Goodbye Sol, We Will Miss You…
Sol
C. played a big part in me deciding to add to my furry family by adopting rescued pugs. I read her blog religiously – loving to read how Benjamin, Henry, Luna, and Sol are doing. I’m terribly saddened to read about the heart-wrenching decision they had to make to help Sol over the Rainbow Bridge. They gave that beautiful sweetheart the best months of her life.
I often look at my little Gizmo and wonder if he remembers the horror he suffered before he came into my life. I hope not. I wish that he only thinks about warm fuzzy blankets to sleep on and a never ending supply of treats in the kitchen. I’m sure that all the love C. and G. and Sol’s furry siblings gave Sol wiped away all the bad memories and she passed over the bridge knowing that she was one of the most loved pugs in the world.
Sol – say hi to Duke and Froot Loop and tell them how much I miss them…
Things I learned this weekend…
various observations:
my orchid is not dead, it’s merely on vacation.
of the three red-eared sliders I have, the smallest one enjoys his new (actually used, from a neighbor-moving-donation) 10 gallon tank all to himself. I was right. The much larger Tony and Stewart had been picking on little Ryan.
Teenagers do not know how they like their steak cooked – when you take them to a restaurant.
No matter how hard you try to please someone, they will treat you like poo-poo if you let them.
Jimmie won again? Ugh. Maybe I should DVR the races and watch them only if I know he didn’t win.
I still don’t understand why people so vehemently feel that Damien, Jason, and Jessie are guilty. Even with no direct evidence (like DNA) to prove it. How can a person be given the death penalty with only circumstantial evidence? With all the mistakes made during the witch hunt investigation and trial? What would it hurt to give them another trial? With a different judge this time? If they are so guilty, wouldn’t it come out? I’d gladly shut up about it if another trial proved them guilty. (Nope, ain’t on the recent bandwagon. Been following this since it happened in 93. Never thought they were guilty to begin with.)
The Right Temptation wasn’t really a “terrible” movie. The premise was good. And I’ll take Kiefer in a seduction scene any way I can get it.
spending the entire weekend doing laundry is no fun
if it’s there, the pugs will pee on it
happiness is three pugs cuddling in bed with you
i really need to stop the Wii-Fit from collecting dust.
I don’t know that I will ever quit smoking, given my circumstances. If they change, well – that is another story.
You don’t realize how much of your hair is on the floor/carpet until you have to dig it out of the beater bar on your vaccum.
Scooby-snacks for thought…
Snaps for Tina ;)
I achieved a personal milestone on Tuesday. I won’t bore you with specifics and I haven’t shared it with anyone mainly because I don’t want the Negative Nellys in my life to beat me down. But, I am very proud of myself and seem to have an extra spring in my step today. I just have to say that setting goals for yourself and achieving them really does your body and soul good!
and it would seem…
that facebook isn’t importing my blog posts. Grrr…
Didn’t realize that Twitter was..
…murfing up my posts. Gee, I thought everyone would want to read my posts 5 times…. *shrug* Let’s hope it’s fixed now!
I don’t get it…
…the NASCAR races aren’t being broadcast on any local radio station in my area. I am not amused.
