@southernlights55,

I am so glad your furbaby will be alright. I would sleep with him too. ♥
i know it’s been a long day with him keep us posted I think poppy may need
the same thing. Yeah he is a little dog too.

I had two cats that I needed to give medicine like every 4 hours so I have been there.

This too shall pass.

@southernlights,

Oh, that just tears me up. Poor little guy! Yes, he will be better off in the long run! It will just take some time to heal but he will and before you know it he will be jumping up again and everyone will be laughing! 😀

I am glad you will be with him tonight! I did that too with my Walker when he came home. He was in an oxygen tank in the ER and there was nothing more that could be done (cancer, his heart and kidneys were failing). We knew he wanted to be with his family so he came home. I got the bed all comfy for him but he wanted to be out in the family room with his kitty family. I set up soft blankies for him and lots of pillows on the floor because he couldn’t jump up either. I slept down there with him. He got to say goodbye to all his kitty family. Ernie stayed by his side all night too. The next day he surprised us and looked like he got a second wind and walked to the bedroom and jumped up on the bed! We thought maybe we were getting that miracle we had prayed for but no, he just wanted to be in the bed with mommy and daddy now. We didn’t leave his side, he was never alone and we held him and loved him and told him stories of how happy he made us. Early the following morning he left us while I held him in my arms. He was so brave.
Anyway, I don’t mean to go all into that, Your outcome will be a happy one. You sleeping on the floor with your sweet fur baby just makes me think of that and it is so important to do all we can to make them comfortable when they are feeling bad. You are a good mommy and he will get better. Thank you so much for thinking of my Chewey when you have your own issues going on. We had good news today about Chewey; he has gained another !/2 pound – he is 9 lbs now, so that is a gain of 2 pounds overall! He needs to get at least to 13 before I can rest easy. Chewey is my sweet Walker’s daddy.
You just cuddle that fur baby of yours and get some rest too! I’m so happy about your good news! 😀

Thank you so much, Sheba❤️❤️

My little guy is doing okay. He is higher than a kite and wobbly on his feet but doing okay. We have to give him the pain medicine at 9pm. We have 6 filled syringes (2 a day) and will put in the side of his mouth. He is so pitiful because he is whimpering and it breaks my heart. However, I am reminding myself he’ll be better in the long run. I plan on sleeping on the floor with him since he can’t do any jumping. Thank you for your prayers..
I am thinking of your Chewey ❤️❤️

Hi Sheba,
I wrote to you below earlier today but decided to write up here. I was thinking since we have Customer Appreciation Month here at HSN, maybe we could have Sheba Appreciation Day every now and then! 😀
I just want to thank you for having such a nice and friendly thread that encourages and lets us ladies share our lives, our concerns and hopes with one another in such a positive format! I know you work hard on this thread and always bring us pretty pictures, positive thoughts and music. I appreciate it very much and I feel I can safely say that all of us do! Thank you so much for your time and effort and for always being here to make everyone’s day a little brighter! Hugs!

@southernlights55,

I am so glad your furbaby is alright. Thank god. 🙂 Please take care. ♥

@southernlights,

THANK GOD!!! Oh that is such wonderful news! I am so glad he came through alright! That is a lot of teeth to come out but at least he wont have to go through it again! Poor little baby! Please update later. I am waiting to be called back to see vet with Chewey but I just HAD to check in! I’m so glad I did! Lots of love and hugs to your baby! He will still remain in my prayers. Hugs! 😀

Update- my fur baby is awake and walking around. Vet said he is very wobbly from the anesthesia and pain injection. In addition to the abscess tooth, she pulled 17 teeth. We always kept his teeth up but little dogs gave a tendency to have bad teeth. His last cleaning was 2016 and told no more anesthesia because his liver couldn’t filter it out. It became a crisis and a must-do because of the abscess. I told her to pull any that may cause future problems because chances are, this is his last dental surgery. Shocked at 17. After we get through the next few days, I know he’ll feel better. His heart rate dropped too low during surgery but they were able to fix it with medication. I am to call at 2pm for an update. God is good 😊

Top of the morning to you too! How are you doing? Planting sounds like a good idea! I think I need a day of that too! Always good for the heart and soul, not to mention the mind! 😀

Busy day here for me. Chewey goes to vet at 11:00 and I have Dr. appointment at 1:30. I’ve been up pretty much all night. Bull sees vet tomorrow at !0:00. Hubby has more heart tests Thursday which will take 4-6 hours. He had blood work done Friday right after his appointment. It seems to be a busy week so far. I wish I could go off to Europe for a vacation like Amy! 😀 I sure hope she is having a great time and is feeling peace about little Ari.

