Yes it is better than let them suffer.

12:38 pm

sukee

He was mostly blind and now she said he was also developing cataracts. I could have done more tests and maybe he could have lasted another 6 months.

Hi Annie, did you get rained on in CT?

2:51 pm

Anniebrook

Yes, we did but they played golf in between the drops. It was a very nice weekend in spite of the ra4.

2:51 pm

bichon

ty for the hint Annie

2:52 pm

Anniebrook

Even tho my daughter and I speak everyday, it is not the same as being with her, my sil and the grandkids.

2:52 pm

bichon

I know what you mean

2:53 pm

Anniebrook

The older I get the harder it is for me emotionally.

2:54 pm

bichon

Have you thought of moving to CT. It's pretty pricey and there might not be such good opportunities for you son

2:56 pm

Anniebrook

bichon, I have but I really cannot afford to live in CT and the opportunities for my son are not as good as NYC. It would be very hard to uproot him, probably me too at my age.

2:57 pm

bichon

When we first moved from NYC to CT in '72 I was sure we'd be back in a year. Certainly didn't work out that way

2:57 pm

Anniebrook

So I am in Brooklyn which really is okay with me.

2:58 pm

bichon

Could be worse. Ct is just a subway and Metro North ride away

2:58 pm

Anniebrook

bichon, I drive there. It is one hour and a half. Not so bad.

2:59 pm

bichon

Fluffies need a walk. bbs

crosshair

Well, at least I am combining the chemicals:)

4:10 pm

crosshair

With crop spraying you cannot even get decent un-mutated veggies any longer, so it is all a crap-shoot.

4:12 pm

crosshair

You always do bring sunshine to the chog molly:)

4:14 pm

MollyL

I'm lovingly placing my comments on a string within my mind

5:01 pm

crosshair

5:04 pm

therealblah

interesting, never thought of that as a verb

5:06 pm

sukee

Hi atain.

5:07 pm

sukee

again :)

5:08 pm

crosshair

WB , Sukee:)

5:08 pm

sukee

Crossy, I had to have my cat put down today.

5:08 pm

crosshair

I am so sorry, Sukee. it is a terrible thing to lose a cherished friend.

5:09 pm

crosshair

We had to do the same a few years ago with one of our kitties:(

5:09 pm

sukee

But in a way I feel relieved, he didn't have much of a life especially in the past two weeks.

5:09 pm

sukee

The doctor wanted to try more treatments and take more blood for maybe an extra 6 months.

5:10 pm

crosshair

When a beloved pets quality of life degrades to a point where he or she is not living life, then hard choices must be made, for the pets sake and not our own .

5:10 pm

sukee

Exactly, I would only have been keeping him alive for my sake.

5:11 pm

sukee

He had a good life, 17 1/2 years.

5:11 pm

crosshair

Then you did well.

5:11 pm

sukee

I will miss him most at night because he used to sleep with me. But even that had changed.

5:12 pm

crosshair

There are always more cats stranded in shelters looking for the love you gave to the one you lost. He or she is at peace, and would feel proud to pass that love along to another in need.

5:12 pm

sukee

I'll take a bit of a break, until I see one that I want :) I got Boo not long after I had lost my last cat, I hadn't intended to but he came my way.

5:14 pm

crosshair

There will come a time, and it is usually the right time, when the perfect cat ends up choosing you. One look and you will know when it is time.

5:17 pm

sukee

Lots of cats need rescuing that is for sure.

5:17 pm

sukee

LOL, Donald Trump was fired :)

5:18 pm

sukee

Anyway, I'm sad but not too upset. I have been expecting it in the past month.

5:18 pm

crosshair

darn. he still owes me 10 bucks too!

5:18 pm

sukee

lol

5:19 pm

sukee

Besides, if he is running for President he should not have a weekly TV show.

5:19 pm

crosshair

You have to be kidding me... he is running for president?

5:19 pm

sukee

Yep, he joined the clown bus.

5:20 pm

sukee

That is partly why he got fired, he made some comments about Mexicans.

5:20 pm

crosshair

lol. reason #506 why I no longer do cable T.V

5:21 pm

sukee

Anyway, still need 59 words in here.

5:21 pm

crosshair

I still need 64, myself

5:22 pm

sukee

Thanks for you TI clue, I didn't even have the first part of that.

5:22 pm

crosshair

np:)

5:23 pm

sukee

So, what is new with you?

5:26 pm

crosshair

Same ole same ole now my schooling is over. it is kind of sad, but the free time this summer will allow me to finish some writing.

5:27 pm

sukee

At least I have something to look forward to this summer, my sister and brother in law will be visiting from BC at the end of July.

5:27 pm

sukee

These past 2 days have made me fall behind in my writing, going to be doing a lot tomorrow and Canada Day.

5:29 pm

crosshair

I cannot wait to get back into my own writing now that reading for credits is done:)

5:30 pm

crosshair

What project you working on, Sukee?

5:31 pm

sukee

It's the same job I have, I do blog writing for Minuteman Press, very easy and basic stuff. I do about 144 250 word pieces a month.

5:31 pm

crosshair

very nice. That is the type of gig that i am hunting for:)

5:32 pm

crosshair

Have done som copy editing, and some other small stuff, but nothing steady

5:32 pm

sukee

I basically write about events happening in cities in Canada and the US where they have offices and add a few keywords.

5:32 pm

crosshair

some

5:32 pm

sukee

I get paid a little under $5 for each, not the best but I can do 4 in an hour.

5:33 pm

crosshair

so 5 blogs/day?

5:33 pm

crosshair

on average?

5:33 pm

sukee

It's with WordsofWorth.com if you want to check it out.

5:33 pm

sukee

Yes, when I keep up :)

5:33 pm

crosshair

Think I will:)

5:34 pm

sukee

I've been writing there for about 3 years now and they pay by paypal. They are based in the UK :)

5:35 pm

crosshair

I have submitted some stuff to Gotham Press in N.Y. but it is mostly to get my name out there. they are a subsidiary of Penguin.

5:36 pm

sukee

oops, that should be Wordsofworth.co.uk. I didn't realize there was another one with the same name.

5:37 pm

crosshair

ahh i was wondering lol

5:39 pm

crosshair

There is a Canadian branch for words of worth:) I also put feelers out at elance.com

5:39 pm

sukee

I gave up on those freelance sites.

5:40 pm

crosshair

Not much has come of them, and what does come pays dirt:(

5:40 pm

sukee

Yes, hard to compete with people from Pakistan and India.

5:41 pm

sukee

But, I know some people who have gotten good gigs. I just don't have the patience.

5:41 pm

crosshair

One guy had nothing but bullet notes and brainstorming and he wanted an etire book done on his ideas. Then i would have had to sign off on all of it--for a lousy $500.00. No thank you.

5:42 pm

crosshair

entire

5:43 pm

sukee

Of course, they get what they pay for usually.

5:44 pm

sukee

Anyway, I am going to make some tea and watch some baseball.

5:44 pm

crosshair

I will not spend 3-9 months of my life writing a polished novel for 500, only to sign off on it.

5:44 pm

crosshair

tc sukee. Nice chat

5:44 pm

sukee

No way.

5:45 pm

sukee

Hope I'll see you tomorrow morning.

5:45 pm
