My sheltie is 16 years old today (life expectancy is 12 -14 years). We almost lost her last year when she was having seizures, but she was diagnosed with an insulinoma (pancreatic tumor) and has done fairly well just being on medications. But for some reason, the seizures caused her to lose most of her vision and now it’s all gone.
She was still going for walks until a couple of months ago, and now she just isn’t up for it. But her appetite is still really good and she doesn’t seem to be in any pain.
She sleeps most of the time now and she’s increasingly detached from us. I’m praying that she passes peacefully one of these nights. She deserves an easy passing.
I’m trying to let nature run its course as long as she’s not in pain. Sometimes its hard to tell with dogs because they are so stoic. But I really don’t think she’s in any pain.
What I’m having difficulty with is the detachment. I didn’t know that dogs did that.
But she made it to 16, and I’m happy about that.

It is, Ametia. It’s like they can’t shock you anymore and then they do.
What’s going to be left when the thugs are done?
The national debt has topped 21 trillion and they want another tax cut?

Hey Chicas.
I was talking with daughter earlier on the phone today as she was on her mail route. She always talks to me on speaker phone. She told me to hold on as she delivered a package. I could hear a woman asking about mail that she hadn’t received. It was her bank statement. Daughter told her everything that comes in is delivered. The woman told daughter those people on the corner may have gotten her statement. I could hear daughter say…ma’am, are you speaking about those black people on the corner may have your mail? Daughter says ma’am, they don’t even check their own mail on a regular basis. They don’t have your mail.
I stayed quiet and listened to the back and forth. Woman wanted to know daughter’s name and how to spell it. Daughter says…I’m not telling you how to spell my name. Call the office. Woman says, do you not know how to spell your name? Daughter says…I’m not going to tell you and I’m not going to let you accuse black people on the corner of taking your mail. They don’t even check their own mail regularly. Ma’am, call the office. We deliver everything that comes in. You need to call the office.
************
White people always blaming black people. Like they want her bank statement. Call the damn bank. I swear they are emboldened.
Always trying to blame somebody Blackš
I love this! She let her know quickly that she’s not special. So glad she put her in check.
Ha! SG2, you didn’t raise no fools.
“ā¦Iām not going to tell you and Iām not going to let you accuse black people on the corner of taking your mail. ”
SHORT
Even if by mistake the black family did get her bank statement, there is nothing they could do with it except deposit it in the nearest trash receptacle. I love how your daughter put her behind in her place. I’ve never understood why some white persons blame black persons for everything. She could have either called the bank or gone to her bank to find out about her ”missing/delayed” bank statement. Also, your daughter only delivers the mail the post office gives her to deliver, and if there was no bank statement for the woman in her mail allotment to deliver to her, she couldn’t deliver it. SMDH.
I know, Majiir. Like what are they going to do with her bank statement? Accusing folks just because they were black people. Take your butt to the bank and tell them about the missing bank statement. I was just waiting to hear the woman say she was going to call police. These folks are crazy as hell.
These folks are living in an alternate universe.
The old bitch was looking to start something. Who knows why? Sometimes people are so mean they just want to ruin another person’s day. I don’t believe that her bank statement was missing.
Crazy old woman.
BREAKING: U.S. borrowing expected to hit $329 billion in the current quarter. This would be the largest July-September deficit in 8 years and would equate to a 74% rise over last year.
In other words, Trump is bankrupting the Country like he did his businesses.

I was talking to my youngest brother in Seattle about this just the other day. I remember mentioning to him the many prosperity preachers who have private jets and mansions and their failure to do what Lebron James is doing. ‘King James’ is sharing his wealth to improve the lives of others while the prosperity pimps are only looking out for themselves. Who is living the teachings of Jesus, him or the prosperity pimps? The answer is so obvious.
Speak, majiir! Prosperity pimps need willing participants. When will black folks learn?

