Rainy day in these here parts. I wish for a warm spring rain, but today alas is a "it could be snow almost" cold rain. Spring is coming but at a glacial pace. When it does arrive, it will be here for 2.4 weeks and then it will be hot hot hot for the next 5 months.
Hmmm, not much to discuss today. Miss K feeling better after the 250th ear infection she's had this school year. Yes I exaggerate, but it feels like that at least. She had the equivalent of a Denny's Big Slam breakfast yesterday, this is how I know she's feeling better. She is eating us out of house and home. I am very very afraid for the teen years!
On a sad note, Big C's sister had to put their dog down this week. He was 14. He lived a good life, the last years a bit hard on him, but a good life nonetheless.
These furry friends are in our lives for too short a time. It brought memories of our girl flooding back, how the seizures took her from us long before her time. They all leave such big paw prints on our hearts. They ask for nothing but a little food, some clean water and a warm place to sleep, and give back love that is bigger than any human could offer.
I think our boy knew something was up the other night. Wasn't sure why we all had tears in our eyes. There wasn't huge sobs, just a melancholy feeling in the house. Our pup somehow understood, he sat close to Big C and kept an eye on him most of the night. Somehow sensing he as a fur kid could possibly ease the pain of losing a life that was considered family, even if only a canine life.
Easter is around the corner, and with it the pressure to visit every relative and family member, plus do yard work and other weekend type things. It is nearly worse than Christmas.
We have to take our taxes in to get done too. Yuck. We could do our own…I know we could and save ourselves the 100 bucks to have someone else do it…but, let me think about it for a second…that'd be a no. Can't do it, never have, probably never will. I hate that we have to do it, because in this day and age I think they have a pretty good handle on who is doing what and making what, but whatever. I will comply with the law and have this necessary piece of evil done by the end of April.
I think that's it. Life is pretty ordinary, which is not a bad thing.
Til next time, HJ Heinz is going to merge with Kraft foods, does that mean that KD will now be sold with the ketchup already in the box? Makes you think right?
