Wow! 10 years and my blog is still standing...

 The day you realize your long forgotten blog is still alive and <mind blown>. A lot of shit happens in a 10 year span ,a whole lot of new chapters in your life time novella. Loved ones lost ,new ones born. I've become a GiGi 3 times over ,I've lost a brother, father and a beloved mother in law in that time. Watched a loved one finally hit the bottom of a bottle and self destruct in some pretty devastating ways, watched that same loved one as they began their recovery from alcoholism and cheered them as they stayed dry for the past 7 years. Then there was Covid. From that experience I learned just who would survive a zombie apocalypse and who wouldn't, if Ebola or some equally deadly virus ever came to the US it would be a shit show. I quit smoking for a couple years, then picked it back up ,now I'm quitting again. When you notice more and more of your friends being diagnosed with various cancers you start worrying about your own health and my plan is to be around at least long enough to be  GGiGi. I lost 3 of my original pack Ozzy, Milo & Loki. Bella my old yellow Lab will be 15 this year ,getting old is not kind to either humans or dogs but she still has her days when she's still pretty spry. Now I have the brat pack ,4 insanely cute Boston Terriers ... Tulip, Riley, Biscuits & Sophie. Maybe I'll be back to write some more random shit ...maybe not. Much love & light.
