Thanks for this Midnightmom. My moms remains were interred this morning and it was a hard day.

So....we adopted a 3 yr old...75#... lab a week ago.  She's a ball of happy, friendly ENERGY!  
 

It helps.....a bit.  But if I hadn't needed a walking dog, we would have waiting a bit longer.  We're still missing Koa so much. 

 

Congratulations on your new dog MtRider! I missed what happened to Koa?

I’m so sorry Joyfilled. My mom passed on October 24 after being on hospice for several weeks. Doesn’t matter if it happens quickly or over a long period of time...it’s just incredibly hard to say goodbye.

Turn it upside down if you need to soak something up from your carpet...for example if your dog pees on the carpet INSTEAD of the pee pad....stand on it until it’s not soaking anything else up. You’ll be able to tell because it’ll remain dry.

I agree with you Mother....there is a wealth of information here that should be bumped up. 

Happy birthday to the both of you! 🎊🎉🎂

Hope you had a good day!

Happy birthday!🎊 

Happy belated birthday! 🎂 

Happy birthday!🎈 

Hope you had a great birthday! You are missed!

Welcome back!

Wow Euphrasyne....that sounds really bad. Please take care of yourself. 
Yesterday I checked myself into a hotel room for an overnight away from home. I do this once a year for my mental health  ....I read and sleep a lot...  Literally 15 minutes before I was going to walk out the door I got a call that my mom was having another seizure episode related to her dementia and was being taken to the ER. This happens several times a month.  I still went to the hotel because with COVID restrictions I can’t go into the hospital....because our cases are going back up again. I’m fortunate that she’s in a good facility because they handle everything...and she was back in her room in the early evening....and doesn’t remember any of it. 
Now that I’m back home I’m looking around and realize I have too much stuff. Always happens after I stay in a hotel.... Time to do some decluttering....

Hi Becca Anne!

Little sister, I would order now just because it might take a long time for delivery. I had to order a new recliner for my mom last summer...ordered in August and it didn’t come until end of November. Furniture store said they were having a lot of issues getting things delivered.

AND.......earthquake in central California.  Anyone here affected?  Dogmom?   Midnight?  ???

 

MtRider  for all who now battle heat and   6.0  or 5.9  ???

Our blinds rocked back and forth and the couch jolted. My daughter called and said her apartment building was swaying and folks I know had waves in their pools. No damage near us though.

Wellll.....I’m late to my own party, lol! Just seeing this now...thanks for the birthday wishes!

Euphrasyne so glad you have good insurance. I continue to work for my good insurance....

Trying to get things done as early as possible. Yesterday was 102, today is supposed to be 106 and tomorrow 113. Deep watering my garden. I can’t deal with this heat. And just tired today. My mom had a bad night last night...called 12 times between 10pm last night and 8 am this morning looking for my stepdad who passed 20 years ago. Sigh.......

Mtr...so glad you didn’t get seriously hurt.

Oh no euphrasyne! That looks so painful... hope you heal quickly.

However, when the zombie apocalypse hits you are all welcome at my house. I have plenty of beans, rice, toilet paper and booze. Should get us through a couple of weeks.  B.Y.O.S. (Bring your own Spam). 

I have SPAM Jeepers!

It’s 102 so it’s too hot to move now.... I volunteered at my local animal shelter and walk little dogs...did that early this morning. Right now watching the news about the swarm of earthquakes that hit California. We had blinds moving and the couch jolted but nothing major.

Yes! I’m still celebrating my birthday from yesterday! I have Haagen Daz ice cream to share. And I’ll provide an activity....my family did paint pouring and we had a blast. I’ll bring paint, canvases and all the things so we can get our creative side on...

 

 

Hope you had a good one! 

What’s the difference between the leaf and the waving hand?
