HAPPY FRIDAY ADDY!!!!USA vs ALL BLACKS
Wait I'm cheering on your team not USA:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
Is that a bad thing????????????????????????
GO ALL TEAMS
Rofl. So funny Addy. I know. How can we not cheer for the Blacks. They feel like the home team now. Lol
They do, don't they? I sure wish I could figure out how to watch the game today on TV but we cant find a rugby channel. With all the sports stations hubby has, how can that be? Though, since it is in Chicago, maybe Milwaukee cant watch it on TV anyway. They used to do that with football games.
For those of you that remember Zoe, you may remember that last Thanksgiving was the start of her serious decline. I have been dreading this Thanksgiving, not having her at my feet at the table, sharing her turkey with me.
Then I read dear, sweet Jeanette's post. Our dearest Jeanette had me rethink my attitude and approach to Thanksgiving.
So I hope you will indulge me as I come back to my darling's thread to celebrate her life and remember her life. If anyone has any special memories or thoughts, please feel free to share.
Today's memory- I remember the winter I bought Zoe a red velvet coat. She was beautiful decked out in red. She had gone to the groomer and was looking really sharp and Zoe knew she looked good. She always did. I stopped in to visit my daughter with my beautiful little girl. My daughter took one look at Zoe and said,"She is conceited!"
Oh, how I laughed and laughed at that observation. First, I think a bit of jealousy from my daughter but mostly that I thought it was funny that a dog could be conceited:D:D:D:D:D:D
Most likely, my daughter was right and I did not care how conceited my little girl was.
You may think it a strange memory, but I can still see Zoe in that special Christmas red velvet coat and she truly was to me the most beautiful dog I had ever seen.
What a fun memory. I don't think Zoe was conceited. She was self-assured! :D
I guess one of my favorite memories is the chicken walks.You and Zoe...strutting down the street....and teaching her to mind you with those chicken treats. And the potatoes-I've never heard of anyone eating potatoes like Zoe did......but then I've not tried it. Did you tell me they were chunks that you had cooked?
Thanksgiving is a great time to look back at all the fun times.....the heart warming times.
Several years, before eating Thanksgiving dinner, we went around the table to each person and they were to tell what they were most thankful for. It was interesting and fun.
Hugs-
Sus
I think you're going to have a mixed emotion Thanksgiving day. There will be some sad moments but, especially if your Mom can make it, it will be nice for the family to gather. Zoe will be missed, but Koko is right there to be appreciated! :)
Yes, chicken walks and potatoes at the bathroom door are by far my favorite Zoe memories too.:p
I also enjoyed your stories about trying to take a relaxing bath with Zoe and Koko at the door wanting in. :D
That's adorable :)
What about fashion? Her wardrobe, ribbons and bows on her hair, plush blankets... yeah, she was a fashion plate indeed.
But what was most endearing to me was those pouty(?) expressions she made with those black rimmed eyes. She was the cutest thing. Miss you, Zoe.
Thanks for helping me celebrate Zoe.
She always came in when I wanted a relaxing bath. She would butt the door open with her head and then come in to pester me. When I would get out of the tub and try to dry my hair, she would try to pull the towel away from me, tugging at it and if I allowed her to have it she would roll on the towel:D:D:D:D:D
Koko still runs to the bathroom every night as if Zoe was still with us for his potato before bed. They were russet potatoes cut up and boiled.
I hope Mom can come Thursday, they are predicting snow which is not safe for her:(:(:(:(
