Anyone else suffering from impatience with this world and people in general?! TR Actually I’m getting a lot of joy out of my pink and purple impatiens flowers. :yes: What a difference between words eh, by knocking off the “ce” and adding the “s” impatience vs impatiens B-) As far as “humans” go … I’m staying far far away from people as much as possible. My “neighbor” 5 units away tried to run over my dog the other day. 🙁 It was a close call …. I pulled my dog back to the grass in time. This is a 15 mph zone and he accelerated to 30 mph. No other eye witnesses to see his dirty shenanigans so they would never believe me if I reported him. I’m assuming he just got vaxx and this is the road rage spewing forth from whatever brain cells he has left. I carried my dog back home and said “its a jungle out here” soon very soon we will be living safety on heaven’s shoreline and never have to worry about crazy demonic people wanting to harm us ever again! Just read there are a bunch of bird die offs in six states! They are trying to blame global warming. Also, perhaps I'm out of sorts but today something seems different?! Nothing I can put my finger on though! TR Geri, not you have time but you might consider training your pooch to the litter box, going out may get a bit more complicated if we stick here to September. Thanks for the suggestion, Tammie, but I’m afraid this little guy will probably eat the cat litter! He used to eat small rocks … back in 2016 I tried a plastic cat litter box and lined it with the puppy wee wee pads. He thought they were neato toys … so he not only chewed and tore the wee wee pads apart but chewed and destroyed the plastic litter box … both sides were completely removed. :mdrmdr: I've got the goosebumps today! My dogs eat what was deposited by the cat in the litter box! They're not allowed to go in those rooms anymore. I have a 6 month old German Shepherd, our new outdoor farm dog, who is basically full sized now and he routinely pulls out my newly planted flowers. Is it un-Christ-like to scream and chase your dog after he's pulled out the flowers from your pots? My youngest son for mother's day got me 2 beautiful Hydrangea plants and the dog, Rosco, tore them to bits. (for the 2 = $50 Canadian). I reprimanded him and purchased 2 replacements....dumb or what....and planted them in among some other perennials thinking he would not find them....he did....chewed them to bits after pulling them out. (now we're at 100$ Canadian)......just one of the costs of having a pet....the vet bills are horrendous. (also have a small lap dog for the house and a cat). Rosco is the most loving wonderful dog except for this one issue....if our pets are raptured with us....Rosco better be given a renewed character in this respect. Trust, my daughter has a Shepard named Sadie and she is as gentle as a lamb, but at 80 pounds and only 9 months old this puppy bowls you over. She also chews everything, the garden hose that we run to the garden had to be run through a PVC pipe and buried about 8” deep in a trench, this was the fourth hose they had to buy. We had to fence the garden in to keep her from destroying the earth boxes and other plants in our 700 sq ft family garden. Had to build a enclosure around the AC unit, she tried to eat the hose. In playing with the smaller dog (a King Charles), Sadie accidentally bit Savanna on the neck and she needed two stitches. Shepards are wonderful pets (I’ve had two in the past) and great to have around but they do like to chew. :mdrmdr: :calvin They out-grow this trait of chewing.....I hope! Mine also digs holes in the lawn.... :mdrmdr: Yikes! I don’t blame you for keeping the cat’s bathroom off limits!! I hear ya with the expensive vet bills and their medication. Wow! Rosco is definitely a rascal ! You were brave to get more hydrangea plants! But I can see why you caved and bought more … they are beautiful plants/bushes … they are my favorite too! This spring I bought a small fuchsia one, a blue and a purple because the ones from last year are taking too long to bloom. I want instant flowers because time is short and I expect the rapture any day now. :yes: Oh I guarantee Rosco will be a good boy in heaven! Or if not … maybe our guardian angel(s) will be assigned to pet sitting duties?! :mdrmdr:
Everyday is a chore just to do the same old routine things .... wake up! Thank you Lord for another night of rest and bless the day! From that point it’s rough .... shower, dress, eat, drive to the hospital, stop in my office to unload, put on my jacket, get my list, head out, finish the hospital, drive home, eat, sleep, repeat .... my joy is my memory work, reading scripture, blogging on RITAN, pray (pleading). A few smiles and laughs. I envy and am thankful for the believers that have the ability to not go out among the masses.
Soon, I pray we leave! :prayer-hands:
