.

I'm trying to take good care of myself.

Finding that simple task much more difficult recently.

I seem to have become much less tolerant to living alone, & having no regular company.

After 13 & 1/2 years of living alone.

Am even having to resort to playing background music at home (ABC Jazz or ABC Classic) - To simulate the sounds or feelings of having physical human company.

Feels somewhat silly to do that with that intention - Yet it does help.

Re: Living with Ourselves

I dont have much of a garden here @Adge  but am resisting watering it. So next  time I water it , it will spring to life like the desert lolo..

yeah, I have lived alone at least last 8-10 years . tv on in next room does make a difference hey.
