My wife did that lol I’m responsible for the roof lol.

Love the Christmas lights! This year needed an early light session lol. Normally it’s after thanksgiving while everyone is shopping. This 2020 shenanigans needed some holiday joy

I’m usually a Scrooge.  Only because I do not like all the madness that comes with this time of year.  I can only imagine what Black Friday is going to look like this year...something out of a horror movie I am sure.

But focusing on the real meaning behind the season brings some joy to the people running each other over for the newest iPhone cover or whatever these kids want these days.

Yea we do don’t go there lol. We are done shopping. Kids get 1 big thing (last year my son got a BB gun) people piss me off year round that doesn’t change but avoid them 365 so holidays are no different. I’m a sucker for a solid lit house

But seriously if you’re looking into a potential rescue or something my cousin runs one (NBA rescue on Instagram or Facebook) she works with rescues all over if you’re interested. Got my hope from her

Not very much contact,  but a friend had one growing up.  They are cool dogs.

We lost a few of our four legged friends over the years.  It was always hard getting used to a new pup in the house, and they didn’t seem to work out for us.  We waited a  few years this time, tried a rescue that did not like me at all and settled on a lab, he is a goofy SOB.

When our Dani boy started limping around back in Michigan it took the wind right out of my sails.  I rescued him from a bad situation and he was a heck of a companion.  It is so tough when it’s their time.  The one we had to give up before that, Graham... my neighbor left a golf ball out in the yard which he swallowed and got stuck in his intestines... I was broke at the time and couldn’t afford the 7k surgery.  Luckily the rescue we had to give him up to did it and he got a new home, still irked that they wouldn’t help us out and let us have our boy back.

Sorry, that probably didn’t help at all.  But these four legged friends get to me.  I am really sorry you had to say goodbye to your buddy, and I hope you can meet a new buddy that works with you.

It helped more than you know. I love my dogs... dog now. I have no one to come home to anymore. My dogs are my boys. The one I had to put down was very close to my heart. I loved that dog! 150 lbs. of big, slobbering baby.

I probably need to wait for a while before I rush into getting another dog. My other dog will be 14 in April. His time is close to an end. I love him, but he has never really been my dog. He loves my ex and my daughters...lol.

I asked about the Cane Corso because my Vet has one that needs a home. I love large dogs, but I don't know how my other dog would handle a year old puppy.

my 9 year old dachshund has put me through a few health scares. i dread the day i’m in the position you are now, and i feel for you so much. here’s something that i came across a while back. i hope it helps a little. 

 

“Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. 

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....”

Shoulda listened to me and stayed the heck out of the public... 😠

I hope she's wrong about it and I hate to hear there's a chance. I am hoping nothing but the best for her.  We've done everything possible to keep the risk down for the sake of the mother-in-law who has health issues.

Honestly with treatments the way they are even if she does have it most people are good to go in a few days.

No problem man I take multiple people with it a week if not a day. Most people do not need much treatment at all.

That’s great to hear

Hoping for the best for her.  When going out in public we have been very careful to keep safe with the parents living here.  Our kid just got back from college and is keeping her distance within the house and wearing a mask for a couple weeks to make sure no symptoms show up.  Between the mask & washing hands or using hand sanitizer its really not a lot of effort to do basic things to lessen the risk so why not.  I liken it to wearing a seat belt in a car.

Is she getting tested?  There is still something out there called the flu; not that the flu is much better.

That or longer for a symptomatic test at this point, I believe. Can't keep up with the demand. 

My wife and I both get weekly asymptomatic tests through our employers and they are still turned around in 24-48 hours at this point.

I want to fry one for work but know that won't happen neither will a smoked one. You'll have plenty of turkey to eat this week.
