Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Good Morning!
[MENTION=19302]Lizann[/MENTION]...I can't imagine your grief, you poor thing. Let us know if we can help you, and I can PM you my phone number if you want to talk.:sad:

Pauly-I can't believe Lou's starting school! Wow, where did the time go? Cute picture of Romeo, too..little loverboy.

Nora-my foot is OK, but I feel like I am just on the cusp of getting another attack. I see the podiatrist next week.

Big hellos to everyone else...I am home today but on a tight schedule.

Happy AF Monday!

[MENTION=19302]Lizann[/MENTION], I've been thinking of you each time I look at my dog. I am so sorry for your loss of Lucy. I can tell you were a wonderful person for her. :hug: NS

Lizann,

Good on you for taking your mind off of a potentially destructive path with all of the the stress you have right now.

Looking good Nora C!

Best to everyone!

[MENTION=19302]Lizann[/MENTION] - sending you love. Did you have to work today?

Rusty - sorry to hear that you feel like you're going to get another attack. It was so bad last time. I actually am in the midst of a fibro flare so I understand.

Really nice to have visitors stopping by. Good to see you [MENTION=11419]allswell[/MENTION], [MENTION=18725]NoSugar[/MENTION], [MENTION=651]SKendall[/MENTION], [MENTION=21602]abcowboy[/MENTION]

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Hey guys. Just a quick pop in to let you know I appreciate your kindness and support. We are devastated and it was the hardest thing we have ever had to do, but hubby and I decided together as we believe Lucy was letting us know she was tired. We decided not to prolong her suffering another night and stayed with her till she was gone. I am so grateful for the 12 years she was with us. Maybe someday I'll share the story of how she came to us, but I believe she was truly an angel sent to us in a miraculous way. My kids are devastated as is my mom. Too much all at once, Erin came by with Logan today. She made dinner and it was ready on the table when I got home from work.
Thank you all for being here for me. I did this all totally sober. I couldn't have done it without you. I love you all from the bottom of my (broken) heart!

Love you Liz

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Liz my heart is hurting for you, darling.

You made the brave choice - and that's always the right one. I'm sure Lucy is thanking you for ending her pain and distress, but more importantly for staying with her until your father collects her.

Proud of you Liz!! Getting through it all sober is a huge accomplishment. Would love to hear the story of how you got her when you are ready....mm

Lizann,

Life has ups and downs and all of it is best dealt with a clear mind. So sorry for the loss.

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Hello everyone. I hope that everyone had an AF day.

Liz - I have been thinking about you so much. Lucy was so blessed to have you all and you all were so blessed to have Lucy. :heartbeat:

I was going to try to get caught up with everyone today but don't know if it's going to happen. So, please excuse me for not commenting to everyone. It has been a long day here so I don't know if I have the concentration to write. LOL

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Hi all. Nora, I get the concentration thing! How's Molly?
Pauly, glad Lou liked kindergarten. He's such a cutie!
Went to the bank with mom and sissys and hubby today. OMG! Four hours later. Our heads were spinning, but at least we got the majority handled. We all had lunch together. Mom was pretty quiet, all too much for her. I think. Cleaned some of dads things out of the closet, suits and pants and such. Lots of tears all around, but it wasn't all bad. Hubby and I made reservations for a short getaway in Vermont week after next, just because.
Hope you're all doing ok.

Re: One Step at a Time - August 2018

Sounds like a hard day, Liz. But, glad you could be with your family to get thru all of that paperwork, etc. Excellent that you & hubby are going for a little getaway. I have been thinking that hubby & I need to do the same thing. Like you say.....Just because.
