Good morning. I have 8 ARD meetings today. Will be glad for it to be over. Running by the grocery store after work, then coming home to chill out.

My woohoo is seeing a young man who hasn't seen me in several years. He said "you haven't aged at all...you look good. I look 20 years older.". Made me feel great!

Hope everyone has a good day.

Yesterday was a long tough one. I buried a good friend and came home to a dead dog....I knew the dog was on his last leg. He has been sick. That wasn't too emotional, but I was on my own and had to drag him across the yard...I pretended hen was a giant limb. I had to bury him. Yuck!

Karla,

Your day yesterday tanked.  I have buried many friends over the years and it is not getting any easier and it is never easy to bury a pet.  Will wipe me out when mine passes. 

Off today but have some details of life that need tending.

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

Good morning everyone,

 

Well we broke the record of number of days over 100.  During the heat wave of 1980 I drove a car with no a/c. Don’t know how I did it.  Guess being 18 helped.

 

It’s going to be another busy day at work and I am not ready to get started.  Tonight I have a date with the TV to watch Survivor and Big Brother finale.

Karla, sorry about your lose.  It is not easy losing a pet they became part of the family.

 

Have a great day!

 Morning Everyone,

Karla....I am so very sorry about both the loss of your friend and then coming home to dealing with your dog dying.     I don't know how you did it.....I personally don't think I could be bury one of my dogs.   Praying for you and your friends family for peace.    Not much going on today.   I get new lenses for my glasses today and I can't wait.   Hopefully I will be able to see better with them.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

KARLA-you are my hero! NO WAY I could have done that!! Please tell me it wasn't sweet Limo. It's odd-I deal with deceased HUMANS all the time..but I'm useless with animals. My 76 year old mother had to drive 7 miles to come to a dead bird off my front porch, so I could leave the house. Had it been a dead human, i could have just rolled it up and moved it over!..Go figure..

Delayed sympathies in the loss of your friend, from earlier this week. I wanted to express sympathy earlier in the week, when you first mentioned the passing, buy, when I went to post that day OH had one of those little "glitches" and threw me off. I truly intended to go back-but was at work-and you know how THAT goes!

SUPER congrats on your WOOHOO!!
