Luna- Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Here I am online with only a motley assortment of bots. It's cold and rainy here and has been for several days. I know I should have planned something to do today to keep the blues away, but I didn't. I should have planned to be with someone. My reclusiveness has turned very nasty on me and I'm bitterly regretting that I was so arrogant as to believe I didn't need other people irl. I'm trying to just stay with the feeling and accept that it is as it is, but it aches in my chest when I cry. And there is not even anyone around here to huddle with just for a little bit. Is there?A consolation is that after today the whole sad, sorry mess of another holiday season will be over and I can put it behind me. Move on and see more people and build more contacts. Chalk yet another year up to experience and try anew. I say that every year.Anyone out there who wants to pop in and say hi? I'm not sparkling company but if you're feeling as I do, you probably don't want bright and shiny. Loneliness is eating me up these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luna- Posted January 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 *smile* thank you finding, good to see you. Happy New Year. My cats want to know if your cats need any fleas 'cos they have plenty to spare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finding my way Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 my cats say thank you kindly, but no thanks. They would like to know if your cats need a new friend, he is a rescue cat in need of a home... he very pleasantly meows nonstop, won't settle down, and refuses to honor anyone's personal space:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna- Posted January 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 My highly territorial cats say he sounds perfect. They are sharpening their claws already. I apologise for their attitude.(Cute! I love a cat who talks. And I am quite happy to have my personal space invaded by a furry one - have been working on just that for weeks.)

finding my way Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 YaY!!! pal, yer goin' to SA!!!! This guy seriously thinks he should be alpha in any situation. It is deeply offending to my other cat who thinks SHE should be alpha in any situation.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna- Posted January 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 I'll bet he is an unneutered male. We have one of those show up every few months and try to move in.Err. Just before you put him on the plane. My cats are giving me the death glare and holding out their claws. I think he might want to reconsider.Why can't they all just get along? (Hmm, I guess I should ask myself that ...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finding my way Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Neutering has occured, though bloodstream & brain haven't completely caught on. I'm hoping time will mellow him!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luna- Posted January 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Guess who's working on New Years Day? Mark's Mentalhelp newsletter just landed in my inbox. Unless it's all automated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finding my way Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 Yep, and he thinks then I like it rough and goes after me with tooth and claw:eek:. He isn't all nastiness, he just needs to quit requiring the world to revolve around him and so I am enlarging his experience of the world to the great outdoors.... good luck dominating that!

IrmaJean Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Sorry I'm late in being here. I hate those waves of loneliness! I get them too sometimes. I had to work this morning and have been running around all day. Getting a chance now to relax...just in time to go to bed and start all over again. There was a time, when I was a child, that we had a dozen cats at one time. :eek: Rumor got around town that my mother took them in and they would just appear at our doorstep. I love kitties. Hope you are feeling better tonight. (((((Luna)))) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna- Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Thanks IJ. I must remember to plan things to do for these days. Deciding to just relax and do nothing just doesn't work for me, I just run downhill. I am making plans for today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mscat Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Well I felt like adding my 2 cents worth. I went to my brothers house and got drunk, slept over his home(sort of) and went to my own place , crashed on the couch for anther 5-6 hours with my 2 little female dogs. Yep, i use to have kitties, was a total cat lover, still like them , but my son is highly allergic. my 2 friends were so happy we were home. They are the love of my life besides my own child. It's already after 8pm, the dishes are piled up in the sink and I stillneed to make my son dinner. This month is gong to be tough financially , trying to catch up from the holidays, and not get so in the hole. LIving on disability and with a special needs son , already in low income , but nice apartments still it can be tough to make it through the month. Happy New Years to All and, I very much do understand being alone .Yet I do not mind . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna- Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Hi Mscat, nice to see you again. Hope you didn't/don't (dunno with time zones) have too bad of a hangover. I left a sinkful of dishes too, plus a pile of laundry, didn't bother to make dinner just for me. I went to bed at 6pm, partly because I was very tired and partly because I felt so lousy I just wanted to escape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrmaJean Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 3:10 AM here. I usually check the site before I go to work. It's pouring rain outside! A bit odd for January. Whenever I have the lonely spells I get the strongest urge to connect with loved ones/ friends. Hope today is busy and content for you, Luna.

flander Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 My cats and I greet you and yer cats, Lunabelle!!!!! happy new year:)Can your cats tell my cat to stop pooping on the floor when she's mad that I'm away for too long?There was a time, when I was a child, that we had a dozen cats at one time. :eek: Rumor got around town that my mother took them in and they would just appear at our doorstep. I love kitties. The most cats I had when I was a kid was 20. They were barn cats and loved fresh milk. Eventually, my aim was good enough to hit them with a squirt to keep them away from the cows (& becoming flat kitties). Some even figured out that a well timed meow got them more milk.

Luna- Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 My cats are giving your cat a knowing grin. My cats also suggest that Danni's rescue cat comes over to keep your cat company when you go away. Then we all cross our fingers and hope like hell he doesn't spray!Flat kitties awww no! :eek: 20 cats sounds wonderful. My two have those well-timed meows down pat even though it rarely get them any more of what they want. You grow up on a farm, flander? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flander Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 yes. I guess you could consider it a 'hobby farm' by modern standards. My dad had other jobs, but it was a way to feed the family, help the kids earn money, get them used to hard work, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luna- Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Sorry to hear you were in the ER again, Linda!I hope you take this monumental calendar event and call it a new year for LUNA. New start, whatever you want to call it, take on the world, go kick some ass and go get um girl!!! Oh, I wish, Linda! New start, yes. Take on the world, kick ass, go get 'em - I'm not so sure. Is that what you're going to do? You sound strong. I am so glad 2010 is over. Do you know this month will be our one-year anniversary of being here on the forum?I am going to find a job this year. Being unemployed is doing BAD things to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
