I have just recieved another packet of forms from the Insurance Company, some for me to fill out and a set for my doctor...lovely....
One question on this form asks: "What do you specifically do from the time you arise in the morning until you retire at night? Well HOW specific do they actually want...how many cups of coffe, how many trips to the bathroom....
okay I am a bit frustrated with this form and should not try to tackle the whole thing at once....do they want to know if I changed
Well our new little, and I do mean little (barely 5 ponds) girl is settling in. She is currently on my lap as I type...
Her name is Alyese but I think I want to change it..I have heard that if you change a dogs name they will not associate some of the "bad" things they have gone through...
she has taken off twice, once on me and last night John had her out..she stays with him in the back fields, but he took her up front and up the driveway she went..he can at least run...she made a left turn
Well I guess John & I are a little "crazy" we have just added another four legged member to our family.
I have a girlfriend that has a lot of health issues and 3 children. She adopted this little toy fox terrier 2 yrs. ago. She had some issues when Terri got her, she was not housebroken and she is hyper....Terii has not housetrained her and her husband is getting quite upset, so she has been tied out side or kenneled quite a bit.
She said her husband is getting frustrated with the dog
This is the second time in a few months the vacuum cleaner belt broke....
I went to the vacuum cleaner shop and I bought both belts (one for the self propelled part) figured if I have to change one might as well do both.
well the first time it took about three hours and a lot of @@##** words but I got them changed..... we don't have any close neighbors and the dogs ran outside..LOL
Last week the belt broke again....so my husband stopped they said oh, well we have a heavier duty be
Well I am a little over 2 yrs post stroke...I think John is finally realizing that I am no longer "super woman" and have some residual deficits....
He will tell me to remind hom of "something" remind me I have the water on, watering the plants so I don't forget to turn it off.... well I keep this in my mind a minute or two and then say "hey john, you have the water on for the plants..he looks at me and laughs...I said well I reminded you, so now you can't say I didn't
we get a laugh out of
My company has come and gone. It was a wondeful visit.
Has been a fairly busy week with company and lots of visiting.
My mother in law is visully impaired so she didn't want to do a lot of sight seeing or shopping, she had a great time sitting around and talking and seeing grand kids and family here.
She became very attached to our oldest minature pinscher."muggsy" he loved to sit on her lap and enjoyed all the attention from her..She even told him I think I will take you home wi
Company has been here from Arizona since Tuesday. Has beeen a bit hectic.
The quiet visits with Mom are great..It's when the grandkids get here ...8.6 and a very busy 2 1/2 year old

well I am sitting waiting for company to arrive...
My mother in law and step daughter are arriving today from Phoenix I am looking forward to seeing them both and happy for my husband. His step father passed away in February so we are glad mom is getting out and about.

while recovering she was mopping the floor
Well I am making some progress on housework...have decided it's not going to be perfect so will get done what I can ......
I miss Pippi and Mocha (our llamas) but it is sooo much easier without them, didn't realize how much time they take...
Made me fell good I pushed to find them new home as John was talking on the phone to his daughter and said...how much less work he has without them and he feels good about the place we found for them. He worked outside this weekend and got quite a bit do
I don't know why I am having a down day today.....trying to get this darn house in order, my mother in law and daughter in law are coming in 2 weeks...It takes me 3 times as long to get anything done....My mom always had a "perfect" house....I guess I keep trying to live up to her expectations (she passed away many years ago) I feel I am always trying to live up to someones expectations...my husband assured me the other day, it's okay..you do what you can....we are very lucky you can do what yo
sorry to whomever I ran out of chat on yesterday... I had just joined chat and I heard my husband yelling for me...the llamas got out AGAIN...this has been an ongoing battle for the past few weeks.. we have found them a new home and luckily the man taking them arrived shortly after we got them back in their pen...
we bought them shortly after we bought our 5 acres to help clear our land..they have done an excellent job and we have enjoyed them (mostly) except when they escape...they are fairl
Hi all ...I am a survivor in more ways than one....it has been hard being the "patient" as I have always been the "caregiver" the strong one. I lost my son at age 6 after 18 months of cancer (neuroblastoma) in 1972. My former husband had kidney problems and ended up on dialysis..I ran the dialysis machine at home for a little over a year. There was no kidney center near us..closest was 2 hours away so they taught me to do it....I was a widow at 30 with a teenage daughter.
I was a level A pha
