My New Addition to the Family

Hello Everyone :)


I wanted to share with you, my new bird who is a lineolated parakeet. I called him CoCo, even though we don't know a 100% if it is a he or a she. We decided it will be a boy until we find out from the avian vet the exact sex.
He is the cutes thing ever. I had him for 2 months now and he is very hand tamed. I never knew how needy birds were until I got CoCo. Apparently lineolated parakeets need a lot of personal attention. I an trying to teach him how to talk and its not going anywhere so far :D
I did in fact taught him how to step up on my finger.
He loves his fruits/barries and veggies, especially apples, carrots and sweet potato (which is his fav).
Here is my CoCo after enjoying his apple:

Isn't he the cutest?

Life, Death and the Emotional Roller Coaster...

Today I found out that my baby, my family member, my little guardian, has only a matter of 3 months to live.
My dog Charlie is dying from the C word. He was so happy and full of life just 2 months ago and turned into this little ball of fur that is always hiding in the corner.
Last night he started coughing and passing out every half hour. We took him to the vet today to discover that he has a lung Cancer. It grew so big that it took over his entire left lung.


Is there a right way to deal with this emotional pain?


What is the right thing to do when you know someone you love so much and who loves you back unconditionally is going to die just in a few months?


Charlie is a little light in my dark life. I started thinking about all the things I could have done and things I should have done to make him a happier dog and now it feels like i wasted time. Time I will never get back with him.


Now, I am sitting at work....and all I want to do , is to hold him as tight as I can.

This is Charlie when he was a baby. This is how I see him now and this is how I am going to remember him.

I LOVE YOU!!!!

Me, myself and I…..

This is my very first post and I am a bit nervous.

I always read other peoples blogs and found it very interesting, so I decided to start my own. I don’t have a specific topic so will see where it takes me. I kept a diary all my life and it helped me a lot especially when I was in high school, when there was no one to talk to or in situation when I really wanted to be left alone. I am not sure what is it about putting words on paper, but it always feels so good to share feelings and thoughts.

A bit about me:

 I am a 25 year old female. I was born in Russia, raised in Israel and now I am located in Toronto, Canada. I live on my own in a one bedroom apartment. I work in a software company as a Tech Support representative.

I enjoy cooking a lot but I am def far away from being a chef J.

I enjoy putting different ingredients together and discovering what mess will come out of it hahaha

I love animals and babies even though I don’t have any of my own yet. I do have a dog, his name is Charlie and he is a Jack Russell who is full of energy.

 

 I got him as a preset for my 17^th birthday by my boyfriend at the time…He is a sweet heart (Charlie I mean ;)  On my free time I go to the gym, spend time with friends and family, read, cook and watch movies. I enjoy camping and traveling even though I don’t have much time for it, most of my free time I spend with my bf of 4 years (Gio).  

On this blog I will share my thoughts/concerns regarding different topics, maybe talk about myself and what’s going on in my life and def share my recipes and home made face and hair masks. I guess a bit of everything: P

I am really excited to start this journey and see where it goes.
New to blogging, so have pity and be patient with me. I hope you come back and visit often. Thank you!
