Today is the first day of the rest of my life...!

 


That was a positive way of thinking a few decades ago.

In other words, make the best of your life with no excuses!

In a way that could work today, why not!

Doing positive things like helping others always used to be my goto for feeling better about myself and the world at large.

Now, we live in dangerous times with an autocrat at the helm of our democracy, and he is destroying our Constitutional laws of the land! Its as if he has a gun pointed at their heads! (i.e. all our American judges)

They have taken control of government in a very bad way!

Firing people that need to be in their positions to maintain safety and coherence for all to run smoothly and with dangerous issues!

But he is speedily removing that net of protection for all Americans to fly, to work basically to live without fear!

What can we do as a nation to STOP ALL THIS NOW???

Protesting is one thing, but we need something with a finality of stoppage that we as American citizens do not approve of he is doing to our nation, but what?

But without violence, using our heads... go back to all his antics that were considered outright illegalities and get them to hold up as laws in spite of him being president... IMPEAH HIM!!! Then they should stick once he is out office...!

But I don't get it, how come our presidents who have been impeached stay in office? Please explain that to me? https://video.search.yahoo.com/search/video?fr=yfp-t&p=Impeachment+of+a+sitting+president+why+aren%27t+they+removed+from+office%3F#id=3&vid=036bb2abe7fc703b9ac3af2588984a76&action=click

Let me introduce you to the crew...

Lastly, moving on to who they are, our crew...

3 months, and ... now 7!



   
Aussie, say good day!
I am Aussie, not from Australia, but American-made. 
I will comply because it is fun and say good day!

I am called Aussie because my mom asked a sixteen-year-old girl looking at me in the crate I was in at the adoption site that day what she thought I should be named. Mom asked her age but not her name—ha! Without hesitation, the teenager said Aussie! By the way, she was just looking, so my mom did not steal me from her.
We never discovered the girl's name; Mom liked Aussie, too. Since then, we have found that it is a ubiquitous name, but it is still just right for me! My parents think that I am uncommon, even unique! I do like that.
I am an Australian Shepherd, a red Merl. And here is an interesting factoid about me: I was supposed to be a miniature Australian Shepherd, but as you might know, I AM NOT! I am a standard Australian Shepherd! Although I am now seven years old, I am the baby. I am the largest of fur babies, and due to my breed and being standard, I am just right,
I was three months old when Mommy and Daddy adopted me. I had been taken- out of a hoarder's home in the Carolinas with my litter. 
Above is my PIC, taken on the birthday I share with my dad, but dad is much older than me!!! I was the first to be adopted on February 16, 2018, on Dad's brother's birthday.
No tail/tale publishing, circa 2018.
Get it? I was born without a tail, preferable for all Australian Shepherds; only one out of five are born that way!

                                           

Hello, I am Bella. In the picture above, I am a Maltese Yorkie and a Morkie. I might be eleven years old. We are all rescues, so no one knows our ages for sure. I am the middle child, so I am what you would expect, with all those idiosyncrasies accompanying that! Being the only girl has its rewards as well as its difficulties. 
My previous family turned me in, stating that I misbehaved with their elderly dog. It had been said that I was driving him crazy! I was the second to be adopted on 8/18/18, clearing out the shelters' day!
My record called me Belle, so for no known reason, Mom decided I was more of a Bella. I was beautiful either way!




Hey, wait! Please don't forget me! I am Chance, pictured above, a Bichon Frise! I am 13-ish years old, so they think, and the eldest, and I like getting up early with mom and Aussie. Bella sleeps late with Dad, till after seven most days, even later sometimes! 

I enjoy a good tug-a-war on the ropes Dad had twisted for Aussie and me, and sometimes even Bella plays, too! I was the last to be adopted on January 23, 2020. 

I had been wandering the neighborhood for days when I saw Aussie and Bella in their living room window, so I hung out there. 

The animal control lady had been called and came out to see if I had a chip I.D. with her machine, and Dad told her that he wanted to name me Chance. His reason is that if no one claimed me, "I want to give him a second chance!" So that is how I got the name Chance!

The Animal Welfare League checked me out and kept me for sixteen

days until I was allowed to be adopted. Good evening.

Easy as Aussie, Bella, and Chance, now you got it! In order of adoption!

Speaking My Mind: Moving on...!

Speaking My Mind: Moving on...!:                                                                       I don't know what is happening, but it took nearly twenty minutes ...

Moving on...!

                                                                     




I don't know what is happening, but it took nearly twenty minutes for my logo to appear where I wanted it!

Thankfully it is available online at any time for free!

Today, Hubby and I will be looking at kitchen appliances the cabinet guys will be here next week!

Once we get that all done the dock will be after that.

And by then, sadly or horrifically, we will be getting the reports of the 2025 Hurricane Season and how bad that will be. It starts June 1st and runs through November 30th, every year, i.e. Hurricane Season!

Hubby goes at the end of the month for an MRI of his brain to see if the cancer has spread there, also his bladder scoping is the middle of next month is then. At the beginning of the month, he meets with his oncologist and has his second treatment of Keytruda which he seems to tolerate as well as he did the first time which will be wonderful.

I had my six-month breathing test, and I have had asthma for years, at the pulmonologist on Monday, Jodie did the test, Dr. Maas has retired and I will be seeing his P.A., Justin, for the follow-up tomorrow. Happy he did not die too many die before they can retire!

I have the follow-up to my RFA, Radiofrequency Ablation early next month too! That was my lumbar-sacral region. I need it again in my Thoracic region as well. I am in severe pain there, I had the RFA there years ago. And it seemed to help.

The kitchen remodels are next week and it will take its scheduled three days to complete.

No more PT my neuro did not see it helping me. Always subject to change...!

That's our lives in a nutshell, or our lives quicker smaller look...

Let me introduce you to the crew...

Lastly, moving on to who they are, our crew...
