A BUSINESS THAT TRULY CARES....CHEWY.COM JANUARY 18, 2016

Thank you, Chewy.com!  

We've had our cat, Amadeus, since the summer of 1999. He's been having health problems as he's been aging, and he has been on a special diet. We've been ordering his food from Chewy.com for a few years now, and just last week our vet told us that Amadeus' kidneys are beginning to fail. We were told we needed to change his diet again, and this came after we already ordered his other food. We contacted Chewy.com, and they said that we were already going through a lot, and to donate the food to a local animal shelter instead of shipping it back to them. They also gave us a full reimbursement! This food is not cheap either. 

If you have any pets, please help support this caring business. They've been nothing but great to us and our pets, and it seems like they're an actual business that cares!

PONDERINGS ON LABOR DAY SEPTEMBER 7, 2015

 What is Labor Day? Labor Day in the United States is a public holiday celebrated on the first Monday in September which honors the American labor movement and the worker's contributions to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of their country. It is also Canada's Labor Day.

Labor Day means time for barbeque and other summer activities since it signifies  the end of summer and the start of a new school year. Sayonara summer......see ya next year! 

It is time to relax and enjoy. What relax and enjoy? How could you enjoy when you have an uninvited guest on your fireplace and does not want to leave? That is right! Mr. or Mrs. Raccoon had been with us for a few days now, and no amount of incentive ( food and water inside a trap on the rooftop) can get him out of our fireplace! Wow! Is the raccoon on hunger stike???? Or is the raccoon also observing the holiday and is just resting for a few days? LOL.

If the raccoon does not come out tomorrow, the trappers will have to come up with plan B. We did not even think that there are raccoons in the city! We did not even realized how expensive it is to have a raccoon as a house guest! Did you know that  you cannot release a raccoon less than 10 miles from where he was captured for fear that he/she can come back to the same place? We certainly are learning a few things about out raccoon friend.....and wished he/she did not come to us to lose some money. He/she was not cheap!  Oh, well. Did you guys know that, or had you ever had a problem with raccoons or squirrel setting up house in your fireplace? I cannot believe it...the raccoon has not been out since Friday! What is he/ she waiting for? Christmas???? 

To top it all, our car died on us!  It was smoking and we have to wait until tomorrow to see what the problem was. Well, at least the car did not die on us on the freeway or the street, but on our driveway. Thank God! Boooo...hooo.... do you need some tissues now to cry your heart out??? Sheesh....I know, it is not the end of the world...tomorrow will be a better day. Tomorrow...tomorrow.....should I sing now??? Hehehe....crazy.....

Well, that's it folks.....have a great, safe and blessed day!  May God bless all of us!!

FATHER'S DAY JUNE 21, 2015

Father's Day is tomorrow, June 21, 2015, the third Sunday in June. Isn't June 21st the first day of summer? Yes, it is! Nice day, then...right? Right!

Father's Day is a very fitting day to honor all fathers that have sacrificed a lot and gave life to their children. How and what do I remember about my father?  He is the most loving, unselfish and caring person on earth! He is also an avid dancer...boy! can he dance!  I remember him and my mother dancing in our living room while we get the records playing. I do not know why I ended up with two left feet! My father also liked the theater, he would gather us children and off we go to watch a play or a concert in the park. Sigh! memories....good, nice memories.....

He provided well for us, and there were a lot of us, really a lot! I really do not know how he and my mother were able to do it. My mother did not work at all. They wanted us to have the best so we were sent to a private school, and we have a nice, comfortable life. God is really good, that is all I can say. Thank you Mang and Pang for all you have done for us!!!

There were sooooo many, many  happy memories that if I write it all, this page will not be sufficient and I will be here forever. To make a long story short, my father was the best and I really miss him a lot. Oh, oh, here's a tissue.....Stop it! I am sure that others too will be teary eyed when they reminisce their fathers. Are you?

Well, folks, enjoy your father while you can...they will not be here forever... Cherish them, hug them, pamper them, not only during Father's Day but everyday!

Have fun, and have a nice, happy and blessed day!

Happy Father's Day to all fathers!!!!
