DAILY THREAD # 202🐾🤘🐕🐢🦎🐞🦋🌺

My post was the last..
And first😁

I'm couching it between shovel tomorrow and Monday
Winds up to 45mph
Might not be shoveling....

I got word last night that my ex-husband's widow (my kids step mother) passed away. We'd known each other since Kindergarten...grew up together...which in some ways made it easier for me to deal with her being such a big part of my children's lives. Same age. Same neighborhood. Same schools. Ha! Same husband. We weren't exactly 'friends' but it's still a bit sobering to know she's gone. I'm sad for her children and granddaughters.

Enjoy this life...as much as you can...while you can. It is so fleeting.

A Nor'Easter heading for my part of the world. Snow has already begun. Expecting 10-18 inches, but probably less right where I am close to the shore. My biggest fear is power outages. I've got my flashlights and battery powered radio...have to make sure the phone is charged up before I sleep. Not looking forward to the wind gusts. I'll check in as I can.

Vent away Jamie.

How dare that sister do that. If I know you well enough, no charges will be filed. I wouldn't either. Getting a trust worthy POA and be done.

Stay calm when the stuff hits the fan, let the sis get worked up, you are doing the right thing, deserve to be calm for it is what it is now. Cash cow has run dry!!


I have not shovel except for part of patio and a path to the trees and ivy in the back yard. Doodle is particular
about where she does her business. The scares her, my heart breaks.

As of 6pm we have 4 inches. had sleet and snow stop for a while. Snowing again. Do da do da...lol.

Pitmom, it is amazing what we can tolerate and live with. You just never know what will come your way.

peace all.

Good morning!
6in we have.. it is so beautiful!!!

Little did bit i want to share...

Hello ...

Such a nice day having sunshine today really lifts my spirit. It been a stormy few days snow is so pretty. Lickly not too much no snow shoveling.

The dogs and I went out and we trained around the yard running and obedience. Still working on the doggie battery buttons recordings. When a cookie ball is up for grabs the cookie ball recording on the button she pops the top of the yellow button. When she want to go out and run run run as the recording says on that black button she pops that one. Now working on the next button red. Do ya want a go see? Is recorded on the red one. So now there are 3 buttons to choose red, yellow and black.

Stay safe healthy and happy.
Hugs Chotti

One moment at a time HT. You are doing what needs to be done though I know it isn't pleasant. Keep hanging in there.

Do things to calm yourself. You have the power.

Hugs, Karen...

was hell. was brutal, was sad, was savage. It done.
More later. HT

i HOPE, BUT THE HATE AND CAPRICIOUS MALEVOLENCE IS GETTING TOO MUCH.
THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM. I FEEL MY EXISTENCE IS AT RISK.
THE SON HAS ADVISED OF MY DANGER.....MY OTHER SIS PARTNER DONE A POST ON INSTAGRAM
AS I WAS ATTACKED ON GOOD SIS BUSINESS PAGE. HOPING HE SEES SENSE.
BUT THEY ARE GATHERING THE FERALS, I FEEL IT IN MY BONES. HT

Thx mate.
Wilk take time to defrag. HT

Hi all...sorry I went MIA. Had to do alot of shoveling, so pain is up. Had to do alot of emailing, too. Plowing was horrible here.

'Mom' completed her first week of chemo with few side effects, so it looks promising. One more week and then a week off. Three rounds of this and then another CT scan.

Scheduled my own mamogram and bone density test for Monday, then a screening for Abdominal Aortic Aneurism (what my Mom died from). Insurance can't find me a local doc for the colonoscopy so that may have to wait a bit for all of this other testing...then I'll see if I can change my insurance plan back to Medicare.

My dog Tyson (was my daughters, she left him with me) may have a condition called DM. Sort of like MS for dogs. Vet scheduled for Friday. If I'm right, there's nothing they can do about it, no treatment, so we'll just keep doing what we've been doing and I'll keep him as happy and comfortable as I can for as long as I can. Some dogs have lived to the age of 14 with it...so I have hope!

More snow coming tomorrow...and Tues...and Thurs...oh, my!

Hi Pitmom,

So happy to hear that "Mom" is doing better. I hope that the chemo helps.

Sorry to hear that Tyson may have DM. I think I have heard of that before on the german shepherd site on facebook. I hope he will be okay. You are so kind to be helping everybody through things. It isn't easy.

I hope you have a good day today. Cold here in Michigan. -1 right now. It is going to be cold for about a week and then HOPEFULLY a warm up.

Take care all!!!

Hugs, Karen...

It was snowing when I woke up & didn’t stop until late afternoon. Funny thing is it went right to melting which is nice , then lite misting rain but the remainder will freeze hard as the colder arctic air moves in tonite. Icy roads and elec lines. Got the generator set out and gas all set just in case...

Good day to stay in & catch up on some projects anyway if possible. Just easy stuff like drawers and no ladders.

Right implant has slipped and back on Walker again. I need another revision . I cannot do it yet. To many nightmares on the last three...Major bummer.

And the good news is Roxie the border collie is learning a new button to push for outside.

Sending good vibes to everyone.

Chotti,

I am sorry about the implant slipping and having to go back to your walker. I hope that this gets remedied soon.

Your dog sounds so interesting. And smart, though border collies are very intelligent.

Pitmom,

I see nothing wrong with helping your daughter out, but I would make it a loan instead of outright giving to her. I know you love her and want to help as much as possible, but she needs to learn responsibility and I think paying you back would be a good way. But you are right, worrying never ends with children. But I think making her pay you would back would be good for her in the long run.

I hope everybody has a good day.

Cold here, in single digits today.

Hugs, Karen...
