Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
Speaking of meet and enjoy, I am heading to our DeYoung Museum next week to meet a friend and see the Lempicki exhibit. Will be the first time I have been there since I managed to knock down a perfectly nice doctor, aged 85. Or we knocked into one another and he was the one to go down. A bit nervous. Will be watching where I am going this time!
I am assuming that NO ONE here has heard from Need. I do not believe she would voluntarily leave us this long with no one here having an explanation; she was too devoted to this site. It makes me really sad not to know anything about this. Now RealyReal is off grid, too? But I think she does have a busy life other than us.
Bundle, you will be missed! I see you out there making another collection of one-liners for us, or hoping we will forget the others you did before. For me, that's a given, that forgetfulness thing.
We had a horrible time getting my step daughter to understand that. She tried so hard to bring her 2 huskies, in are home, and are 3 cats hated them and they stayed in the basement when she was here, trying like heck to pawn her doggy duties off on us. In the end it ended very ugly, which is sad for her because, me and her dad , could of been much help to her in life, but she didn't want that help she wanted to take over my home , with constant dog fur, honestly they where just destroying everything.
I do know that is not what you are doing, but I'm a firm believer, that if say my stepson, that lives upstairs, wants a dog we all have to want a dog also. If any of are kids just assume they are moving in and bringing there dogs with them, that is a GIGANTIC no from both of us.
I love dogs, but I won't even dog sit. I had a neighbor wanted me to feed her dog while the went away, I said NO, because I new that would keep happening, I have a life and I don't want my time taking up with others pets. If I want a dog I'll get a dog!
I do on occasion, sit for one neighbors dog, but that's only because it when he absolutely needs to do something.
I can imagine have OCD it must be even harder for mom.
Alva, I just googled your museum, look like a really great place to go. Hope your trip goes better this time,!
And to add, I see a lot of people my kids generation, waiting my generation to treat there dogs like they would if they were are grandchildren.
I suspect that is a generation gap thing.
And there is nothing wrong with it either way. But I think my sons generation shouldnt be angry or annoyed at my generation if we don't.
