We have the same situation in our family with politics, and it is a under current frustration. And many times words flare to! Yes I got the message about your friend's cat. Here is the reply I posted in response. I copied and pasted it here so you wouldn't have to look back: "I am so sorry. Was it sudden or did she have to put her cat down? Hi Leslie, Sorry I missed your comment. Blogger has change a few things, making the set up a bit different and not seeing the comments as easily.Unfortunately my husband and mom are electronic challenged so neither of them know how to use my phone let alone the video.He he! Tell your friend Jody, I am so sorry for her loss. I really feel her pain. When you are in the club of calling your pet your "Best Friend", it can take a long time to get over your loss, if ever. I still tear up when ever I think of Mallery, and have heard some people say you never really get over missing them. I agree with you that certain pet/owner bonds are extremely strong that really cant be compared to any human person. People are people with their flaws, but animals are gifts from God. I think he knew we needed unconditional Love like Jesus gives us.I love that Jody and Jack even sound like a perfect match. I will add Jody into my prayers because I know the loss she has and will feel for a while. The only thing that give me joy is knowing Mallery and all pets that go to heaven, is they no longer feel pain and are free to run, see and be happy again. Take care and thanks for sharing about your friend".diane-j-mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07485256483873776321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6465435467021522813.post-64937041082269890702017-02-21T23:51:02.141-06:002017-02-21T23:51:02.141-06:00Hi Diane, Your family is just like all of ours.

The first 2 days my sister was here visiting for Christmas(she lives in Alaska) there was lots of heated words between her and my brother over President Trump. My brother and I voted for him and my sister was for Hillary. I felt like I was the referee and mediator and it was very stressful to say the least. He lives here in Eureka and he left and went home twice because of the fighting. They did good on the last 2 days of the visit though. In my experience these sort of flare ups are very common in families. We can choose our friends but not our family and just because we are family doesn't always mean we get along as well as we do with our friends. In the end you all did make the effort to travel to the party and that's all that mattered to your Mom. Your kitchen is beautiful, I love your style! By the way did you get my last post(the one about my girlfriends cat passing away?) Bless you Leslie +_+ Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05924400255046046168noreply@blogger.com
