Doggie Depression

Dear Diary,

When I come in from outside, my feet are wet.  When I lick and bite at my paws mom yells, 'Gracie! Don't chew on your feet!'

Walks are a thing of the past for me.  All I do is sit at my window and watch the house.  Day in.  Day out.  Watch the house. 

 If I voice my concern when a stranger walks past the house...  there she is again...

 'Gracie! Stop barking!!'

Is it time for her to go back to work yet?

The skies are gray and icy rain is falling from the sky.  

Doggie depression?  Heck no... not me.  

I just wish I could find a place to pee. 

Gracie.

Dr. Phil

Guess who called our house the other night?

Good ol' Dr Phil.  Well, it wasn't actually him that called... but an assistant producer.  Once again, they wanted Gary to do a show on Parental Alienation.  This is the 4th time they've called us in the past few years.  

 Gary said "OF COURSE I WILL!"

But the problem is, they won't do a show without both the mother and father of the alienated child.  Gary's X refuses to go on.  Why would she?  Guilty people don't want to be exposed.  His daughter was drugged, brainwashed, bribed, and hypnotized and finally she turned against her father.  I used to be angry about it, but I'm not so much any more.  I'm mostly sad.  

And so...  the show once again will not happen.  

For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, Gary's daughter was turned against him in '06 in one of the cruelest, most horrible cases of parental alienation I've yet to find.   I didn't even know what parental alienation was!  When I googled some of the things that were going on, that's when I discovered what was happening.  

Jealousy is terrible thing.  I'm sorry that the X felt threatened.  We did not mean for her to feel that way. We only wanted Athena to feel loved.

Some memories.  The last few pictures were of the last time we ever saw Athena. After that visit, she was not to return.


 She is now an adult.

I Will Guard My Words

I think this is the longest I've ever stayed home.  One week down.  One more to go.  I guess I shouldn't have mentioned a while back on my 

Facebook page that I'd like to 

hibernate until spring. 

 This is not what I meant.

I will guard my words from here on out.  

Let it go on record that I am now 

asking for $10,000- no strings attached.

LOL

It was a good Sunday though, and I'm feeling better with each day.   

 These two have been taking such good care of me.  Here they are with their morning hair - and faces. 

Gracie's eyes have gone from worried to annoyed... 

'oh no! not another picture!!'

   I snapped a picture on my journey 

out into the living room.  

Yea, I know.  

It doesn't get much more exciting than this.  

Then I had a fun visit with my little Rissa.  We played games on my phone...  Princess makeover, Baby makeover, and Sponge Bob memory.  

Then I let her take my Get Well Balloon home.  

It seems Pinkie 
(her best-est stuffed-bear friend) is ill.

 She needs it more than I do. 

Get Well Pinkie.
