You never know who you might have saved by just giving them a smile - someone in deep depression may have seen your smile and it changed their whole day. I know someone out there cared, I do!

To be honest, it’s better than getting covid. I know a few people who have had it and it’s awful
Amen.
Another I'm missing is CarolM...I felt rather grotty through the morning and started to perk up about lunchtime. By early evening I was feeling a lot brighter and now feel more or less back to normal. Hopefully that’s it now?
No. Get one. Most people aren’t getting side effects badly. And what’s a couple of days getting tired compared with potential hospitalisation and long term illness from actually catching covid? I know which I prefer!
I was told that once by a person that I said hello to. I was just out walking. I know in this day and age mindset it may not be wise but... I still do.?

I do it too. We used to be able to smile at someone but not anymore. So I have started saying good morning or something. Just this morning in the Safeway parking lot, some guy says, Wow what a beautiful rig, I said what a beautiful sweatshirt you have on...so then we stood and talked for almost an hour. It was nice. We didn't exchange names, but he was wearing a sweatshirt that read...
Vietnam, 1967, Tet Offensive.
My generation, friends died, and friends were ridiculed, a whole generation changed.
I forgot to say we used it on the slugs that looked like jelly fish. I just put a dish of beer out for the snails that don't carry a shell around.?
Thank you for sharing that. Yes times have changed a lot, but at least smiles are still free! It can cause another smile and in your case, a lovely conversation.
grotty = off colour, unwell, unpleasant
Your frogs and birds will enjoy making a meal of them.
I just flick them into the shrubs.
I've been wondering where and how she is too.
Hopefully all is well and she's just busy.
Yea I somewhat worry about that ? I'm unleashing a bunch of crazy birds. It's a bit better than poison though.
I'm going to keep doing it. I wouldn't want to live in a world so isolated that you can't even smile or give an encouraging word to someone ?
Completely unrelated. Do people in the US say "across the pond" or do people in the UK say it? Anyway, I am near Crossgreen on B1066, Workhouse Hill. It is very pretty, Iʻve passed some pretty houses and lots of fields. Actually, I am not there personally, but am there on a virtual race. I donʻt have any friends so I join virtual races, that way I get to see lots of places that I canʻt go. Goodness, I sound so desperate.

Nobody is a worse sick person then my husband. He once got the stomach flu for 18 hours & called his dad up & told him he was dying. Had to take the phone away from him & explain to his dad that he just had the stomach flu. This was after going to the store 3 times to get him something to drink.

What makes it worse is if he gets a cold, he refuses to take any thing & just sneezes & coughs himself silly. I'm downing anything to relieve the symptoms.
