Yesterday I had to put my dog down. He had cancer that spread to his lungs. After the vet gave me the news I took him back home with me. I wanted to spend more time with him and was hoping he would get better. I would rather have him die at home, but I didn't want him to suffer. He was so weak and I knew I should just do it. Aidan and I were with him. I covered him with kisses before and after he was gone. He died with his eyes open and just looked like he could have gotten up and come home, but he was gone. Now it is really quiet around here. I miss you Razzy. Sleep tight.
This was the lovely view from my dash-cam, driving home on the 5 freeway yesterday at 7:10pm. Oh Lordy lord!!!
This was back in 1985 or '89. It was the year my sis graduated from law school. The whole family was in So. Cal. for the big event and on this day the girls headed out to Catalina. You can see my sis in the background getting sick. I miss my mom she checked out too soon. I hope she is happy now. I want to let her know that I appreciate all of her hard work in keeping safe through all this crap that has been going on in my life recently. I know she is puttin' in a good word for me! Love you, miss you!
The middle one
I have wanted something in an animal print for quite some time. I really wanted a pair of flats with black patent and an animal print. We all know that I had nooooooo money for such things. When I was in Maine I just lost my mind. I was thrilled to see so much animal print stuff on the sale racks. My two favorite places to shop were TJ Maxx and Marshalls. There was a mall, but it was truly weak, and I couldn't and wouldn't pay full price for anything. I am a real bargain shopper. Now I know there are some things I want that never really change in price. If I want another Beemer. It's gonna cost me. But lets get back to the animals. My price point was $20. That's right $20. My coat was $29 and I had to think long and hard before I finally caved on that one! The wedges!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah! I just waited and waited for them to be marked down. There were a ton left as Bangor, Maine is not very fashion forward in the least, so I wasn't fighting anyone for the last pair. Finally, I got my black patent and animal print flats that I have worn out. I wore them in maine when I could. Had to make sure there wasn't snow in the forecast! Bought tons more, so I will be sure to show you later.
By this time I knew that I had to leave the department in order to get some alone time. Most of the time I would eat with everyone else. We could all sit down at the same time ( and they thought they were busy... ) As my time with them was coming to a close I found it harder to be there. The Bull shit was getting to me. So I would walk to the main hospital with a magazine and chill for a spell......... I was aching to go home.
Ahhhhh peace and quiet. Just me and my foodie magazine. I'm a happy girl!
Ohhh I need to touch up!, but I kinda like it it gives my happy head a glow ; )
While I was working in Maine the doctor decided to take everyone out for dinner and drinks. She picked up the tab for everything but drinks. The sad part of it was we were ther to say goodbye to HER!. She had given notice the week before and we wanted to get together outside of work. She refused to let us help pay for the gathering. So we all headed out after work. I think there were around 20 of us showed. It was a mega girlz nite out. I should say girlz evening out, cuz we were there in time for happy hour.
Dr. B smiling pretty for the camera along with nurse Jill who could not STAND me. She spent all night taking pictures of me. Maybe she wanted to post them on her facebook page. I don't know, but the next day she was showing all the pictures she had with me in them. I wanted to ask her for some, but I just couldn't be bothered. What a miserable person!
These are the youngsters. They thought Aidan was too cute! Especially blondie. Kara, the brunette was attracted to black guys because they have that cool about them, that swagg. I just had to laugh. My son swagg.......er......
Sweet Tea!
Carol was pissed because she let the time between facial peels go far too long. She made an appointment the following day. She was mortified when she saw her pictures and asked the nurse not to put them on facebook.........she did.......and those two were "friends".......women.
So that was another outing with the girls from work. We gave the Doc a big hug goodbye. Don't worry we returned the gesture buy treating her for lunch and gave her a few gifts from the staff.
Tiger Wins at Bay hill!!!!
.....and all is right with the world
