 Good Morning Everyone,

I guess no one wants to get the train started so I will do it.    Thank you everyone for the prayers for me and my family yesterday as I had my 15 yr. old mini Schnauzer put down.    That was so very hard to do.    I am OK though although I miss her so much.    My WOO HOO for today is I made it though the day yesterday.    Hope everyone is doing well and having a great week.     I can't believe how quickly this year is going by.....almost over and the holiday's are upon us whether we like it or not.    Have a wonderful day everyone.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good morning,

Viv, I know how you feel we had to put one of our dogs down about 8 years ago and it is hard but also know it would be selfish on our part to make them continue to suffer.

Only got a couple of hours of sleep as Dad kept me on my toes last night. He is having CT scan this morning and Doc will decide if he needs surgery. My sister should be here shortly to relieve me so I can head to hotel to work. Other sister will stay tonight so I can get some sleep.

So work and getting sleep is on my agenda today unless they decide Dad needs surgery then I will be heading back up here.


Hope everyone has a great!

 Saundra.....I've been praying for you, your sisters and your Daddy.   I know how difficult it is dealing with older parents with health issues.    Enjoy the time that you have with your Dad while he is still with you.    My Dad has been gone for over 22 yrs and my Mom has been gone almost 5 yrs. and I still miss them so much.    I have had to take LOTS of our dogs and have them put down and it never gets any easier for me.    I always leave in tears and usually cry for days or weeks about my decision.    Pray your Dad gets better really soon and they can resolve his issues.    Please keep us updated on him.   Have a good day.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good afternoon Vivian !! (((((((Glad that yesterday is over for you)..........that had to be really difficult.

I've only had Alex for about 4 yrs and I can't imagine having to make that decision. I wuv my puppy so  much           I know what you are dealing with....

I have an appt at the ortho today for a Synvisc shot in both knees.
It is #1 of a series of 3..........the ortho really recommended it and so I hope that it works / helps for as long as they say - something like 16 - 18 mos - give or take...........kewl...

Its scares me when I looked up  - I some things that I hope I don't have to deal with as side effects.   I have felt like crap since Saturday night ( vertigo spells) and even though yesterday was better........today is worse !!  horribly.            Maybe I can go home and rest !!  heheheh  Yeah right !!

Not much on my agenda....appt at 4 today and another one for something else at 6pm !!  then off to work at job#2.......

Synvisc good stuff!  By the time I got to the third shot I was ready to start giving them to myself. 

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

 Thank you Phylllis......I had said for about a month that everyday when I got up was going to be the 
"day" but it just got to the point that it was getting SO bad that I couldn't prolong it any longer.   It IS a very difficult thing to do trust me and I hope you don't ever have to make that decision to do that to Alex.     I do miss Lucy alot but it will be OK.    I have LOTS of pets to give me love and help me to get over this hurdle.    Hope your shots work for your knees and make you feel much better really soon.   Love ya girl !!!

 Sorry to hear that Vivian, I have to say my pets are big. no dogs here i have cows and calves. In fact my newest baby is my profile picture. Hwe name is Blondie. But I do feel your hurt and sadness. When we have to sale a pet it makes it hard cause you dont know whats gonna happen to them.

 Thanks so much Doug.    Yesterday was much better for me.   I know I made the right decision for her.    When I got the mail yesterday there was a symphany card from my vet telling me that she left this world with dignity and grace.    That made me feel much better ( i am one of the people who can't stand to watch them die because of my decision to put them down ).   BTW....Blondie is really cute !!!  Have a great day !!!
