“…many posts on facebooks(sic).” Oops.

You know “facebooks.” They’re on the internets.

Re: Violet Socks idea for a new political party called the Justice Party – don’t really like that name because it sounds a little too judgmental and dismissive of the other oarties. She rejected some other names fearing that they could be twisted to ridicule the new party, but I can see opponents calling it the Justine Party to ridicule it as an all female party or the Judgmental Party to imply that it’s members are uptight and elitest. Others are more creative at naming that I am but something implying a populist or grassroots org would probably would work better, esp. since the idea is to have some inside the Democratic Party join in this movement and they owuld only do that if it did not jeopardize their standing as a Democrat. Don’t know if I’m making any sense, but the name Justice Party strikes me as calling people in other parties unjust (which they may be, but not wise to say so, IMO).

I’m just wondering why so many left Feminists are so tolerant of Conservative Muslims, but hate Conservative Christians with a passion:

What’s with that?

Sorry, but i dont see why american tax payers should pay a single dime on the Global Warming, it’s not USA warming, it’s global warming.

Pfffffft is what i say

Liars all of them

Obama is on tv doing his thang as usual, he just loves to run that mouth and make his stupid jokes and bash others while he loves to be praised. I dont trust him or his people he surrounds himself with at all. Desiree Rogers was just too excited to show that ugly ass dress off and forgot what her damned job was all about. Gibbs made fun of a reporter questiioning him about it, they are alike, arrogant and totally unaware of what the people of this country really think and somebody needs to inform them we dont like their crap. Im still sick of them all, still amazed at how gulible his follewers are
and amused at the lame media.

sistermoon3 – Obama’s talents and love, speaking and (moral) lecturing are suitable for clergy. Too bad he did not take over for Rev. Wright at TUCC! Of course, not enough money and power for one so great as he.

Perhaps here’s part of the reason unemployment numbers are down:

That’s interesting, Scarlet. I heard Barney Frank once describe why the Republicans appeared to be pro-war…he said they sincerely believed in the uniting force of a common cause.

I do think it’s wise of humans to consider their impact on the environment, but I agree the political aspects are highly irritating. I don’t want to be on either side of the dynamic, so I think denouncing the Global Warming as a “conspiracy” is just as political and annoying as the so-called “green” movement.

New Zealand? Et tu? I’d always liked New Zealand. Well, they can forget it. I get *plastic* bags at the grocery store….free doggie doo bags, as far as I’m concerned. At least most dogs are worth the oxygen they breathe….wish more humans could say the same!

sistermoon…regarding the private jets. I know. My philosophy was always, sure I’ll give up things…you, first.

I do believe in things like recycling…for practical reasons. Reusing is good. Landfills need to be scaled back. But half of these posers don’t practice what they preach. I have a young man with the typical crunchy-granola college boy attitude boarding at my house. The recycle bin is right next to the trash can. He can’t be bothered to rinse out his cans and jars and instead throws them straight into the trash.

Whatever, huh?

More from the mutated species:

“ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — A New Mexico man is in custody after authorities say he fatally shot his 9-month-old daughter after an argument with the infant’s mother.

Police say 22-year-old Christopher Rains of Albuquerque and the baby’s mother, 18-year-old Ashley Trujillo, got into a heated argument Tuesday at an Albuquerque home over whether Trujillo was involved with another man.

Police allege Rains pointed a pistol at the baby’s head and pulled the trigger. Rains then allegedly asked Trujillo whether her seeing another man was worth it.

Authorities say Rains then called 911. He was taken into custody when officers arrived at the house.

It was unknown if Rains had an attorney.”

WARNING! Goodbye U.S Sovereignty… Hello One World Government !

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddQvhdCyhe4

————————————————————————————————————

I have not been following the one world one government (conspiracy theory?) but I must admit that BO’s positions and behavior are consistent with him having aspirations to be leader of the world. Not just leader of the most powerful nation in the world – THE WORLD. I read somewhere that he has been on more foreign trips (or visited more foreign countries) than any of his predecessors in a similar time frame. It seems to me that he has been campaigning all along, overseas as well as here. His popularity abroad certainly exceeds his popularity here (although that still remains high). Although he believes that better relations with other countries is important (and I agree) I wonder if he is also feathering his own nest. Is the reason he told that CNN reporter in (was it China?) recently that he may not run for re-election in 2012 because he is hedging his bets in case he tanks or because he is planting a seed, for a much bigger job? Seeing him with all those adoring fans in Germany, way back, made me wonder if he sees himself as the savior for all humanity and of course he recently called himself the first Pacific US President! My guess though is that he was just covering his tail in case the s**t hits the fan with a load of failed policies and that he really wants an 8-year stint here before he looks elsewhere.

