Lil Bit

Ms. Lil'bit...this is my little bad girl. Don't let the sweet little face fool ya. She can be just as mean as the other two...and she will mess with them when they are trying to sleep. David says, "the only time that she is a sweet girl is when she is asleep. But she is a sweet. She does not beg like Gabby..well Gabby don't beg...she will take whatever she wants and runs. They are all growing up..but they are all sweet when they want to be.

Gabby

Ms. Gabby...she is definately David's puppy. That is where she is at when David is home. Next to him..and she reminds me of a toddler. She is into everything. I have to keep everything picked up. A napkin can turn into a million pieces of paper. And she will take everything from the rest of the puppies.

E

Ella...aka "Eddia Bean". I think that Bean is the sweetest of all the puppies that Lulu had. She has the saddess eyes of all of them. She is a love...loves to be held.

Lulu

This is the funniest dog that I have.

My boys

As I sit here, I'm watching a movie that both my sons loved as a child. And the tears flow down my face. Isn't it funny, how you can hear a song, see a movie, or see someone that reminds you of someone from your past and your heart is flowed with memories? I miss my boys..I miss my grandbabies... but tonight I miss them more than ever. Brent or Bryan if you are reading this, know that I miss you and I love you more than ever....Mom
P.S....I watching Casper and wishing that you both were here with me!!<3

Boring huh?

This past week has been long and boring..Lost a pet in the first part of the week. Then on Friday I took my Dixie to the vet to get her teeth cleaned. Some folks in this part of the woods is clueless. I caught much slack on that. This was the best one..."you take a dog to the vet to get her teeth cleaned? So how does the vet clean their teeth. You lead a boring life, huh?" Reply.."no, I would never consider my life boring..busy but never boring. And yes, the dog has to have her teeth cleaned too. And the vet cleans a dog teeth like a dentist cleans your teeth. DUH!!!" Saturday was David's birthday and we went out with friends to dinner. We had a really good time. It felt good to get out of town and have some adult conversation. When we got back to town I went by my parents house to see if they were in bed and a light was on in the living room. When I got in the house, Mom was up, waiting on me. That confused me because she never does that. I ask why she was up and she told me that "she was waiting on me to get in." And I was thinking..."okay she is waiting on me...I'm in my 40's and she is still waits on me." She wanted all the details of where we went to dinner and what we had from dinner. So we had a 30 minute conversation on dinner. I miss the days that she would go out and eat dinner with us. Now we can not get her to go to the Dairy Queen or anywhere to go and eat. We can go and get it and bring it home to her and she will eat it but she will not go out. Sad because this is a woman that loved to travel, go out to dinner, take her grandkids to Wal-mart and anywhere else that they wanted to go and now she can not even remember what she had for breakfast. Sad but true. She loves her kids, grandkids and great grandkids. She has days that she thinks that her great grandkids are her kids..days she cries because she can't remember some events in her life. And then there are days when she remembers everything and she wants to take about nothing but the past. Alz. is a pain in the ass. Not to mention the fact that she has Parkinson's to go along with the Alz. She had a very bad day Sunday, shaking all day. The meds. didn't seem to help. We got 6 inches of rain over night Sunday night and she looked out the door Monday and that was the conversation piece for us all day. But I am thankful that she was in a talking mood. There are days that she has nothing to say or she will start talking and then just stop. I hope that every one has a good week. Take care all!!!!!

A quick note

I wanted to post and let everyone know that Mom is trying so hard to stay in good spirits. Dad is having a hard time and is still having a hard time. I believe that they both are trying really really hard to strong for each other. My Dixie is up there tonight. They have Ms. Hattie (Dad's dog) and she was lonely so I took Dixie up to their house so that she would have someone to play with. I am hoping that I can find them a pup soon... Mom called me when they were ready to go to bed to tell me that Dixie and Ms. Hattie were playing and having fun. I told them that Dixie did not eat from the table (a habit that we are trying to break) and I was told that she had french fries and a hamburger for dinner tonight. I didn't say anything...Mom sounds so sad and so much like a child when she is talking about the babies (that is what we all the dogs...are our babies). I wanted to wish all of my online buddies a Happy Valentine's Day!!! Take care and have a good week, what is left of it...
