Goodbye 2016

Goodbye 2016

Dear Universe, A lot happened in 2016. I became disabled in 2016. I stopped working and started the process of both disability and Medicaid. I obtained a 3rd party trust to shield my income. I cashed in my Ira which wasn’t much but gave me a little something. I was approved for disability, Medicaid, the 3rd party trust, and my long term care policy. I was set up financially basically as I was when I was working. I leased a…

Plant based diet week 3

Plant based diet week 3

I guess I can talk about my week review of my plant based diet eating. I told you my week in week two wasn’t the greatest week. I wasn’t exactly prepared. I ate a lot of meals from Veestro which were high in fat but it sticks to the plan. When I went away to my sisters for the holiday it actually was harder than I expected. Since we ate out two different nights, It was tough to be vegan….

I’m thankful for Boomer

I’m thankful for Boomer

Yesterday was a little better than the day before. Today my heart just feels very heavy. My sister said something to me when she first heard that was very profound and meant the most to me, “you connect with the souls of animals. The friendship and companionship you find in them is as deep as some of my human friends.” I never had many friends but I’ve had many pets. I’ve had rabbits, 6 cats and 3 dogs. I would…

My four walls of solace

My four walls of solace

I’m going out for the first time today since it happened.  Unfortunately  I still have multiple sclerosis to deal with and I have doctor appointments and physical therapy.  I prefer the solace of my home. It is my comfort zone not only because of my MS but also for the memory and sadness of Boomer. I’ve been sleeping which is a good thing although I hate walking into my room. I hate knowing he isn’t coming into the bed to…

My heart is in pieces

My heart is in pieces

The outpouring of love and support has been so kind. Everyone who has ever owned and loved a pet understands the pain of losing one. Anyone that knows me, knows what Boomer meant to me. He was MY first dog. My dad had dogs when I was little but I didn’t live with my dad. I didn’t grow up with dogs in my day to day life. Boomer came right before my divorce started. We picked him up in April,…

A piece of my heart passed on yesterday

A piece of my heart passed on yesterday

He wasn’t eating well and stopped mostly when I went away for the weekend. This wonderful boy waited until I got home to say goodbye. It happened so fast I didn’t know he was about to leave us. If I did. I would have held his paw the whole evening. I will miss him so much.there will forever be an absence in my heart. No other dog will ever be my Boomer. I’m so grateful for all the joy he’s…

Holiday vacation starts…..NOW

Holiday vacation starts…..NOW

Driving up to Saugerties. That’s  by the famous Woodstock which actually DID NOT have the famous Woodstock concert there.  It was actually held in Bethel about 43 miles from Woodstock but thats  another story. Unfortunately leaving my couch potatoes behind  but cute puppies aren’t invited to the party I hope if you are traveling today, you have safe travels with little traffic. Remember parking is easy and abundant for any of the last minute shoppers out there.  Have a happy…
