No. You still have your memories - you've been sharing some of them with us. The mementos are gone, but the memories are still with you. You don't need to have them physically, though it would be nice, they are in your head where no one and nothing can ever remove them again.

Wow. I'm sorry this happened. I cannot even imagine the disappointment you felt. However, Mr. laurie is not to blame. It was a matter of time and unforeseen occurance. If you really must blame someone, then it was Teenage Laurie, but alas, he didn't have the same adult brain Mr. laurie has...

Yes, yes, yes! That's something I've gleaned over time, yet I still sometimes forget because it doesn't come up very often, and hasn't fully implanted itself into my brain. I tend to offer options, but with big things, it has worked out better a couple of times when I took the reigns, said "This...

I went to Youtube to look for a video I had seen before about the umbrellas, couldn't find it, but I did fine "8 minutes of people slipping on the same patch of ice"...DELIGHTFUL! :roflmao::roflmao::roflmao: Ahh, it's the simple things. Tater's gonna wake up to yet another of the ridiculous YT...

LMAO! You're right about that, it is freckin windy over there sometimes! We had to cuddle up, arms looped, to make it back to the car and not get blown off a pier.:eek: Yes, I suppose it probably does happen more often in the UK than down here in the South. What a pity for me!:D I've only ever...

I cannot thank you three enough for replying, it's already starting to make more sense!:hug: I am getting a better idea of who gets what, when, and what for and am able to match it up to services in the US that I am much more familiar with. SERPS sounds pretty similar to Social Security and ESA...

@Sighs Aww...I'm sending him an imaginary bear hug! :hug: I think Tater is actually the same, doesn't enjoy being photographed (and okay, yeah...not super photogenic, you have to take a lot to end up with a few gems:confused: but that's true of me too LOL), but he is big into soldiering on and...

@Sighs Are all your pics of him taken while he was unawares? May I ask what his aversion is?

I agree with what everyone has already said - it's up to you and there is no wrong answer. Probably both options point to dragons; the hurt of leaving him now or hardships in the future that, hopefully wouldn't be as bad as this one, but they would be work and upset emotions all the same. Take...

Okay, I've got another one... When I took pictures of Tater, as in planned posed pics in front of some pretty scenery, he would always stand straight up, hands by his side, turned a bit to the side, chin raised, straight faced, and looking off into the distance! LOL!!! After this happened...

That is dangerous! LOL My DQ is very close, too. The old one in town burnt down last year and they just reopened last week in a better/more convenient part of town. Now it's half a mile from my house...I fear my weight will balloon! Haha!

@Neverthesame A pint? Amateur!:D

Tater doesn't mind his or my own hands being in our pockets, but I know he worked hard to undo his training. I told him that aside from keeping his back very straight when he walks, he doesn't scream "soldier." He thinks he sticks out like a sore thumb and the "enemy" can spot him from a mile...

I LOVED Lisa Frank! LOL! Sounds like a dream job for him. Yeah, that's gonna be an awkward week. :confused:

Moose Tracks or Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough!:hungry: Novelty - Snickers ice cream bars. From Dairy Queen - I love the Georgia Mud Fudge blizzard...OMG.:inlove: Tater's is Mint Chocolate Chip.

Tater hasn't seen me crazy yet, but I have told him about it the couple of times I fly into a rage. Doesn't happen too terrible often, ironically enough, I did had an absolute freakout yesterday. I. Was. Livid. I was shaking, panting, dizzy, wanted to punch a hole (or a dozen) in the wall...

I was wondering if anyone has much knowledge about these various...I don't even know what they are...services? Departments? My vet has tried to explain, but I am just not getting it. Seems like we're talking about at least 2 separate and distinct payments/groups here - ESA and SERPS, that he has...

Calm the f down! :D Seriously, that is a toughie and so odd that he'd buy his own ticket and then hang out at work...will he actually be paid for being there? Sorry it's stressing you out already. Not sure there is really anything anyone can say that you don't already know...don't worry about...

LOL I was looking and looking for the post you quoted me on, thinking I was missing the first several replies to this thread. D'oh! :giggle: Point of fact, Tater mowed and "strimmed" again, to which I responded, "What? Has it been a month already???" :D Good thing we can both take the teasing or...

That is a tough one, but it sounds like you're going in with your eyes open this time. You're more self aware and probably better prepared to pull out if you sense it's going in a bad direction. All you can do is try. Good luck! I hope you find the right woman and that it happens soon (or as...

@ground crew I think you may be putting too much emphasis on your own physicality. If you're happy with your abs and concerned about you fitness, that is great, but you should do those things for you. If a woman is only interested in you for your muscles (or money), there's a good chance she's...

@Owlatwar I understand agree with everything you said. It's all backwards and driven by money. It's such a shame but, unfortunately, I really don't see it getting better any time soon.

It seems to me that we (the supporters) are completely enamored with our partners...sometimes to an unhealthy degree because we give some completely bad eggs extra leeway because they have PTSD - which maybe means in extreme cases we'd stick around longer than if there was no PTSD involved. In...

Ha! Cute. First time Tater started talkin about the left-footers I had to hit up the search page...yet again. LOL I've definitely expanded my trivia knowledge since meeting him. I like foot tattoos. I've planned on utilizing that space for a while, but haven't gotten around to it yet. One day...

Whoops! I forgot to address this. I was gonna say I'll send you his email and you can tell him. LOL!:p
