Title: Take a break .... then THIS happens!!!
Post by: Backinwellies on December 08, 2024, 08:34:22 am

You take a much need break away for a few days (been dealing with multiple family serious health issues) 

Whilst there the dog  has a relapse of auto immune issue and has to be taken to local vet. Now on steroids and marginally better.

Then we get this video   (sorry if you not on Facebook I don't have it downloaded on this laptop)

Looks like one of the big storms got your barn.  Hope it hasn't been too bad to sort out.  Not great to happen just before Christmas especially on top of your previous problems.

I hope Christmas and a New Year make things better for you  :fc:

Sorry to hear about your father's death Linda  :bouquet:  A very sad time for you. It's a nasty shock no matter what age you are when you lose a parent, and no matter whether or not it was expected.
I wish you all the best for 2025 and new beginnings.

Thank you Rosemary and Fleecewife   ..
..   with the  :gloomy:   :raining: weather  and  getting over a  :unwell:  Christmas 2024 is just not happening .. not so much Baa Humbug as   waiting for the  :sunshine: to return.

 Off to cuddle a  :goat: :dog: :cat: :chook: ......  and a drive to the Gower to visit (the used to be ) my  :cow: and the new calf which Emma has named after my dad  :)

Ok, that's one bit over, next is Hogmanay, Linda.  Just put out the lights and get to bed before midnight like I do.  Gone are the days of partying till the early hours

After that it's a New Year and new horizons once you've said goodbye to your Dad.  Hope that isn't too stressful.

Start a new thread when you come back on line after that

Hugs to you and your family.  A sad time, but one we all know
