Friendly Fill-Ins Week 489

Friendly Fill-Ins Week 489

 

1. My plans for October include _cuddling with my cats, reading, listening to music, cooking, cleaning_ and _nap_.
2. Sometimes it is easier to _sleep_than _to stay awake__.💤
3. I didn’t mean to _make some bad decisions_, but it turned out that way.
😮💀4. I’d rather deal with a haunted _house that is a Halloween preformance__ than a haunted _house that I live in_
_. 

A LITTLE ABOUT ME TODAY AND A PROMPT

 I enjoy the different fonts I use on Blogger. That makes me want to be more specific in my post. I write more, and my blog posts get personal. That's for me. As far as you are concerned, whether you get to know me better or not, we can still enjoy each other. That is my point.

Monti, my orange delight, is back on his medicine. The one for behavior modification. Yes, the turkey still sprays if not on his medicine. It's better than cleaning nonstop, but it never looks like I do. To make the situation of Monti's spraying lighter, I think about the song  BACK THAT THING UP BY JUVINILE whenever I see Monti try to spray in my presence.😂As I said, we got his medicine filled (prescription), and last night seemed like a good night with no spraying!

So today we may take a road trip, after lunch, which will do us all good. I may be away from my blog at my computer desk, but I will have my phone if the mood strikes me. That is, if a story forms in my mind. So you guys hold the fort down until I get back. See you again soon!

Oh, for now, I have a prompt to answer. The famous Friendly Fill-ins:

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN, FOR FRIENDLY FILL-INS:

1. Eating ___FISH WITH THE BONES_makes me_NOT HAVE PATIENCE.

2. I don’t mind paying extra for the MAC N CHEESE BRAND IF IT'S THE BETTER ONE.

3. _WALKING INSIDE THE COOL HOUSE__ was the best part of my summer.

4. I can’t wait to __DRINK HOT CHOCOLATE AND EAT MICROWAVE POPCORN__ this autumn. 

Friendly Fill-Ins

 1. I define success by _making it through the day with faith, love, and hope.

2. _My life as a traumatic brain injury survivor was (and is) an awkward moment.

3. I learned to _walk, talk, see; including other motor functions all over again_ when I was _17 1/2_ years old.

4. I can only _take on more responsibilities_ so much _ before I _become numb or overwhelmed_.

Granted, some days are better than others. Usually, one step at a time helps. My cats, their sweet cuddles, my friends who understand, and people who aren't pushy; all this makes the day smoother. Oh, and my blog and blog friends are the best.

Have a good day!!!

Much Love, 

Heidi💜Monti, Tux, and Smokey🐾

Time after time

Inch by Inch

Moment by moment

Evermore

Standards tell that

Times are

Open to

Offences and are

Delicate feelings that

Stay

Twisted and

Inexhaustible,

Limitless and no trust in

Love, that's true

What I say about it

 The time is right for a Friday Fill-in:

My plans for August include looking forward to cooler weather and Fall season.

2. I exercise my brain by writing .

3. I try not to let food go to waste.

4. I know it's going to be a good day when everything seems to fall into place.

In case you are interested today is Friday so,

Friendly Fill-Ins are easy to do. There are four statements: the first two statements are provided by Ellen of 15AndMeowing, and the final two are offered by Lorianne The Menagerie Mom of Four-Legged Furballs. They try to make sure the statements will be fun to both answer and share. The linky will be posted at or about 12:00 AM on Friday. Please head over to one of their sites, link up, and share your thoughts!      

Here are this week's statements with Heidi's responses underlined:

1. Well, the Bible, every time I read a passage, it hits my soul differently. Also, I would reread the Twilight Series over again if I didn't have so many other books I want to read.

2. My flooring needs repair.

3. I've been working on cleaning, cooking, downtime, and staying cool.

4. I finally figured out that other people's opinion of me doesn't matter; I need to love myself.

Friday, what a time to blog about it...

Friendly Fill ins

 

1. A day without _BLOGGIN'_is like a _DAY_without __LIGHT.
