A productive trip to Ohio

June 18, 2024  tagged japanese chin / service dog / wheelchair by Veronica Morris (updated 437 days ago)

For the past week, I’ve been in Ohio visiting my parents! My mom has very quickly been developing dementia, so I went to help out with some doctors’ appointments. I also made us several appointments to visit memory care facilities. Of course some of you might remember what happened last […]

Botanical gardens: my favorite part

June 10, 2024  tagged japanese chin / service dog / wheelchair by Veronica Morris

And now we come to my favorite part of the whole adventure—the best fountain! This fountain had a series of jets that shot water over and across a walkway. So by walking down the walkway, you were walking underneath the fountain! The first time I went through the fountain, I […]

Botanical gardens: two fountains and a prairie

June 9, 2024  tagged japanese chin / service dog / wheelchair by Veronica Morris (updated 445 days ago)

Next up in our botanical gardens adventure, we rejoined the main part of the gardens. They have a giant fountain that flows down the middle of the garden, with several jumping fish statues rising above the long, skinny portion of the water. The children’s garden ends at the terminus of […]

Botanical gardens: Children’s garden

June 8, 2024  tagged japanese chin / service dog / wheelchair by Veronica Morris (updated 446 days ago)

On our date to the botanical gardens, Brad and I went to the children’s garden after lunch. The children’s garden is the only part of the gardens that is not paved. But the crushed gravel was packed enough that we could get our wheelchairs on it…well, mostly LOL! The first […]

Closed stores, but still good times

June 7, 2024  tagged golden retriever / japanese chin / service dog / wheelchair by Veronica Morris (updated 448 days ago)

Today Felix and I got together with my friend Sabrina and her Golden Retriever Indy. We were supposed to meet at Joann’s Fabrics, but when I arrived there, the store wasn’t open. Apparently there had been a staffing issue and no one was there to open the store! Sabrina hadn’t […]

X-ray adventure

June 1, 2024  tagged japanese chin / service dog / wheelchair by Veronica Morris (updated 453 days ago)

This morning was supposed to be my first morning back to walking the dogs on my own two legs instead of walking them from my wheelchair. I have now taken four weeks off of walking the dogs! While my hip pain is better, it’s still hurting a little. If I […]

Half off coffee, full on relaxation

May 31, 2024  tagged japanese chin / service dog by Veronica Morris (updated 455 days ago)

Today Starbucks had a 50% off deal, so I took Felix and we headed out there for lunch. Unfortunately the app was not working. I prefer to order in the app so I don’t have to talk with anyone. Especially now that my hearing aid is broken! Luckily the person […]
