The easiest way to avoid regrets is to ask yourself this question, "If not now, when?" It's a powerful way to put life and our decisions about how we spend our time into perspective"

Mine Posted by Cindyh on 6/5/2026, 12:47 pm, in reply to "Friday gratefuls?" That i feel like going on vacation. I hope i feel good during it. It was very hard for me 3 years ago. We are driving 7 hours almost today (plus all my stretching stops) and will have almost 4 tomorrow I wanted to try to make it all in one day but John was afraid I’d be too sore to enjoy myself. Maybe on the way home. My shoulder is doing good with me just doing the exercises at home. It’s really getting better! All of you sweet friends

I’m safe lol Posted by Cindyh on 6/5/2026, 10:21 pm, in reply to "Mine" At the hotel in Alabama for the night. Only 4 hours away tomorrow

So glad your shoulder is doing well! Posted by Paula on 6/5/2026, 9:19 pm, in reply to "Mine" Less pain = more fun on vacation!

Paula Posted by Cindyh on 6/5/2026, 10:15 pm, in reply to "So glad your shoulder is doing well!" It has really made good improvement! I can’t believe I’m just 4 months post op. I never thought it would do this good. I am still Not supposed to lift more than 10 pounds until I see him 7/22 for 6 month post op and not supposed to lift certain ways but I honestly forget. I hope you are managing ok. I know grief is hard. After I had to put Bella down I was a mess. She is the only pet I have lost so far

Mine Posted by Paula on 6/5/2026, 12:11 pm, in reply to "Friday gratefuls?" Lewis and all of his predecessors I think it was Cindy and Joan that wrote the 'letters from Charlie,' before I decided to get Lew,wasn't it? So precious. I've been so stressed the past few weeks, two eye surgeries and follow up appointments, adding hours at work, watching Lew fade and wondering 'when?', losing him. Adopting crazy Tony. I emailed the rescue last night. The cats can't stay in my bedroom forever. Blake comes out when I put Tony in his crate at 9 each night. I think they each slip unseen to my office during the day. But this can't go on. I told the rescue about all of this and that we are taking him to classes. I asked that if things don't improve, can I switch to fostering him until he can be adopted. He is a pistol and we already love him but this is no life for Blake and Gianni. Hopefully,it won't come to that. 3 days with no appointments of any kind! It's been weeks!

Paula Posted by Beverly on 6/5/2026, 3:21 pm, in reply to "Mine " That is a lot of stress, for sure. Hugs, sweetie. I hope Tony does better!!! Enjoy 3 days off!!!

Paula Posted by Cindyh on 6/5/2026, 12:42 pm, in reply to "Mine " I hope Tony gets better. You are right about the cats. Have fun on your 3 days!
