MementosYoko just mentioned that it's been one year since her dog Buck became a member of her family. YAY!
It's timely because there was something I was thinking about last night in regards to pets: like any living thing, you never know how much time you will have with them. And when it comes to pets, their lives are so terribly short that it seems like they are gone really quickly.
I don't have nearly enough pictures of Bill (or Norton) doing things that were unique to them. I don't have pictures of Bill on the wood fort in the yard that he loved so much. I don't have pictures of Bill on the big boulder in our yard that he loved so much. I don't have pictures of Bill slipping his head trough the rungs of the stairway like he like to do and which made me laugh. I do thankfully have pictures of Norton sitting on the wood beams that span the space above our living room.
Anyway, for all of you who have pets that you love and that love you back and make you smile and laugh and do things that are unique to them and that highlight their personality, I suggest you take pictures, lots of them, doing those fun, crazy, eccentric, unusual and unique things that make you love them. Do it. Do it now. |

JiltedOK, so get this, the British guys that I wrote about here are selling the inn and moving to the coast or something. I haven't talked to them lately so I don't know what their plans are. It's hard not to feel a little miffed that they're doing this. When the state department gave them the shaft, a lot of people from our town stood by them and went to bat for them. We wanted them here and we wanted what they have to offer. But now that they're leaving I feel like our efforts are being down graded. I don't know, it's like the wife that supports a husband struggling to make a career for himself while she supports him and when he finally succeeds he leaves. |
