Hi and Happy Sunday my dear friends,
Friday we took our older dog to the vet. She need to have her teeth cleaned sonically. With blood work and IV the bill is 600 bucks. What the f&^% I didn't spent that much for my children to go to the dentist. Feel like the neutered me with this one.
Not much going on, same old stuff, Pink is so happy she is buying this and that for the house. Me I'm doing one or two tasks a day and napping. So although my body is still hurting, it isn't getting worse.
Tuesday we are going into town to get the dog shaved, to hot for the big heavy coat she wears. Rocky doesn't have that problem thank goodness. He just gets his twice weekly bath. He loves them. He gets a treat afterwards. Did I mention this town only has one traffic light. I didn't notice until we went to the drugstore last night.
Speaking of the drugstore, did you know that Rite-Aid has some great tasting ice cream. Plus it is priced fairly.
Pink wants me to say hi to everyone, she is beginning to ask about people by name now. Now I am not breaking any confidentiality thingy, she is a sufferer and is awaiting cervical fusion at two levels.
Ah, speaking about spines. Mine is getting spasmy (is that a word?) it used to contort but with the flex tubing it can't get all twisted like it used to. So the stuff is working, although i haven't had any issues until this week.
Gotta go, time to send hugs to the ladies,

I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
Same here, I tell Richard about one and another and he's also starting to know my online people. lol
Funny thing this am, he says I will take a puff or two it helps my back, (he's planting big cedar trees on the grounds).
It made me think of the post here on maryjane.
So it must do the trick for his back too, I figure he only had a touch here and there in order to get an appetite, so there it is, proof that it does help his back problems.
I didn't even mention this post, and when he mentionned it, I went ahead and told him about the post here in the chronic pain community.
I did smoke in my younger days, but with my lung problems today, I don't think I could ever smoke that stuff again.
You guys sound happy about the new house.
That's good!
Have a glorious day my friend.

Now Rocky the Chihuahua turns one on Cinco de Mayo, he got a shower in the kitchen sink. I brushed him out and cleaned his teeth and ears. He loves the bath and never needs shaving or haircuts. Just his nails. Thinking about placing him in the Roman tub next time and let him swim while he bathes.
Have a wonderful day all. Thanks for the replies.
