Another Day

Some days i don't even feel like being with myself. I don't want or need company of another human. I do like to spend time with my dog. There's a world of difference between being lonely and alone. Sometimes I am better off with my own company,
There are days when I enjoy my quiet time too but those are not often.
This is my snugglemutt. Her name is Emma she is 1.5years old. I wasn't so sure at first if we were going to get along. I adopted her when she was about 3 months old.
This is the first thing I see every morning . She makes very expressive faces and can be emotional..I wasn't sure I was ready for another dog. Previously I had a dog named Chico who died of cancer. I had finished my treatment when we adopted her by I was still feeling side effects and also grieving the loss of Chico. Like I said I was afraid at first I would not bond with her.Cancer treatment made me forgetful, more so that I usually am. It made me exhausted. Puppies while adorable can be wild too.

Summer . 2021. Almost over the pandemic? Birthday party time!! Day after tomorrow is my sweet granddaughter's 7th birthday. Everyone thinks they have the best grandkid. I honestly do not know how we got the beautiful, smart , funny as hell one that we got. I don't know how we warp speeded through the last seven years , but I sure as hell don't know how she is going to be SEVEN.  She and I have been through our own health battles .I remember how fragile she was when she was born. But she is a fighter . She is strong , you would not know now that she had a tough beginning.  She is bright , she made it through this school year  , and almost half of last year , doing school remotely. She was able to do well with her school work during this pandemic . She has computer skills much better than mine. Her over all school work was great . What impressed me was how quickly she could improve her reading skills . She seemed to have a bit of trouble in the beginning of the school ...

Cancer is lonely.

Your family rally around you. Your friends post praying hands on facebook, and send their heal fast messages. Some are great , but somehow some feel like they are seeking attention and sympathy for themselves. I do not want anyone feeling sorry for me. Nor do I want to take any of the "credit" away from anyone who wished me well. I honestly felt all the well wishes and prayers helped. I liked the moral support. Sometimes cancer and the treatments  made me feel lonely. Yes people offered to come, and people dis come with me often . It was not a lack of people , it was cancer. It was not feeling sorry for myself , but I did wonder how cancer chose me. On the other hand why  not? During chemo, I would sometimes go alone, my preference. I would chat it up with the person next to me , if they felt like it. I had competent nurses, most were even friendly. They were busy but reassuring. But watching that poison drip what seemed endlessly from the IV bag into my vein, made me feel ...

Happy New Year? My word for the year 2023-try.

 Well, Happy New Year. What ever the fuck that means. I am having a bad day already and it's just started. I'm tired of being the one that looks the other way , the one seeing some good in people that isn't really there.  I am a fool to care about anyone who does not care about me.I do not like being quiet about how I feel anymore. I started thinking about making a resolution this year. I usually think of something and forget it pretty quickly. This year I thought I really wanted to be kinder. But it may be too hard. when there are so many entitled ,hate filled people. I want to pass on kindness, but sometimes it seems impossible to show kindness to ignorant , mean people. I want to show my granddaughter a grandma worth remembering.  I mean what's the point of having lived if the world would have been better without you. I want her to see me act kind to people who don't seem on the surface at least  to deserve kindness. I want her to know we do not know what others ...