Donald Trump Has Almost Cashed His Check
by Martin Longman
July 27, 2018
Honestly, I don’t know how he’s lasted this long. The level of corruption is unprecedented.
In key statewide race, Donald Trump finds his āmini-meā
07/31/18 12:51 PMāUPDATED 07/31/18 01:00 PM
By Steve Benen
As he wraps up his second term, Florida Gov. Rick Scott (R) has his eyes set on the U.S. Senate, creating an open gubernatorial race in the nationās largest swing state. The conventional wisdom suggested state Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam, a former congressman, was the frontrunner for the Republican nomination.
Thatās no longer true. Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) has very quickly risen to the top of GOP polls in Florida, thanks almost entirely to the endorsement he received from Donald Trump. The New York Times reports today on how the largely unknown congressman, once seen as a longshot, positioned himself as the odds-on favorite to win Floridaās Republican gubernatorial nomination.
Trump Is Not a Simple-Minded Crowd Pleaser
by Martin Longman
July 30, 2018
………………………….
There are many things that Trump remembers very well, and many ideas that he sticks to with an absurd doggedness. One thing he very clearly adheres to is a commitment to please Vladimir Putin. In fact, he is so thorough in this respect that he must be getting more routine help in understanding what Putin wants than heās getting from his regularly scheduled private meetings with him. But even if someone is telling him what Russia would like to see in Syria, Macedonia, the Korean Peninsula, and the Baltics, itās certainly never far from his mind that he should not do anything that might displease Russia. And, if he feels like he may have been cornered into giving some offense, heās sure to find a way to compensate at the very next opportunity.
Trump remembers things just fine, and when he lies he most often knows that heās lying. Itās true that he has no conscience about this and that lying means so little to him that he has no real voice in his head alerting him to contradictions. He may very well sometimes be unaware that heās saying the opposite of what he said just 15 minutes previously, but that doesnāt mean that he doesnāt realize that what heās saying is bullshit. It means that one bullshit comment canāt really contradict another bullshit comment because, for him, truthfulness is a worthless practice.
What Trump is most effective at in life is conning people. Heās never much concerned himself with making sure his cons stay secret. Contractors know they havenāt been paid. People who lay down twenty thousand dollars to take a course from Trump University know they have been duped. When the bill comes due, he brings in his lawyers, pays his fines and legal settlements if he must, and moves on to the next scam.
whatever.
The Uneasy Relationship Between Trump and Wealthy Republicans
by Nancy LeTourneau
July 31, 2018
Despite pushing for a huge corporate tax cut and implementing attempts to roll back government regulations, wealthy Republicans donāt seem particularly happy with Donald Trump.
That comes from a room full of people who have traditionally donated big money to Republican candidates. Theyāre not ready to flip allegiances yet, but itās clear that there are some things going on in their party that are causing concern. We can summarize those concerns with two words: Donald Trump.
Kirsten Gillibrand’s head will explode.

I believe that’s true, Ametia. They’d rather burn it down.
If I worked at that plant, I’d befriend my co-workers and ask them to teach me their language(s) instead of whining about being in the ”minority” and thinking they’re less valuable persons than am I because I can’t understand what they’re saying to each other. One of my goals is to learn to speak Spanish. I’d also like to learn to speak Farsi.
Democrats: Abolishing ICE? *scratches head* Gee, are we sure? Seems drastic. Maybe we can cut funding? Reorganize the agency a bit? Have we focus grouped this?
Republicans: We would like to do an illegal $100 billion capital gains tax cut for rich people.

Well, white supremacists have never been known for superior intelligence or even common sense. Who in their right mind would roll up on a guy built like that and try to start something with him?
HA! What in the HELL did that MOFO thinks was going to happen?
Yasssssss! The young black man had a 6-pack and the piece of trash was whale blubber. Yasssssss indeed!
Did you notice how cautious the other white guy was after the black guy began the beat down of his pal, the one that got in the black guy’s face? I guess some persons think their white supremacy is an asset until their buddies stand there and watch one of them get a major *ss whooping. I couldn’t help but laugh when other whites in the general area decided their best bet was to get as far away from the black guy as they could.
They are all in it together. Which is why if Dolt45 goes down, THEY ALL DO
