[Kira]

Hi @Innocent Forever and thanks for opening today! Look, I brought along a friend for you ^ ^ ^ ^ 💕💕💕 His name is Barry and he's very friendly!

I haven't looked at the questions or anything yet. I just wanted to stop in and say hi as I haven't been in here for ages!

I was also wondering where the birthday party is... someone's having a birthday today but I'm not sure if they want people to know or not. Clearly I can't tag them Maybe they'll send a sign?

Enjoy your Friday everyone

Look Inno, it's five o clock now. I've been sleeping now for about 3 hours but at least we've moved ahead one hour. Let's see what's going on when I wake up... Be back soon.

now awake. i showered, washed some dishes and made coffee. finishing breakfast and i expect i will be ready for sleep shortly - that’s easily another hour of sleep time. i think its more like 5 considering its 10ish and was 5ish. that means we’ve moved ahead 6 hours. fortunately i am not applying any logic to this logic. 😎

The Qs. don’t let me forget!
and i see there is a lot but some are also hidden in your paragraph @Innocent Forever so i’ll just pick them out and add them to the list.
• How are you all doing?
for myself i am doing fine just sleeping. it is turning out to be so appropriate that we are having a sleep café today since that is what i’m so inclined to be doing today. thanks.😴

• What are your plans for today/the weekend?
Inno!? my plans are to sleep, y’know? (throwing the question back at you!)🤗

• What is something you are grateful for?
that i always am able to find a glimmer of hope. i’m guessing that this proves to me that i’m postive in my beliefs - that i continue simply because i began and that i’m hoping and believing that eventually that glimmer of hope will infiltrate - reinfiltrate into everyone’s lives in a positive way also.

• What's something that made you smile?
ever? today? while i slept? idk but for sure the existence of thriving dandelions.

• What have you accomplished?
continuing on as best i can.

• What has someone done nice for you?
(recently?) one particular “like” on one particular post of mine sometime in the past 24 hours made me happy just at the right moment.

• What can you do for someone else?
well i so often feel so ineffective that i wonder if i can or not. i am full of self doubt. and i seem to be full of assorted unhappy things to say. i just try hard to combat that with my secret positivity. i hope that somehow i can make it available enough that someone picks up on it.

• Today - Thursday was the last day pesach/passover so was up until now changing over and clearing up the house.
to me Inno, this is a question simply because i have not celebrated pesach in such a long time because i kind of lost touch over the years. and need to respond and say that since i rarely hear “pesach” even being said, your saying it here immediately threw me back to my childhood when my untraditional family always nonetheless celebrated pesach - fond memories!

• make this a fun - and sleepy?
yes, these days, especially sleepy.

• Maybe the title should be changed
this is a question right? no, i think the title is perfect 😍

• How many.posts can we get this thread to be?
i’m doing my part to make it a million

• How many before I wake up?
i think maybe and hopefully i guaranteed one (1) but i bet there will be (or already were) more.🤔

What's something that made you smile? - The facial muscles around my face

yikes! do they really do that?

[Reaver]

I don't really ever have plans and I wouldn't say that I accomplish anything either, sooo...
One thing I'm grateful for, which is also a thing that makes me smile, is this community. Thanks for the tag @Innocent Forever

What have you accomplished? Woke up, started working. Ate dinner, dinner is the mid day meal while supper is the evening meal here in Texas.

we did this too on occasion. my mother always made a point of letting us know that supper was the later of the two meals particularly if the dinner was served earlier than what we’d normally expect dinner time to be.

That's major... can I ask what stimulus money is? Good luck with your pills... I hope your pharmacy can help...

I will go to the pharmacy and sort out the pills tomorrow. Whatever my insurance won't refill right away my psych pharmacy can probably fill. It is a big deal, I have to pretend nothing is wrong while at work.

In the US the government is giving every person $1200 to help stimulate the economy given it is broke due to the corona virus. I recieved mine the other day and spent some of it and am saving the rest for an emergency.
