Doing better

Hey folks,
I am doing better. I still miss Ruby , but it is getting easier to deal.

Now, for some pet peeves.....................the people who make pop-ups and viruses ought to be flogged or something. I have spent a good portion of two days trying to get rid of some Trojans. spy ware, and a browser hi-jacker. It is a real pain......argh!!!!!........just had another one pop-up.I have STOPzilla running right now , we will see how well it does. My virus protector caught part of it , but some slipped through. I bet a bunch of new ones were just let loose.

In other news , I just finished a small wolf picture for Liz, just gotta get it framed.
I am working on a stamped cross stitch baby quilt for a co-worker/friend of my husband's.
I think it will be really cute, I am going to line it with some blue polyester satin when I get done.

Christmas was good , my daughter Sharon and her fiance got me a Victoria's Secret cologne, perfume and body lotion set. It is really pretty, not too strong.

I got Jeff a DVD recorder to hook up to the TV. It was a really good price, got it on sale. Jeff
is excited, he likes to record baseball stuff and will be able to save a bunch of space by getting rid of a bunch of VCR tapes.

Joe got himself his first car. It is a red version of my car, has a good amount of miles on it , but is in over all great shape. He is doing good, right now he is doing his monthly reserve duty. He worked at a temp job for the fall and is going for an interview next week for a permanent job.

Jacob got a harmonica for Christmas , he is really committed to learning how to play it. He is
enjoying it a lot. That was one of the best gifts he got he said, not sure if he likes the harmonica or the Narutoo game he got better.

Well, time to go , I have to go to work tomorrow. Be nice when we win the lottery , then I wont have to go to work....................ha ha ha . like that will ever happen. Well , good night, be back later.

Sad Day (there is one "bad" word in this post)

Hello everyone.
Today is a sad day for us.
We had to put one of our dogs to sleep . She attacked our other dog again . The time before this Jewell just got her ear bit. This time Ruby had hold of the side and throat of Jewell's neck .
The only thing that saved Jewell is that she has a lot of loose skin around her neck and Ruby could not bite down.We got them apart and I got bit by Ruby . When she realized what she had done , she looked real scared. I think she scared herself. Ruby was abused before I found her. She was afraid of everything. That fear did not go away , it just got worse. The poor thing could not control it anymore. Ruby was not able to overcome her fear. She was spayed , that helps sometimes. I was afraid she would hurt someone else or one of our other animals. I would not give her away,that would just make her more afraid. I did not want her to hurt someone else.
I have always said I would not have an aggressive dog. It is not fair to the dog , she could not be a dog, her fears were getting the best of her.
So we had to release from her fears. She has gone to be with God over the Rainbow Bridge.
She was a good dog and we loved her. She will be missed. The holes she dug in the yard were not that big a deal. Dirt takes care of the holes.
I loved the way her whole body would wiggle and giggle when she saw you. She loved to give you kisses. They were sloppy, but that is what water and soap are for.
Good by Ruby , you were a good dog. You will be missed. I just wish I could find the bastard that hurt you and made you afraid . I would introduce him to real fear so he would know what fear is like.
