still here, sorta

[kissa_bites]

I'm not dead, just quiet. I still tweet - just thought o' the moment stuff, though folks were subjected to a small meltdown last week. Dane and I had to let our gal greyhound, Stelle, go. She broke her leg walking in the back yard in the morning. We took her home that night after a day at the vet - the preliminary diagnosis wasn't good. I spent the night with her - it was just horrible. he was in so much agony. The next day, Dane took her to a specialty vet on the other side of town who gave the same diagnosis - bone cancer. Instead of prolonging her agony, Dane and I decided not to bring her out of the sleep she had to be put in for her xrays. It was a sad decision but it was the right one.



The blonde is driving me crazy with her scattered brain and forgetfulness. I am not sure what to do anymore. I know she's ADD but I just don't want to medicate her. She is, in all ways, a silly little girl that I adore - well, without the pms.

Dane is still out of work *sighs*.  It's been 9 months. Yeah. And that's all I have to say about that.

I read and saw the Twilight stuff. Yanno, it has it's suck but it also has many good things. Most of them revolve around Cedric Diggory, but, yanno. It isn't Potter, but it'll do until something better wanders along. *smirk*

I do promise to pay more attention to LJ. I, too, get forgetful, then, of course, guilty for being forgetful, inspiring self-loathing and dread to come in and admit to my shame and inattentiveness.

*squishes you*

Sorry to hear about Stelle. The right decisions are always sucky and hard. :(

*hugs again*

*hug* thanks. It was more sad than hard, I guess. Neither one of us wanted her in the kind of agony she was in after the break. With that, it was very easy.

So sorry to hear your sad news. She looks like she was a real sweetheart--that's an adorable picture.

Drop in when you feel like it and when you can--it's always lovely to hear from you, but you're allowed to have a RL. It makes you that much more interesting when you return here.

*hugs you*

*hug* thank you.

I'm afraid my real life is far less exciting than it really ever ought be. I don't know that it could get more uninteresting, lol.

She really was such a sweetheart - so very loving and snuggly. That photo is a VERY typical greyhound position called cockroaching. It's so funny to see this stunning statue-beautiful dog to flip over on her back and stick her legs up in the air. I have dozens of photos just like this, lol.

Oh darling, I'm so very sorry. When I saw your post, I started giggling at the dog photo, but then I read the text and wanted to give you a huge, huge supportive hug. It's so hard to let them go, but you definitely did the right and ultimately kind thing.

I'm also sorry about Dane's work situation. I keep hearing that good things are on the horizon, but it's hard to believe it when so many people we love are out of work.

You have enough things on your mind, sweet one. Don't worry about us. We'll still be here when it doesn't make you feel lousy to be here. *huge huge huge huge hugs*

Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. She hurt so much, I just couldn't let her hurt any more.

Dane was in a totally stange field that, unfortunately, doesn't really have anything that he can transfer into from. Most HR departments don't understand what the hell he did, much less be able to see that he'd be good for them.

So sorry. *hugs*

Thank you *hug*

Yes, the right thing is often the more difficult thing, and I send our condolences on the passing of your pup.

[benevolntgoddes.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much.

Sorry to hear about your dog.

And I don't have this yet, but if you don't it might be worth looking into: http://www.additudemag.com/adhd-web/article/842.html

Thanks for all of your hugs through this. That have really helped.

That book sounds awesome I'm certainly going to look for it. I've never seen it before - it looks great.

At 9 months unemployed I forced to do distateful thing and wound up working overseas, it was that of go bankrupt and lose everything. That's where the jobs for me were.

[benevolntgoddes.livejournal.com]

If that was the answer, I'd be all over it, having lived in both the Philippines and Italy. Sadly, his field is rather strange and going overseas just isn't the answer. The whole field is shrinking and he worked for the top dog in it.
