@BoopOMatic

Thank you for the beautiful picture. My friend. I love butterflies.

I  know how to send a picture from  my phone but not from here.

My day was very good. I hope the same for you.

I just got gas and some shopping at Costco. 

Is that a picture of your dog, because my Melanie looks like that when she is groomed..  

What breed are your dogs? Melanie is poodle and maltise. How old are they?

I haven,t heard from my boys since Christmas, but a couple of neighbors check on me every morning.. They have me text them by a certain time and if I don,t they check on me. They have the keys to my home. I trust them.

I lost two friends last year and a third to Alzheimer's and another moved out of cal. To Oregon.  So it gets lonesome, but I keep busy, just miss them.

It,s been raining here and another storm coming in tomorrow.  I will have a lot of yard cleanup  when it is over. Keeps me busy. That and my exercise two hours a day. Plus walking Melanie. My day is always full, but my friends and I used to take little day trips and go to lunch. Of course with covid, you have to be careful.  I still wear a mask out in stores, because the one time I didn't, I got covid and I even have the latest vacccine. It was like a head cold.

Well you Take care. Thank you again for the beautiful picture.

Please stay safe.

 Hi @qvcaddition  dogs are one subject I could talk about all day - LOL!

 I have a French Bulldog - she's 8 years old. Here's a pic of her - isn't she cute?

 357135184_6305351442848035_8718176250231917496_n.jpg

 She is spoiled ROTTEN - of course!

My husband - aka "Mr. Boop" has a pug. She's 8 years old, also.

 My Frenchie's name is Liza - I didn't get her as a puppy; I got her when she was 2 years old, from a breeder who didn't want her anymore. She told me that Liza was unable to get pregnant.

 I have had her spayed.

 Her poor little back legs don't work anymore because her vertebra are malformed....so she can't really do anything for herself, she can't walk...

  I'm glad you have great neighbors, that's such a blessing in this day and time!

  I don't have any close neighbors as we live in a rural area.

 Do you do any needlework or crafts? I like to crochet but I don't have my supplies here - we haven't been here that long; we moved from a different state and we haven't completed the moving process yet.

 No telling how long that will take but I just try to be patient.

  Don't forget about the other board a lot of us use; I don't know if I can put the link here but if you google Q Forum Friends it should take you there. You can private message people over there, which might come in handy later if we wanted to talk about something personal.

 If you want to use an image here, just go to the image you want to use - right click on it and save it to your desktop. Then, go up at the top of this text box until you see this:

new shot.jpg

 

You click on that icon and a box will come up, that gives you the option to "Browse" your laptop for the image you want to use. So you click on the image and it says "Add image," you click that and you're done. You can adjust the size you want your image.

 Hope that helps...🌹

Thank you. I will work on that later.  I am computer savey. I fool around until I figure things out, but your directions will help make it faster.

Liza is cute and a face a Mother would love, so cute.

I got Melanie from the human society in town. They thought she was five, but a vet thought two. So she is anywhere from 16  to 17 years. 

My half sister who lives in Wash. had the same problem with her dog's back legs.  The vet suggested they put him down, but she didn't.  They went holistic meds, and got a carriage to take him around.  Then they took him camping in a van, everywhere they went and he loved it.  He lasted for two years after the vet said put him down. They searched online for holistic meds. He was like a baby and they had to diaper him and help him to relieve himself. It was a lot of work, but that's love.  After two years, they could see it was time, but that dog took more trips than I have in my lifetime.

When Melanie has an upset stomach, not ofter, I give her a syringe of pepperment tea.  If she is constipated, she gets Syringe of Smooth move.  Also occasionally, Dandaline leaves and root tea.  I search online to see if the animal can take these teas.  After the last bout with the vet putting her on steriods, I am going more and more holistic. She went crazy on the steriods. I cured her ear infection doing some research with ear washes.  So far, so good.

I use to knit a lot. My grandmother, who came from Italy and raised me taught me how to knit. She did some beautiful work, I still have with me. 

All my grandkids got outfits, blankets, hoods, etc that I knitted. I knitted the same for great grandkids. I don't see or hear from any of them, but it is their loss, because I gave them anything they wanted and took them anyplace they wanted to go. I don't regret it, I enjoyed it, just how to you turn from someone that gave so much love??? 

Today, I do more research on current affairs and learning to keep this old brain going. I,m on the computer a lot, and am certainly going to follow your directions this weekend when all my errands are done.  I know needlework keeps the brain alive, its hard, but satisfying.  I have some ceramics I use to do with friends. I could never get the hang of needlepoint, but have a lot of my grandmother's work.

We are suppose to have a level three storm today.  To hit us this afternoon, so light rain now and getting out to finish errands. When ever I get a new tracfone from HSN, I learned how to transfer everything over from my old phone to the new.

All my pictures, etc. Looking forward to what you just told me, plus will check out the other blog that is more personal than this one.  

You have a wonderful day and keep warm and safe.

I will work on learning what you suggested.

Sometime my chrome tablet won't let me do things a PC does, but I'll see.  xo

@BoopOMatic 

 

Happy Sat.  I tried putting an image on here, but my chrome has none of my images.  They are all on my phone.

No one does emails anymore with me, just tex messages and we send pictures.

Then I emailed myself from my phone to the chrome and it didn't take, didn't recognize my email.  Have to work on that.

I did go in the private forums, but it would not let me in.

Something about Malley.com??

I will continue working on it, because that is how I learn technology.

So for now, until someone can tell me exactly what to do to get into the private forum, we will have to communicate here.

Sorry. 

I hope you are having a good day.  Sunshine here in my part of Cal.  Melanie just got back from a 1.5 mile walk.

Got so many leaves from neighbors trees, I am going out back to clean up.  Next week I'll have more, but can't stand a messy yard.  I'm lucky, its mostly cement and brick with flower pots, but big.  

I hope your stuff comes soon, so you can get back to your crafts.  Sounds like fun and I bet you have done some beautiful work.  Take care, keep safe. xo

Oh my goodness,  Lily is super cute.  How old?  She looks like my Melanie after her groom.  I wish I knew how to send her picture. On my phone I do.  I love aanimals, but especially dogs and cats. 

Are you John,s wife?  I might be reading wrong, because John always mentioned his cats.   If so say hello for me. And hello to you.

Thank you for the picture of your precious baby.
