So, Happy 16th Birthday to Cabela! Click on the image to enlarge.
We have had Cabela, our Min-Pin, for fourteen years now, and she was estimated to be about two years old when we adopted her in August of 2010.
In spite of some vision problems, she is physically able to get around and prances like the little puppy still going inside of her. We worry when she runs around though, since she tends to collide with objects from time to time.
So, we will continue to baby her as long as she remains healthy and spry. Naturally, we dread the day that eventually will come when we lose her. Dog lovers everywhere know the pain of that
Having competed yet another orbit around the sun, the total of my years is equivalent to the title and graphic shown. In spite of that rather large-ish sounding number, I am still in very good health with only minor symptoms of arthritis and a slightly under-performing kidney. I still see a dermatologist who eliminates some skin carcinoma from time to time, thus reminding me of my younger days of over exposure to the sun’s UV radiation.
As of today, July 17, 2024, the vernabob.com blog is eighteen years old. We keep blogging about major events these days and someday we will resume making daily entries into it like we originally intended (i.e. “Our Digital Diary.”) Meanwhile, we will do the occasional post about holidays, birthdays, anniversaries (like this) and such.
