A little bunny angel might visit you while you are sleeping and THUMPZ you right on the headbone!

And I don't think you'd like that now would you

It feels a bit like I'm being *picked on* here!

-----------------------------------------------------

Yesterday we did a 1.13 mile Hike in the park - without any rest stops!

Today we did a ZERO mile hike kuz it started raining as
soon as we all jumped in da Bus!

Tomorrow is up in the air --- temp and rain are "iffy" ... so I guess we need
to be ready to roll if / when it looks nice for more than a minute or two.

Way to go, Phred! 1.13 is a great hike! Sorry 'bout the rain today but I think you're right - you gotta be ready to go at the drop of a hat. It's supposed to be getting cold again around here and I'm sure it's headed your way, so you gotta try to get in as much as you can before it gets too cold.

Not picking on you, just trying to get you to see the light.

Keep up the good work!

Phred, this comment has bothered me all night and I just have to put my 2 cents worth in here.

Speaking strictly for myself, I'm sorry if what I posted is making you feel this way. It certainly wasn't my intention. You have done so much for other people and that little care package is our humble way of trying to give back. We can't be there to help you in other ways so really this our only option. Think of it as us sending you little parts of ourselves. Let's see, you've got a little piece of my hair, part of Staci's nose, part of Zippy's ear......

well, you know what I mean. Please accept the gift along with all the love that comes with it.

Now, about the hike....1.13 miles is great....don't think I could make it that far. It will take some time for you to get back to where you were. Have patience my dear boy. We are with you every "step" of the way.

Well, Phred, WE ARE like a bunch of 'ol hens clucking around you..........so pick, pick, pick..............yup, you are right.

But along with pick, pick, comes hugs, hugs, hugs!

So don't forget to brush your teeth, eat your vegetables and stand up straight

And make sure you have clean underwear on before you leave the house!

It gives others the same kind of feeling you get when you help others.

We are all in this life together and doing the best we can
but need to rely on friends and family to get through.

It helps the givers in ways you have to know about.

I think, maybe, I'm starting to understand the Meaning of The Gift ...
and to appreciate the Love that travels with it.

"Thank You, Friends" isn't nearly enough ... but I'm not sure what else to offer.

And from the FurKids ~ Cinder, Smokey, Boots, and Bowser ~
a "Thank You, Pet Talkers" is offered ...
as The Gift will become their Medical Safety Blanket.

I've developed LES ...
time to go take a Hike.

I'm not sure that we can give back to you the love that you have given tenfold! But I'd be happy if we could return it by half

Lesson from my Mom on being gracious... "Just smile and say Thanks!"

Sooooooooo glad to hear how well you're doing, Phred! Temp's supposed to drop a bit, so be sure to wear a hat & scarf & gloves and don't forget the boots!

**slick** · 02-03-2006, 08:28 PM

You know Phred, this whole thing has been quite a learning experience for me too. Here I am preaching volumes about graciously accepting gifts from others......I should listen to my own advice!!! I've had problems with the "receiving" thing my whole life so I know exactly where you are coming from.
