@Sheba, oh, sorry you have a sinus infection. I know you are going through a lot.
Thinking of you and family♥️💚💚. Thanks a bunch the hugs and many more to you.

No hike today or yesterday :(. Too busy. I had another dentist appt and finished everything needed. Am doing some volunteer time which is s blast but Is a definite time commitment, and yes, you got it…. I have the sporto duck shoes in gray with the matching purse.

The Christmas trees and peanuts gallery are awesome.

@Cherie, love the sporto duck shoes. Enjoy them!

@Sheba,
Awww, Thank you so much! You are always so thoughtful! That made me cry. Good tears though for a change. Thanks so much!
I am so sorry your head hurts. Can you take something for it with the antibiotics? What you need is a good nights sleep and a good day of some relaxation! Maybe you should get a massage tomorrow if you are up to it! Or sleep in and snuggle up with your doggie or a teddybear! 😀 Or both.
Really, you are so thoughtful and you shouldn’t worry about me when you have your own situation going on. I suspect you are like me though and worry about everyone. Cherie does that too, God bless her. God bless you for caring. It means a lot to me. I care about how you are feeling too and I worry when you try to be so brave. It’s best to vent a little and I am here for you too.
I was just going to go to bed (it’s still early here) and thought I’d say goodnight. So glad I stopped in. Good night Sheba. Sweet dreams…

Iman Happy 10 year Anniversary. ♥

4 Cherie’s Kids, Loaf’s grandchildren, Kittengirl grandson, Taci son too.
To all in the Community have a good night and be safe.

Peace Out Peeps!

“Count On Me”

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Don’t be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on me

I can see it’s hurting you
I can feel your pain
It’s hard to see the sunshine through the rain
I know sometimes it seems as if
It’s never gonna end
But you’ll get through it
Just don’t give in ’cause you can

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Don’t be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on me

I know sometimes it seems as if
We’re standing all alone
But we’ll get through it
Cuz love won’t let us fall

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Don’t be afraid
Please believe me when I say
Count on me

There’s a place inside all of us
Where our faith in love begins
You should reach to find the truth in love
The answers’ there within, oh
I know that life can make you feel
It’s much harder than it really is
But we’ll get through it
Just don’t give in

Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak I will be strong
Helping you to carry on
Call on me, I will be there
Don’t be afraid
Please believe me when I say

@kittengirl,

My head is hurting and I have taken meds. I just want to know how you are feeling.
I know the next few days will be difficult. One step at a time. We are all here for you.
I want to dedicate a song to you I don’t know if you know the song but the artist
you will recognize it will be posted below. 🙂

Hi Sheba; You are totally terrific and a singular sensation. Loving all you send to all of us. A sinus infection is not easy at all. Painful and it is cold outside for you. This morning it was 45 degrees here in Palm Beach County. Everyone brought out their sweaters.

Today, the potential little man had his dental and a little cyst removed from the top of his head. All okay. Still do not know what he is but the groomer might. We meet him on Saturday. He will be brought here for a house visit and I was asked if we would be able to adopt at that point. Yes!! Now, we haven’t met him but we are in love with his photographs and descriptions. He is in the five-year old zone…maybe.

Will I be able to tell you the name of the Rescue Group through this thread? Again, I know anonymity is important. They post new families on Facebook and of course there are pictures before the dogs meet their new families.

This is a tough time for you. Please preserve yourself. Keep yourself well. Do not give away your peace to anyone. Anyone…..

@Sheba,
That is in my saved shopping bag! So funny! In RED too! I am getting a blush chunky knit beret over at Zappos by Steve Madden. They have some nice wool berets there too. I would go check out Macy’s but I don’t feel like going anywhere. Check out Zappos (after you get your red one here, lol.)!
The red one will look really cute with Heidi! 😀

@Sheba,

It sounds as if you are having a rough day. Planning the services is so hard. Hugs your way.
I just want this week to be over… just have to get through the next 9 days intact. Anniversary of my niece’s death on Sunday and my dad’s 6 days after. How are you managing with the arrangements and your sinus infection? I sure hope that clears up soon for you. I wish I knew how to post those gifs because if I could I would send you a nice warm, soothing cup of tea right now! 😀

I love Iman’s things too! I have the sequin berets and matching knit gloves! I keep waiting for her to offer the ones on her product page but they are not in the inventory. I have a closet full of Iman goodies and I love them all!. When she first came she brought some lovely suede hobo bags and I still use it! I have a yellow/grey snakeskin embossed bag too! I have been buying Iman since she came and never regret a purchase (up until recently when I was sent a wrinkled mess of a jacket but it wasn’t her fault). My hubby always gives me a hard time when she is on but in a good natured way. I am going to do some retail therapy today. I am trying to get back into the spirit of the season but this week is doing me in. I will return to my normal self soon as I get over this hump in the road.

