What Do You Need Right Now?

I need the son to come help me to get big dog to the groomer. He sheds so much that I can't keep the fur under control. I think the best thing to do is keep him cut short. He is beautiful in a full coat but I just don't have the energy needed for everyday brushing and vacuuming.
 
re: FuzzyBuddy's post #19 You can't change the world but you can change your diet!!

I have been a diabetic for 60 years (from age 19!!). I have 2 sons/1 daughter, widowed, live with my dog in the family home (for 40 years), walk 3 miles/day in all weather conditions.

I have "planned snacks" - fresh fruit, salads, crackers, piece of cheese, Greek yogurt. Cakes, cookies, high sugar items ARE NOT allowed into the house. With covid, I seldom meet friends for meals or coffee.

You didn't mention if you use insulin, or not ? I would assume so. Do you use an insulin pump ? Jimb.
 
Yeah, if you got a million bucks, it wouldn't go anywhere near as far as you imagined it would, and you'd just be all bummed out about that.
Our small Toronto 2 story house is valued at around a million, 2 hundred thousand if it were to be put on the market. A nearby 3 story full renovation sold for 2 point 7 million in June of this year, in just 5 days on the market. As somebody recently said....A million ain't what it used to be. JimB.
 
I have my own apartment and Social Security pays all I need to live so I would slowly spend my million on enjoyable things and gifts. Cabs as well as AccessARide. Broadway shows. Help with putting me on planes to visit old friends. That kinda stuff. A million would definitely last my whole rest of my life.

Remember this show? Maybe some kind billionaire will see my plea! Stranger things have happened!

Thank you Lara, I will look in to that.
Sorry, forget the "Free" roof...I got curious and looked into it @dobielvr

Copied and pasted:
_______________________________________
The phrase “free solar panels” (and free roof) is a misleading marketing tactic some companies use. There are no companies or government programs that offer free solar panels.

When you see the phrase “free solar panels,” it can mean one of the following things:
...Solar lease agreement
...Power purchase agreement (PPA)
...Government program for low-income households
_______________________________________

If the offer doesn’t fit in any of the above categories, it may be a scam.

The Ad I saw was a scam. I'm sorry. Scams are all over the internet and phones Grrr
I reported my post and Matrix removed it.

That's ok.
I did some research myself and found a couple of legit sites to look up.
I will be calling them tmrw.
 
Just as yourself, I've had a tough year since husband passed away. Plus this particular trouble stems back to 2019. Currently seeing the meter going down but switch over is only tomorrow.

So, nerves are shot. Wish we had some kind of webchat here in the forum. Would be nice to get opinions and get stuff off my chest. Thanks!
We do have a sort of "webchat" here. It's in "Conversations". You can invite anyone to join your group. I think it can be private or open. I haven't been part of one for a long time so I forget how to set it up...but someone here can help you set that up. Let me know if they don't.
I'm so sorry you are going this this. It's so hard.
 
re: Jim's Post #39 I am on 2 insulin injections - one in the morning and one (fast acting) for evening meal. The Endroconoligist (sp) indicated that my situation is too complicated to "once/day" injection or "the patch". If there are meals out (lunch/dinner) the amount of insulin is adjusted for "special occasions".

I walk 2 to 3 miles/day (reason for a dog), try to stick to the diabetic diet (ok to have a piece of cake once/week) and try not be stress over things I CAN NOT CONTROL ( I can only control myself - not my children, friends, neighbours or world events).

Thanks, I'll have a look at it on 1 August. Cheers!
 
I been told I need some new pants and I agree, so that's what I need right now.
I personally need new team shirts because football will be starting soon.
One for college and one for the pro team.

Yes, I spend money on sports stuff, I don't have any pets, so the cost is off set,
and it makes me happy.
