love little doggies

Our older little dogie Nelson died last winter, he was old and had been sickly for a long time          he did lay in the dining room and watch as i helped  Anita to bed one night. and when i came back he was gone, he now lays in peace in the edge of the back yard.      since then we have a new little lover, her name is cujo, 24oz of fierce bodyguard who is sitting in my lap and licking my thumbs as I type, she had a favorite toy , a little stuffed thing i called a rat, she loved that thing.     well it got lost, i didn"t know where it was      well i was cooking out today and found it in the back yard, how it got there i do not know.       anyway I picked it up and brushed off the grass and when i walked to the den door with that rat!!!!!!     it was like a christmas morning for a child     she was so excited to have her rat back, and has not let go of it all day, I love little dogies and they love me!

old age...... no such thing!.... you are as old as you think you feel, myself, i guess i have been lucky, i am 63 but do i feel or act like a 6 yr old, oh heck no! I love going to the pub on a fri or sat night, loud music (which i don"t always like) but there are time"s when a local band play"s  some classic rock and i"m in, i will deal with the rap crap, buy a total stranger a beer at the bar and just enjoy the atmosphere. it don"t cost a lot, i think the most i have ever spent is $12 and that"s cheap to make life time friendships.I have this place i like where i go and i feel like the old Norm guy on the T V show cheers, everybody know"s my name, Kyle  & Tim the bar tenders set me up and i get a lot of freebie"s sometimes! and i do not even ask!so i look forward to my Friday or Saturday nights with friend"s.  So some Thank you"s are in order, Thank you Woodie"s sports Bar! Thank you Angie for helping me discover this wonderful place, and thank you Better Bodies day spa and Polly for those 1 hour massages that make me so relaxed i do not want to go out!! i am truly blessed!

Right now i feel so blessed,  yes i have daily chores, routines , that"s become numbing, and even mad at times, a routine that never stops, it"s 24/7 and i can predict what's  almost to the moment what is going to happen before it happen"s. it"s been that way for a while, and very stress full for a long time, However, through a special friend i have made a few years ago who spotted my stress and made some changes in my attitude i owe a debt and will ever be thank full,with prayer and this friendship I have managed to find some weekly me time, sometimes i feel selfish about that me time, however my friend has convinced me that it is ok because she knows what I do. So after taking her advice I have discovered some new friends, i may never meet again but they were friends for a night. I have discovered that i have an out going personality that attract"s people, I do think i will see my friend"s again that i have made. after being 12 yr"s of an introverted home body, i now walk with confidence everyday knowing i am going to meet people and make a new friend. All thanks to prayer and a very strong lady that will tell you truth and what"s on her mind, no holds bared. Thank you Jesus and Angie for helping me understand that a little me time helps everyone around me, not just me! Head High looking forward!

boy, has my life changed in the last couple of years, i"m sure everyone"s has, everyone"s is different,.people come, they go, and life go"s on, everyone"s is different. loved ones leave for whatever or no  reason, God called them home, stuff just happens.we live we cope we move on.. But things happen in life that can change you and it also come"s outta no where. well it don"t it"s God working.  two years ago i was on  the verge of a big time depression, home bound, doing the same thing 24 hours a day 7 days a week, but a persons path crossed my life and things have changed, this person explained to me that i needed some ME time. this person got me out of a depression, saw that i have new glasses, new cloths, new cologne, dental work done, made me pretty and gave me confidence again, I still stay home and do what i have to do, however a couple of times a months i go out, and when i do, i am walking proud talking loud and drawing a crowd! A new life  reborn thanks to one person, to this person i owe! the moral of this story is that in any one moment, a total stranger can walk into your life and change it for good forever!
