I recently lost my young (3 1/2 years young) sable & white collie to a possible heart attack/aneurysm. I loved him so very much & miss him terribly. We have an old (about 10) female we got from a collie rescue group & we are...

collieluv28 I'm so sorry to hear about your Fancy. Those collies are something special. Our lab mix Snickers has managed to wiggle into my heart & now I love her as much as I loved Willie. I still miss Willie now & again especially if I see a collie. Hang in there. Dogs...

collieluv28 I do need to focus on the good things in my life. There are so many when I think about it. My husband has looked for other jobs but they are few & far between. I will take each day as it comes!

collieluv28 I am so touched by your article! Thank you for making my day! You are so right that I have let negative thinking cloud my judgement & rob me of happiness. This is something I have struggled with all my life. It is tough to find the positives in life when there...

collieluv28 I do feel very fortunate to have two wonderful girls who bring me so much joy. They make me very happy & I need to concentrate on that more. They do have their days though!

collieluv28 I do need more plants in the house. The problem is that I lack a green thumb! More of them die than live!

collieluv28 I do want to get back to work. As a matter of fact, I have applied for a job with the school district & have a good chance of getting it. I'm hoping that this will help tremendously with not only bills, but my sanity. It's tough finding a job that is the same...

collieluv28 I am so sorry, corona. I hope & pray that things get better for you. These kind of stories make me want to scream. Is there anyone who can help you through this crisis? This is when I believe the government should step in & offer their assistance. Or maybe the...

collieluv28 I am not at all offended by your comment. I welcome it with open arms because I know you are right. We are all in charge of our happiness. I guess some days are worse than others & I don't appreciate what I have. A roof over my head, a happy family, food on...

collieluv28 I do hope your situation gets better. I guess we just have to take each day as it comes & hope for the best. As for people who have all that money, I think you are right - they are just plain lucky. Lots of people have talent but they don't make the money they...

collieluv28 It really has helped to hear others stories. Life is not easy for anyone! There is always going to be something that isn't going the way you want it to. You have to deal with it & move on, live life. It is tough being a stay-at-home mom! I stayed home with my...

collieluv28 Thanks for the pretty pictures! Family is more important & we are a well functioning family unit that gets along well & we are happy being together. I guess I can't ask for much more than that. Thanks, amanda.

collieluv28 I didn't think about that - part of the reason I'm down is because of the routine. I need to shake it up a bit! Not sure how, but I'll think about it. I do try to find some funny bits on youtube or hulu that make me laugh. That always helps.

collieluv28 You are absolutely right - I am blessed. I try to remember that I have a family that loves me, my kids are happy & my husband has a job. In this economy I must be thankful for that. My expectations may be a little too high at this point in time. I know that my...

collieluv28 Thank you so much, mickey. I do believe in God & prayer & I do pray often although not as much as I should. I am going to take it one day at a time & try not to get too stressed about things. Prayer is very helpful in these situations & I try to be thankful...

collieluv28 I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. This economy is so tough on so many people & that upsets me too. To see others struggling is enough to depress anyone who is as empathetic as I am. Hang in there & I do hope that you & your husband find a job...

collieluv28 You are so right - I do compare myself with others & I shouldn't do that. It gets me nowhere real fast. I have no idea what other people are going through. Just because they have a nice house, car, whatever - they have struggles too. I really need to work on...

collieluv28 Thanks, renemouche. I think it is best to take each day as it comes. Today is a better day for some reason. Hope your job either gets better or another one comes along that makes you happier.
