GlennM's Journal, 02 April 2011

I am happy Luanne had something to help aleviate your troubled tooth as that type of pain is one of the worst kinds. A hard cover book is a nice treat:) Have a nice walk with Toto Glenn, TOWANDA!!! 

I took Toto out a few more times. Tonight she was attacking the blanket on my bed and it made me laugh. She thinks tarpaulin (tarp) that gets put on a few motorcycles out back is alive when it blows in the wind against the motorcycle and she barks at it, wondering how it's making the noise of the tarp flapping in the wind. It is funny. She acts so tough. I couldn't have asked for a better dog. I'm off to bed, got nothing much done today except went to the store. I am not looking forward to the dentist - whether I go Monday or later in the week - there is some sort of infection in the tooth so it has to go... Thanks Lisa for checking in, I am off to bed soon, dieting going well... 

Glenn, glad that the homeopathic medicines have helped. A toothache is some of the worst pain. And your little Toto sounds lik she is having a great time with her human. Having a furry little friend is just the best, isn't it?? I love all my babies. lol 

Yes - I'm tired and at the same time can't sleep, ctlss. Toto is the best. I don't know how I lived without her. If it's near dinnertime and I have been out, she is jumping for joy to see me. She is so smart and funny. I think now I will have a hard time living without a dog around, I was more of a cat person when young, but dogs really amaze one after a time. She is trying to coax me to give her some food now, so I will and then off to bed. Thank God spring is here... 

Glenn, I have 4 dogs, 5 cats, 3 turtles, 5 gold fish, 1 minnow, and 1 bunny...it is really a menagerie! Hope you are able to get some rest.  

ctlss - you have almost a little zoo, I don't care for fish tanks they're more of a hassle to me than having a dog. A dog gets me out and forces me to exercise when I don't want to. It is warming up nicely, may approach 60* today and the brutal wind from yesterday is gone so it's nice out there... Oh, yeah speaking of my younger sister - I mentioned that she and her husband are supposedly the only people who can't get things others can. He is eligible for Social Security disability as when one is in the service they pay into Social Security, he already gets a Navy disability pension; and they're the only people I know who have a child that has been in mental health treatment since little and they don't have her on disability when she has been eligible for years. Yeah, right. They have plenty of money for cigarettes and going out barhopping frequently on weekends. How one's bills don't get paid first is beyond me, credit cards, bills first THEN you have fun. I'm done venting, I just never got any help from any family members and I don't like seeing them get used...
