In response to "Dogs"

Sorry about your dog's passing.
I can see your husband's point, which corresponds to mine with the passing of my cat. I guess you could get another dog if, ahead of time, you could guarantee a family member or a friend to take the dog, when and if you can't care for it.
In my case, anyone I know who lives around has a dog and no one wants a cat. In a dog's case, I would probably get luckier.

Thanks for commenting on my blog. You’re right, we’re quite lost, just the two of us without a four-legged companion. I’m sure we’ll find the right one for us soon.

In response to "Dogs"

What about making provisions for someone taking the dog should something happen to both of you? It seems sad to not share the love you obviously have for your pet.

In response to "Childhood memories "

I vaguely remember the Lone Ranger. I may have had to watch it on my grandmother black and white TV after the obligatory Sunday Dinner.

In response to "Childhood memories "

I vaguely remember Hopalong but really remember Bonanza, Rifleman and Gunsmoke more. My parents were huge western fans they used to read Zane Grey, Louis L'Amour, Elmer Kelton and Larry McMurty.

That's cool you tried your hand at a western.

In response to "Making sense of a mixed bag"

That was nicely done, Sue. I've done a couple of mazes. The last one I did in 2019 caused me to have a panic attack. Thank goodness my granddaughter was old enough to get me help.

Yep. My left eyebrow has never completely healed. Almost 50 years... a reminder of my stupidity.

I used to like Peggy Lee. But I didn't know Miss Piggy was named after her. Live and learn!

Improve yourself or die

"Blog City ~ Every Blogger's Paradise"
Day 3102 May 23, 2024
Prompt: If you're not improving, youre falling behind. Write about this in your Blog entry today.

Oh, dear, this prompt makes me feel slightly stressed! Must I really keep on improving?
Am I falling behind? I didn’t know I was even in a race.

This is the very reason many people are feeling the need to visit doctors to get their antidepressant medication. They’re under siege from a society which is constantly telling them they need to lift their game, earn more money, have better behaved kids and the perfect marriage or job. No, not jobs, careers are the thing you must have. It’s no longer enough to go to work and earn a wage, you must use any free time improving yourself. Get fitter, stop drinking/smoking, get thin.
OMG I’m tired now. I’m off for a nap.💤
