golden retriever paws are supposed to look like cat paws, and his had fur growing out like an old man's eyebrows. also have to trim between the webbing. that was so long I don't know how he was walking on the hard floors.
11:49 am
Uneaixoise
Aaawww
11:49 am
penquis
interesting...he must be happy to have less fur...
11:52 am
hokie carla
I wonder if he even notices
11:53 am
penquis
i would think he wouldn't be as hot overall if you trim his fur...
11:54 am
hokie carla
I didn't trim any on his body, and they say it's actually bad to shave a golden because they have a double coat that cools in the summer and warms in the winter. if you shave them it messes up the undercoat.
11:54 am

Minveryork
Hello to my fellow babblers!How is everyone doing today
9:18 pm
Minveryork
By the way, congratulations to all the finishers!Way to go
9:48 pm
Nef
Hello. If anyone is around, may I have stats & a clue for the 9 please?
9:50 pm
Minveryork
Hi Nef! That word is the wi 9/78. It is a weird superlative
9:51 pm
Nef
Thanks, Min. How are you doing these days?
9:53 pm
Nef
Got it! Thank YOU!
9:54 pm
Minveryork
I am well, but I am very busy with FOUR JOBS. How are U
9:55 pm
Nef
4 JOBS?? Are you trying to kill yourself!
10:00 pm
Minveryork
I have one full-time job & 3 part-time jobs.The part-time jobs are temporary though. Basically, I like to keep busy.
10:00 pm
Nef
I'm well, but DH has some serious health issues these days, his MS therapy wiped out his immune system after the 2nd dose; and it isn't coming back. (MS is an auto-immune disease, his immune system attacks the myelin sheath -the nerve coverings- so giving him infusions the decrease his immune system is what was supposed to happen, but now he doesn't have any immune system at all. And his memory
10:00 pm
Nef
is failing too.
10:03 pm
Nef
That sound a bit too busy though. are they all teaching?
10:11 pm
Minveryork
I am so sorry to hear that about your DH.Must be difficult
10:13 pm
Nef
yes, it is sometimes. other times, like when he doesn't remember things, it can be kind of funny
10:14 pm
Minveryork
All of my jobs are related to teaching. I tutor at the local library every day after school. Teach Saturday school and I have an online job working with high school students.
10:14 pm
Nef
and as long as HE sees the humor in it, it's okay.
10:15 pm
Minveryork
U have very healthy way of looking at it & dealing with it
10:15 pm
Nef
Which job do you like best?
10:16 pm
Minveryork
I like my regular ESL teaching job the best. Been doing it for many years.Online job is something brand new to me.
10:17 pm
Nef
It's the old saying that if you don't laugh about it you may end up crying. We both try to see the humor in just where we are in life right now.
10:20 pm
Nef
I'm not sure I would like the online job myself. My grandson is "homeschooling" and his dad says he gets all the work done each day by 10 or 11 & then plays computer games for most of the rest of the day. *I* don't like that (He's going to be 13 next month,*I* think he needs more socialization with his age group myself.)
10:32 pm
Minveryork
Totally agree with you. Homeschooling isn't the best way to get education, but people have their reasons for doing so. I'm just glad that my students are back in person F/T
10:33 pm
Nef
How do you think the Covid Restrictions affected their educations? From what I've heard & read, it has really hurt a lot of kids educationally
10:43 pm
Minveryork
The students have A LOT of catching up to do, especially students in 3rd grade or younger. These students haven't experienced "normal" school before. It's tough teaching.
10:48 pm
Minveryork
FINALLY, FWs! sl 8/40 gave me FWs.Nef do U need clues?
10:50 pm
Nef
YAY, Min!!! WTG!!!
10:52 pm
Nef
No, Min, I'm not going to finish and am just getting back into the groove here. I have 50 words left & now that you told me about the superlative word ending, I'm trying it on a bunch of words (most don't work! ) 😂
10:53 pm
Minveryork
Ok, in that case I need to go to bed. Nice chatting with U
10:53 pm
Minveryork
{{{HUGS}}} to you and your DH. Keeping U in my thoughts
10:55 pm
Nef
GOOD NIGHT MIN!! TAKE CARE of yourself!
12:01 am
Nef
"dang! i should have asked for a few clues. i have 13 words left, 4 from the 2nd row s
12:03 am
Nef

Nef
Nope, can't stay awake any more.good nigt
