Nobody Can Drag Me Down

[Georgiabelle]

Thanks Job and BF. It's always wonderful to hear from you both. Job, your words are always like a blanket just out of the dryer. BF, I do follow your sitch.

Sadly, now they do think it is cancer. It has been difficult and I have told the kids that it is the worst thing about having pets-they just don't live as long as us. However, we are lucky to have them in our lives and they bring us so much joy. I have told them he doesn't have much time before I have to make a decision, so let's pamper him and remind him of how happy we are to have him as part of our family. He has always been a wonderful dog who loves kids and animals. We were fortunate to find him. I told them nothing can replace him, although another rescue will need a family and kids to play with soon. Hot dogs for him:)

I don't want to waste the space on this, however, I tried to have a conversation with X Mr. GB and it is clear he is still orbiting Saturn. I no longer engage in crazy and I had to remove myself for the discussion. He was very dismissive of the kids' sadness at our dog being sick and well, I realized that's on him. And I am reminded that I am grateful not to be him. Couldn't live like that.

Thanks for your kind words, BF. I admire your tenacity and commitment. Some days, I like to think I have permanently removed myself from the dating pool. And I guess because society still thinks I'm cute (death grip on cute!!!!) that people are perplexed as to why I'm not "out there.' Whatever that means. Again, life if fluid so who knows what the future holds. I'm glad you are warming to the idea of dating. Dating should be fun and there are many, many good guys out there. I know several so that I am 100% certain of:)

Happy Friday! XO
