You...I'm so happy for you and Jim, too, Sandie. You seem to be such a happy couple. I know you had a scare last year--I was scared for you. Rich and I were in our teens when we married, and I think there were many who thought the odds of our making it were nil. I couldn't imagine having been married to anyone else, , either so we're both lucky in that respect. Rich used to kid when I'd ask him if he'd do it, again, and he'd said, "Yes, but there would have to be more than a blood test." We'd always laugh. He also used to remind my Dad what a big favor he did him. He was a character. It's nice to know that you don't think of me as being jealous--just looks like you have so much fun, and Rich and I would have loved to have met all the different couples.<br><br>I can't imagine having another puppy in my life, either. If your neighbors run a husky ten miles every day, they just may be up to the task! I can't even imagine being able to do that. Thanks for writing, Sandie. Therapy went well, today, but I hurt like the devil when I got up. Rain was coming, so I think that's what it is. I'll be okay, tomorrow, but Wednesday will be a LuLu. Then I start all over on Thursday! Oy Vey.Jack B.

And you were robbed of these retirement years together. I am so grateful every day that I still have Jim to enjoy this life with me. Last year I wasn't so sure he was going to be around so we have definitely learned to enjoy every day to the fullest. I also try to remember that fact when I get frustrated with him. It took me many years to find him - I was 37 when I finally got married and I can't imagine being married to anyone else. (No one else could put up with me.) Our neighbors, two rigs down, got a Siberian Husky PUPPY!! They are out of their minds. But they are both bike riders and take the pup for a ten mile run every day, sometimes twice a day to tire her out. I would never have a puppy again. Not even a little one.Jim and Sandiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16108729200561576870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666490067321750579.post-44880784550206512152013-03-05T00:49:54.575-05:002013-03-05T00:49:54.575-05:00So sorry to hear you are in co much pain.

Aren't granddaughters just the most enchanting people in the whole world...and grandsons too!!<br><br>I hear ya on no more dogs. Losing Rusty was so very hard and now to think that Poppy is nearing that time as well - can't do it again. Besides, I couldn't keep up with another dog. Loved the pictures of Bogey all snuggled in his blankey.Donna Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06161069942110860372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666490067321750579.post-89513055730646517932013-03-04T12:24:33.659-05:002013-03-04T12:24:33.659-05:00Hey, Jo! Thanks for stopping by. I couldn't be...Hey, Jo! Thanks for stopping by. I couldn't believe that she bought it in a store that specializes in prom dresses called Cinderella's Closet. They certainly didn't have boutique stores for teens when I was young. I love the color, as well. Keely has a great time where ever she goes.<br><br>Jack won't miss Bogey, but I'm glad sharing his space is not bothering him. He's such a gentle soul. Rich used to say he was a "kind dog" and smile, but he was right even when Jack was very young you could feel that about him. Rich and I were very lucky to have had Lizzie and Jack in our lives.Jack B.

They say it is an energy color. I hopw she has a wonderful time.<br>I don't think Jack will miss Bogey to much.

So you are doing right in realizing that there will be pain for awhile. And you sure do have the right attitude. You and Jack are both amazing. I know what you mean about no more dogs. I see mine getting older and my heart breaks already. So much heartache. I definitely think the girls are more beautiful today then back in our day. But Keely is at the front of the line in looks and from that last picture of her - personality. What a combination.Jim and Sandiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16108729200561576870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666490067321750579.post-38241425628363564002013-03-03T11:24:28.689-05:002013-03-03T11:24:28.689-05:00OH dear.

How long is this pain supposed to go on? I thought that's what surgery was to cure. You have an amazing attitude about it all.<br><br>I sure hope Jack won't be sad when Bogey goes home. You may have to take in an older dog in need of a great home to keep Jack company.<br><br>That prom dress is stunning and your granddaughter looks fabulous in it. What a beauty she is. No one will be able to pay attention to ordering at Wendys. :-)<br><br>Sherryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00328866430156879312noreply@blogger.com