Muslims of America are about to release training videos:

http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2009/12/muslims-of-america-domestic-terrorjihad-training-videos-to-be-released.html

How can this be happening?

Islam Sucks!

I like the idea of a woman’s third party working in and out of the Democratic Party. I even like lady Justice as a symbol. A party for women, by women and men that support the principles. If I didn’t like the person the Dems or Repubs offer, and I was afraid a third party vote would ineffectual, then at least they would be counted as votes women withheld from the two parties because they did not support women’s issues or candidates.

Say for instance, there was already a woman’s party after our Hillary got pushed out by the DNC, and it was between the Fraud and McCain…all the PUMAs voted for the woman’s party that don’t want Obama and don’t support McCain, about 18 million of them get tossed to the Women’s party!

I don’t even want to hide the agenda by calling it the Justice Party, like Violet mentions…I want it in-your-face, THE WOMEN’s Party!

Sort of a gentle reminder that if a candidate doesn’t support women’s issues, we are gonna kick yer ass!!!

Shadowfax 12.04.09 at 5:02 pm

Hi Shadow. I’ve long advocated a New Woman’s Party (a contemporary iteration of Alice Paul’s Woman’s Party). Though I applaud the discussion taking place at Violet Socks’ blog, I do wonder how in the world a third so-called ‘Justic Party’ could indeed succeed in co-opting the D party from the inside and outside. We’ve seen firsthand how the thug-like, Chicago-style, pay-to-play or else, Obamacrats (today’s D party) operate. IMO, to believe a third party could have any impact on these thugs from the inside or outside just isn’t realistic. For example, look what’s happening to the Blue Dog Dems now. They’re scared spitless to buck the Obamacrat (D) party line even in order to uphold their sworn commitments to constituents in their own states. Why would anyone believe a third party could or would fare any better with its ideas/precepts? IMO, the D party is dead, and no amount of ‘co-opting’ can resuscitate it. Also, I tend to think the party being discussed would still lean far too left for most of middle-of-the-road America’s liking, particularly from an economic viewpoint. JMHO.

I do agree that a new party committed to women’s equality, freedoms and rights would be better called the Women’s Party. I’m sure the folks at Violet Socks don’t suggest this because of a PC concern that it would offend da menz.

Shadowfax 12.04.09 at 5:43 pm

While I entirely respect your viewpoint, Shadow, I do believe that is precisely how BO won last Nov. If women (and their supporters) could advance a genuine, strong, viable third party, perhaps a candidate could be fielded who would deserve women’s votes. My dream (and admittedly, it is a dream) would be for a viable third party (New Woman’s Party) to be able to field a candidate such as HRC or Sarah Palin. However, realistically, I now do not believe HRC would never buck the Obamacrat (D) party. Also, it’s unclear whether Palin would buck the R party. I’m reading her book, and I have to say I’m impressed. She is smart, savvy and tough. This woman, and the pre-BO HRC, may be the only two people in today’s American political arena with any balls.

P.S. I will do everything I can politically to make sure that BO is a one-term POTUS. In fact, I’d prefer finding a way to impeach him and stop his destructive agenda sooner rather than later.

Just received this youtube video re breast cancer awareness via email and wanted to share. After watching these lovely, dedicated healthcare professionals and staff at this apparently wonderful, medically and technologically advanced facility, I just have to shake my head that Congress is deliberately and relentlessly pushing legislation that clearly will ultimately destroy what is today still the world’s best healthcare system.

Hi PUMAs – just heard on the news that the fraud in chief isn’t going to be increasing his carbon footprint by flying AF1 to Copenhagen next week
——
Does this mean he isn’t going? Or does it mean he is too afraid of all the sham global warming emails surfacing and will stop flying AF1 to be green?

Hi Shadow – don’t know – half listening to news – will update if they update……………………..

