One of the greatest things about my blog, is the feedback I’ve gotten from people that have known me for years. It’s the first time they really seen into my life on a daily basis. The truth is as soon as the how are you feeling question is asked, I immediately, say ok, how are you? I mean really what was I going to say to them, I had an accident today I peed my pants or or maybe I…
Last night I went back to the condo for the first time since we put the offer in, which was back in September. The first question my Mom asked is do you still love it, the answer was absolutely. I’m so excited it is so gorgeous. The first thing I did was walk over to the balcony and look outside and I was not disappointed. The view is even better than my picture show. Her cat was sleeping on one…
I’m very chipper this morning. I slept in. Both dogs let me sleep until 8:00. However, most importantly, my leg strength, or I should say what normal strength they have, came back. I stopped using the bathroom a million times throughout the night and I haven’t had any accidents since Thursday. The chances that I really did have a UTI and needed the antibiotics are pretty good. The doctor even said in two days you’ll know because your MS symptoms…
I’m coming back in my next life as my own dog, what a life they have. Every morning I wake up and before I even get out of bed, it’s morning puppy time. It’s scratching bellies and behind the ears with smooches on the head. Then it’s yum yum time. A phrase both dogs know means food. Zoey jumps out of bed for the preparation of her yum yums. Marshmallow is getting older, he comes when it’s ready. After breakfast…
For the first time in a long time, I put in my morning affirmations an openness to meet someone. It’s been probably close to a year. My future person, if there is one, isn’t on match or plenty of fish. If I meet someone it’s being at the right place at the right time. Who is my guy? Well I can tell you who he isn’t. He’s not a sex crazed nympho-maniac. I don’t think I was ever in this…
“Zoey No, Zoey leave it”, two phrases I repeat at least fifty times by noon. Zoey’s 13 month birthday was yesterday, isn’t it supposed to be better now? I guess it is, she stopped eating the coffee table and my dining room chairs. She also stopped eating the tote that holds her toys. However, she is still a very large fan of coffee and if I forget and leave my coffee on the couch unguarded, she knocks it over to…
Happy Birthday to this special puppy. Zoey came into our lives a week before my beloved Boomer died. Convinced she killed him, irrationally I admit now, I would get annoyed that she was a puppy and was so needy. She wore me down with her adorable face, sweet disposition and cuddly ways. I realized very soon she was my gift from the universe. She still has her puppy ways. She tries to drink my coffee every morning. She chews up…
I think I can still do things but I can’t. Today was one of those mornings. My coffee pot broke. I have one being delivered today from Amazon. I wanted to go to a local drive thru place to get a cup of coffee. Well after my fall on Sunday night, nobody wants me to leave the house my house without help. That’s still not a feasible requirement since the increased nursing hours are a few weeks away. Anyway, that…
My mother and stepdad aren’t animal people. They don’t dislike them but neither of them grew up with animals so they never wanted one. I was only allowed fish when I was younger. Imagine the horror when I came home with a bunny my senior year of college. Let’s just say the bunny ended up at a pet store before I moved back home. Within a month of me moving into my first apartment I ended up with 2 cats….
I’m 15 workbook lessons from the end of my year doing A Course in Miracles. Not that it means anything really because on day 366, I’m just going to start again. Why? Because now my mind is trained differently and I’ll understand the lessons differently. I’ve learned some amazing things over the year, about myself, miracles, my relationship with God and forgiveness. I felt like telling the story of my most amazing miracle this year, which was my puppy Zoey….
