Lucky, getting old and weather

It has been sad in our household for a couple of weeks. Our Lucky went to see Barq's and Kasha in doggie heaven. His poor heart gave out, he had conjestive heart failure and so we rushed him to the emergency clinic and there was nothing they could do. The nice doctor told us if we took him home, he would pass at any time and he possibly could drown from his own fluids. His lungs were also filling. So we left him there. But he has been creamated just like Barqs and Kasha.

I know it has not been that long but we have never not had a pet in the house for many many years and I feel guilty but I'm already looking for a new companion. I know there are lots of doggies that need a home.

I'm old or getting old!! This past week we closed one of our locations due to the plaza is crappy, bad neighborhood, lots of crime and declining economy. It was for the best.
But this old lady here had to tear down all the shelving. Our stores have a ton of product and it all had to be transferred to other locations. Okay that meant packing of 400 boxes and moving them. We have at least 400 shelves and plus the units that I tore down.
Now if you were to see my arms, hands, and legs you would think someone beat me up. LOL

All I can say is I'm glad it is over with. We have one month to vacant the building, but I had all my managers help pack the product and toss out the shelves after it was torn down and we did it in 3 days. Kuddos to my managers.

Now WTH is going on with our weather, today it is nice and sunny, still a little chilly in the 40's. BUT Sunday night that S crap is coming our way and we are to receive up to 6 inches. The weather men are usually wrong and I hope they are this time also. Come to think of it, a weather man can always lie to us and always be wrong and they don't get fired for it!

Well since I'm just babbling and I'm really not posting anything useful I guess I'll go take the clothes out of the dryer and add some more.

Have a great week.

So glad that a new pup may be in your future! I'm so glad we got Zeppelin...and for the longest time, we kept calling him Commanche on accident; and still do!
Good luck with that snow...we're under Blizzard warnings today...and its been snowing all morning, but very light. The wind is strong today so its not even sticking to the ground thankfully! Hopefully it won't be as bad for you as what they're saying! Have a good one...enjoy your weekend off...and rest! You work way too hard! LOL
