High Five Life

We have had kind of a rough year.   We have lost three dogs, and its been an adjustment.   We had an older dog that was a German pointer lab mix.   We also had two “puppies” that were about 8 years old, that came from the same litter.   We were never able to get a breed on them because they were so mixed.   The vet felt that even though they came from the same liter that they may have had two different fathers. Last November out little blonde girl, Eevee, got really sick.   She was lethargic and had bloody stools, so we took her to the vet.   She had stomach cancer and we went ahead and had them try surgery.   The surgery didn’t go well.   She ended up going septic, and we had to have her euthanized.   It was so hard. We were with her and gave her pets and told her we loved her.   She did pass peacefully.   She was ready to go.   Not only did we lose her, but ewe ended up having to take out a loan to pay for her surgery and medical care.   Eevee A few weeks later my little brown girl

I posted back on May 9 th , 2018 , that I was changing this blog from a family blog to a Disney blog.  I also mentioned that I was going to create a new blog for me to post about how life changed now that our daughter was an adult and doing school was no longer our day to day. Well, I have been pretty lacking on posting anything to be honest.  Actually, I just realized I have purchased some things for my Disney collection that I never shared here!  I am a bad, bad blogger. We never went to Disney for our 25 th anniversary, despite our best intentions.   I don’t foresee a whole lot of Disney vacationing in my future to be honest.   It’s gotten so expensive.   While I love Disney and love to do little Disney things, Disney crafts, Disney purchases. I also love Halloween, work at a haunted house attraction, garden, craft, have a work life, am dealing with the changes of aging and perception of aging.   I have a lot of things on my mind.   Instead of starting a new blog, I am going to

Photo by Mice Chat Well, The Disney Star Wars Galactic Star Cruiser, closed. I never did get to go to the experience. It was just too much cost. Things in my life changed and I couldn’t justify the expense. Instead, I watched YouTube videos and read blogs about others experience at the Star Cruiser. I think I would have loved it, but I was able to see what others experienced, while saving myself $6000. I am including a link to a Mice Chat Blog about the closing. They did attend and have some great photos.  I was actually a little bit surprised by the news of the closure. Disney spent so much money and time on its creation and construction. Initially they said they had no plans to do anything with the building or experience. However, they have since said they may do a smaller, less intense version. I will keep an ear out about the future of the Halcyon.  I would like to go back to Disney at some point. They again raised prices and I feel like there may be one more big trip t
