Tonight's picture was taken in December of 2005. We went to Boston for Christmas to spend it with Peter's family. While there, it snowed! We took Mattie for a walk by the pond and that trip he got to play in the snow, sled, and even build a snowman. Mattie gravitated to the colors red and orange, which is therefore no surprise that these colors now represent Mattie's Foundation.
Quote of the day: Here’s the thing: every loss is valid. And every loss is not the same. You can’t flatten the landscape of grief and say that everything is equal. It isn’t. ~ Megan Devine
It was another whirlwind of a day. It is 9:30pm, and I am still working on one thing or another. I took my dad to the doctor this morning, to check his A1C. It is my hope that we have his sugar under control and he doesn't need to be on diabetes meds. As every med he has tried so far has produced horrific side effects.
After the appointment, I got my parents back in the car and then I took them out for soup. Once home, Sunny wanted attention, and after dealing with laundry and other chores, Sunny and I went for a walk. While walking, he finally had a bowel movement, and I was able to collect a specimen to bring back to the vet today. More running around. I came home and worked on bill paying and other issues, and then by 7pm, I scrambled to make dinner.
Of course what I know is tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow, will be more of the same!
