Guest guest Posted September 3, 2004 Report Share Posted September 3, 2004 , Hope you are getting some rest today and BJ is better. What was wrong with him? Don't feel like unfil "mommy" cause Mitzi will be okay. Paper in several places sounds like a good idea. Some other posts had good suggestions with mats and different ideas on crates and timing. It will just take a little time. Is Tina okay? Sounds like weather is getting rough in Florida.

Walking Mitzi isn't helping, but hey, what can you do, right? I tried putting newspaper down, and she likes laying on it, but won't go on it, so I told my hubby that I think I'll lay paper everywhere and perhaps she won't go in the house! lol!! I feel like an unfit "mommy" today cause I just don't have it in me to do much with her today. My husband is sick since Monday and had him at the ER last night til late and I'm so beat. Thanks for always being there and please keep BJ in your prayers cause he's so sick.

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2004 Report Share Posted September 3, 2004 Kay, Thank you so much for asking about Tina. I spoke with her two days ago and she said she thinks this prediction is a lot of bunk and she has no intentions of going anywhere. I tried to reason with her, but she just never seemed to grasp the concept when it comes to precautions. I will let you know as I hear from her. BJ has manic depression and has come down with migraine headaches and missed work all this week. Sometimes, I just don't know if he's sick or if it's in his head. It can be a lot to deal with. Please pray for him at this time and that God will continue to meet our needs. I'll be in touch and thanks again for being such a devoted friend.

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2004 Report Share Posted September 3, 2004 Hey , Manic depression is really difficult. It's real and it's an illness. problem with having something that's 'just in your head' is it's way harder to understand and predict... cause it's in your head. Well, I know I'll be praying for you and yours. Yellowshelly smiegal <shelsmieg2000@...> wrote: Kay, Thank you so much for asking about Tina.

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2004 Report Share Posted September 4, 2004 , Hope you got some rest and BJ is better. I know how hard things are when you don't get enough rest. Manic depression is also a lot to deal with. I see you have your hands full like the rest of us. My hubby is Vietnam Vet.
