I have wanted to get another dog to replace him for a long time but Kathleen was not ready and then we started our remodel and the house has been torn up for the last year and a half and we are probably at the point where we have been without a dog long enough that we probably will not be getting another one.
If Kathleen were to have another dog she would want a small dog, I on the other hand would want a dog around the size of a Golden Retriever, Vizsla or Standard Poodle. Even a Goldendoodle or a Labradoodle would work for me as they like the Standard Poodle do not shed as they have hair instead of fur.
So since we probably will never agree on the size of dog we probably will not be getting one. In a way it makes it easier to just pick up and go some where with out having to worry about finding a place for the dog or even if we go someplace in town having to hurry back to let the dog out.
Well, this has been a hectic day, Alyssa had to take Hayden to the hospital as he had a sliver in one of his fingers. I just tried calling and there was no answer so they still must be at the hospital.
Then Chucky took Snickers to the vet to get his shots and he had an allergic reaction to the shot. So we took off to meet Chucky at the vets and before we got there Chucky called my cell and said that he was at our house.
When we left dinner had just finished cooking so I invited Chucky to wait for us to return and he could have dinner with us. So last night we had Alyssa and her children for dinner and tonight we had Chucky eating with us; almost like old times.
Kathleen and I have been working at doing Spring Cleaning and have just about gone through the living room, dining room and kitchen sorting things out and rearranging the furniture.
I made a trip to Goodwill yesterday and dropped off the SUV full of stuff and we already have started on another box to take next week. We have decided that rather than wait until we have a full load we will just make more trips so that we can get the stuff out of the house.
Well, Chucky is still here, so I will post this and go visit some more.

I'm glad you wrote, even though it was kind of a sad letter. Losing a pet is not easy. You are like me - we never forget a date! Sometimes I wish I could forget the sad dates.
It took me a little over 2 years to get another cat after our Kika died. I love having the cats and Mom really enjoys them so much.
She was a little better today, but by late afternoon, she was in pain again. There is definite improvement - it is just very slow.
Is Snickers okay after the allergic reaction? I assume he must be since Chuckie was having dinner with you.
How did Hayden make out at the emergency room? It is always something when you have kids!
Thanks again for writing. Mom will be happy to have something to read today!
Love,
Sue
Snickers was okay, after dinner Chucky left to pick him up at the vets. They wanted to keep him a while longer to make sure that he would be okay.
Hayden did okay at the ER and Alyssa, Dan and family went over to visit some friends last night.
