anitaParticipantDear Alessa:
It feels good and comforting 😌 to read your message as well as entertaining to read the list of chewed items 😀
But I am sorry 😞 to read that your son has been sick and that both of you have been 😴 poorly (using my phone, these emojis are showing up in response to my words, and I like them).
Bogart had chewed on his own dog bed, clothes, papers, cables, straw basket, my hand brace, rendering it useless, torn, etc.
I’ve been having a cold for quite sometime 😕.
Positive note: I found a pair of glasses 🥂 (wrong emoji, ha-ha), I mean reading glasses that make it possible for me to read the print on the phone without repeatedly enlarging the screen and messing up with extra letters and such.
Yes, thank you, I will say his name loudly in a disapproving 👎 way when he’s up to bo good. (I felt a bit 😔).
I hope 🙏 that you and your son feel much better, the you got your meds, and both sleep better.
💙 Anita
anitaParticipantDear Squiggly pop:
Is a big part of your 😩 stress (using my phone these emojis show up in response to my words)-your parents “majorly hinting” That you will take care of them in their old age?
Does it feel 🤔 that you haven’t yet lived your life enough (a successful romance, marriage, or traveling the world, adventure) before you “have to” be aging parents’ caretaker?
My greatest stress in life has been my mother.. majorly hinting that I owe her my life, or my freedom, really. I felt trapped, and thing is, 😕 any human/ animal being trapped, or feeling trapped gets very stressed.
Your thoughts..?

anitaParticipantTell me about this part of yourself that resurfaced with her, and make your answer as long as you can, will you?
anitaParticipantMaybe it is about bot losing more of yourself in the efforts in trying not to lose another person- Her, inthis case. I am just about to retire for the night
anitaParticipantAll those extra letters show up, using my phone and I don’t know why, or how to stop it. Nor will I have access to a laptop for some time.
What I meant is, if I am making sense don’t confess to her, no need to say too much. Just say a bit of what is true to you and listen to her response as someone who is your equal, not someone for you to fix or save or people=please
anitaParticipantTell her less wait for her reaction tor hob usbot t I reaxue ir people please her. Just be and let her be, equals, just two humans.
anitaParticipantDear Confused:
Just be as honest and transparent as you can be with her, tell her like it is for you right now. You can tell her how you wish it’d be for you, for her. But then.. it is what it is.
Honesty and transparency is the greatest gift you can give.
anitaParticipantExcuse the misspellings, using the phone and eyesight is poor
anitaParticipantGear Confused:
Yes, not the right time for a Goals Discussion. Seems like she is not attuned to you, like she doesn’t know where you’re at.
What is her goal in having such a conversation?
anitaParticipantYes, Alessa, both computers are down. A new cable has been ordered.
Not Bogary”s fault, of course, didn’t the place beagle proofed. Not his fault. Got him all kinds of bones from the store to chew on. Getting the place beagle proofed is overwhelming.
Sorry for spelling mistakes, I should use my glasses.
Good thing at night he is safe in the bedroom. Obviously I failed to supervise him during the day, but good thing he wasn’t harmed (he could have, chewing a computer cabl??? Ir never occurred to me that he could.
You are up very early, Alessa, and maybe you didn*t sleep yet..?
In whichever case, SO GOOD to read from you at this quiet, quiet,
Time. A familiar, friendly, kind voice.anitaParticipantAlessa and Tee: And now, in a short time, I will have zero computer functioning because Bogart chewed the cable of the second computer, so once it runs out of power no computer only phone for I don’t know how long.
anitaParticipantI am using my phone, can hardly see, and clicked a red heart emoji by mistake (don’t do reds)
Did you consider anti depressants?
anitaParticipantHey Dear Confused:
There is a saying: “Fake it till you make it”, meaning here, ACT lovingly towards yourself when you don’t feel it. Some say, you will.
💙🩵💗🩵💙 ..Love by action…
Anita
anitaParticipantDear Alessa:
Using my phone, not having access to the second computer until tonight or tomorrow morning. I like your message very much and will reply further by tomorrow. Hoping tomorrow will be a better day for you (meds) and me
💙🩵🤍 Anita
anitaParticipantDear Alessa:
One more day waiting for the meds- may the force continue to be with you, Alessa (a Star War saying).
Thank you for your empathy and support, you are the best, Alessa 🙏 🙏 🙏
“Or as easy as you can get with a kid running around.”- I know what you mean, or close to what you mean, having a beagle who wants to chew on anything it can chew (including the broken computer’s cable 😞).
🩵 🤍 🩵 Anita
