Subject: Sorry so absent...just one thing after one thing...

Two weeks ago yesterday Doug lost his Mom. He had taken care of her for the past twelve years or so. Last spring she had got to the point that he couldn't work and take care of her and she went into a nursing home where her needs could be met. She passed with family close by, the way it should be. Hard though always losing a parent, like losing the anchor to the ship suddenly.

Molly has been having eye problems that have not resolved, and we had to take her to an eye specialist. She has a degenerative "boxer" disease of the eye. She is currently on about six medications for the eye. She developed a doozy of a corneal ulcer, we are on week 4 battling it. She has a lamp shade on her head. Molly is not graceful on even her best day and the lamp shade in this small place (plus my clutter) is like the proverbial bull in a china shop.

To make things just further better....Doug is broke down on the rode as I write with a load of hay. We purchased this low mileage truck in the fall and this will be the fourth repair. I'd bet my bottom dollar that truck odometer had been altered or had rolled over (insert mad face here).

Such is life...take a deep breath, take a deeeeeeeeeeeeeep breath. Did I say take a deep breath? *LOL*

Hope all is well in your boxerdom.

Jacke