Here’s the link to the story about BO’s changing the date of his attendance at the Copenhagen conference. (Perhaps he’s waiting to see what the UN probe of the leaked climate research center emails reveals??? Could be embarrassing. Gore already bailed, likely for a very similar reason.)

Pig Polanski is now under ‘house arrest.’ Any bets on whether he jumps bail like he did 32 years ago to avoid extradition and trial in U.S.? What’s $4.5 mil to this scumbag? Or, any bets that he uses his time during ‘house arrest’ at his lavish chalet to phone and e-mail every conceivable supporter to oppose his extradition and trial? Anyone? Anyone?

omg!!! Let them wear sweaters!!!! Sheesh, we have blankets on the sofas!

#28 Deb!!! All the more reason to inform and protect your granddaughter!

That is exactly whom they target and of course they do it in a smart fashion. The LaRouche method is to adopt the same talking points as whoever is outraged or disengaged that particular year, so he flipflops from bashing everyone from Cheney to Gore. He has no core, just adopts whatever attitude to pick off people from legit concerns!!!

And don’t get me started on the electric company…they’re even worse. grrrr!

What’s occuring PUMAs?

YOU FUCKING ROCK! and you know you do. LOLOLOL

Hey, CJK thank you! Who knows what is going to happend? But, I do know the Dems are SOOOOOOOO Afraid of Sarah Palin that their knees are shaking…. They cannot control her…Period! And, now that she is not a governor and a free spirit and can tell them to go to hell and do whatever she wants… That drives this current Dem party crazy…. They (Dems) are all about CONTROL…. Just look at what has been going on…… CONTROL CONTROL CONTROL CONTROL……Like some kind of bottom feeder that just cannot get enough….. I will do whatever I can and work my ass off to see Bo IS NOT RE-ELECTED!!!!!!!!!!! He is destorying this Country….

Casper Cat 12.04.09 at 9:13 pm

Yup, Casper. Just saw a news report from Denver saying there’s a report/study showing racist hate crimes of young black street thugs against whites have dramatically increased. Also, these thugs even videotape the attacks and apparently make lots of money selling the videos on the internet. There’s apparently a big market for these videos! So much for BO being the ‘post racial’ ‘uniter.’

personly i think they a fall guy or in this case a fall girl
/ i thinks she innocent and the italian gov did this they had nothing & they did not want look stupid /

who knows mabey the Big Dawg will come to the rescue again

my gut feeling was she was innocent. But I just don’t know

this time story has alot of good info in the case

CJK 12.04.09 at 11:09 pm

CNN poll has Obama at 48 percent approval. Other polls show similar.

yup the Dems have big problems now.
and im sure we can most likey see a few more of BOs staged town halls coming up .

Remember that breast cancer awareness youtube video I linked in #54 above, which I received in my email? This article discusses the video. It was choreographed and produced by one of the hospital’s health professionals. It has gone viral, and has received more than 3 million hits. The hospital can now offer free mammogram screenings for women in its service area. And this is an example of the healthcare system BO and the Obamacrats in Congress are pushing relentlessly to destroy in order to satisfy a handful of giant health insurers and pharmaceutical companies?!

Re the NY “Never Forget” protest, here is an excerpt from a letter carried by the NY Daily News, written by Debra Burlingame, sister of one of the 9/11 victims and one of the founders of the organization.

The letter was written in response to the DOJ’s implication that the victims’ families “lacked courage:”

“Two weeks ago, 300 family members of 9/11 victims sent a letter to the President telling him we adamantly oppose this dangerous and unnecessary act. The letter was never acknowledged. Then, one hour after the attorney general made his stunning announcement that unlawful foreign combatants would be tried as civilians, the number of signers to that letter jumped to 45,000. By the end of the day the number was 100,000.

Our Internet server couldn’t handle the volume of Americans who had somehow found out about this letter and wished to stand with us.

The attorney general has suggested that those who oppose prosecuting these men here in New York City are afraid – that we somehow don’t have the courage to face Khalid Shaikh Mohammed in court.

How dare this man, who didn’t have the decency to notify victims’ families of his decision to bring these monsters here, imply that we lack courage. Courage is carrying on after watching your loved ones die, in real time, knowing that they burned to death, were crushed to death, or jumped from 100 flights high. Courage is carrying on, even as we waited, in some cases years, for something of our loved ones to bury. More than 1,100 families still wait.

