Hello there, ya’ll!
I’ve been quiet for a while because Mag is aging, he cannot walk as far or as fast – except chasing groundhogs – as even a year ago.
We still walk twice a day but hiking would be just too much for him. He turned 9 in April! And for both of us the summer heat is a no go! And don’t even start with me on all the pesky bugs! We are both really looking forward to the cooler months. Aircon can be finally turned off, windows can be opened to enjoy the nice, fall breeze! Bring it on!
I also have had some personal reasons – Mag is the most personal reason, tho – that shifted my attention to other projects. We have moved from the city (Baltimore) to the quiet suburbs above Washington D.C. (waaay above) and between home projects, work, animals and my planned & unplanned travels ‘home’ fill my 32 hour/day days. I have no idea how people balance kids above all these things! I feel like a whiny little 💩, since I don’t even have children in the mix.
So anyway, unfortunately at the end of April my mom got hospitalized – from out of the blue – and that is now what I am mostly spending every waking hour with.
Figuring out a solution.
To get her out of the hospital and provide professional home care for her most likely for a year. It is costly even tho she lives in Eastern Europe. I have been selling everything of value, started a new gaming business with my brother, which pushed us to brush up on our social media skills and even started a fundraiser to benefit HER. All these new endeavors are exciting but not quick enough to help her immediately.
If YOU – I am already very grateful that you are reading this – would be so kind to read about her story on Kickstarter and if you feel it in your heart to support her cause I would be extremely appreciative! Also please SHARE this link everywhere you can:
We – Mag and I – still have our instagram @magzilla44 account for our funny dog and cat videos along with – mostly – insect vids. If you are interested in nature photography I still post on Flickr every once in a while under the name: Mag Zilla.
I thank you again for taking your time to stop by here and read about all that has been happening with us. Hope to see you around!
