Disney Day 2
So tired! 12+ hours inside Disney World is not an easy environment to cope with later on in life. I am finding it is much like that meme that says "Oh I got this, but my body is saying yea, try it, fat boy!". I truly feel like I jumped out of another C-130, my main cigarette rolled and my...
What a wonderful trip! As part of our Christmas celebration, we decided to book some trips to Disney World. Two of our kids and one of their girlfriends came down to enjoy the time with us. We decided that we should split our visits to Disney up as neither I nor my wife thought we could really...

Jan's by the River
So this morning the wife and I headed out early to get the day started with our traditional morning breakfast, but instead of our normal haunt, we headed to Jan's by the River. We had been there, with Dougal, several times before without incident.
Once we had sat down the Owner came and sat...
I decided to put in a call to the ADA Network the other day for some questions I have about some of my assumptions about service dog law. This was kicked off due to so many arguments about 2 different subjects. I guess I do need to point out that the ADA Network is not part of the Department of...
While our great Nieces were down for a visit with their great-grandparents the wife and I decided to spoil the oldest niece before they left. So, breakfast and a shopping trip were in order!
As always Dougal (and the cats) woke us up at the butt-crack of dawn with their demands of food and...
Welcome to December! My In-laws are hosting their granddaughter and her family this week, so of course, we get to enjoy the festivities. Friday night we headed to Cottom Farm's Christmas Village to see the lights and for the young ones to visit Santa.
This is the second time visiting the...
A month or so ago I decided that it was time for Dougal to get a new collar. He either has been going around naked (no collar) or has been using older ones we have had laying around the house. I found a collar maker over on Etsy and decided to try them. Dogsartcollar was a grand slam!
I wanted...
While I am coming out of my normal PTSD season these last body blows have been intense. My PTSD tends to go in a cycle from October through March I tend to go through my worst symptoms. Doctors have theorized that those time may be the worst due to that was the time frame I was in theater in the...
I remember, early in life
Love so easy, life so carefree
As adolescence kicked in
I found those that want only to cause harm to others
I found fear and non-understanding
Then war
Fear, pain, blood, and death
Person killing person and no real reason why
Refusing to allow the stranger to ever see...
Since I may be having to start over with my blog I thought I would go over Dougal's background with his training.
After deciding it was time for me to have a service dog we had to find a breed and breeder that we could start the process with. We had a few things that I would like to see in a...
We had a great day a few days ago and wanted to share. Dougal and I had been tasked with a trip to the store, several stores to be honest. I needed to get out of the house for a while and my wonderful wife did not feel like getting back on the road.
The first stop was Lowes as I needed to get a...
General
Oh NO!
While doing some management to the site it seems that I fubared the blog area of the forums. I am working on trying to save it but am not too worried about it as my blog was the only one on it. One of these days I am going to learn to back up the database. Let's just say it has been a while...
