How's Everyone Doing?

[Disney Duster]

Wow, Cherny! Congratulations! And good job on those tests! Good luck with the whole course!

I don't remember what the funny picture thread is called, but this is Covid-related so it fits here. I thought it had some clever memes:

Oh I LOVED those! Thanks Amy!!! My favorite was the last one. Got the biggest laugh outta me.

Anyone get boosted yet? Because I did the other day!

[blackcauldron85]

good for you (and thank you!)! Yes, I got boosted on Halloween. My husband just got boosted the other day, thank goodness.

[Rose Dome]

I got my booster the other day

Not that it helps much given how things have been messed up here in Australia. I’am still scared to even enjoy a picnic with my friends

[blackcauldron85]

You're part of the solution, though, getting your booster, so thank you for getting it. If more people got their shots, we wouldn't be in quite the mess we're in. . Try and keep safe.

[Rose Dome]

It is true that getting your booster is being part of the solution. I’ll be trying to stay safe as well. We’re well vaccinated here but restrictions were eased at a terrible time.

I've recently undergone a series of surgeries for a spinal issue, and I'm now in the middle of a long recovery process. The physical therapy sessions are tough, and the whole experience has been more draining than I anticipated.
One thing that's been surprisingly helpful is CBD. Yeah, CBD. I was skeptical at first, but it's really made a difference in managing the pain and stress that come with all this. I'm subscribed to Releaf, a medical cannabis clinic, and they take care of it all.

[UmbrellaFish]

That’s rough, drfsupercenter. Wishing you speedy progress with the healing process.

[blackcauldron85]

:hug: drfsupercenter, that sounds so difficult. I'm glad you're able to get some relief, but I hope you can rest and heal.

I had to put my dog Trixi down yesterday. While she had been to the vet's a lot lately, that was for tummy issues. I brought her in yesterday for a limp, and it turned out to be sudden onset bone cancer. She was 14 years old and pain medicine I had her on only was a Band-aid and clearly wasn't doing the job so it was really the only humane option. My heart is broken. I can't even keep food down I'm so sad. She was a great dog. I'm down to one dog left of my pack, Lucy. She was looking for Trixi this morning and that was really sad.

And I found out that my ex-husband got remarried (which I don't care about) and I googled that he sold the house. (My dad asked if I told him about Trixi and he wanted a paw print and he said his wife can meet me to swap the paw print and with items of mine that he has (that he never told me about). What a day. The ex stuff it is what it is, but my heart is broken for my dog. I know she's in a better place with her siblings now but it's really hard .

[UmbrellaFish]

Amy, I’m so sorry to hear of the loss of your pet. I know how much you care for your animals, I’m sure Trixi (and Lucy) were the best loved dogs on the planet. It is kind of you to give a memento of Trixi to your ex. Wishing you peace and healing at this time, and sending virtual hugs.

[blackcauldron85]

Thank you <3. I appreciate your kind words. Lucy has been very vocal the past couple hours so I think she either misses her sister or is afraid she'll be alone or something. It's sad.

[UmbrellaFish]

Poor Lucy, it must be very hard to watch her. You are both grieving. I know it will take a while to get through this, but I hope things get a bit better everyday.

[blackcauldron85]

Thank you. *Hug*

[Disney's Divinity]

I'm sorry, blackcauldron85. At least when there's severe pain of that kind, there is some small comfort that there was no other option and now there can be no more suffering.

[blackcauldron85]

Thank you. <3. I do take solace knowing she's not hurting. Lucy just looked for her sister again. It's so heartbreaking. I got through work today (I took the past couple days off) and I cried a lot, but I made it.

[taylelerly]

I feel bad today. I have terrible dizziness and a sore throat.
