Sorry to hear about your dog MKAC. Losing a pet is awful, is this the one that had been sick?

He is a hero for pulling his shambled life together for his kids and grandkids benefit and to extend his life long enough to give them good memories.

The memorial flag and metal on the obit ticks me off though.

did he actually have a burial with military honors and all. if so then the military would check it out first but otherwise not

Thank you. Yes it's the one who has been sick. Earlier in the week. I got some prescription, high dollar soft food for her and she scarfed it down. She seemed better for a couple days, but had not eaten anything after about noon on the 13th. We knew it was coming, but still . . .

I was having trouble getting moving so I tried out a new recipe someone gave me, called Boozie Brownies. It has three layers, the bottom is a brownie, then a layer of creamy stuff -- butter, confectioner's sugar and Kahlua. You top that with a layer of melted chocolate chips, combined with button. I cannot imagine this is good for my health but it made me feel better emotionally to make it.

(((MKAC))) so sorry about your baby.

I have noticed with my great grandparents and animals that one gets a burst of " everything is great " right before they pass. Very strange, I know it's hard MKAC... If you need to talk , I am always here for you.

the mother is out of surgery and doing fine. she just called .oops i forgot. i just can not be very sympathetic. i asked my husband why he thinks that is and he said because of the way she treated you when you cared for her after her knee replacement. he is probibly right. i do dislike her strongly but i use to be able to pretend but that is getting harder as i am getting old and ornery

Feb 15, 2013, 11:10 AM

Sounds like you're becoming more authentic, which is super. It is coming slowly to me, but it's coming.

We have a magnetic cat that has been popping up around our house for over 10 years... we can go months without seeing it and them bam...its on the lamp. No one admits to putting it anywhere, I chalk it up as one of the great mysteries of life. Maybe you should find a friend for Turtle rock or make it a scarf. LOL Knowing men they probably peed on it... and who would want to know that?

granite1 · Feb 15, 2013, 12:01 PM

ack ack ack lol did i say ack. now making it a scarf is funny

What is going on with everyone? People deleting their accounts and not as much couch activity? Are planets aligning or what? Heck a meteor hit Russia today and Earth will barley be missed by a giant rock today? What gives?
