SanibellSheller I just don’t get it. Maybe because I’m OLD! My Mom always asked me why I was a pessimist…I always said, I’m just a realist. The virus is out there, lurking and just waiting to jump on people. I don’t want to let it jump on me!

samslilangel… Whew. It’s really tough and you are short of a year yet. I cannot believe that Mom is 51/2 years gone, Dennis 3 years in July, Ozzie the Wonder Dog 2 years in August, neighbor will be 2 years in December and Donna now a year.

I keep being torn between thinking that they are all just in the next room/next door and yet seems like a million years since I got to talk to any of them.

OODIEBOM I must say, here in my area of Los Angeles, people are REALLY good about having the masks on in stores. I was to 4 groceries, Home Depot, Costco this week. And now the gov has said they need to be worn statewide. Fine with me. I have resolved myself to them being here for a long time. Heck, with even cold season coming up, I HOPE everyone keeps wearing them.

OODIEBOM… running in and out…between the sofa, office and sewing machine!

OODIEBOM That is what several people are saying but…I don’t know if I could stand to go through the heartbreak of losing a dog again, at some age. OR if the dog out lived me! Both of those thoughts choke me up. So I will probably just play with other’s doggies…there are many in the neighborhood.

RosaTowwen It’s weird but having those ashes there is, well, kind of comforting.

I NEVER thought that I would ever say that but here we are.

Sheba2011 Beautiful!

Sheba2011 That’s them! I stumbled on the site that they are on GoComics dot c o m …had to call my neighbor and tell her. She brings me the local comics everyday. The one I cut out and put on my desk is from June 11th…It reminds me so much of Ozzie (my pic).

OODIEBOM Sadly, no. At 18.5 I had to send him over the Rainbow Bridge in August of 2018. His ashes are next to Dennis’ on my nightstand.
