Yesterday we had a misty rain all day. Last night the geavy stuff moved in with some high winds in some areas. This morning everything is under water with more raiin coming down. The girls didn't wastes any time doing business and coming back in.
Gary I am sorry to hear about Dash's condition. It is sad to watch a friend go down slowly and knowing there isn't much you can do except be a comfort to them. All of us who have had pets over the years have experienced this process and it doesn't get easier. Each day I watch Mama go through her struggles and try to keep her as comfortable as I can. She still has the heart of a younger dog but her body is wearing out fast. Each morning she is so eager to go outside for a walk, but once outside she lags behind and sometimes when she has had enough she will sit and wait for us to come back toward the house. Then when we get close she will jump up and do the dance and join us on our final leg of the walk.
Sue bought some stuffed toys for the girls yesterday. Mama has taken hers and carries it everywhere she goes, even to bed with her last night. She is such a care giver and watches over all the family just like a mother would watch over her children.
I don't know how we are going to get along without her, but I know that day is coming soon, So until then we will love her and care for her and thank God every day that she has been such a wonderful part of our lives.