How dare the attorney general suggest that the firefighters who oppose this trial need to “man up” and let this avowed enemy of America mock their brother firefighters in the country’s most magisterial setting, a federal court.

Let me refresh the attorney general on the meaning of courage. Courage was going into those buildings that day, knowing they might not come out alive. Courage was digging for nine months on hands and knees, breathing in toxic smoke, to find the ravaged remains of brother firefighters, police officers, citizen responders and office workers. This courage was not summoned from false bravado; it sprang from an abiding love of their fellow human beings and a sense of obligation to them, their families and their beloved country.

The attorney general has glibly, and most insensitively, called the perverse spectacle he wants to invite on this city and this nation, the “trial of the century.”

Swannie 12.05.09 at 10:54 am

Hiya Swannie! The Goddess Radio music is sublime! Thank you.

I’m all for a New Woman’s Party (or Goddess Party )!!!
Like you, I believe that a so-called ‘third party’ effort focused on ‘co-opting’ the current Obamacrat (D) party is likely futile (the more likely scenario is that such an effort would itself be co-opted by the corrupt, thug-like, Chicago-pay-to-play-or-else Obamacrats). IMO, the D party is dead and cannot be resuscitated. After all, it’s the party that last year completely abandoned the very core of our democracy — the sanctity of the individual vote.

I do not believe HRC will run in 2012. I remain a loyal fan and follower, but HRC has shown time and again these past couple of years that she has no intention of bucking the Obamacrat (D) party. The only way she might run would be if BO chose not to run, for whatever reason. But, I believe that’s a scenario with very long odds.

I do not believe the current R party will nominate Sarah Palin, unfortunately. They will wrongheadedly and predictably (and in typical pure male narcissistic egomaniacal fashion) nominate one from the list of GOP male ‘usual suspects.’

Sarah Palin has, throughout her career, bucked the GOP (and many other institutions and organizations) in order to serve the people. I’ve been reading her book, and the title ‘Going Rogue: An American Life,’ is spot on. Sarah Palin has been ‘going rogue’ her entire life. Her life has been incredibly woman-identified, woman-defined and strong.

With women representing more than half the voters in this country, if there were a New Woman’s Party, and that party were to draft Sarah Palin (or HRC, in the unlikely event she’d be willing to leave the Obamacrat (D) party), I believe a woman POTUS would be a sure bet in 2012. Both women are enormously popular, while all male 2012 potential POTUS contenders’ polls are tanking.

Hi Pers! Thanks for posting the Debra Burlingame letter excerpt and link to the NY Daily News article. Every American should read (and sign) that letter. It is an outrage that her letter remains unacknowledged by BO and his administration. Burlingame and one of the firefighter first responders to 9/11 were on Hannity last night.
One cannot possibly imagine the pain of the loved ones that were lost or the loved ones that were left behind. BO’s and Holder’s planned circus of a civilian trial in NYC where this tragedy occurred can only exacerbate that pain. KSM and his co-conspirator enemy combatants need to be tried and punished via military tribunal, very swiftly and surely, and very far away from the United States.

Poor David Plouffe, he just cant get his game goin on with book sales LOLOLOLOLOLOL

http://edgeoforever.wordpress.com/2009/12/05/bill-clinton-on-elvis-costello-show/

Hi CJ!

FL Barb how is the NY event?
Will you report?

Hi Pumas – am sick so won’t stick around for long – don’t want to share my germs!!

SENIOR PUMAS BEWARE (you will all be there one day). Did you hear Bernanke, at his reconfirmation hearings the other day, proposing big cuts in Social Security and of Medicare. Now apparently, Dianne Feinstein is on board proposing an unelected commission to do the dirty work. When will this ever end? I am beginning to wonder why they just don’t propose to terminate seniors over 65. Many of our elected officials are over 65 but they have their fortunes to take care of them – they may not need these programs that the rest of us have paid for all our working lives – but so many of us would be in dire straits without them.

This is part of a letter I received from Courage Campaign this morning. I don’t agree with all their positions but this I am concerned about:

“You can bet Dianne Feinstein will never have to eat cat food. But that may not be true for seniors, low income people and other at-risk folks if she gets her way.

There’s a powerful movement in Washington, D.C. demanding big cuts to Social Security and Medicare benefits. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke told Congress on Thursday that those “entitlement” programs should be slashed to bring the budget under control, instead of raising taxes on the wealthy who have benefited from his bailouts.

