That quote I posted about "Beware strong drink -- it makes you shoot at cops and miss."
I know that one's accurate.

Gold Medal for sure Alty.
How is everyone? I can't be the first one up... geeze
YAWN! I'm up, I'm up! Starty? Did you leave?
What time is it?
10:30am! :eek:
I slept in. :(
Good girl... you needed to do that! I got a load of laundry done, made the boys clean their room through tears and arguing with each other, a few hits and a good timer and a "in yer bed all day" threat, I got my bathroom done... floors and all, in the middle of the second, but my back started hurting so I though what a better way to relax and settle my back while talking to the greatest people on earth! I woke up during my last dream of my addiction to cideo poker, I was winning... what a great nights sleep:):) HAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh Starty, you can always make me smile.
I woke to a little voice saying "Mommy, are you going to make breakfast today, or can I do it?" That got me out of bed really fast!
So Sydney and I made breakfast together (by the way, I hate trying to pick up egg off the floor) and then we woke up Jared (actually, Chewy did) and we had breakie. Daddy missed it, he's still asleep. MEN! ;)
Sydney has two birthday parties to go to this weekend. Today and tomorrow. My little social butterfly. ;)
Awww, so sweet.
I felt the boys in my bed today watching the Alaska thingy where they go out and try to live like pioneers... they love that stuff, so it was quiet and sweet this morning till I had to be the drill sergeant... geeze.
Birthday parties smirthday parties... I swear they are every weekend and we skip quite a few of them. FOur kids... lots of friends, it get expensive.
I am going to go up ricer and get some Tomato plants today from a guy that works next to me... his wife and him started too many so I don't have to.. how sweet is that?
Have a great day today!
You to Starty.
I'll try, but really, I think the next few weeks are pretty much just about survival for me.
On top of everything else our dog Indy is on his last legs. He's 14 years old.
He's been getting worse and worse these last few months. Remember that this is the reason we got a new puppy, because we knew Indy wasn't long for this world and we wanted to socialize Jasper with another dog to make it easier on him when Indy passed.
I don't think Indy will survive the weekend, but if he does we'll be making the appointment with the vet next week to have him put to sleep. He's in pain, he can't walk without help, it's time.
He's comfortable now, I gave him a muscle relaxant to help with the pain, he's sleeping in the garage, we can't get him in the house, he's too heavy to carry far and he can't walk the stairs.
I'm trying to find a vet that will come to our home. I don't know what to do about the kids. Part of me wants to let them be there, because they love Indy, would want to be there for his final moments. The protective mom part wants to spare them this pain. I'm going to talk to them about it, explain things, see what they want to do. I don't know the right and wrong in this situation.
Sorry to unload. I'm just really in a bad place right now. Jo, Indy, it's too much. :(
Awww, so sorry Alty, gosh. Now just remember that you can let the kids say their goodbyes and maybe draw a pic or give a few words of thanks for being their buddy. When Sara (our old dog) passed, that is what we did then we called my brother and Dustins dad to come and take her to be put down, we just couldn't stand it. I slept on the floor with her the night before (still have that blankie from 12 years ago) and I loved her all night until I needed to finally get some sleep. The funny thing about it... I wish I would have been there now. I feel for you ALty... HUGS to the Indy... poor baby
Thanks Starty.
Indy has been getting lots of love and kisses. I don't want to touch him too much, you can see that it hurts him, but I did sit with him, his head on my lap and just stroked his head while telling stories about him and his puppy days. I can't believe that 14 years went by so quickly.
I know that he had a good life, a long life, but it still hurts when it's over.
Just in a bad place today, but I'll be fine, I always am. :)
Ya, you will be fine. Just remember we all love you and you have a great family to love you too!
Sorry Alty that so much is happening all at once. Please take care, 14 years is a long time for a little family member. Know its hard letting go.
Take care.. Love and hugs.
Joe
Hi you Joe... caught you... finally hahaha
Maybe not... LOL
I have tried to catch you, but you do not want to get caught. Lol
Not that I didn't want to, I just never log out of Facebook, so it probably looks like I am there... plus we have the pool up and going, the kids are constantly going in it, so not much time to sit on the puter... they are really great swimmers, but still I got to watch them so they don't have accidents... HUGS Joe!
Hugs Starty, Good to see you today. Enjoy the weather. I was outside today for a bit with Little Cheeks on his tricycle. Lots of fun. Take care Starty and enjoy your time with the little ones. (;
Joe, did you ride the tricylce? You did, didn't you? ;)
My attempt at humor.
Thanks for all the hugs everyone. Hugs back.
I'm not really in a chatty mood. Time to get my little princess ready for the birthday party she's going to.
I'll be back later.
Sorry that I've been such a bearer of bad news lately. I feel like I'm bringing this whole place down, I'm sorry for that. Should keep my troubles off here, it's not fair to all of you.
Love you all.
Later.
Alty
