It wasn’t “Trump diplomacy”, it was American diplomacy. These people are traitors.
Convicted serial killers can have bank accounts. Not gab, though.
NYC turned to Donald J. Trump to save their over-budgeted mess and an abandoned failure. Trump cleaned up his government's mess for his community. NYC has gone full blown turncoat.
In 1986, after almost a decade of false starts, construction issues and almost $20 million of City money invested in the reconstruction, then-Mayor Ed Koch turned to real estate developer Donald J. Trump to get the job done. Mr. Trump was a young businessman who was quickly making his mark on the Manhattan skyline and saw what was happening at the Wollman Rink. He saw the potential from day one and knew that this jewel could no longer be forgotten. Given his expertise in both the public and private sector, the project was successfully completed for $2 million in just four months --- ahead of schedule and under budget.
I'm having a hard time picking up all her things. It's difficult having them still out, but I can't bring myself to go through and put them all away. How did you do it?
Thank you for sharing this. I hadn't heard it before. When I said goodbye to her, I told her I was so happy knowing she would be there to meet me at the gates of heaven one day. You're right that it doesn't help ease the pain right now, but it is so comforting to remember.
Thank you. I'll try doing that.
Praying those pawprints on your heart help you to get through.
This is a really sweet thought. Thank you.
I can't tell you how much I appreciate your run down of what you went through. I've just been saying, "I don't know what to do", because I don't. I don't know what to do to make time go by faster, what to do to help me feel better, when I'll be able to move her things, how long I'm going to feel like this, what it's going to be like a day/week/month/yr from today, if I should distract myself or wallow in it... I just don't know what to do. I am so thankful to know what you experienced. I feel less like I'm supposed to be figuring out what in the hell to do & that all of this is just part of it.
Thank you. I feel alone, but that any other dog would just be "not Gracie". You've added to my hope that that feeling will change in time.
I'm sorry. I'll pray for you and your old pup. You all have seriously been such a comfort and help to me right now. When that time does come, I'd be blessed to do the same for you.
I can't tell you how perfectly this fits. Thank you so much.
I felt embarrassed to say it out loud, like I was minimizing the loss of my girl, but yeah. It was a really tough day. On top of that, we had to worry about the weather, because the vet (where she was on IV) closed earlier each day & the roads got worse each day. God kept us safe on a day where making decisions based on emotions was especially dangerous.
Thank you so so much.
I’m so sorry. It’s awful heartache. Everyone’s comments have really been a comfort to me & when the time comes, maybe it will be helpful to you, too. I’ll pray for you & your pup.
Thank you. Lions will lay down with lambs- that’s what my dad reminded me of after our family pet died when I was little. When I prayed over her & said goodbye, I told her I’ll be so happy on the day I finally go to heaven, knowing she will be the first to meet me at the gates.
We’ve decided to keep a small box of her things that we can go through when remembering her becomes a happy thing to do. I’m having trouble seeing her toys & bed still out, but can’t bring myself to put them away, yet. Hearing that your memory drawer is helpful to you gives me more encouragement to get to that place. I really appreciate your kindness.
To be fair, antifa broke a window, police shot an unarmed woman, & congressmen busted up antique furniture in the Senate chamber. But they don’t want to talk about that.
I know what you mean. Gracie was the first dog that was solely my dog. It’s funny you call your pup bubbsy, sometimes I called Gracie “bubby”. I don’t have any advice on what to prepare for, because I still don’t know what to do. I will say, the comments on this post have been comforting & helpful, unlike anything else so far. Y’all are so wonderful.
Thank you for your kindness. We talked about getting another dog a few years ago, because I’d been given similar advice before, but had a hard time thinking of splitting our attention between my Gracie & another dog. I think it’s a mistake we’re learning the hard way. I’ll definitely follow your advice in the future.
Thanks for this reassurance. It’s much needed. I really appreciate it.
Thanks for that. I don’t know what to do. We’re wishing we could speed up time. Her toys & things are still around. Every time we try to pick it up, we just can’t bring ourselves to. It’s harder than I thought it would be, you know?
Very understandable. Patriot boners ain’t nothin to fuck with.
Mega Rush Dittos to you, Pede.
Anyone else getting fishy vibes about all this drama?
I'm sorry, friend. I'm guessing that they're going to lock down harder, now- having family in the "high risk" category. You are right, and that has to make this that much more difficult for you. All I can say is I'm sorry. The bulk of the blame shouldn't go on your family, though. While they are responsible for their lack of knowledge and decisions based in fear, their government, community, and politicians have done this to them (and to you). I'll pray they come around, because the regret they will feel over this one day is going to be terrible.
