Goodbye, Mama OC…

We are very sad around here. Grandma OC went to the Rainbow Bridge this afternoon at about 1:30 p.m. We will miss her...

My Dearest OC, 

 
I love you with all my heart. I was there when you were born, and watched you grow and learn to be the wonderful helper dog you were to me throughout your life. You've been there for me all these years, loving me and helping me when I couldn't do so many things for myself. When you went down into your wheelchair and then into being totally bedridden these past several months, I was happy to be able to give back a little of the care you gave me.  

 When the Big C made it hard for you to breathe this past week and the Seizure Monster came to call last night, I knew it was time, so today I took you to the Bridge so you can go to your Mama Mist and Daddy Bud and all the other friends that have gone ahead of you.

No more trouble breathing... no more pain. Run and play, chase squirrels and rabbits and enjoy the things you haven't been able to do these past few years. I will see you when I get there, my sweet corgi girl. Love, Mama

Explanation and Mercy's Getting Better...

Grammy:   I've written an "Explanation of my Blogging Absence" on my Country Grammy's Blog in case anyone is interested. 

We will be on here whenever we can herd Grammy over to the computer, but she says she's going to be awfully busy with people stuff,  like she's been the past few weeks.

Please don't forget us if we aren't able to visit or get on here very often for a while... We love and miss everyone!

Mercy is doing better and better... By the way, her ears broke out in small blisters, too, and that is why they are looking pretty moth-eaten around the edges...

Quick Note from Grammy:

The Corgis are all really upset with me because I’ve had no time to even let them on the computer to read or write this past week or so. 

We have had so much “People stuff” going on with break-ins at our Aunt that passed away’s house, my hubby’s sister’s health issues (She had some major set backs and has been in ICU on a ventilator and unconscious most of the time until this evening).

I’ve been watching my grandson for the past several days too, because his mother needed some time… the baby is due in about 3 weeks and it’s very hot and miserable around this whole area.

We hope to be back on here in another day or two, so please be patient with us, and we really appreciate the prayers that have been said…

To answer several people’s questions about our Chinese followers…

We have a couple of Chinese followers, so I got the Google Translate button from the site and put it on the top right corner of our blog. You can change the language of our blog by choosing the one you want from the drop down list. Our other followers can read it, and then, when they leave a message, I go to Google translate, copy and paste their message to find out what they said, then we usually comment back on our blog (with the English Translation) because they don't have any other way for us to email them or communicate with them about their comments. It's working alright for us. 

We also have a French follower that we use Google Translate to communicate with, and on Facebook, we have some Swedish and some Finnish followers. We LOVE Google Translate!

It also helps us to know which comments DO need to be removed as well...
