Is it really snowing again?

Quote by redwriter

Our 12 year old shih tzu died of a heart attack last night. No apparent illness, painless, rapid--a blessing in that respect. But no more words through the tears.

Sounds like it was a very sad surprise. I feel your sadness. I'm sorry.

Oh, if Larry is up to writing I will be delighted. As will all that care about him. We are having that ice and snow combo all day today. I just watch it fall, all cozy and prepared. As long as we don't lose electricity all will be well. My son, over two hours south of me, lost power for 7 days in the last snow a couple of weeks ago. That reminds you how important it is.

I am so sorry about the Hospice thing, but it is wonderful to have help at this time. My condolences to WriterGirl for what she is going through. Never easy on loved ones.

Quote by AaronArcher

My wife just died from cancer. Home Hospice was the best,

Oh, I am so sorry to hear this. What a terrible blow. I wish you solace in your loss.

Sara, so sorry I let your birthday slip by without wishing you a wonderful day. You are such a cheerful, kind and delightful friend to all. Celebrate the rest of the month for your birthday.

Love,

Elizabeth

For the first time in my life I have built up the confidence to write. So far, I have really enjoyed it and actually wish I had started sooner. I have a lot of catching up to do. I feel sorry for Molly, you should see the amount of corrections I get. Thank you Molly 🌼🌼🌼

Okay, I have tested a few of these on here and they seem to work. The list is taken from the other site so, needless to say, has been edited. In fact, I am not sure if the NSFW ones do work here. The one I tried did not.

When using these, leave off the square brackets and remove any spaces.

Thanks for these Scott.  I don't like the limited ones on the other site at all.

At least I tested coffee and it worked!   What is NSFW?

I am looking forward to a weekend away with my husband.

Quote by Survivor

Hello, folks. I thought I would write a note to let people know all that I know about getting Bill on the site. When Storiesspace was converted to the new platform Bill was unable to get on at all. His daughter, who is proficient in technology, was unable to get him online. I was aware of what was happening because Bill and I recently met in my hometown. 

I passed on Bill's problem to Molly and I think she passed it on to the tech folks who were bringing the new platform into service.

When the "other site" was passed to its new platform it was clear that Bill was not online here nor there. 

I have tried to send messages to Bill using the message system on both sites thinking they would connect to active email accounts for him. I have not heard back. I have tried calling him at a phone number he gave me but it is not in service.

I have once more passed on the situation to Molly who was not aware that Bill was not on either site yet. 

That is the present situation. I do not know how Bill is nor if anyone is actively working to get him back online with us.

Root canal ... I dream of root canal. 😕 Not really, just that lets just say I needed a blood transfusion after an emergency C-section Tuesday night. All is good now; baby got stuck and is well despite that, mother is improving 👌 

I am having trouble publishing a poem about late babies (or more accurately one late young man in particular) which I wrote Saturday. Cant work out if it is a bug or that I am stupid... Okay, don't answer that. 

But for all the mums out there I do have a question: How come second children are born?

Hi my friends.

I have been off my rocker for a few days but started feeling better last night. I am falling so far behind on my reading. Please accept my apology.

I love my father, but he believed in so many of the right-wing conspiracies like Covid-19 was a hoax. So he did not get the vaccine. Last week he got sick. He would not go to the doctor because he did not think it was serious. My sister and her husband, who live with my father, made him go to the hospital on Sunday night with labored breathing and a fever. When they arrived My sister and her husband had their temperatures taken to get in the hospital and found out they both had fevers too. All three were tested and were positive for Covid-19. Last night my father died of Covid-19. My sister and her husband both had their vaccines. My sister still has a slight fever and a sore throat and her husband no longer has any symptoms. Next week I will be going to Charlotte, NC with my family for his funeral.

I am heartbroken and upset. I can not help but think my father threw his life away because of the lies he listened to and believed.

Until I return from the funeral, I will not be writing much, but I will try to read some. I am sure that reading your stories will help keep me sane for the next two weeks.

Death is a part of life, just like birth, happiness, love, and tragedy.

Till later. Be safe, happy, and continue being the great people you are.
