Multiplied again.


Lost a dog unexpectedly to lymphoma


Still have the other one! Though he's getting older.


Dropped some hobbies but picked up hobbies.


Still try to get outdoors when we can but haven't been to Yellowstone since 2018 (oldest kid was born Jan of 2019 ironically)

 

What's new with you guys?

 

I retired and try to stay out of the ER. Lost Annie - Jul 22. Got another doggo - Gizmo - should be about 2 now. Still have Zoie (she's getting up there in age) Other than that, same old, same old. As you can see, this thread doesn't get much attention anymore.... sad

Congrats on the 2 rug rats and sorry about the pup :-(

 

@BradyT88 Sorry for your family's loss.

 

I still have my truck.

 

It's the kid's birthday today. Did I mention they have the same birthday? hahaha 3 and 5 today.

Lymphoma is crazy fast unfortunately. He was a happy healthy dog. His blood tests had all came back good 9 months prior. We had left the dogs home for a weekend and when we came back his neck was all swollen up. Took him into the vet and they did a biopsy that came back as lymphoma. We started him on Prednisone which brought him almost completely back to normal for a couple weeks. The next 4 weeks were a slow descent down to where I was carrying him around the last few days of his life. The Pred at least bought us 6 more weeks with him.
This is him in those first 2 weeks on the Pred.

 

Yep still in IF. Are you still in Bozeman?

We went up to Jackson on New Years. Not many elk yet.

 

I've enjoyed living in Idaho Falls. Its' big enough to have stuff in town to get stuff same day like a Cabelas/Walmart and lots of restaurants, but small enough that it's real easy to get out in the outdoors.

INL pays pretty well and the workload isn't bad generally. I can't really speak for neighborhoods. Maybe avoid anything built by Rockwell, they tend to do real cheap work, but I'm not sure anyone else is any better nowadays. You'll likely be limited to what little you can find. We've had so many out of staters move in since 2020 that they number of houses in the area has almost doubled. There is new construction everywhere.

 

Happy Birthday to the little guys.

 

Not what you're looking for, but my sister in law lives in Boise and loves it.

 

So much chaos!!! I'm surprised how many parents just dropped their 4/5 year olds off and left. We don't really know any of these people either. Our kids just go to the same daycare.

 

Say hello to Phineas, aka Finn

 

do we still got the dirt bikes to roll to st anthonys?
