Please continue to take care. Think of your neck like COVID19, things might have begun to loosen up but continue taking precautions to avoid a flare up.

What dughlas said! 

[dughlas]

Okay, I don't want to be a whiner but dragnabbit my head aches.

Maybe, providing he remembered to put his pants on today ...

I thought it was Mr B who liked to go around pantless...

Oh! And maybe you..... when you're wearing one of your skirts oops! kilts.  

And hi, dughlas  Hope you're having a good day.

Great minds ... keep it up and we'll need to consider inducting you into the Wonder siblings ... ooooohhh, then we would be the Wonder Sextuplets.

Okay...

Although I've been hanging around this place for about a year now, I'm obviously still really just a newbie...

So I have to ask...

Apart from obviously you and Gary, who else is in this Wonder sibling herd?

Maybe take a break from the screen and go lie down.

Talking of going pantless made me wonder if being a military commando means they actually actually have to go commando...

I'm doing well. I have close to full mobility in my neck, but it is still aggravating. I slept good too.   How's life going for you?

That good news. Fingers crossed it's keep being better 🤞🏻and a good sleep is so important.

The last couple of days life has been... mentally exhausting and frustrating. I had a good cry yesterday afternoon and I felt a bit better afterwards. I don't want to talk too fast but today was a bit brighter

Though you guys and this place always are a bright spot even when I can't see the light at the end of the tunnel

Every year I send Emi poetry prompts for National Poetry Reading Month.  I contacted him at the end of March to see if he wanted me to forward the prompts to him still.  He replied right away that he did, but didn't make any other comment.  

Thanks, Val,   I stupidly didn't try his email  Maybe he isn't picking up his mail at the mo or not near a post office. i know our was closed for a while.

No, not in ages.   Both are still in school, right?

I'm afraid I don't know as I am not online as much as I would like to be and so don't alwasy keep up with who is where, when.

Hey Caz, no I haven't. I know Emi logged in a couple of months ago and that since his mother's death life was hard for him, the grieving, taking care of the home, his dad and family... I'm afraid his own life and desires aren't/can't be his priority 

Emi hasn't logged on since July 2019. We usually send letters at Christmas but i didn't hear from him. Then this Virus hit and I was worried. But, Val said she has heard from him so at least he is still communicating. I know life is hard for him i was just worried.

Hey, Bertie.       Morgan and I are still working our way through the leftover taco meat.  Tonight's dinner: sandwiches on cheddar-jalapeño cornmeal waffles.

Maybe you got there sooner, but you were also a lot more sure about who had used the word than I was.

And life for me today (which has only 45 minutes left) has been very good, thanks for asking.

Hope you're having a good day as well!

Gary, dugh, Bucket, Litlover, and me  and now apparently, you   Welcome to the insanity!    

So now I have to ask a couple of supplementary questions before agreeing to accept any invitation...

(1) What is the history behind the Wonder sibling herd?

(2) Is there anything special I have to do, should I be inducted? Secret handshakes, initiation ceremony,  monthly (quarterly, or annual maybe) dues to be paid, oath to be sworn, virgins to be sacrificed at certain phases of the moon, or any others of those sort of things? 

I wouldn't like to walk into something completely blindfolded, you know.
