From the good ol Midwest
I don't usually post stuff like this but since it's all working out then I will. It's been a bit of a stressy week so I haven't been on here.(not that anyone missed me ;;D) My Dad ends up in the hospital this past Sunday and I find out from my stepmother Monday night. I have Mondays off so I had all day to visit him but no. I get along with her well so I didn't make an issue of it. What's the point in a fight? Anyway he had heart issues and they were talking possible surgery but nope, they did a dye cath test and only had to put one stent in and he went home yesterday so yay. Then I have a little dog who is my world(turned 17 today!:love:) and he's been coughing badly the past few days. Has had a couging issue for a couple of years(collapsing trachea, common in small dogs)and is on medicine which has worked great until now. I called the vet and she said maybe he's starting to get congestive heart failure. I made an appt. for Monday, rethought that and changed it to Friday(that's what sick time is for and I never take it!)and ended up taking him yesterday. She took a chest film and said his heart is a little enlarged but not into heart failure territory yet. Going to start him on heart meds just to be safe. I asked her if I'm just prolonging the inevitable and she said "he's happy, I can tell, he's healthy otherwise and if he still eats fine, goes to the bathroom fine and plays then he's not ready yet" Whew. I'm not in denial, he is 17, but I'll take even a few more months with him.
Anyway, long winded but thought I would share because I feel like I can here :cheerful:

Have a great weekend everyone!!
I am so glad to hear that you got such good news about your Father and your little best friend!

Holiday? What is this in honour of? I can't keep up to date with things... Oh wait - it must be May Day! (May Day is a holiday in Germany?) :umm:

Yes, the first of May is holiday for us. In May are a lot of holidays Ascension Day (Thursday and mostly that Friday after it are free days) and Pentecost (Sunday and Monday). But therefore we do not have a lot of holidays after this.

I am sorry for your loss Muskrat.

N_N hope nothing else gets broken. Good Luck!

Neesy the wine festival sounded good. I am glad for you that you went there.

Mustangclaire it's nice to see you.

Kurben you probably tried everything huh? Drinking hot milk with honey, reading/ watching tv etc. Maybe Yoga or meditation?

My advice would be to go ahead and give them. Even if he doesn't get them, at least YOU tried. And the truth of that will come out eventually.
I know that it rips a parent's beating heart right out to know that their child is being told (and might even believe) bad things, but time is on your side. The truths always come out. They always find out, and in the end, your child will know the Wulfie we do.
:biglove:
Thank you Lepp. I will be sending stuff this Friday. Thank goodness that the moving is finished. Moving almost across the state ate up too much funding and caused a lot of stressed. I will be mailing letters. I had a facebook page for my poetry. Last Friday, I changed it to Father to Son. A page to post stuff for son, about me, about him, about us and poems of all sorts. One way or another, truth is out there now. *laughs* :eek:

*shuffles to bean bag and flops in it* I have hurt my feet and better find a doctor for them. I missed work today, get a chance to keep working. I am going to be working early morning shifts. Oh joy. Drink red bull and snort coffee grounds.
:lol2: Oi boy, wouldn't my Mrs. just love me when I get home. Hahahaha... No, I am just working. I will be back to art and poetry Wednesday if not occupied with appointment for my feet. Thought I had pretty tough feet until I started as cashier aid. Ouch. Life is still good.

Standing all day can be very hard on the feet. Good shoes(regular or athletic) with support for arch, and memory foam inserts. If allowed maybe you could even stand on a special foam matt . Hope all goes well. Achey feet are no fun.
Love your idea of FB page of Father and Son. Have a good day. Love and green lights!!

If you can find them, get some of those special socks that apply a bit of pressure to your legs. They can be pricey (28 dollars up here where I live, per pair) and they recommend not putting them in the dryer either, so have to hang to dry.

Or maybe some special gel insoles? Standing as a cashier is stressful for the circulation, but I hope you get breaks where you can sit down for 15 - 20 minutes. Good luck :encouragement:
