I know NMS--many people do it when they are younger--but then they aren't dieing from a fatal disease with a limited number of years left. I think that makes all the difference. I wouldn't have a problem having it done myself...I just have to think it is the situation with the ALS. He's already scared, and seeing a faster deterioration of his body in the last few months, well it has been very scary for even me to see and it has caused me to be very scared myself--and very depressed. The worst part is I know it's not going to get easier so I'm digging down very deep for courage and strength--and talking a lot to God. I just hope he hears me....For some reason now I'm afraid of being left alone in the middle of the boonies---never in my life have I been afraid of being alone. Maybe because I am older or because of the way the world is now--much harder to make it on your own especially when I spent most of my years raising children. Those few years of college won't do anything for me now..it's been a lifetime go! Ha! Most of our money we make online selling is what DH sells, not me. My things are helping to pay for critter food basically. I do know worrying about tomorrow will not help but it's hard not to! Last night when DH was having such a hard time breathing I really didn't know what to do...take him to the hospital was all I could think of and he wasn't ready to do that. I just feel like a total idiot not knowing anything. That part really sucks!

NOooooooo...I just opened a box of Christmas items that have been listed for a very long time--or so I though! Somehow they got taken down without my knowledge...several items in the box are not even listed up on our site. My DH mentioned he was having the same issues with tools and so I decided to look just to make sure---wish I didn't now! I cannot even believe these items have just been sitting in this box waiting to be sold and they aren't even listed! I know I did list them....another glitch I guess...ugh...now it will be inventory time...I will just have to do it one box at a time--I have over 35 boxes plus a full hutch and shelves full of supposedly listed items. I need a vacation!
The lady with the cat in her lap has been a theme for years. We have an old photograph (around 1880) of my great aunt Inez sitting upright in a hard back chair, dressed in multi-pleated, starched and ironed clothing....with an enormous Maine cat draped over her lap.
Good morning all my friends!
Another bad evening for DH's breathing. He keeps getting this cough...he said it's a tickle in his throat. We did pick up some cough drops yesterday and they may have helped a little but surely not enough. He was pretty miserable until about midnight. I'll be happy when we finally get that cough assist machine--Wednesday. I hope that helps.
