Tonight's picture was taken in August of 2004. Mattie was two years old! I took him to Los Angeles that week, for his annual trip to see my parents. As you can see, Mattie found my sandals, decided to put them on and was clomping around the house! Got to love that smile and his spirit. I miss Mattie, his presence in my life, and no matter what I am going through, remembering his existence and honoring our bond and connection will always be my number one priority.

Tonight I went out to bring the garbage to the curb. While outside, a couple was out walking their dog. They came over to talk with me. Naturally I wanted to meet their pooch. The couple clearly knew my house, and toured it when there was an open house in 2021. They spoke specifically about aspects of my house, which caught my attention. They then commented on my neighbor, who is doing an extensive renovation. I had no comments. However, what caught my attention is this couple deemed that I should be very happy because of the house I own. You know the statement.... you can't judge a book by its cover? Again, I wasn't going to get into it with these two, because most people couldn't possibly know the hell I live with each day.
But this couple is correct. When we bought our house together, the notion was this was going to be another chapter in our life together. For the life of me I would never have imagined what has happened to me and how my life is practically in ashes. I have crashed and burned and I don't see much hope for the future.
