SHOW YOUR REASON FOR LIVING

[GotSmart]

Pets is such an inaccurate word for the relationship that most of us have with the furry or fuzzy ones that we provide everything for. It might be me because I have been a lifelong servant to cats. I had a couple of dogs, and a goose but primarily cats. 

How about we show others exactly what is the motivation to stay alive for. 

To start with is my photo, which is of Tigger. That was taken my first year in Quartzsite. 


Then there is Guida. We found her eating dinner with the raccoons. This picture is of her trying to figure out what a bunny is 

Then came Tony. He promised that I would never be bored. That is a picture of him making Camilla’s dog Sam nervous 

Finally Tigger brought home a tortoise shell kitten about 6 months before his death. T C   She has tortitude. 

Show us your kids!

I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SHARE PICTURES OF QUEENIE AND HER BROTHER NOW THAT THEY ARE 14 YEARS OLD.   HE HAS BECOME QUEENIE'S SUPPORT ANIMAL.   HE ATTEMPTS TO GROOM HER LIKE SHE WAS A CAT I'VE EVEN CAUGHT HIM TRYING TO LICK HER FACE CLEAN ONCE AND SHE IS NOT SO HAPPY WITH THE FACE CLEANING PART. SHE PUTS UP WITH HIM TRYING TO LICK FUR OFF OF HER ON HER BACK AND HER SIDES BUT WHEN HE GETS UP IN HER FACE SHE JUST REALLY GIVES HIM THAT LITTLE YOU CAN'T TOUCH THIS WARNING GROWL.

SOMETIME IN THE PAST I THINK I TEXTED PICTURES OF THEM TO CAMALU AND SHE POSTED THEM FOR ME. I MAY BE MISTAKEN ABOUT THIS.  LAST AUGUST I FORGOT MY PHONE AT A BIG SHELL STATION AND I WAS 2 MI UP THE ROAD WHEN I REMEMBERED IT AND I WAS TOO LATE TO GO BACK WHILE I WENT BACK BUT IT WASN'T THERE.  THIS IS MY SECOND PHONE SINCE THEN AND I'M STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET ALL THE THINGS TO FUNCTION ON IT.  THE GUY WHO SOLD ME MY FIRST PHONE AT WALMART WAS ABLE TO PULL EVERYTHING FROM THE CLOUD OR WHEREVER THE HELL IT WAS HIDING WITH MY LUCK A HOLE IN THE GROUND AND GET IT ON THE GET IT ON THE FIRST PHONE THEN TRANSFERRED IT TO THE SECOND PHONE AND THEN TRANSFERRED IT TO THIS PHONE.  SO I HAVE THE PICTURES I JUST CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO TEXT THEM TO ANYBODY.

I HAVE SPENT A SOLID 5 HOURS TODAY ON THE PHONE TRYING TO FIND A PLACE TO MOVE TO.

I'VE COVERED MOST OF KENTUCKY FROM OWENSBORO DOWN TO BOWLING GREEN AND BACK UP TO THE EAST SIDE AT CLOVERPORT AND THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF AN APARTMENT IN CLOVERPORT. I HAVE A FEELING THAT THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE OPEN TO TWO SMALL DOGS CHIHUAHUAS EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE SERVICE ANIMALS I JUST DON'T KNOW.

THERE IS A COMPANY THAT HAS RENTAL HOMES AND APARTMENTS IN THE OWENSBORO AREA AND THERE WOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM WITH ME HAVING THEM THERE.   I WOULD BE CHARGED 5% OF MY RENT ON TOP OF THE RENT BECAUSE OF THE DOGS EACH MONTH.   THEN THERE IS A DEPOSIT I BELIEVE WHAT THEY TOLD ME ALL TOGETHER THAT THE DEPOSIT WOULD BE I'M TRYING TO REMEMBER ANYWAY SOMEONE GODLY AMOUNT IT EITHER IS THE SAME AS THE RENT PLUS ON TOP OF IT AND IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY TO GET OUR FEETS IN THE DOORS IT WOULD BE PROBABLY AROUND $1,200 AND IF I ALSO REMEMBER CORRECTLY THE DEPOSIT IS NOT REFUNDABLE.

