Sunshine on Sunday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The sun is shining and temps will be in the 60's I think. Emma has already enjoyed being outside a great deal. Fun to sit outside with her exploring the yard, and fetching things. A good old ball is still her favorite toy. I enjoy being with her so much. What a dear she is in my life.
We met Nancy Schapiro's husband when we were out yesterday. That was fun. I love meeting people who know about Helping Paws and help out with their efforts. When we are out and about we sure get a lot of people who ask about Helping Paws. I think that is even more evident when it warms up. Outdoors in the winter people just rush here and there so you don't get to talk much int the cold...that is understandable I think.
It is tough to believe spring is here. But the changes in the plants, beginning of my lilac bush to bloom - all those changes tell me mother earth is ready for an early spring this year. How fortunate we are.
We will be at my son Dan's a bit this afternoon. Then home for a nap. We are at Greg's work ( a church) now. After the second service/Mass we will go to Dan's. The music was lovely for Palm "Sunday. Emma lays so well for me. They call her the church dog.
I am not sure if we will be to tired to write later or not. We also heope to go for a walk today. I have my scooter of course and Emma walks. I really want to do it daily for my spitit and to give her some extra exercise.
Glad to feel a bit better. Emma jas really shown her greatest behavior during these weeks - both at home and out in public. What would I do without her help??? She means so much to me.
Thanks again to Judy and all the staff and volunteers at Helping Paws that helped train Emma or other service dogs. Emma has changed my life for better.
Thinking with gratitude of all the blessings in my lifelll
Mary and Emma wish you a good day.

Saturday
HI Folks,
We got out of the house after a morning nap.
I love naps.
I also love all the time I had outside today.
It is nice out though cloudy.
Mary seems to feel a bit better.
We rode along to Greg's work for a short meeting.
Then visited Becky and Justin who had the scooter (long story)
So now it is at our home ready for daily walks.
Yipee.
We had an afternoon nap also.
We might even lay down a bit now.
We stopped for a short grocery store visit.
Mary said I was great. I did work hard all day.
Mary says I know how to show my best behavior.
I did today she said.
Tonight we will maybe fold clothes
and watch tv or read.
That is what is new.
It is suppose to be sunny tomorrow.
I hope so.
We wish you a good weekend.
I heard Judy my first mom went golfing today.
March in MN you never know what it will be like!!!!!!
Many years there would still be snow in the yard.
Have a good evening
Emma
I like the daylight lasting longer into the evening.
It means I go outside even more times.
Today two squirells outside made my outing even more fun.
They sure run fast.

Our days are quiet but Emma is a great companion. It should get warmer each day now which will be nice. Still enjoying the signs of spring.
Nice to be in the yard with Emma. I just don't have much energy. Wanted to assure you we are okay. Emma is helping so much.
Thanks for cards and emails of get well wishes.

Hi All,
We will be home - mostly resting or sleeping for at least a few days. Dr. orders. New medication to try to see if it helps with the breathing issues and chest pains. I am so tired of being easily out of breath.
Emma is good company. She is content to be so close to me no matter if we go out or stay at home. It has been a quiet week. Well today she apparently didn't feel well. She cuddled close to me in bed. Normal than usual - and threw up!!!
Not a lot thank goodness. And I don't know why. She then wanted to sleep and did. Even now I took her outside to play and she was out there with me only a bit and wanted to come in. I am sure she will be fine.
She has endeared herself to my regular doctors and nurses who care for me. Last week in the hospital she was the hit of the days there. Tuesday night we were at the hospital again but this time to hear a speaking event. I saw a nurse who cared for me and exclaimed "how is Emma?" She is unforgettable.
So we are waiting for eyes to calm down a bit. I think now this is at least in part a MS flare up. I have books to read. I am told to take it easy. See what each day brings. Put on prednisone which usually helps at least until they taper me off it. We will see if this time it does the trick. I also will have alergy testing in two weeks among other appointments.
Greg is being awesome like always. He has to arrange his calendar for upcoming dr appointments but has a job with flexible hours and most times he puts in well over 40 in a week in any case.
ROSA came to visit last night. Grandpa Greg brought her and she came in joyfully. "Grandma I got Flowers for You".
Isn't that sweet. I cried. She hugged me lots and played nice. Then we ate supper and watched a movie. She cuddled up tight to me. That was wonderful medicine though it makes Emma a bit jealous.
Rosa also was so excited I had a pedicure earlier in the week paid for by a friend who drove me. Rosa was so thrilled it was hysterical her reaction.
So see i am resting but a long long nap meant I am able to write today. MS can be challenging if that is what is all or partially causing this. One day at a time.
Emma is sleeping already but would want to say "Have a good day".
