So sorry about your dog. We are almost there w/ our 17 year old cat. I just want him to go peacefully in his sleep b/c the car and the vet scare him so much.
He isn’t in pain and still likes to eat although he is a bag of bones who sleeps more than the usual 18 naps a day.
Love you blogs by the way. I look at them now and again and am always moved.

(NukeDad) Thanks, Linny! Sorry to hear about your cat. This was the first time I’d had to have a pet put down. NukeMom (unfortunately) had to take out last one. It was the right thing to do, but that didn’t make it any easier.

There are no words for the pain inflicted upon innocent family members when there are drugs involved. I am sorry for your childhood friend. Losing a pet family member is so hard. I truly wish you a better end to your week. (NukeDad) So true, Seashore; it sounds like he did a number on his family, that's for sure. The week is almost over, starting to feel better already. seashores last blog post..Flying Time in a Photo Journal

Oh, I'm so sorry for your losses this week. It was a terrible week for you and my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. When I read about your childhood friend, I just shuddered. Good Lord. Your Scouting trip, however, sounds wonderful and moving. I was a Girl Scout, did the camping thing, but never took part of such a moving ceremony. What great memories your boys will have. (NukeDad) It has been a terrible week, thank goodness it's almost over. The scouting trip was fun, and I'm looking forward to the upcoming ones as well. SuprisedMoms last blog post..I WANT YOU TO!

I am sorry you had such a terrible week. My thoughts and prayers are with you. On a lighter note. I was a boy scout for year. It was a great experience. I am glad you and your son are enjoying that together. (NukeDad) Thanks, Otter, I'll be glad when it's over. The scout thing is a huge time commitment, but it's been worth it; NukeBoy2 loves it.

You have certainly had a week. Makes me forget all the whining and kvetching I had planned to do today. Instead, I'll be praying for your family and thanking God I never got caught up in drugs to any degree. (NukeDad) So true, Tom. I've seen drugs do a number on people. toms last blog post..Firecracker

I forgot to mention (I forgot after reading that article you linked) that I LOVE flag retirement ceremonies. LOVE LOVE LOVE. They are very cool. Our troop used to do them quite regularly. (NukeDad) Aren't they great? The boys took a lot of pride in what they were doing. Melisas last blog post..We've Built A Lot Together, But THIS Is Fantastic.

Wow. I don't know what to say except, do you mind if I come to your house and watch Spongebob with you? What a week. I'm really sorry for your losses. (NukeDad) You can only come if you bring the crabby-patties. Thanks, Melisa; the sooner this week is over the better. Melisas last blog post..We've Built A Lot Together, But THIS Is Fantastic.

After reading the story of your childhood friend, I’ve got nothing but a gaping jaw making an entrance way for flies.
I’m sorry that you had such a bad week and I can only hope that the comings days bring you joy and laughter.
Please send my condolences onto the NukeKids and NukeMom about their beloved pet.

(NukeDad) Thanks, WeaselMomma. It’s definitely been a week to forget.
