So happy to see Zeus dipping his feet back in the water!

[serenasea]

Having noticed a few recent posts from zeus on the forum, I just want to say how much I've missed him! (And Zeus, I wouldn't mind seeing some pics of your new puppy, who no doubt has made you its slave.)

[Jen Jen]

Yes, me too! I'm looking forward to some puppy pics. Miss you, Zeus!

[sondor]

Glad to see My Buddy back as well...

[zeus]

I was trying to make a quiet comeback, but I guess that can't happen. I have missed you guys also and have thought of everyone a lot.
A lot happened over the past several months that even if I wasn't over gambling, life threw a lot at me to where I had no free time so I had no choice.
My manager at work was out on short term for over 3 months. With me being next in line, it all fell on me. It was really not a fun period. But he is finally back. My mother had to have surgery at the first of November , but that turned out well. My father's health has declined, so I make frequent trips to Virginia. I am in Virginia now because he turned 84 yesterday.
Then throw the holidays in there.

Yes, Allen and I got a new fur baby at the end of October. He is almost 7 months now and is truly a good boy. When Allen travels I spend extra time with Gage. Yes, I am almost like the crazy cat lady, except with a dog, and only one. Just trying to make sure he learns well. But I can say it is a lot having a puppy full of energy when you are 53.[emoji46]

My time is still limited, so I may come up MIA at times, but it should not be often and short lived.

Gage is awesome! I'd spend every minute I could with him too! Gambling aside, we're also glad to see you back here, to know how you and Allan are doing. We missed you guys!

[clemi]

So nice to see your posts, love little Gage!

We are so glad to see you back on here!! It just hasn't been the same without you.
Totally understand about time constraints and spending as much time with possible with that precious pup!

[BorgataBabe]

My turn to tell you - You are a good son!!

Glad to see you around and doing well. Instead of puppies, I have grand babies and they are wearing me out!!

[Penguin]

First of all hope all improves with your parents health issues. Secondly, the doggie is really cute. If it gets "too much" for an old guy like you we'll take it. hhh Glad to see you dropping in. Great group of people here. In a way congrats for stepping in and taking over for the boss at work. Means they think a lot of you and you are capable. Lastly, ENJOY LIFE!!!!!!

[Laurie]

This is what Gage has got me doing now. He loves to go on walks, so every day after work it is at least a 45 minutes walk. No longer sitting on my ass.

This is called the Chessie Trail near my parents house. Beautiful walk along the river and meeting up with lots of doggies.

Looks like a nice place to go.....The walk is good for both if you.

Welcome back to the man who gives the best hugs in the entire world. Missed you

[Gypsy]

Welcome back Zeus, I have missed you and wondered how you guys were doing! Sorry to hear about your parents health, mine are that age too and things seem to be changing rapidly for them. I have been visiting as often as I can if not to just get groceries so I know my mom is eating right. Your puppy is so adorable, glad he's got you moving regularly!

[CPT]

The Crazy Dog Guy..haha When is #2 coming? It's nice to hear from you and there has been a big void missing in the forum since you departed. Thanks for checking and nothing but the best for you and your parents!

[DK528]

Love the pics of Gage, zeus! And the "forced" activity is one of my favorite things when I dogsit my sister's dog. I always get lots of steps those days

So glad you are going to keep in touch. Gage is a sweetie!

[ineedajackpot]

Oh the pup is so cute. Nice to see you back.

[tee2green]

Welcome back my friend. Stop in any time you can, kudos for being such a good son, but that's no surprise to any of us who know you. You're a beautiful person, inside and out. Sad that we aren't together in KC again. Lots of great memories there.....especially meeting up with one particularly incredible bibbed gentleman who had a smile on his face the whole weekend!
