What a lovely kitty, I have a blue cream girl too, so nice to have a cuddle with :heart: :hug2: She's not much for cuddling. Each morning and night I grab her and hug her and give her a kiss, but she doesn't go for any of that type of stuff. I do it just the same. :) It might not do much for her, but it helps me! :)

Thanks, Becky. I'm still trying to get a picture of her that shows her off well. She does not photograph well. Even the picture they had on the shelter page of cats for adoption did her no justice. But she's my gal, and my heart breaks for her and what will happen to her.

That is a beauty. Maybe if I make it to then, someone can doll me up just like Mona. :) -
I'm trying to post a picture of Tulora but without any success. I will try again tomorrow. In the meantime, from my heart I thank you for all of your kind words, and I love the sunflower and butterfly pic. We have a lot of butterflies hanging around ours too. I tried to take pictures, but I am not too good with the camera.

I can't use this phone for posting. I' m messing everything up. Could be the fact that I've been since 2 might have something to do with it. Believe it or not, when I do get up like that, I pray for all of you. Not collectively, but name by name. -

GM, that's funny. I was thinking of pulling up the prom thread. I'll look for it later. We had a lot of fun and it got to I think 65 pages. Mr whippet and his whippy-mobile! :) -

It's my only bright spot of the week. I was going to go a few days during the week as well, but I cannot move as fast as I used to, and it takes me a long time to get myself together, so the morning Mass is out. The other Mass they have around noon isn't good because hospice nurses, social workers, chaplains, doctors like to come, for whatever reason, right around 11:30, or 1. All I do is pray all day really. I've lost interest in most everything else. I love to read, but my eyes just can't stay open long enough to read more than a paragraph or two. It's okay though. I lay on the couch and look at my gorgeous sunflowers with Tulora on my lap. The days have been sunny and on the warm side. I think about how grateful I am for all the people I've known in my life, and how grateful I am to Hospice, and how fortunate I am to have found the great seniors' place we live in. Today two very kind ladies brought us lunch. One even brought along a lovely potted plant. Both were obviously prepared with care and love, not just thrown together as some do. She even made a treat of home-made brownies for dessert. How grateful I am to them for their kindness. With so little kindness around anymore, I do so appreciate it when I am the recipient of it. I am very peaceful, and my heart is, believe it or not, full of joy. I'm finally going Home. :)

Finally, another Bon I know. The only other Bon I know is Bon Ami. And I don't think it signs. Or sings.

When my emotions level out, I can respond. But right now I can't. Please know though how deeply I appreciate all of your thoughts posted. When I am able,I will write my Last TRF Testament, because there are some here (I don't mean any who have responded) that really amaze me and leave me wondering whatever the hell I ever did to you. But I will leave that for another day. Hospice is sending over stronger anxiety pills for me because every time I get off a good plateau, I drop down lower than the low I had before that plateau, which means I am fading fast. I just hope I have the time to do and say everything. This place has meant so much to me over the years. I've told some others here, TRF was never just an internet place to waste my time. You people are real to me with real lives.- 156 replies

Which band is worse? - Part 2 of my TRF Bon Jovi investigation

You're getting paid to investigate this? -
Does such a person exist?

Other people including myself are showing, and giving support. I'm asking you this question. Were you thinking of doing, and going to do the same thing? The question is, and was to you, Administrator (1-0-0-1-0-0-1). He was the third person to post on this thread.

Suit up!

This is the best thing they ever did, and it's one of my favorite videos:

It's hit and miss. I never know from one day to the next, one moment to the next, what I am going to feel like. Like right now I feel as if I am going to keel over the keyboard. No joke. :(

Each day a new pain appears. Now I am starting to have pain in the rectum. I am grateful I can still get to Mass on Sunday. That is my sustenance for the week. I can't read any longer because my eyes just won't stay open for long, so I use all that time to pray. :hug2:

Thank you, Becky, for finding it and doing this. That's my dear brother whom I miss so much. He died September 22, and was married to a woman like the man I married. It must run in the family. I can't wait to see him again. How I miss his laugh. My beautiful sister who stood 5'10" and whenever she went into NYC, photographers stopped her and gave her their cards. She was beautiful, but that career held no interest for her. She was really smart too, and would have made an excellent doctor. Instead, she chose to teach children in public school. My poor father who died suddenly at the age of 54 in 1971, and my mother who I caused so much trouble and sleepless nights, lived to the age of 90 passing away a bit over ten years over from a stomach aneurysm. It's a beautiful family photo :) Your father looks so handsome and proud. I'm sorry you lost him when he was still pretty young. The picture was taken probably around Easter or Mother's Day in 1955. i sure was happy. :lol: It's funny, the only one that's looking right at me today is my father. His death was so sudden and unexpected. I never had a chance to say goodbye. My brother-in-law drove him to the hospital and he died three hours later. I can still see him walking slowly down the front steps. It still makes me cry. Everything makes me cry lately.

Happy 11th TRF Anniversary, Babycat! :hug2:

I'm fadiing fast. Today was worse than yesterday. Here's hoping and praying that at least tomorrow will be better. If I had known it was going to be this bad without chemo, I would've just done the chemo.