My mind is on southernlights and her fur baby right now. It will be nice to hear everything went well. I think we all know how she is feeling right now.

Well, have to get ready for my busy day so I will check in later. I hope you have a good day and I hope you are having some sunshine! 😀

Still no babies here. I am so NOT ready but I guess that is up to them, isn’t it? Holy Moly, here we go again…

I’ll be on later. Have a really good day and do something fun for yourself! Kisses to Poppy! 😀

Your Life’s Work

Each of us has been blessed with a purpose that makes our heart sing.

Many people are committed to professions and personal endeavors they never consciously planned to pursue. They attribute the shape of their lives to circumstance, taking on roles they feel are tolerable. Each of us, however, has been blessed with a purpose. Your life’s work is the assemblage of activities that allows you to express your intelligence and creativity, live in accordance with your values, and experience the profound joy of simply being yourself. Unlike traditional work, which may demand more of you than you are willing to give, life’s work demands nothing but your intent and passion for that work. Yet no one is born with an understanding of the scope of their purpose. If you have drifted through life, you may feel directionless. Striving to discover your life’s work can help you realize your true potential and live a more authentic, driven life.

To make this discovery, you must consider your interests in the present and the passions that moved you in the past. You may have felt attracted to a certain discipline or profession throughout your young life only to have steered away from your aspirations upon reaching adulthood. Or you may be harboring an interest as of yet unexplored. Consider what calls to you and then narrow it down. If you want to work with your hands, ask yourself what work will allow you to do so. You may be able to refine your life’s work within the context of your current occupations. If you want to change the world, consider whether your skills and talents lend themselves to philanthropic work. Taking stock of your strengths, passions, beliefs, and values can help you refine your search for purpose if you don’t know where to begin. Additionally, in your daily meditation, ask the universe to clarify your life’s work by providing signs and be sure to pay attention.

Since life’s journey is one of evolution, you may need to redefine your direction on multiple occasions throughout your lifetime. For instance, being an amazing parent can be your life’s work strongly for 18 years, then perhaps you have different work to do. Your life’s work may not be something you are recognized or financially compensated for, such as parenting, a beloved hobby, or a variety of other activities typically deemed inconsequential. Your love for a pursuit, however, gives it meaning. You’ll know you have discovered your life’s work when you wake eager to face each day and you feel good about not only what you do but also who you are.

Cherie,

Yes we have the situation in the family this relative lives in another State but they are
still family and I am concerned of course. I mean 9 months pregnant and this happens.
I know accidents happen every single day but why to someone who is young and have
a husband and toddler simply on her way home. I know god is with her. ♥

Now Negan hmm…I do like Jeffrey Dean Morgan but he has not atoned enough.
Negan saved Judith and they seem to have a connection I don’t know what to make
of it. In my book he has to do a lot to make up for what he did all those people. I still
say Alpha will give him a run for his money. Watch!

How are you and the Captain? Cherie you have a cool MIL and a cool mom. 🙂
I will start planting in the next 2 weeks weather depending. 🙂

@kittengirl,

Top of the morning to you. Enjoy the sunshine today. We are chilly here in OZ.
No worries I am going to start planting this weekend.

Kisses to the kitties. MEOW!

@bichon18,

I know you are having a great time in Europe. Fly Amy just fly I love it. 🙂

I miss you. ♥ Say hello to Jerry and you two just have fun.

Hugs to little Ari. ♥

@taci,

Good Morning in Cali wishing you a good day. A lot is going on in my little world.
Things are getting somewhat back to normal I don’t want to give TMI. LOL!

Things happen in life just family matters that I have no control over.

I hope you love the dresses you have coming. Let me know. Happy Hiking. ♥
