Seeing my long-time buddy at the dog park, Thor (and his black Lab, Jackson). He hasn't been out as often as he used to be. His wife was diagnosed with MS this past year and his 92 year old father-in-law now lives with them (mother-in-law died 2 years ago) and going downhill with dementia. So, he and Jack don't come everyday like they used to.
Good to just see him and the pooch, but, he was excited because he and his wife are actually going to Menodocino this coming weekend, just by themselves. Jack and Gramps are covered and his wife has had a time of no flair-ups. He was so excited!
When I see people I know that have all of these types of things going on, I stop and have a talk with myself about just letting the little stuff go. So much is fodder that really doesn't need some of the drama we all can put into it.
Seeing my good friend smiling certainly made me smile today! So glad to hear that his wife is doing fairly well. Oh, and Jackson looked fit and happy, too! Sweet dog, Thor's best pal!!
