I’m very concerned about my Marshmallow. He is over 11 years old now and lately he’s not eating well. I’ve tried mixing many different things into his food, including his favorite, peanut butter. He might eat a few bites but then walks away. I can get him to eat a little more by feeding him each piece hand by hand. What starts at 8:30!with a 1/2 cup of food sometimes isn’t finished until 2:30. Then it starts all over again…
Well sometimes my MS issues lead to funny outcomes. I got my mom to bake Mandel Bread. These are cookies very similar to biscottis. It is one of those recipes passed down through the family for a long time. It use to be so hard to get the dough mixed so we never made them often. Then mom got this great mixer and she can make them in record time. After she cleaned every closet and draw in the house…
I woke up early today. I feel good, rested and ready to start the day. I wake up every morning happy. How can I not? The first thing I see are smiles My Plakie Humpty Dumpty dolls I’ve collected all my life. They always make me feel happy. Then I have my Zoey who is cuddled up next to me. She’ll stay sleeping until she senses any movement from me and then her eyes are wide open. Marshy is usually…
I have only one thing to say this morning Move over!!! I this is my bed I sleep next to the bar on my back. I don’t toss and turn. I only move my head from one side to the other. My biggest no movement is tossing the blankets aside to get out of bed for the bathroom. Then I pull them right back. I take up very little space. My Zoey and Marshmallow sleep with me every night. Every…
Good morning, happy Monday. I’m definitely on the recovery side of things and I’m so grateful for that. I’m hoping to play mahjong for a little today with the ladies in my building. I might not be able to play all day but I’ll be thrilled if I can get through a few hours. I canceled therapy for tomorrow because without an aid with me I am worried I’d be too fatigued on my own. That leads me to today’s…
I’m back with an agency and as of 5pm Friday they had no one for me on Monday. We are off to a great start. They told me it’s because of my dogs. They have difficulty placing aids in households with animals. Well I’m not giving up my dogs so if I have to change agencies 100 times, so be it. I’m sure my current aid, whom I love and done all this stuff for, won’t be taking time out…
My vacation comes to an end today. We are leaving for home in the early afternoon. I had a wonderful time with my family, as I always do, but my other family is at home. I miss my dogs. I know I sound like a crazy person to some people but I do. I’m with my fur babies 24/7 and when I leave for a period of days, I miss them. I miss them the most when I’m going to…

My poor Zoey. I took her to the vet yesterday because she’s been limping on her back paw every now and then. Other times she is fine jumping and running like normal. I thought it was a strange quirk. It’s not. Her left back knee is popping out and her hopping is her actually trying to put it back in place. There is a name for it but I don’t remember it. It has something to do with the lack…
My dad sent this to me yesterday Any person who is an animal lover especially a dog can truly understand this video. Brings tears to my eyes actually. I blog about my dogs often because they are members of my family. They are my kids who give unconditional love at all times. They ask for so little in return other than food (ok well maybe mine beg) and a little attention. They always keep me company and they don’t talk…