IF I WAS MORE LIMBER AND A CONTORTIONIST I WOULD BE STEADILY KICKING MYSELF IN THE BUTT SIMPLY BECAUSE I HAVE JUST ABOUT ALL THE SUPPLIES I COULD USE EXCEPT A 12-VOLT REFRIGERATOR TO ACTUALLY BE ABLE TO LIVE COMFORTABLY OUT OF THE VAN ALONE.   AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED THE VAN STILL NEEDS ELECTRIC BRAKES I NEED THE LAST TWO INCHES OF THE 4-IN LEAF SPRING SYSTEM ALREADY PUT IN IT RAISE THE LAST TWO AND WHILE WE PUT HEAVY DUTY SHOCKS AND BRAKES ON THE FRONT THE SHOCKS AND THE REAR BRAKES AREN'T BAD HOWEVER I WOULD BE MORE COMFORTABLE WITH A HEAVY DUTY SHOCKS ON THE BACK.

ALL SAID AND DONE I AM PREPARING TO GET THE HELL OUT OF ALABAMA AND AWAY FROM THIS YOUNG MAN THAT I THINK I'VE SPOKEN ABOUT ON HERE THAT IS A DANGER TO MYSELF AND QUEENIE AND RAT DOG.   LAST SUMMER WHILE I WAS STANDING IN THE DOORWAY OF HIS FAMILY HOME HE DID NOT LIKE WHAT I SAID TOLD ME HE WASN'T GOING TO TALK TO ME ABOUT IT AND SLAM THE DOOR SO HARD IT LITERALLY KNOCKED ME OUT OF ONE OF MY SHOES AND MY HAND THAT WAS ON THE DOOR I DOUBLED INTO A FIST AND I HIT MYSELF IN MY CHEST.  I SNATCHED QUEENIE GOT MY PURSE GOT MY PHONE WENT OUT THE DOOR CALLED 911 MET A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER AWAY FROM THE HOUSE AND TOLD HIM WHAT WAS GOING ON.   THE POLICE REPORT WAS FILED HOWEVER I DID NOT PURSUE IT SIMPLY FOR THE FACT THAT IT WOULD LEAVE MY FRIEND WHO TOOK 2 YEARS TO PASS AWAY HERE IN THE FAMILY HOME ALONE AND I'M PROTECTED TOTALLY BEDRIDDEN AT LEAST I STILL GOT MY LEGS UNDER ME.

I HAVE RECENTLY TOLD HIM THAT I DO NOT WANT THIS HOUSE THIS WAS HIS FATHER'S HOUSE I'M NOT GOING TO KEEP HIM AWAY FROM HIS FATHER'S HOUSE HOWEVER HE NEEDS TO GIVE ME TIME TO FINISH PACKING THINGS UP AND FINDING A PLACE TO LIVE.   WE WERE HAVING A DECENT CONVERSATION OVER THE PHONE FIRST TIME I HAVE SPOKEN TO HIM IN ABOUT 2 MONTHS UNTIL THE POINT WHERE I TOLD HIM NO I WAS NOT COMFORTABLE WITH HIM COMING BACK INTO THE HOUSE AS LONG AS I WAS IN IT.    I BECAME A LOT OF BAD NAMES BUT HE STILL COULDN'T OUT CUZ MY GRANDMA :

TJB.    QUEENIE AND RATT DAWG.

I'M TO DANG TIRED TO READ THIS AND MAKE ANY CORRECTIONS SO PLEASE JUST BEAR WITH ME

First we have Baby Piker with my work partner on the day I brought him home.

Then several years later at the Bar with a Hemingway level drinking problem


And finally a few years later attempting to travel to The London International Book Festival.

Then there is Myron the thing of evil that I used to babysit conjured by the blonde you saw earlier pictured. His favorite game was the box and it usually resulted in blood and if I looked in the box, sometimes a cat hanging off my nose that resulted in a lot of blood I didn’t get pictures.

Guida may have been trying to figure out if the bunny was edible.

I had a cat, the sweetest and petite cat, that would hunt young bunnies and leave the unlucky rabbit feet on the porch steps.

[GotSmart]

She watches and plays with little critters. All three cats found a big mouse one morning. If they poked at it it would curl up into a ball. If they bit at it it would bite their lip. They played all day and come dark it headed to the woods. 

She gets enough food at home.

Yep. Tony passes enough gas to power an eternal flame.

Annie was a rescue. I got her when she was about 3 years old (according to the vet). She was sweet, loving, and sometimes really annoying (she insisted on being petted 24/7). lol 

I cried like a baby when she passed; she was at least 14 years old. It was about a month before I retired. I really wasn't sure how she was going to take to living in an RV. She was already blind and deaf. (To clarify, I did not have her put down, I was definitely planning taking her with me.)

Sometimes while driving late at night , look in the rear view. Really quick.
Little ghost Annie just might be there running behind .
