My Extensive Collection Part 4

[kirbyloverdan]

Yes Colby

I had no idea who I was bidding against I just wanted this vacuum really bad . I lost another NIB Elite that went for $125ish and I said if I can at least save $50.00 from Sears I was saving money
Turns out I saved $420.00 from regular price and $252.00 from this weeks sale price .

Why do you have to wait until the fall to take the vac out of the box and try it? It would take what...all of 10-15 minutes of your time?

because I just have time to snap a picture with my iPhone before I put them away then I can post directly from my phone in between house sales and its summer and I only have time to vacuum with whats together no time to mess with other vacuums yet . Fall is when my business slows up a bit .

I know all to well about being busy but in funeral business summer is when we slow down and we get busy in winter/fall. In summer it can be a week or 2 before you get a call, unless in a big city, but in winter or fall one day you are not busy the next day there are 2 or 3 calls.

Kool Trevor

Wow our businesses are opposite maybe that's why it slows down for me in fall and winter because people are passing away lol nah it's holidays and the cool weather keep people inside except those who must buy a new home during that time . This has been a very good spring and summer seems to keep going in about another month it should start to let up a bit .

After that I have many new toys just waiting for me to open and try out
Plus by November I should have two brand new 100th anniversary Kirby's
to enjoy .

I am so sorry for your loss Dan. My German shepherd is truely my best friend. I can't imagine life with out her

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Thanks

Mike it's hard but I must go on , I just gave the last of her food and treats to a friend I met while bike riding . A dog named Ruby who is a Huricane Katrina survivor will enjoy my beloved Kirby's food that
she left behind it was so hard packing her food up but I know another dog will enjoy it so it helps me a bit . All of her toys and stuff are still out around the house I just can't put them away just yet .

Thanks again

Dan

Dan, so sorry to hear of the death of your dog Kirby. It's never easy losing a cat or dog, they are family & just like the son or daughter you never had.

Dan,


 


My deepest condolences on the loss of Kirby. Having gone through this myself in April, I know how much it hurts. She will live forever in your heart and I hope you're able to gather some comfort from that.


 


Best,


Tom

Kirbyloverdan, get yourself another doggie right away. Don't delay even one day. Go to the shelter and let one steal your heart again. You will never forget Kirby, but a new doggie will find a new way to fill your heart and your life. It is inevitable a new doggie will make you smile and laugh like Kirby did.

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Thanks so

Much guys at this time I am going to wait to see how I feel about another dog .
I own a home on 26 acres and I also own an ocean front condo and they do not allow
pets . I go between both places but sleep at my condo every night so a dog right now
won't work for me although I LOVE dogs I know that will have to wait until I see what life
has in store for me .

Dan I could not imagine life without my two furry friends. They are my life. You are in my thoughts and hopefully with time, your sorrow will heal and maybe you will find a new furry friend to help fill the void that is missing within your heart.

 

[kirbyloverdan]

Thanks Derek

I really appreciate that it makes me feel good knowing that there are some very kind people on this site .
We shall see what the future holds for me in the dog department but for now I can't imagine having another dog Kirby was an amazing daughter to me . My family always had dogs Kirby was the first all mine puppy that grew into the BEST dog ever .