I hope the meds don’t mess with you too much and make you sick. I hate that! Maybe your dr can prescribe something else if that becomes an issue. Get some rest, that is the best thing for you. 😀

@kittengirl,

Here is a beret on HSN I am thinking of getting this. I love RED. I do wish Iman would bring
back the ones she did a few years ago. I still have mine along with the matching gloves
I just want another set.

@kittengirl,,

Dear god now I am very sad over your niece too much for anyone to bear.
I am so sorry this happened. I need a little time to respond I am about to take
some very strong medicine and it is doing a number on me. So I am making sure
I eat. I love Iman and for years have always done a full gallery of her fashions. I buy
Iman and love her things and I am a David Bowie Fan. I love her berets and they are
well made she sold some in Red and Grey one year with matching long gloves. Talk about
elegant. We are planning the service for my family member so I am going back and forth
I am just trying to keep the spirit of the season despite all the heartache you have my
prayers. I don’t know how you do it.

@Sheba,
Top of the morning to you too! 😀 You are right about keeping our loved ones in our hearts. My family and friends I have lost are always in my heart. They will NEVER be forgotten. That is the hardest thing for my sister who fears her baby girl will be forgotten. I have told her she will never be forgotten by me and she knows that. Her ex husband never visits her grave anymore and this saddens my sister so much. He used to come on her birthdays too and leave flowers and toys, but no longer… It makes me sad to know my sister is alone on these days she is at the grave. She brings her a cupcake, balloon and flowers and sings her “Happy Birthday”. Just breaks my heart. Yes, I know I am not the only one that has ever been sad and lost loved ones, nor is my sister the only person to have lost their child. There are so many of us here going through the loss of loved ones (human and fur baby), some of them recent and others not so recent but grief is grief and it takes time. Don’t put on a “stiff upper lip” Sheba, let it out. It is what it is and it is part of life, I know, but it hurts and it takes time. I hope we all get through the holidays ok. Life is for the living I know, but we also will never forget those we loved and impacted us so deeply. I hope I am not making you sadder… I’m just trying to get it out. Relationships are so complex and individual and when someone passes away we are left to try and make sense of it all. I hope I am not just blubbering away. I hope I am making some sort of sense.
On a happier note, did you get any Iman goodies? I saw you posted a lot of her things. I am still deciding…
Yes, my grandson came yesterday and we had a lot of fun! Made cookies again.
Thank you for the big hugs. Right back at you! I hope your meds are starting to work and you will feel better very soon. That should probably take care of all the headaches you have been getting lately.
I looked for the post you said you were going to leave below but couldn’t find it so sorry if I don’t respond. Get your rest. 😀

@bichon,
I am praying the dental work goes well for the little somebody special. I understand your worry. Two of my kitties went in yesterday for surgery. I don’t like surgery – for anyone. They did well and they are home and acting like nothing happened! Needless to say, they got lots of love when they got back! 😀 Hang in there. 😀

Shout out to Taci, loaf, velvet, mightymouse! 😀 @Cherie, I posted below for you. If anyone is feeling pain from the loss of loved ones at this time of year, I am sending big hugs… 😀

@Cherie,
Thanks Cherie, for letting me know that -I appreciate it very much! That’s a GREAT prayer, keeps you open to what God may bring you in the course of the day! I learned a long time ago to never pray for patience because God listens and will indeed answer that prayer! LOL! I mostly start my day in prayers of Thanks and just asking to be someone that makes him happy. I know I mess up BIG TIME too but he doesn’t expect us to be perfect and good for us – he always knows our hearts so when others want to judge us for messing up or whatever it is they want to judge us for, we can be sure that he is always there and he knows our hearts. I love that! 😀
Yes, my grandson definitely warms my heart! He is such a joy and so funny! I just love the innocence of little kids! 😀
I hope you and yours will get through your first Christmas without your fur baby ok. I know the holidays are difficult and emotional for all who have lost loved ones and there are so many of us here who are dealing with this. I am glad we can count on each other and hope for the best for all. 😀 I hope when the time is right that you can open your heart and home to another fur baby who needs you. Simba might even help with leading the right one to you. WHEN YOU ARE READY…

Enjoy the season and the lights.
