Signs from Harley — Running to Zen-I followed Harley on Facebook before he passed earlier this year. Truly an inspiration to us all.

“A picture is worth a thousand words.” And we believe that this picture could be worth not only thousands of words, but also the lives of thousands of dogs. If everyone who loved dogs knew the truth about puppy mills, we could make puppy mills a thing of the past. So with that in mind, […]

President Elect Trump: Millions of People Voted Illegally — Art by Rob Goldstein-Please share to preserve democracy in the United States!

Today Trump says that ‘millions’ of people voted illegally. Now is a great time to treat him like a ‘normal’ President elect. I assume that the President elect has facts based on intelligence briefings and that he is speaking the truth. ‘Millions’ of illegal votes suggest a criminal conspiracy to undermine the election. It […]

No, President-elect, We Do Not Have To Play Nice — Gronda Morin

Thanksgiving-Mine sucked

Happy belated Thanksgiving to all of my American friends. Mine was not good.  Thirty minutes before our guests arrived, I came down with Bell’s Palsy.  I had this 12 years ago.   The left side of my face is paralyzed.  There is no known cause, and I’m on medication that will help it to get better. The last time I had this it took over a month to get back to normal.

My wonderful husband made such a lovely Thanksgiving dinner, and I couldn’t hardly taste any of it.  We called my doctor three times, but he had his phone turned off. Luckily the emergency room at the local hospital wasn’t crowded, and we were out within a half hour after arriving.

The worst thing is my left eye doesn’t really blink, so my eye is super dry.  I’m putting eye drops in constantly. I have to tape my eye shut at night to keep it from drying out.  While it doesn’t hurt, it’s difficult to eat and drink. Plus my vision in my left eye is blurry.

The chocolate shake did help a bit.
