    Re: Happy Army July

    Case in point. I just posted after Rusty?s post. There were no posts after hers. Once I hit post quick reply, Molly?s post appeared. No that is strange stuff!!

        Think a lot of us who are regular posters and I?m speaking for myself are frustrated with all the glitches and a lot of the time you feel you are talking to yourself.

          I get that Rusters. The really strange thing is that it seems mostly isolated to this thread. I say that based on my observation only. In any event it’s great to see you. Have a great day!

            Re: Happy Army July

            Good afternoon Army (or what's left of the Army :-( ). I more than likely will be talking to myself -- and so be it -- I understand - I read back - but I need to put this down in words.

            I'm not making any excuses for going missing for the last month -- I was in the wilds of Kerry with no internet in the house we were in -- I was there since 24th June and it was the longest rottenest saddest month in a long time. House was a very old cottage -- 3ft thick walls -- small windows - rained a lot -- felt like it rained the whole month - the house was damp and dark -- and well --- poor wee Max -- we had to have him put down as I told ye...... Starty knew the run up to this -- he had become fearful and subsequently aggressive with strangers (and folk not so unknown to him ) particularly men, since his surgeries - he attacked a man on the beach when Joe accidentally dropped his leash down in Kerry 2nd day of the holiday and went for another man but thankfully was adequately restrained that time so no major consequence - but the time had come - we had been bitten several times previously when trying to administer drugs or handle him in anyway --

            Joe's heart seems to be broken -- that wee doggy was there when Joe had his illness - he was there for so many important hurdles in his life even tho he was only 3 - they were very big years in Joe's life -- a lot happens that I don't mention here as I don't trust the site anymore (100% not alluding to anyone in the Army - I'm speaking of previous people who potentially still lurk) - anyway-- his buddy now is gone and he has become terrified that I'm just going to up and die--- as we are rather insular as a couple - we depend on each other a lot and I sort of understand his fear.... but now I'm feeling sort of responsible for something.... oh I dunno -- it's just been a horrible horrible time

            Coming home today to all Max's stuff around the house was sad beyond sad for him -- (and me too -- but nothing like the same level) -- only Adam in the family understands - the rest have never had a pet or anything -- ach -- it sounds like an overreaction but I find my big Irish stalwart man -- tough and rough --- crying - very hard to take --- and I can't help him like --- anyway I know it'll get better but it's sad.

            Anyway -- re. the Army --- if this is it's demise I'm sorry and sad too -- it was an amazing place years ago - but a few like ourselves - long time sober and moving along with life are probably never going to keep it going - I find nowadays I need to be 'mood appropriate' to post - this is the first time in a long time I've opened my heart here -- so no way will I be posting every day -- not realistic really.... if anyone wants to talk about an alternative -- I'll be all for it -- or if it's acceptable to pop in and out here from time to time -- or do we all say adios and goodbye? Dunno --- I agree with Rusters -- the state of the thread and the site is shocking -- and as I've reverted to posting on my phone mostly when a big long post goes missing I just sort of say 'feck it' .....

            I'll miss yiz all if we go.....


            thanks if anyone read xxxx

              Hello Molly. I am so happy you are back. I know the pain of losing a pet. I hope the hurt lessens.

              So I log on and the Army only showed my last post. Again, this is the only thread that I experience this. Perhaps staring a NEW Army thread as a test? Just a thought. I do not give up on things easily so I’m willing to stay on the forum and give it a go!?
