Comment on The Lady IS A Tramp by Lisa Sullivan

I guess I should have read this post before commenting on the last one. So sorry about your loss. Our pets are our children. It’s never easy when we lose them but the innosence of a child definitely reminds us that healing is possible. God bless you all as you heal.

Wow. That just about made me cry. I don’t know what I’d do if I were in your shoes but I definitely believe you’ll know when it’s time. God bless you both.

Hi, I’m Peter’s sister. Every now and then I google his name. Maybe out of a need to feel connected to him still. As this January 24th marks the 5 year since his passing, I happen to be thinking more of him and came across this.
Thank you for the kind, meaningful words about Pete.
My family misses him immensely & sadly the sites I’ve found about him are mostly of the gun shop owner and the support behind him and angry people that his gun shop is closed. It is with gratitude to you that I find such admiration that someone who knew him took the time to express his talents. My brother was an amazing person, and stricken with an illness just as debilitating as any other serious disease. Again, thank you…very much. I needed to see this. Joanie Hartzel

I remember the punishment but not the action. I once called my elderly neighbors, “old #%&@ers.” I was 4ish. Who knows where I heard it. I sure got in trouble for repeating it.

“they hop on their trusty skateboards” might be the cutest thing I’ve heard in a very long time! I say keep up the good work, if you no one else but you guys…that stuff is priceless! oh, and well done Greg!

Comment on My daughter’s first laugh, or is it? by Tom Sightings

It’s something, isn’t it? Enjoy it while you can. My daughter just turned 28. I can still get her to laugh, but not without an accompanying eye-roll to demonstrate that she’s laughing at me, not with me.

Comment on Maybe we’re just not fish people by Donna

Crap. I wish I had something clever to say but crap is all I can come up with. My experience with Betta fish is very similar, my Mom cooked Nick’s 1st one while helping him clean the tank once, even more traumatic was when he caught her jabbing at the underside of the underwater turtle decoration he had become lodged under post sauna. We several bits and pieces to flush after that. It was awful, the tears were huge and just like Greg’s they were very real. Should you decide to spring for a Mac IV, I’d like to gently suggest you get a tank with a filter and go to the aquarium/exotic animal place on 1A, near that little farmer’s market-ish stand. They sell food pellets that won’t dirty up the water as quickly (we once went 6 months w/o cleaning the tank-you might say gross but I swear to you, it was clean…ish and it didn’t smell!). That place also sells these little black worms that betta’s love to gobble up, Greg will get a kick out of that – Nick did. Those guys at that shop really know their stuff. Hope that helps and I hope Greg is feeling better tomorrow.
