He is just so cute! My first Siberian Husky :) I have always wanted one since I was a kid :) My boyfriend surprised me with him Tuesday evening. My German Rottweiler Ram is getting old and he has hip displacia (just happened over the last month). At one point we did not think he was going to live much longer. We actually planned to get a puppy this coming Spring, but Zeus kinda fell into place...like he was juat meant to be :) I have been pretty upset about Ram, because he has become a great friend to me. He seems to have leveled out though :l He may only walk on 3 legs, his bladder is not as strong as it once was, and he sleeps even more than usual; but at least he is still eating and not in pain like he was :) I know he does not have very much longer. He has been a great friend :)

Very cute:)

I found out today (well, late this evening and tonight) that my Dad's results are not what they seemed...the last biopsy from the whole tumor they removed came back along with my Dad's blood work...the doctor is now saying he has cancer and it is not curable. They are going to do an MRI soon. I am feeling pretty devestated :( My Dad feels good physically right now though :) He told me that the doctor said they could remove his entire bowels and he would live with a bag on his side for the remainder of his life, but it would not be a guarantee...just a chance...my Dad told me that he is not going to do that for just a chance, and I respect his decision. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers, it would mean alot to me :) it is terrible to think it was ok, but then have it ripped away.

I'm so sorry to hear that Ducky. I lost my father to colon cancer. He had the bag, but he wasn't happy with his decision, and it didn't prolong his life. You and your father are in my thoughts and prayers.

Thank you :) I am so sorry you lost your Dad..... :( I never thought either of my parents would get cancer...it makes me so mad. I am so close to my Dad. I have always been a Daddy's girl. If he dies I have no idea how I will recover from his loss...I just do not know how I will put myself back together.

Well you will. And in patient time. Do not shy from thinking about losing him. Go there and let your feelings come. Then if/when it happens you will have thought about it and will know what to ask of people around you. Get to know what you need, even if it is cookies and milk and unbearable tears with a witness.

Yeah, what dykealiscious said.

Cancer is such a cruel thing. My father lived 360 miles away, and we don't have much money, but we were down there helping him out as much as possible. I cherished the time I spent with him, and he really appreciated us being there. He was in the hospital for about a month, but my mother had a fax machine. Every day that I was at home, I drew a funny picture for him and she took it to the hospital with her. Whenever we could get down there, all the nurses told me about how excited he was when he got the faxes, and he always showed them to everyone. It was just a little thing, but he knew it meant I was thinking of him when I couldn't be there.

Spending so much quality time with him while he was still able to enjoy things, and knowing we made it better for him by being there as much as possible helped the most. At least at the end, there were no regrets.

Same here. It is still steeping. Gonna check it in a couple more weeks. The best pumpkin cheesecake/pie type flavor I have had so far is both juice wytch magic lantern and last slice both over at hat trick. But I suspect this one is gonna be great after a good steep. Pumpkin in general doesn't translate well in a vape and I believe dino said something about not liking pumpkin.

My new chuckernaut, the geyser (on stingray). Behold. This one is going on skeleton key when it gets here. It is AWESOME! Seriously, amazing. Definitely an advanced build but not so convoluted as videos sometimes show if you just snip the leads really short so they don't go all the way through to the next post. Gotta kinda use 2 drill bits and work in pairs of coils so you can tighten down a shared screw as you go. And you must use a bigger driver than what it comes with to get it tight. She's gorgeous!

I think my next RDA will be the Nova or the Tug Boat. Have any of you tried either of those? I'm leaning towards the Nova though. I also really really want to see the Slug mod. I like the look of it alot.
Nope...never have.

My parents live about 1 hour and 30 minutes from me. I plan to go and stay for some days around X-Mas to spend time and help out.
I love the idea of sending funny pictures :) Thank you for sharing a part of your story. I really appreciate your comforting words. Both you and Licsious have made me feel better....provided me encouragement :) So, thank you :)