Now, in the midst of the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, Senator Dianne Feinstein is preparing to help Bernanke achieve his goal.

Senator Feinstein is trying to ram through far-reaching legislation that would lead to major cuts to Social Security and Medicare — before there can be any debate or the public even knows what is going on.

The Senate should be working to expand health care programs and aid to those suffering from the recession, instead of pulling the rug out from under them. We’ve saved Social Security once before in 2005. Now we need to step up and save it, and Medicare, from Dianne Feinstein.

Hi GeorgiaPuma – don’t think we have met before! Nice to see you.

CJK – did you watch the video that I posted at #36 re climate change? Lord Monkton, who has read the treaty, the US is likely to sign expresses his concerns …

Thanks for the muckety link re Gore – interesting….

OK – off to get better and generate some strength to fight all these wretched issues.

FLBarbara – hope the rally went well in NY

See you all later

I am having phone problems…

Statement by Judea and Ruth Pearl read at the New York rally by actor Brian Dennehy
December 5 2009
Daniel Pearl was murdered by Khalid Sheikh Muhammand

Friends, On behalf of the Daniel Pearl Foundation, we wish to join you today in a call to reverse Attorney General Eric Holder’s decision to try America’s new-type of enemies in New York Federal court. We wish to add to your rally the perspective of our own personal tragedy which, in many ways, has come to symbolize the depth of inhumanity that has swept our planet in the 21st century, and the sense of urgency with which this planet is currently watching your rally, in New York City, a rally that may very well hold the key to the future of open society. We, who witnessed the darkest side of hell, and have since spent every moment of our lives studying the anatomy of terror, we refuse to accept the strategy of normalization that Holder’s decision represents. Terror is a crime against society, and should not be tried in the same court as crimes against individuals or against a particular country. Let us make it perfectly clear. We are not concerned about the safety issues that this trial poses to New York City — we trust our law enforcement officers. Nor are we concerned about the anguish of our children who will be seeing the memories and values of their loved ones mocked and ridiculed in the court room — they have known greater pains before. We are concerned about the millions of angry youngsters, among them potential terrorists, who will be watching this trial unfold on Al Jazeera TV and come to the realization that America has caved in to Al Qaeda’s demands for publicity. The atrocity of 9/11 and the brutal murder of Daniel Pearl are vivid reminders of terrorists’ craving to dramatize their perceived grievances against the West. Today, America has given them an even lauder mega-phone — in the best theater in town — and thus signaled to thousands of would-be terrorists that joining Al Qaeda or other terror organizations is one way to obtain that craved-for mega-phone. We who have studied the anatomy of terrorism cannot accept the logic that terror has no country therefore it cannot be defined, named and fought with the same determination and creativity that civilized society has fought other existential threats since the invention of gun powder. These include high-seas piracy, the introduction of poison gas and the threat of nuclear weapons; all were contained by creative changes in international law and the establishment of new legal categories. The invention of the suicide belt is of no lesser threat. Terror is an ideology that elevates one’s grievances above the norms of civilized society and, like any epidemic of global dimension it must be fought by attending to the distinct mechanisms that transmit and propagate the disease. In 2002, the international community has given America a moral mandate to fight the new epidemic with all the necessary instruments, including a new court system and new legal regimes. The decision to try the arch-symbols of terror in ordinary criminal court, using traditional legal instruments, constitutes a betrayal of that mandate. Mr. Attorney General, our children and grand-children are imploring you today: Please reclaim America’s mandate to secure a brighter future for our troubled world!

It has been cold and raining all day here in N.Y.

Nevertheless, several hundred people came out for the rally in Foley Square:

Today’s weather is unfortunate. I’m positive that there would have been a much larger turnout if the day had been sunny.

Very cool – The Pink Glove Dance….

When the video gets 1 million hits, Medline(maker of the pink gloves) will be making a huge contribution to the hospital, as well as offering free mammograms for the community. [ update – they’re over 3 million now).

It’s unbelievable, isn’t it?

No one is able to afford anything anymore.

And even tho some are waking up, they don’t have the integrity to admit they were hoodwinked and it’s all on THEM for swallowing the bs.

The ones not waking up, of course, are too challenged to converse with.

#85 pumacraig…

Not sure what’s up with Murphy, but rest assured you’re on our radar and just keep speaking up on the board and I’m sure whatever resources any Puma has will be shared with you.

