Play and Play

Here is the gallery.

We had a number of dogs depart today. More tomorrow. We had Ella at the vet as she was bleeding so we thought maybe pyo, that is rather significant. You can lose a dog to pyo. We are not sure what it is but after much $$ and xrays etc, we figure she may be in a split heat. She is on antibiotics. We need to watch her closely but she ate tonight. 

Had a friend die recently. Have another one that is terminal. She celebrated being able to sit up on her own today. Another is fighting a battle with cancer - round 3. My knee is screaming today and well there is more but you don't want to know more. I told you the easy stuff relatively so. This too shall pass.

Plus one of our dog family - a family I genuinely love has covid and well, I am worried about them. But their dog is having a glorious time. So they can concentrate on themselves and smile when they see their baby playing like a play monkey. 

All and all the dogs bring us smiles. They play dance. They french kiss you when you least expect it when laughing. Had that happen today - yikes. I know close my mouth. That was Misty cause she can't help herself. She is the same dog that comes up to me at 2am wagging her tail so hard with a toy in her mouth batting me to ask me to play. That gal and Cinnamon has the play in them. They are happy happy dogs always. We all need that, don't you think?

Last night, when I got out of bed for my bathroom break, the dogs must have moved real fast before I got back in bed to take my spot. Were they telling me something? All I could do is laugh and try to push them out of the way to make room for me. I must admit, I was still scrunched up. Am I a fool or do I simply love the dogs that much. Maybe a little of both.

That's my craziness for the day. The dawgs are having fun and now I must go hang out with them as Nathan needs to bring Katie home.

Thinking of all your friends, yes, it is a very difficult time. Prayers sent to all of them.
Hope Ella recovers without futher complications.
And yes, Leo does the same with me 'hey you, move over, mommy needs her pillow'.

Overwhelming but life.

Leo is a special guy!
