Charly no, 12 doesn't seem that old for a small dog, does it? Cheeky and I both turn 14 this year. Mom used to think I would live to be older than Dutchess did, but these days she wonders. DALLAS mom's sister has to restart her phone a lot or she has trouble. Yeah, no cooler temps here either. Yesterday we had tripple digit heat indexes and again today. I think we are expecting 94 without the heat index. Going to be another sauna day. I think I will take a nap. Twinkle (My Sweet Angel) I tend to type my reply in notepad first and then copy and paste over to here. I actually started doing that at another site and just kept it up here. willy the age difference and potentially the size difference is what makes mom hesitant to get another dog right now. On the one hand she thinks Cheeky and I should have a quieter, calmer house for our golden years. On the other hand when we had Hershey for that short bit it really perked me up and made me more active. She figures I will still sleep a lot, but maybe between all the naps I will be a little more active. It really is a shame I wasn't further along in my recovery from my spinal injury when Hershey came along. Mom has never seen me play more with a dog than I wanted to do with him. Mom has thought about maybe finding a younger small dog to join the family, but lately she seems to want to look at labs and golden retrievers. For now she is just looking, but gosh she is getting awfully tempted lately. Um, before I have a nap may I have a little of everything Tori brought please and thank you. Thanks for the food Tori and thanks for serving it up so I don't have to find it Willy!

Good afternoon everyone! Oh, I wish I could get into the habit of writing in a more secure place and then pasting here! The problem is I can only do that when I am on a computer and not a tablet or my phone! DALLAS thank you for all the good food! Boy, between you and Milo, we always have plenty to eat! As for your phone, maybe it is time for a new one? Or wait to see what it is like in a new location. Twinkle (My Sweet Angel) , that is definitely a good habit to get into! Now, come sit next to me and tell me the latest gossip! willy , we know what you mean. Ranger, Tango and Sparkle were all about a year of each other. But Clarabelle has so much energy and Ranger and Sparkle DO NOT like it! Pippi , maybe mommy can take you to the dog park and see how you do with the other dogs there, to get an idea of whether you would do well with another dog now that you are all healed up. Too bad about Finn, we know that makes mommy . But he is happy and that is what counts. I feel like something lemony!

Good morning everyone Happy Friday Wild Ones I just bought this phone last year when I lost the old one at the library when I went back to get it they said didn't have it but when I was there the next week and asked they said yes. I am going to see how it works in Florida. Maybe they need to put a new sims card in it or else with kids and everyone being on the phone doing games it causes me not to get connected. Pippi I used my sister phone to call Consumer Cellular when she was here to explain what it does telling me no network when it states I am connected to my wifi she had me turn off wifi calling and blue tooth and restart the phone. She mentioned blue tooth causes a problem at times I said I don't use blue tooth why can't I leave it off but she said it needs to be on so I have to fool around turning the Wifi Calling , Wi Fi and Blue Tooth off wait a few minutes turn them on if not working shut it down and restart and try again. I know one thing so frustrating being alone and unable to call out but if I was hurt I have my medical alert but I am more afraid of calls that need to come in and not reaching me. Di was having the same issue she went to Verizon but Verizon cost too much for me to use them. Charly thank you for all the delicious food. Willy thanks for serving the food Pooks hope you get caught up now that your electric is back on . Twinkle my problem I get it typed and accidently hit something wrong and it is gone but I am glad you are filling up your plate Toby where are you Toffee better hurry

Charly we do take comfort in knowing that Finn went to a great home and has a brother to play with. It really worked out for the best for everyone at the time. DALLAS how odd that they told mommy she had to have the bluetooth turned on with her phone. Seems she wouldn't need it unless she connects her phone to her car or blue tooth headset or something like that. Mom keeps blue tooth turned off unless she specifically needs it for something. I wonder why they felt blue tooth needed to be turned on with mommy's phone. Anyway, I sure hope it works better in FL. Do you know what Verizon did to fix Di's problem? Milo Blue Eyes hehe on no rut in the new mattress. Hope mommy and pa like it and get used to it quickly. Hope it makes them feel better, too. Ohhhh send those 70s this way please. Still in the 90s here with heat index over 100. Ugh. We're melting. Mmmmmm look at all that food! Boy does it all look good. May I have my usual one of everything please and thank you. Thanks Milo and Tori and Charly!

Good morning everyone Happy Saturday Pippi Di had another service had issues with connecting to network when she switched to Verizon all they did was send the sims card you put in your phone. Said the service is not to reliant either but better than what they had. Mommy is going to turn off blue tooth and hopes it does okay without it she thinks since she doesn't use it should not have to have it on. Milo Blue Eyes thank you so much for all the delicious food and drinks great to see you here. I hope mommy gets used to the new bed.

Italian food, this is a treat. Mommy would like to go to Italy. Eating at one of those outdoor places seems heavenly. Perhaps Mommy could find out some things about her family there. She'd have to see what part of Italy they came from as she doesn't remember.
Mommy could probably use a new mattress herself. She's had the one she has now since 2007. If I am remembering correctly, it's a Simmons Beautyrest of some sort. I know she paid something like $800 for it. Since her body has so many health issues, neck & back issues for example, she tries to find good mattresses. I think it's a good idea to turn your mattress occasionally.
Mommy has an old flip phone too. She has Verizon for both internet & phone. Lately it seems that most internet providers are having troubles. I was told that the 5G thing had something to do with it. Switching over was causing interruptions in cell signials or something to that degree. IDK.

Twinkle, Humanmom had her neck hurting bad and all her upper back and she was thinking it was the mattress but when she did go to the store she did find out it was her pillow that was not right so she did change the kind of pillow she use and she is alright now.

Oh Milo Blue Eyes, we LOVE French bulldogs and all that food looks so yummy! Mommy says she has always wanted to try a Croque Monsieur! Sure looks yummy!! DALLAS mommy supposedly has relatives in Ireland, Scotland and England. What a fun trip that would be! willy, that is great that the right kind of pillow helped mommy's neck and back! G-Pa bought a My Pillow years ago. Mom says it is okay, but nothing special. She refuses to buy anything from that guy because he is a nut job! A good mattress topper can make a big difference, but you can find them anywhere! Do you have an Anna's linens? That is where mommy got hers.