Thanks for running!

On a tangent…Linda McMann is running in CT against Dodd. From what I know so far…wrestling magnate, socially liberal Republican.

We need to keep our eyes on all women running. Let them feel the estrogen!

I wanted to share with PUMAs…today my son’s doctor’s office called me. On Saturday. Personal time. This is such an excellent doctor and ditto the staff. The woman called me and wanted some info so she could personally call and see if they could get a concession or else join in with my crappy coverage from my ex. She then went on to say what an impending disaster from Zerobama was coming our way!

We’re talking progressive savvy women warning and helping others. She gave me her personal pone number and email.

You think this isn’t PUMA? Anyone who thinks PUMAs are dead…desperate dupes.

shit. no one else out there?

Wow great video of Diane Savino. I have always been proud to be a Roman Catholic. Many Pumas here have a very hard time understanding that. I ask them to please watch NY State Senator Diane Savino’s speech.

I saw- on the CNN ticker, something that said that the democratic party is considering changing the way they nominate their presidential candidate.
I guess they are beginning to realize that the democratic voters sould be the ones to decide who their nominee is.

I wish I could believe that the One World Government theory is just a conspiracy theory, but I am as convinced as ever that it is real. About four years ago an Immigrant friend of mine was working with the caterer for some orginization holding a meeting in NY. I cannot remember if it was CFR or the Center for Open Society. In any case he told me that the Clintons were there and so was Jordan’s Queen Noor. he said that they were openly speaking about a global governance and “world religion.”
I wrote it all off at the time and went on to campaign for Hillary. But seeing all that is going on in our increasingly Muslim appeasing country along with the Clinton’s support for O’Burka’s America destroying policies, I am convinced that what my friend spoke of was real and very significant.
Surely there are also republicans who will sell out America’s soverenty for a comfortable position among the world’s elite (Bush).
So America is going to have to stand up and fight and support the candidates who love this country and would not wish to see it resemble the Muslim world or mortgage US to China.
I am not trusting any of the political power families these days. They will all look out for themselve’s in this New World Order.

Hi PUMAs, looks like everyone is sort of on a blogging rest right now, but while I was making Christmas gifts, yup, I am gonna be nonPC and say Christmas gifts not frickin’ HOLIDAY gifts, I was watching teevee, without anything good on I let the Wanda Sykes show ride for a few minutes to see what she is like and she was trashing obama, so I watched it. Heh.
She was saying not only that his rating with liberals was falling but that many were growing tired of waiting for him to keep his promises. She said she donated $25 to his campaign (I don’t believe it was that low…) and that when she gave to a candidate, she expected something. “Manybe for $25 I only bought that mole on his nose (YUP, she said it)”…and that the mole wasn’t doing much. She said getting him as a black president was like getting a pretty wrapped package at Christmas, and when you open it, all there is, is 3 pair of underwear. Black underwear they thought would be sexy, but they were just underwear. She even said she thought every 4 years we only get underwear, (politicians are all the same), and now she is missing her Clinton underwear!

Heh, the obots are getting pissed.

It’s about time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Speaking of gate crashers, here’s a link to an article from Big Government via Always for Hillary blog spot, “Angry Obama Condoned Gate Crashing When Done to Sarah Palin by Funder Jodie Evans,”

Hiya BillieJo and Juliette! Just checking in briefly. Gotta get some rest. ‘Night all lovely, wonderful PUMAS. Thanks for being you!

Please check out the hillbuzz links at my comment #115 above, and please help get the word out about the ‘Climategate’ hoax! Thanks.

Hiya CJK, thanks for the cupcake before bed. Sleep well.

Good Morning Pumas.
Hillary, Bob Gates, and John McCain are on Meet the Press this morning at 9 am eastern.

good morning. I haven’t been able to come on the blog since it went down, for some reason everytime I would open the blog, my computer would shut down. Don’t know if it was coincedence or what. I am still studying for my license renewal, hope to finish this week. Roxie doing ok, but leg very sore, the graft did not take as well as they wanted, so healing taking longer. She sees vet every 3 days. It is taking a toll on both of us. I threw my back out trying to get her in and out of the jeep.
I am going to try to catch up on the blog, my computer seems to be staying on, so I am hoping what ever happened is over with.
